Welcome to the Constructron-Continued wiki!

Settings explained:

Delay before starting new jobs(secs) You can use this setting if you are designing blueprints and do not want a Constructron to come along and build your work in progress. An alternative is to use /ctron disable construction to pause jobs until you re-enable them again.

Number of robots This setting sets the amount of robots to request and keep in the trunk of a Constructron for use.

Robot item name This setting can be used to change the default construction robot to a modded one, like bees. Please note that the internal item name must be specified.

Maximum job time(mins) Not used currently.

Maximum workers per job This setting controls how many Constructrons get assigned to a single job. The is no real upside or downside to setting this lower or higher though if you are deconstructing storage then it might be better to set this higher.

Enable debug logging Enables logging of actions and events within the mod. It can assist with debugging a problem but otherwise should be left off as it consumes UPS.

Use easy recipes This setting can be used to convert your pre-existing Spidertrons to Constructrons. Some mods also disable/remove some items that are required to build Spidertrons so in them cases, enable this setting.

Construction jobs Toggles construction jobs. Alternatively you can use /ctron enable|disable construction

Rebuild jobs Toggles rebuild jobs. Alternatively you can use /ctron enable|disable rebuild

Deconstruction Jobs Toggles deconstruction jobs. Alternatively you can use /ctron enable|disable deconstruction

Upgrade Jobs Toggles upgrade jobs. Alternatively you can use /ctron enable|disable upgrade

Repair Jobs Toggles repair jobs. Alternatively you can use /ctron enable|disable repair

Repair at(1-100%) This setting sets the threshold of health before a repair job is triggered.

Allow landfill (experimental!) Toggles construction of landfill. Although this is marked as experimental, it is generally okay to allow.. Just don't go wild and place landfill in the middle of a lake and expect a Constructron to path to it. Alternatively you can use /ctron enable|disable landfill

Alert threshold(secs) This setting adjusts how long until a map marker is placed on the Constructron if the Constructron is waiting for it's logistic requests to be fulfilled.

Deconstruct ground items This setting toggles items that are dropped on the ground and deconstructed to be picked up by Constructrons. It is recommended to disable this with mods like Bot attrition which is included in Space Exploration as each time a bot fails, it resets the delay timer before starting new jobs.

Enable rocket powered constructron This setting toggles the space Constructron designed for flying in space. It is highly recommended for Space Exploration. This specific Constructron cannot be used on nauvis and surfaces like it.

entities processed per tick This setting adjusts how many entities are processed per tick. Overall it can be left as is. Higher numbers coupled with bigger builds will result in performance hits but on the upside it will process and assign very large jobs(tens of thousands of entities) more effectively.
