@208974618 I've had bots since the package became available. Enhanced all of them to 10 over time. Played with them for months after that with zero problems. Repaired them if I saw they were broken but only if I saw them. Now all my bots are self-destructing. All that work enhancing them and tuning them up is gone in a flash. So frustrating.

Not only that, but I built a brand new house on an empty lot and when I moved my Sims in, there was a cleaning bot flying around that another Sim made. Not a member of that household or anyone who had previously lived on that lot, but a member of a household they don't even know.

I just wonder why I never had a bot explode but suddenly have all but one self-destruct at the same time after the latest update/Eco Living. The latest one that exploded had just been enhanced and tuned up the night before. So not neglected. It's already annoying enough that Level 10 Robotics Sims still hit themselves in the head with the tools four times per enhancement, now all that work and pain was for nothing? Not a fan of this.

    I know this doesn't help with the problem, and I have had the problem too. My bots have disappeared a lot. I have saved a couple rooms in the gallery for download that might at least prevent you from having to constantly rebuild bots, chips and mechanisms. I have one room with one of every kind of bot in it, when I saved the room they were at level ten but if you download it they go down to level one. One room is called "Botmakers salvation" because I had a sim die with about a hundred chips and a hundred mechanisms in their inventory. When they died the items moved to the inventory in build/buy I put them in a room and now you can just buy them and put them in your inventory. 

    I also have a household uploaded called the Bots. It's 7 servos each at upgrade level 10 and they have fulfilled enough aspirations and skills to level 10 to be a great domestic help/nanny. (plus one of the bots had an alien baby so she is part of the family too.)

      You know for the mechanism and robots parts you can cheat by shift click on the robot station and there is an option to get those in big number. Dont remember how many but a lot. Also, I had the same issue for bots, cleaning but turning into scrap, I dont know why. I dont have the robot station on my lot.
