My bots are translocating fine, BUt there is one issue. I have a lift exit on one side of a cliff, a transloc dest on the otherside and a lift exit for that transloc dest on the other side. All properly tagged (I think). But the bots use the lift exit and trans loc dest on the other side. Meaning they translocate about 3 feet. When they are on the one side they will translocate over fine. But how do I prevent them from using the lift exit on the other side? The lift exit on the other side should be only used as an exit for the trans loc dest. Not a spot to throw the thing. Know what I mean?

I tried setting the exit as a one way path but that did not work.

Thanks

the easiest way to do this and I often use it a lot is to make the translocdest off the ground and put the lift exit right under it but about double the distance off the ground as when you place it, like about 64 units or so. Then the bots will xlocate, hit the lift exit on the way down and continue on. Now that the destination lift exit is too high off the ground to go back the other direction the bots won't go that way.

Now you don't have to mess with one way paths which only seem to work in halls.
