===Foundation Layer===
This bot will help lay all your foundations in your base that is in the logistic network.  It will also not pick up one foundation at a time.

{{IL|Scout}} or {{IL|Dashbot}} + {{IL|Fabricator}}

Settings:
* The Fabricator is set to make infinite {{IL|Foundation Plate|Foundation Plates}}.
* Lock one inventory slot to {{IL|Metal Bar|Metal Bars}}.
* Lock the remaining inventory slots to Foundation Plates.
* Set the Logistic network to Network 4 (or any network that is not being used).
* Ensure the bot can Deliver items, Supply items, and Request items.
* Also, have one storage that stores Metal Bars to also be on Network 4 in addition to your normal networks, and Supply Items is available.
* Make sure no other building is making Foundation Plates on your normal network.

This automated bot will make it's own Foundation plates, so it will have always have full stacks, and will automatically fulfill construction orders to make foundations from its inventory.  If it's out of Metal Bars for production, it will pick up items itself.
