    Made a recalibration, they've been running fine for 20-30 mins, so the problem seems to be solved.

    yep, but it's kinda tricky.

    Hm...Did you put a limit on how fast the robots make decisions?

    I'm not sure about it, I suspected a flaw in the way I added gold, but then a green one broke too. Maybe the stne moves around too quickly and the two different movement signals break it apart. This would explain why the red one breaks more often.

    Yeah, broke for me too.

    Broke again. Bottom frame just separated and the bot completely stopped.

    What was the cause?

    Thanks for the info, I think I've found the cause.

    After a few minutes, they began emitting smoke pixels and then started breaking apart afterwards.
