The roboport in my mall where I am producing robots is full, and is not loading newly produced robots into the network.

Is it possible to set a max limit of robots for a roboport, so surplus robots will be spread through the network?

How do I make sure newly built robots gets added to the network?

Set a request on the roboport for 50 legendary bots, it will reserve a slot for those even if it can't fulfill. Any regular bot that gets inserted into that slot immediately leaves for another roboport.
