I agree with you on this one.
Quick way around it that was told to me is to use teleport friend on them.
well they definitely don't just get stuck on the drones as mine get stuck on stuff even when i don't have them upgraded to the point that they get drones.
teleport friend dos seem to be the best solution at the moment but its far from ideal (the assemble team power is also good but on occasion I've had 2 bots appear in the same space and get stuck together)
As to the AI cant day I've had any problems there yes they some time run into melee but i see that as the price i have to pay for having all that fire power
Agreed tp is a quick way around it, but Ive got my mm's build done how I want it and don't want to have to waste both a respec and a power to make sure my bots don't get stuck on fin air, im sure its fixable and just wish they would fix it the bugs been around for along time now, all that down time we had with bases and no fix for bots to tell the truth not to sure the last time I saw a proper bug fix patch and stability patch.
A suggested fix on US forums was to make the seeker drones intangible, so everyone could pass right through them, Castle seemed to like the idea
Icelock - Ice/Storm Controller
Command Bot 1 - Bot/Traps MM
Traps FFG has a similar problem.
My Bots MM has it, and it keeps blocking doorways etc,
All MM pets (and sub-pets) should really be pushable, and also not spawn on the MM themselves.

Don't no about all of you but I for one would like to have this particular bug fixed its really annoying and am sure its not to hard for the devs to fix, I'm talking about the bug were Protector bots get stuck on nothing they just stand in one spot unable to move until if your lucky they decide to jump.
Ive been told they get stuck on the drones they summon and if they get round to fixing them I would rather a real fix don't want the ability taken away as a quick fix.
While there at it wouldn't mind an AI update for bots so they stop running into melee range and getting themselves killed.

From the Patch notes for Issue 15 open beta :
[ QUOTE ]
Protector Bot Seeker Drones no longer have any collision at all.

If I'm interpreting this correctly, Protector bots should no longer get stuck on their Seeker drones, which was the issue previously.

Just saw the i15 notes myself and it does seem like the notes state that the protector bots getting stuck on drones has been fixed, took a very long time but if its done thats great
