Closed Robots occupying housing plots?

I decided to build a robot-only heavy industry settlement at Starlight Drive-in. Based on other threads about robot-only settlements, it looked like I didn’t need any residential plots, so I left them out of my initial build. Well, I recently decided that I wanted some shops, so I built a few residential plots to support human settlers, laid down some commercial plots, turned on my beacon, and walked away. Came back a few game days later, and I had houses but no humans. Checked who owned the lots and it turns out they’re all owned by my robots. Is this supposed to happen? Do I need to destroy all my bots, wait for the humans to take over, and then re-build my robots?

In case it matters: I’m on X-Box and I have the latest version of SS.
 
Did Starlight actually get any human settlers?
Thank you

So I was an idiot and forgot to check if I had actually powered up the beacon, and it turns out I hadn’t. However, it still appears as though I’m dealing with the same issue as before. I do have a single human settler to run my bar, but all of the residential plots are still assigned to robots.
 
For now you will have to manually assign the 'HUMAN SCUM', sorry my robot came out, to one of the Residential plots. I'll have to do some digging on why the robots are being assigned to the plots.
Thank you
 
Definitely a bug - though I'm not sure how this would have cropped up as it's been fixed since the first Sim Settlements patch ever. Do you have any mods that affect robots in some way?

I don’t think I do. The only mods I can think of that might affect robots are the unofficial patch and unlocked settlement objects. Everything else either adds new objects (mostly settlement building stuff like Snappy Housekit) or tweaks Dogmeat.

The only other thing I can think to add is that I turned off dynamic needs. I’ve just switched it back on to see if that affects anything.
 
Closing this thread and moving it to Archive as it has been over 30 days since the OP last responded. If you have a similar issue please check the forums for a report that is newer. If you cannot find one please create a new thread and mark it with the Bug tag.

Thank you
