Hi Qon, glad to see you...

Yes, that's not a mistake, the assembly language robot has no fab instructions yet.

At this time, it's mainly an educational feature. We don't know yet the role it will play in the "adventure" game.

You can get it through the use of the "school mode" feature.

After activating the school mode (http://www.blackvoxel.com/view.php?node=1560), open the inventory and press "J" key to get plenty of it.
