Robots need some kind of budget that caps how powerful a script can be.

Ideas:

Memory system similar to Bitburner, where each function a robot can perform adds to a total memory usage, restricting how complex scripts can get.
Compute system that restricts how many actions can be performed in a single tick. If a robot tries to perform too many actions, they roll over into consecutive ticks until the queue is exhausted and the robot's loop function gets run again.
