first idea, sounds good but itd be punishing a large variety of designs while others would simply ignore it entirely. I think it might be easier to acheive something similar by adding a power cost to docking/undocking. Then you would have to pay to undock a larger number of entities at once...

So earlier today I made a gif showing off a view of the new savannah designs...

So the new rails are in... actually have been for a few days now just haven't had the time to upload stuff xP Our drone-gineers have determined that by rotating along the shorter axis we can stuff even more drones into the same space than we could before! Amazing how technology works, and...

In the name of Drone tech, progress shall continue until the beatings improve! err.... wait.. that didn't sound right. Anywho! Gif of my newest drone launch technique using the new rails... comments? questions? absurdities?

So after some R&D i've come up with a new method for launching drones... several new ones actually. First up is the Auto-rail. I did have a working one on my latest Marsh G2 build, however it turns out this was bugged due to a flaw in the Rails. Appearently rails do NOT like having multiple...

It appears there's a bug in the rails with the current G2 version. This release will allow complete drone launch using the old style(just updated to rails). It's a shotgun type launch, all or nothing, right away immediate sort of thing. In the near future I hope to complete a "rail shaker"...

That gif... is that super speed? if not how'd you manage to get your racks to move so quick? :/ Mine are super slow(enhancers did nothing even with 1k of them).. so I went with a different method. ...I moved the drones instead of the rack. :p

With the advent of rail tech, our drone launching capabilities are better than ever. In addition to adding wireless hot-bar logic, the rails now auto launch drones without failure or messy clustering. Change log; New Rails with improved capacity! Exterior details added Interior details added...

So... designs have been flitting about my head lately and a lot of stuff has gone on. I've made a new airlock design, yet to implement it though. It needs to be compacted a bit more to fit properly. It needs a bit more work before I can stuff it into the Marsh and call it ready for the next...

The Rails Update: Slowly but surely I am updating all designs to include this new feature that has finally been released. So far the Marsh is updated with; new ACTUAL wireless logic, to launch drones without build-mode hopping or menu hopping as it was before A brand new rail system, which...

idk about barely any work, take a look at these before & afters of my marsh racks. New on the left, old on the right. Better one here... ...and here. There was a lot of forced wasted space on the old racks. Now you can skip mass enhancers and connect anything to a single block, which in...

in doing so you'll probably notice you can fit your drones into a smaller space than usual. which is great for the numbers boost. kinda almost regretting having to modify an entire fleet of drones, fleet of racks, and another fleet of ships but, ce la vie. quick note though! puting more than...

concentric circles, hmm that works. dunno why bht my phone doesn't load the bottom half or so of i mages so i guess i missed the original flower shape. x) i so see that arm being quite useful though, do you have a prototype available for download? im sure keptick and Thalanor could figure it...

function sigma (sum) of frequency x .51 , and frequency. 99 gives a range of values where the current angle is between 0 and some number dictated by w. ... assuming I read that correctly. short form is; two rotator blocks will rotate the cutting beam in a slow spiral shape eating through all...

Indeed, the only counter currently to drones is... moar drones! So if you haven't got any you may want to think about refitting a ship or two to start fielding them. Numbers are generally everything here, but anything below about 40 mass isn't going to pack much of a punch so shoot for 40-80...

see keptick s chaff launcher idea. it should do exactly what you need it for. Sside from that it will depend upon the particular station what you're going to need to do to breach the doors. some are lightly shielded but others will take a capital ship to even scratch their regen. after that its...

To the best of my knowledge there's no video tutorials on such. I do recall at the first page of this thread keptick posted a rack that launched its own drones. The basic premise is fairly simple though, undock your drone and then use either a logic circuit or some other method to fire a push...

Been busy today, despite having to work I still managed a fair amount of design. The ship now has details on the front and rear mounted thrusters. =) The frontal filligree... Rear mounted thrusters... Frontal shot of the rear mounted thrusters... Along with the main thrusters, there's...

Transformer drones, that would be awesome. I'll have to make one of my own as well, can't have the competition one-upping me as it were. ;) On the note of having more drones, I tend to make several models but only use the best. As such you'll see most of my designs field the latest versions...

Some thoughts of mine on this, if that's alright with you fellas? :) Ultra low cost drones should take into account the number of docking blocks they will need as well. Being 17 blocks tall uses about 5 blocks. That's more in the heavy drone size range than the expendable low cost range. Try...
