Glad to see I'm not the only one using Cannon Drones ^.^ would that perhaps be a 7x7x7 drone? it seems like a smaller brother of the soul drone.

So... after working on the hangars I decided to give up on making them hexagon shaped. Honestly, it was just too much of a pain in the ass to make an odd symmetry hexagon that was actually symmetrical. As weird as that may sound try it out sometime, they just don't look right.o_O Anywho, I went...

After some experimenting and preparing for the inevitable rail launchers we at Liquid Systems Designs have decided to revisit our original Drone size. The nano-Drone, a simple and cheap drone fitting in at the default dock size of 7 x 7 x 7. So it was after weeks (actually real world months I've...

Your edit: Basically that is what I was getting at with collisions. Whenever I do internal, the drones decide they want to ram things that they really shouldn't be able to... for example, open doors, walls that are miles away from them, other drones they shouldn't be touching, etc. etc. I find...

The collision fest is pretty much the only reason I avoid internal racks now. Tried it a couple times, I mean really tried to make it work but... my poor laptop almost exploded trying to calculate all the collisions involved in that mess. Maybe I'll try again later, but it's doubtful I'll get...

Thalanor Ah, field usage.. yes that would be the dream (with rails), drones quietly drifting smoothly into space... before rapidly engaging enemies. Imagine the possibilities of rail launched skooms, mines, and other non-drones. Rail launched torpedo's anyone? :cool: Will we be able to use...

Dog food inspired... uh.... well......yeah a bit. At this point i'm not sure whether he was attempting to play with it or eat it, but he did have it in his mouth for a bit. Non-random shots do kinda suck on the shotguns/multi-lasers. It's more for missile screening than damage honestly, that's...

Looking forward to real missile HP... and maybe multi-lock missiles... please devs of starmade change heatseekers..... zzzzzzzzzzzz -_-' Actually been removing effects on most of drones to make them ever cheaper. Most no longer use any special effects at all cause... it takes space, it drives...

Hopefully your own missiles don't fly off in crazy directions like my own swarm missiles do.:( Because yeah, they tend to go in whatever direction they feel like, so chaff isn't terribly reliable with that.... In any case some of my latest drones aren't concerned with swarm missiles. Just look...

Gone for a week and I come back to all this lovely drone discussion. =) I should take more programming hiatus' me thinks. Anywhooo... Shotgun Lasers? Or shotgun cannons? cause your own shots CAN hit your own missiles, kinda nerfing the whole ship... Otherwise as long as your ship is reasonably...

Nothing new affects drones as far as I can tell. AI is the same, only real difference that seems meaningful is the trashcan in the inventory... Trash-Drones? We could call them Wall-Eem's. :p

Dzuari, while the soul drone is the standard issue, its entirely missile based. If you're looking for a bit more variety, some special effects like Stop, or you'd like to see how drones have progressed, try out some of mine as well. I've got all the old editions uploaded as well as the new ones...

Glad you asked, there's about a billion different ways to activate drone launches and nobody here seems to have a "best" way. Mostly just personal preference, so I'll try to list as many as I can think of and you can go from there... Trigger Area(s) Pass a core through them as you mentioned...

Generally by "clean up the mess" I was making the assumption that you'd pick up your drones to save on materials rather than leave them floating about. It can be very pricey to do what Thalanor does with 300 some odd drones. Yup, you need to upgrade the drone carrier's max capacity now...

Stop effect was what I had lying around mostly, they've long since been replaced with missiles and single beam comp slave. Also the name apparently has to be changed as a mr. warsong decided to convo me and say that skoom-pedo is implying something naughty. So the name is up for grabs. o_O...

Ideally you could get away with less damage per shot, honestly advanced armor is a bit uncommon to come across with the way crafting is right now. That does depend on your server though, so if you see a lot of people using advanced by all means. I'd recommend you use rockets instead of cannons...

Finally I have the chance to release the updated versions of the Ju Ga mk4, Kabuto mk4, Kuwaga mk4, Locust, Cicada mk3(mk2 was setup but then a previous update nerfed it so I'm skipping it for now..) as well adding to the list the new Gryllos. These have all been updated to the latest version of...
