Drone Wars Competition

[Drakkart]

pattern analysis of the AI dogfights might actually be crucial for drone designs... so i'd really suggest to not skip this step in order to find concepts of leading to designs which will be even more successful than others.

Hmm I see we're all sandbagging...

 

[Drakkart]

Just a little reminder "entries must be submitted latest at Friday the 18th of march 2016 12:00 GMT (Noon)"

as i am writing this, that is 28 days 9 hours and 44 minutes left.
Happy tinkering and Good luck!

Nice... time to reveal the ship-hive I've been working for a long time, hoping that artificial intelligence would improve...

 

[Sgtwisky]

oowwww looks fun. I needed an excuse to make my drones more efficient. Count me in

 

[MrDeez]

minimum 25 my drone is 14. Maybe its a hint they are to small...
Anyway working on a little bizarre project atm and wondering if its fine to submit 2 entries? Might just be 1 in the end anyway but still

Also after watching and testing some design i want to spoil a few funny things regarding AI:

 

[Drakkart]

well they might eventually have to fight each other... but if you wish to build more than one Drone fleet and deploy mechanism go ahead.

 

[kikaha]

ok i'm in.
Now lets go check my drones, where did i put that duster already ..?


Wich mass shall i use ? In build mode i have a mass of 123.9 and in the ship catalog its 69.2.

So wich one is the good one ?

 

[AtraUnam]

Build mode mass is correct. catalog is just block count/10

 

[Drakkart]

the buildmode mass with everything attached.

 

[kikaha]

Good ! My drones are ready and deadly. Only the rack to build and i'll post the lot in community contents, probably today.
her's a teaser.

Colors may change.

 

[Sgtwisky]

those are some sexy looking drones.

 

[kikaha]

Sexy and nasty

 

[Drakkart]

interesting design indeed...

 

[kikaha]

The lock-on type is missing here (not done yet). I'll submit a rack with 2 of each kind (998 mass in total).

 

[kikaha]

Ok here's my (first ?) entry to the competition.
Xanth Drones rack

Cheers! Nice new look. I need to resist my urge to post my drone yet. I have not finish the rack yet and not sure yet if doing 2 models in 1 rack. thinking like 8 big and 10 smaller or something like that. nice to people posting

 

[GalactusX]

this is my small contribution to the competition, this is the drone bay With all the drones ... 4 Ion drones, 4 rapid cannon and four lock-ON missiles.

All the drones can be launched one-by-one or in diferents groups, all is customizable.
