I dont know anything about the freight drones, if they are just like normal ships then yeah they should work. Try it and let me know what happens!lordmuck wrote:Most excellent MY mistake was not having a ship as a proxy, on this subject would fright drones work ? say I had 10 freight drones would be better than 1 / 2 m3's ? what would be the best idea ?
Thanks a lot
PS currently my magnatar(SP?) is using 1 m3 to supply 3 mystrals but it has to jump out and in for each mystral. Still good idea and works but its a shame it does not get 3 of X part (as its 3 mystrals). this is why I ask about the fright drones anyway
thanks again for a cool script / mod
Like I mentioned, this script is perhaps the most complex script I've written. I designed it to be as intelligent as possible (which of course just means more things can go wrong)...
You can add more than one supply drone proxy ship. If you assign more Supply ships then it will use them as well so it has to make less trips. Like I say, I always used Argon Discoverers, since they carry M-class cargo (so can equip jumpdrives), are realllly cheap.
You can add multiple target ships, all in different sectors if you want.
You can run the command even once fully equipped to re-equip with ammo etc - the Auto prep ship will only perform the functions it needs to.
Plus of course the AL option for Repair Laser fabs. A Magnetar equipped with Repair lasers running this script is a salvagers wet dream. I think there is even a command that appears to "Add all damaged ships" to the target list if you enable the "Repair" task option.
