@ Lazerath: Also see this leading to a dev reply. Please don't post the same issue in 3 different places or you probably won't get to see any coherent answers.

Oh, just had a little reminder that I'd hope to see. Can we please NOT destroy the drones in the ship just 'couse that damn Drone launcher goes boom? I don't mind drones going puff but I don't like it to go this way + it's painstaking to refill all damn ships (both under my command and stations/patrols) with drones after a battle WHERE I was in the system. This just gets abit worse when ships don't have automatic replenish drones command or alike.
Is it possible to get that into the game?

This is a very bad idea for one reason. Drones contribute to boarding resistance. If enemy drones don't go "boom" as you say, some ships would be immune to boarding.

If Egosoft prevents the drones from being destroyed, then they need to also prevent them from contributing to boarding resistance.

Hi,

this seems to be a misunderstanding. Drones don't "go boom" in a ship which I am about to board. Even with the drone ramp gone they still exist, sometimes even survive the boarding. I think dholmstr refers to own ships being damaged.

Yes I was refering to own ships. But it shouldn't be an issue for the boarding strenght, I mean just put drone strenght to zero when the launcher goes boom. Then again why the bloody hell do drones even add in the first place.

Hello...

Anyone reported that nasty bug that you DO NOT GET YOUR MONEY BACK, when a ship is destroyed and you ordered a repair? Beyond nasty is this....

Why not withdraw the money AFTER repair??

@ Einheit 101: Well did you contact the shipyard early enough to cancel the repair slot after the loss of the ship? If not, then they cannot use that slot for another customer and so the yard would lose income unless they keep your repair deposit. :wink: (Just kidding!)

As KZavi pointed out, version 4.30 is the latest. You also asked this question in the wiki thread. Please don't post the same question in multiple threads. Since this is an old thread it will now be locked. If you want information on the latest versions, see this thread:

Have a great idea for the current or a future game? You can post it in the [L3+] Ideas forum.

X4 is a journey, not a destination. Have fun on your travels.
