Construction ship without drones

Post by some1 »

I cannot buy drones (construction or freight) for my construction ship. Kinda useless without them...

I was trying to send an engineer with construction drones - no luck... Grrr.

i have built stations and completed trades with no drones at all, it just seems to take a hell of a lot longer. which suggests cargo lifters and construction drones could be removed and time to complete reduced until they can add them in a workable state

1. solution.

Go to a different shipyard and try to equip there. Just click "modify ship" when talking to the ship dealer then "equip drones"


2. solution


There is a drone factory in Ascendancy->Five ways and Lookout Alpha-> Wreckswill.

Buy the drones, sell them to the shipyard. Then Equip through the ship dealer. "Container" ship needed but a constructor can handle that.

3. solution

Board a Rahannas that's trading these drones. usually next to the stations mentioned above. This is needed when PMC is hostile towards you in the Plot.

Construction ship is not able to launch (at least) cargo drones since the 1.17 patch.

Construction ship is building the station without the drones, but very slowly. Also NPC ships had no issues to trade with it without my construction ship having any cargo drones.
