[Request] Script to fix IZ Attack Drones becoming unresponsive.

Post by Lander1979 »

Desperately need a fix for attack drones becoming unresponsive when in zone. They launch at a target, and once that target has been destroyed (usually by something else) they just stop dead and don't return to their parent ship.

Same with construction drones launched by capital ships during repair. They do not return to dock when the capital ship is ordered to go somewhere else, leaving behind a bunch of unresponsive drones (to add insult to injury, if you destroy them, you lose reputation with civilized factions, EVEN THOUGH THEY ARE YOUR OWN DRONES!)

I think what the game could use is a timeout value for launched drones - so any drone that doesn't return to its parent ship after, say, 5 minutes, will self-destruct.
