Confirmation on Capital Ships Drones

Post by ADAM79 » Tue, 13. Jun 17, 15:35

Hi guys! I've recently come back to XR and, since i've got a bunch of money, i tried to equip an Arawn with 70 drones. Light and heavy fighters and bombers drones.

Now... i was wondering how fun could it be to see a swarm of drones attack a target but... i discovered that this isn't going to happen! Seems that the Arawn launch only 4-5 random (?) drones every bunch of mins.

Now i only want to know if there is something that i've done wrong or if there is something that i can do to achieve that result (even with mods).

Thanks in advance! ;)

my DO Script launches all Combat Drones on Enemy Contact, but currently uses them mostly for defense.

Ich mache keine S&M-Auftragsarbeiten, aber wenn es fragen gibt wie man etwas umsetzen kann helfe ich gerne weiter ;)

I wont do Script&Mod Request work, but if there are questions how to do something i will GLaDly help ;)

tbh drones only really shine in ooz combat
opinion obviously


ooz your ships strength is based on ALL the drones it carries
ooz your drones dont need to undock to be counted

iz drones are limited to the skill of your DO
iz docked drones are useless drones
iz your launched drones are targeted and insta destroyed with ease by s/m enemy ships

Useful infos! Thanks!

I have to say that this game will really shine if only we could have the option to manually flight capital ships... like in the old Xs :'''''(

Just imagine how wonderful could be to do that and see swarm of drones launched at the press of a key.... :''''(

I use the Cap Ships Bridge Mod from it's birth... but, it only allow you to walk inside a Cap Ship Bridge when you land on the Cap Ship. It doesn't allow you to control the Cap Ship... :'''(
