juanTNT Launchable Drones mod (V3.4) (Mindustry T1 units)

janiTNT · Apr '22

StaticMask Fixed it, try the new version
(sorry for so much wait for so little content, procastination and roadblocks i cannot simply ignore happens)
i really should just release my main mod some day
or end up like skipydog and not do it, ever

Another update wouldn't hurt right?

janiTNT · Apr '22

Updated the mod again (twice), have fun with the new features!

3.0 might include 5x7 launchers, (or bigger) with bigger drones, but that could take a while

Fun fact: Ion Beam Prisms can accept shots from beam drones, altrough they can only shoot a split second, its still possible

Gonna check this out when I have the time, I feel like the large green glowing ones will be good for plasma weapons

Its been a long, long time...

how have you been?

(i have been advised to use this thread even if it is post-one-month old)

This update brings:

The Huge Drone launcher:

4x7, Gorgeous.

Holding two types of drones:

Warcruiser (Laser spam shooter + BIG SHOT enjoyer)

Bomber (Can hold both EMP's and Nukes, but can be set to only hold one of those.)

And the Chassi and Hull factories needed for them.

Kroom's Forge range improvement buff can now apply to drones.
Small changes not worth mentioning

Wake up babe, a new Jaun’s drone update is out

janiTNT · Jun '22

ONI Hopefully you have a lot of extra space on your ships for them, these use a lot of space

janiTNT · Jun '22

I really need to stop adding content

3.1:
Added conveyors and storages, hopefully your ships dont have terribly explosive modules, and you can put the actual factories deep in your ship, protected from fire.

This also allows for way easier complete automation, (i belive) its even possible to use automation++ to make a fully automatic... drones drone???

oh... yeah, it still needs one or two crew to man it, i'll see if i can ask permission for using assets to make it compatible with the mod

kwhwwymwn · Jun '22

janiTNT idk what assets you need, but you can reuse auto++ code as long as you give credit
Edit: ask before giving credit because I didn't write all auto++ code as some old part like the weapon controller are mostly unchanged and still working after several years

Worked on it, Drone launchers are now auto++ automatable
I need to work on atleast one feature before doing that though, I'll see what I'll do
Thinking of tiny drone swarm or incoming fire shield drone

3.2:
Buffed Conveyor speed ~~_due~~ ~~_to~~ ~~_customer~~ ~~_complaints~~
Added Shield drone, It protects your drones from incoming PD and Flak
Added MK3 Combat drone, a better version of the tiny Combat drone, but only launchable from large launchers. Easily Launchable in salvos

You can now use Automation++ to control drone launchers

-w- i got tired and didnt make another Huge drone... sorry
oh well~~, time to make the BFG 10000 on my other mod~~

have fun!

3.3:
Added bridge conveyors
reworked conveyors
Added "routers" (glorified overflow gates)
Added mini stell tanks (very slow and basically drives on the "background")
All drones now bounce off enemies as well.

_most DRONES NOW WORK IN MULTIPLAYER _{i hope}

got exausthed of modding, will take a while to something new to come out...
sorry
