Blazing EX's Amazing Mod Review: (2.9 version)

Will no longer crash in multiplayer

"Reusable Missiles with guns are very good!"

All drones are modded projectiles/missiles, meaning they can be launched by friendly ships.
They aren't parts, meaning they can be only hit by shields, physical contact with parts, or point defense.

TOTAL FURY

Description here is bit confusing: is drone small ship part or projectile?

    BrutaTralb A projectile.
    Works similarly to a missile

        i mean, it is a unique way to do it

          This is a good mod (not sure if this is breaking "necroposts" rules or not) however the drones get sent very far away from the ship that launched it and by the time they get there the fight could be over.

          StaticMask I guess it qualifies as valuable feedback

              i`ll see what i can do.
              i really should check the forums more often (now my only source of official cosmoteer discussion)
              if i update this i will add tiny drones too, and hopefully make the code of the tiny drones work on the large ones so they dont go too far like you said

                  also, sorry, my pc problems was also more than just a problem with windows, files were corrupted, that was unfortunate

                      janiTNT changed the title to juanTNT Launchable Drones mod (V2).

                        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

                            6 days later

                            Another update wouldn't hurt right?

                                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

                                      a month later

                                      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

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