Blazing EX's Amazing Mod Review:

THIS WILL CRASH ON MULTIPLAYER AFTER A FEW USES

"If the gun doesnt kill enough, add more gun"

*Puts gun on missiles* 😊😊😊

"wait no"

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.

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

juanTNT

BrutaTralb A projectile.
Works similarly to a missile

i mean, it is a unique way to do it

StaticMask

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.

BrutaTralb

StaticMask I guess it qualifies as valuable feedback

juanTNT

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

juanTNT

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

link does not work

juanTNT

Adlan111 try copying the link into the url bar

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

juanTNT

Another update wouldn't hurt right?

juanTNT

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

ONI

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

juanTNT

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

ONI

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

juanTNT

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