Minion222 done!

      Using Drone cores in nearly all of my capital ships, it´s easier to use than reactors (in my opinion at least).

      Drakador_Chaos There’s my problem, the ability for drone cores to act like more efficient crew members is kind of an exploit of the system. I wish I could make it more advanced to avoid these exploits, but I have to work with what I have got. Either way, I am glad you enjoy the mod!

        jbox1 Well I suppose the limited range is a balancing factor, a reactor can be basically put anywhere, Drone cores need be near systems and if they´re gone and there´s no other core nearby that whole section is basically dead. But you probably want more than that,

          jbox1 I Have a way to make only the AI parts powered by the cores, just make a new power source whichlooks like the normal power, but is used only for AI parts and maybe the controler for drones that can steer other drones, but yeah thats one way it would make the cores less op. What do you think?

            Minion222 That´d be a way to do it, but it´d lower the compatibility with other mods and vanilla.

                Minion222 Drakador_Chaos The idea of the drone core was to be able to make fully customizable and multi-functional drones that are compatible with other mods. Making drone cores only power certain parts would defeat the purpose.

                      I wonder how major a mod needs to be to be considered a major mod? Anywho, I am glad so many people like the mod, keep up the good work guys!

                                CONGRALURATONS @jbox1 !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

                                jbox1 He just started using it a video or two ago lol

                                  SoundRAGE It’s episode four, and now he is making crewless ships with drone cores instead! He has also been a valid source for playtesting, so I know what I need to change in the future, namely the Teg-Ship easter egg, which will confuse early players of the game who don’t use the forum.

                                      jbox1 aww i like the tegship description.

                                      EDIT: Jbox can you keep the tegship description but put the actual length in parenthesis, please.
