How do repair drones work?

And then, i have about 12 repair drones on my frigate. But I don't see any options to deploy them. When do they launch, and how tin you recollect them? Do they only repair the transport they belong to the cargo of? How do they piece of work? Inquiring minds want to know. : p

M sized ships exercise non launch repair drones. They auto repair the send from within the cargo bay. They only launch on capital letter ships, 50 and Forty. I imagine they behave similar combat drones. When your ship is damaged, they volition launch, and repair until 100% hull, so re-dock.

M sized ships do non launch repair drones. They car repair the ship from inside the cargo bay. They merely launch on majuscule ships, L and 40. I imagine they deport similar combat drones. When your ship is damaged, they will launch, and repair until 100% hull, then re-dock.

What near the Mining drones for Fifty Gas miner?
It seems y'all tin can't mine gas youself and totally depands on these drones?

I used the 50 gas miner and saw it launch and retrieve mining drones to fill up with gas.

Not sure if the M miner works the same way.

I appreciate the answers. Practise they automatically wing dorsum into the capital ship when they are done with repairs? Or exercise yous need to manually deactivate and collect them?

Defense drones auto deploy for me on my Gorgon same with turrets they machine fire due to settings. I assume transmission deployment if possible would exist done with the "enter" key aforementioned equally sats and laser turrets etc. I should probably pick up the Paranid carrier today and mess around with it. Think it only has space for 20 drones which is oddly low compared to Rebirth. If I think correctly though Rebirth only allowed like 8 or then military/mining drones out at a time though. Cargo and Builders had no such limitation merely nevertheless many they could agree I call back. The Arawn in XR had like 200+ drone space which was essentially S grade fighters. Makes the X4 versions seem tame or like Frigates spec wise.

Gas miners do not need drones. They auto fill just flying through gas I think. I ran an 50 Gas Miner without drones, because there was a bug with recalling drones that acquired me to lose ane earlier. It mined merely fine, if a little fleck slower.

The L miner drones work as following for me:

1) If I'm piloting: They do nothing. They won't launch and I have to collect ore per normal as if I were an Grand or S ship.
two) Put AI pilot in accuse: Mining drones launch. They automatically collect the "asteroids" that are broken upward after your send breaks a large asteroid. Thus, speeding up the drove process. I think half-dozen is about every bit much equally y'all would need since almost roids don't break into more than than that.

Cargo drones work exactly the same way. They don't launch if I'm in accuse, but if you set the ship to collect resource containers in an area, it will deploy cargo drones and haul the resources back to the ship.

I haven't personally used repair drones.

Shipyards & Equipment docks under upgrade send/consumables(I call back). For stations it is little unlike... You need to gild how many drones you lot want in one of data menus and it volition order parts and assemble drones within station (or that'southward what mine did).

It's not earth hunger because we can't feed poor,it's because there will never be enough to feed the rich .....
