 Drone Auras and Capital Ships Drone Auras (e.g the one from Advanced Command & Control Drone) does not affect Capital Ships, which is a shame, I don't see why they should not. Also fix the Gamma Emitter so that it negatively affects the capship itself, because at the moment, it is not, and that is a huge bug.

Or do they affect both?

Re: Drone Auras and Capital Ships From what I thought I understood, Gamma Emitter is supposed to do -100 shield charge to the dread, but I just tested it and it doesn't seem to be effecting my shield charge. So not sure if it is supposed to since when a field has 0 range it is supposed to effect the ship it is used on.

Re: Drone Auras and Capital Ships Well, you can simply make the Aura give a negative amount of shield charge, just like a Shield Charger, say -100 Shield Recharge. It needs a fix overall, giving -360 Shield Recharge without having any downsides is just broken. So Admins can either remove it, or fix it. I am sure Chernobyl's Legacy has the same bug. Fix Admins, no need to keep a bugged and broken item in game unfixed.
And also fix the fact that my Engineers Drones can affect Capships please.

Re: Drone Auras and Capital Ships Code: <AURAEMANATION Magnitude="-100.0" Percent="false" NoTweak="true" TimeRemaining="0" Range="0.0" PulseFrequency="1200" TimeBestowed="2000" Expires="false" Friend="false" Foe="false" Everyone="false" AffectSelf="true" AffectCapShip="true">SHIELDCHARGE</AURAEMANATION>
I'll look into the Gamma Emitter a bit more since it is written so that it does - I've a feeling that the AffectSelf and AffectCapShip are in the wrong positions. As for drone auras - I'm going to talk to Paper later, there's some oddities going on, I want to run things past him before altering any of them.

Re: Drone Auras and Capital Ships Just FYI, the drone auras are extremely balanced at the moment. Useful, yes, but you have to watch over then like mad.
