Post Drone Behaviour
Dear admins,

Drones have some weird targeting issues.

When I deploy 5 drones I will often see that when there are multiple targets in range, atleast one of them will ''engage trollmode'' and choose to fire at a different target than the other 4 drones. I have noticed this behaviour with several drones.

I'm quite sure that some of my drones wanted to shoot spawn in prince even tho they did 0 dmg.

Armada Inferno Drones would always choose to Lincin the spawn in Prince (even tho the spawn is invulnerable) instead of shooting Prince with Lincins. That bug has been around for ages.

For drone targeting, simply learn how drones target different AI, and forget about RTS.

Drone in trollmode?

Anyway, it happens all the time to me, the drones just pick any random target to shoot at.

They are invulnerable until Prince is dead. If you try shoot them you will notice that you do 0 damage to them as long as Prince is alive.

Ah right. Well this is an exception to the rule methinks then... If the RTS worked correctly (being worked on, sent ticket) then you could just target prince

I have a feeling Drone RTS fix will be on the backburner for some time.

Drones never targeted correctly in the first place. Nothing was done. Excuse was "c2."

C2 is here with RTS, but RTS is buggy crap with drones. But nothing will be done because... RTS.

Engineers get the shaft with this one.
