MES Remaining Drone Menace

描述
Spawns several small drones occasionally to encourage players to build defensive turrets.

Description

Often enough players completely forget to build any form of defenses, and then suddenly there is a large, dangerous NPC in front of their base. I see two problems here: one is that there was simply no reason to build any form of defense, and secondly that most MES mods just throw massive, dangerous ships at you.

Why not have a mod that starts you small and easy, and gets progressively more difficult?

The Remaining Drone Menace is not actually dangerous. The very first drones you will encounter barely fly, have just one gun, and are more occupied with their malfunctions than to actually shoot. A "gentle" reminder that you wanted to build turrets, and a simple hand grinder will be all you need to get rid of them, before it actually accidentally hits something. However if you keep ignoring your defenses, sooner or latter an angry drone with actual weapons might come around.

Features

- Small, performance friendly, low cost drones, with no particularly expensive blocks.
- Very low challenge, so they should not spontaneously end your game.
- Rare spawns, expect about one drone per hour.
- They stop spawning after a while if you got your base all powerful and protected, so they don't become an annoyance.
- Self-destruct if damaged sufficiently, so the place won't get littered.

More drones will be added occasionally, following the same scheme.

Spawning has been changed with the latest official SE patch. Maybe I have to take a look into it again.

any way to make a version where the drones are even less common? like 1 per 24 hours?, i'd love this random event, but it would be rough as a constant time interval like this, some bases have their defenses as seperate grids, so i assume the drone won't realize the base is defended and thus wont stop spawning? aka, interested in a 1 drone per 24hour version, also do the drones target the player's location or any owned base? like even on another planet?

The idea is superb. Like many other mods, this should be fully in vanilla.

It does, however the way MES spawns it will spawn a lot less drones if there is other stuff to spawn. I have no idea to change that, and with the grand lack of documentation I have no idea where to start.

Anyone know if this still works? I haven't seen a single drone I think. I do love the concept though.

This is really cool and should be added to the mes collection! :steamthumbsup:

Just want to note that the reason I usually avoid building defences in the early game is that ammo requires industrial quantities of magnesium to make that is impossible to acquire in sufficient quantities in the early game. My experiences were all pre-warfare2 update though so maybe the game has changed in that respect.
