Planetary Pirate bay antenna drone mod

Description
With this Mod you got new and known enemies with a little bit more AI for Planets.

Attention:
With the update from 14th Oct 2017 this mod supports the Mod: "Modular Encounters Spawner" to spawn automaticly without extra effort. https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1521905890
(updated to the newer version)

Now you have two options how to use this Mod.
_________________________________________________________
How to use (without Mod Planetary Installations):
Enable drones on your world. Install this Mod and place a grid with an antenna and power (battery/reactor/solar panel). Rename the antenna and use one of the available names (without ""). Transfer the whole Grid with the antenna to "Space Pirates". The game spawns and despawns the drones (despawn in SE is set to 5min if no user in range). You can set antennas near by to create your own combinations. This Mod is using the default Mod behavior from Keens Antenna Drone Mod, it contains new Antennadefinitions for Pirate drones. I am using modified Keen drones and my own creations with my own script. No other Mods required.

_________________________________________________________
How to use (with Mod Planetary Installations):
Enable drones on your world. Install this Mod and the Mod "Modular Encounters Spawner" https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1521905890
See description from Planetary Installations for updates. For now you dont have to do something more.
The Mods will spawn Drones and Stations on Planets near you acording of your movement.

_________________________________________________________
Drones (short):
All drones have a fighting range of 5km, use this as range for your antenna (or less).
_________________________________________________________
Stations:
The stations they spawn are made to carry the antennas to spawn drones, only the higher level Stations are real a bit larger (Keen Stations with my antennas).
_________________________________________________________

Please dont publish the Scripts / Drones / etc. you find in this Mod. thx.
Feedback is welcome, thumb up also.

Because i dont know what Keen is changing in the next update, i canot guarantee that the behavior of the drones is tomorow the sam as today.

You have a idea for improvements? Post it.
And now have fun and die, in this row ;-)

Known issues:
- Autopilot is fliying too low over hills and crashes --> currently i fix this with a 1x1x1 sensor

nope ;-)
I think it was high enough. But a little bit space should be around them.

will do any idea how high up they should spawn as i dont want them to crash on agaris due to the hieght map
Takeshi  [author] 15 Jul, 2024 @ 2:09am 
above the antenna. But I did not have used the mod since a while, maybe it will not work. Pleas egive feedback here so I know it. Thank you.

where do the drones spawn in relation to the antenna like right next to it or more on the edge of their range?
Takeshi  [author] 12 Jul, 2020 @ 8:57am 
didnt checked it for a while. I think it should still work because i dont remember changes in this part of SE.
