As they're landing? Does it help?

This is helpful sometimes. But I was really hoping it would show the drone radius for rockets as they're landing.

not yet

This mod seems to be showing the drone grid with the extender, but I would like to only show the range for the base drone hub without extender. Is there a way to accomplish that?
ChoGGi  [author] 11 Dec, 2021 @ 4:32pm 
Have you tried that without my mod?

I could be wrong but I think this mod isn't playing nice with the "Prefab-Refab" technology from the Recon&Expansion tree. After packing up a Drone Hub, the radius is still showing on the map, despite them not being there anymore.

Thanks! Works great now.
ChoGGi  [author] 11 Oct, 2021 @ 3:22pm 
fixed (forgot about that part)

The update has a bug. The RC Seeker range toggles ON with numpad 3, but doesn't toggle OFF with numpad 3. I have to select a blueprint then dismiss to remove the range highlight.

updated
NotThatHarkness 10 Oct, 2021 @ 7:34pm 
No, I've played 2 games with Europe since the last hotfix and the mod doesn't toggle the RC Seeker range.
ChoGGi  [author] 10 Oct, 2021 @ 4:52pm 
It doesn't?
NotThatHarkness 10 Oct, 2021 @ 3:54pm 
Could the RC Seeker be added to this mod?
ChoGGi  [author] 1 Oct, 2021 @ 6:31am 
Not crashing for me. I'll take your save file if you don't mind?

Started crashing my game whenever I tried building anything. Anything that would trigger the build grid would Immediately cause a CTD. I removed this mod and it started working again.
ChoGGi  [author] 16 Mar, 2021 @ 11:21am 
Your welcome :)
Hylcourt-Lefuret 16 Mar, 2021 @ 11:19am 
Great! Everything seems to be working fine now.
Thank you very much for your reactivity and your efficiency. And again, congratulations for your contribution in this game.
ChoGGi  [author] 16 Mar, 2021 @ 10:02am 
Yeah, I borked it when adding custom colour, I was just updating it now :)
Hylcourt-Lefuret 16 Mar, 2021 @ 6:52am 
The display of the radius of the grid around drones, rockets and commanders is not displayed in "construction" mode
and it is not possible to modify the parameters because nothing is displayed in "mod options"
Thanks for your help. (traduit du français)
ChoGGi  [author] 8 Mar, 2020 @ 6:55pm 
sure
some moron 8 Mar, 2020 @ 6:52pm 
Hi. Any chance you could make a "Construction Show (Subsurface) Heater"? I always have to monkey around to build within the boundaries. Thanks!
ChoGGi  [author] 15 Oct, 2019 @ 4:49pm 
Should be fixed now, let me know if you have any other issues.
Thongor 11 Oct, 2019 @ 9:46am 
Didn't even notice there was an Update. Thanks for telling me, though, and all the work you do.
ChoGGi  [author] 11 Oct, 2019 @ 8:31am 
Yeah evans broke them, I gotta update a bunch of mods.
Thongor 11 Oct, 2019 @ 8:05am 
Hoi. Got a weird Problem. When I open the in-game Mod Options, your mods do show up, but when I click on one of them, the options are empty. Tried to find a mod connflict, but even when it is only one, it doesn't work. Tried even reinstalling. Ever heard of something like this?
ChoGGi  [author] 11 Aug, 2019 @ 10:25am 
Yep, when you're placing drone hubs. Take another look at the description?
dabeek 11 Aug, 2019 @ 10:08am 
I thought the game already showed drone grids..?
SIX 5 Jul, 2019 @ 2:19am 
ill never understand why its not vanilla default or a toggle thanks for this
ChoGGi  [author] 18 Jun, 2019 @ 5:04pm 
v0.6
Added Dist From Cursor mod option.
Added grid opacity option.
Tuvka 29 May, 2019 @ 11:16pm 
Oh, I was embarrassed by the picture with a small radius of action of drones :D. I always have the maximum radius, and I never paid attention that you can play with this size.
Thanks buddy and sorry for the misunderstanding, and that confused your head.
ChoGGi  [author] 29 May, 2019 @ 11:06pm 
It's the drone grid... Select a drone hub, see the area that drones work in, the one you can adjust?
Tuvka 29 May, 2019 @ 11:03pm 
Thanks buddy for your attention. Yes, I installed and everything works great. I do not understand why ... In this area can not be built? Or are there more drones safer? Maybe in this zone less energy to spend?
ChoGGi  [author] 29 May, 2019 @ 10:55pm 
LIke it says and the image shows, when construction mode is active it shows the drone grids. I'm not really sure how else to explain it?
You could install it and see the difference?
Tuvka 29 May, 2019 @ 10:14pm 
Only that I understand the necessity of that mod.
I do not understand why Show Drone Grid is needed.
Please explain.
ChoGGi  [author] 29 May, 2019 @ 9:30pm 
What does this have to do with dust?
Tuvka 29 May, 2019 @ 9:28pm 
Good day. Please explain why this mod is needed? If everything is clearly with dust, he is here, i personally do not understand. Thanks.
Solidus 25 May, 2019 @ 12:38pm 
It works now! Thanks a lot!
ChoGGi  [author] 24 May, 2019 @ 4:21pm 
Oh, devs decided to change ShowBuildingHexes() to check if it's a Building class :(
ChoGGi  [author] 24 May, 2019 @ 3:32pm 
Odd, I'll see about the commander outline.
Solidus 24 May, 2019 @ 2:51pm 
I verified game cache, started enabling mods one by one. Now it works. Except it doesn't show the outline for the RC Commander, but that's a minor issue to me. The rest works. If you want more info I'm willing to dig around though. Thanks for your work!
ChoGGi  [author] 24 May, 2019 @ 2:36pm 
MCR isn't my mod, and you don't need it for any of my mods since Armstrong update.

What is the issue you're having?
Solidus 24 May, 2019 @ 2:26pm 
Hi I'm having some problems getting your mods to work, I've been trying to narrow it down. I disabled all but your mods:

I get a LUA error:

Do you have any idea maybe? Thanks.
Peter34 4 Nov, 2018 @ 7:02am 
I’ve always wanted this functionality! Thanks!
ChoGGi  [author] 17 Oct, 2018 @ 5:07pm 
v0.3
Now shows grid for RC Commanders as well.
Different colours for each type.
ChoGGi  [author] 9 Aug, 2018 @ 9:14am 
As I've said on my collection page, ECM first than all the rest.
Voblaa 9 Aug, 2018 @ 5:52am 
Hi I really love that mod, are you working on updating it for da vinci ?
ChoGGi  [author] 2 Jul, 2018 @ 5:03pm 
That doesn't sound like anything to do with this mod, but I do have a fix for rovers with stuck drones in ECM (Menu>ECM>Fixes>Reset Rovers).
Chipper 2 Jul, 2018 @ 3:07pm 
ran into an issue with rc after about turn 40 where the rc would get stuck in movement mode but didnt move, would move after 4 or 5 move clicks. with that though it would sometimes unload its drones to the drone hub before moving. GREAT MOD cant wait for the updates.
