As far as I'm concerned, the limpet drone controls should be revamped,
- Drones now have their own integrity and no longer expire.
On target: will only collect what is locked.
When selecting a collectable target, pressing twice on the target would activate the collection drone in this case
if off: não coletará nada bloqueado ou dentro do alcance.
The idea of carrying disposable drones is a rather unfeasible idea and disrupts all game activities, how many builds would be simplified and optimized with this change.
-Drone controller integrity
-drone integrity.
-drone speed.
-Controller power consumption.
-Maximum active drones.
-Maximum drone range.
-Reconstruction time
Other specifications for specialized drones:
- Repair capacity (repair and decontamination limpets)
- Fueling speed (Fuel Transfer Limpet)
- Hacking time (Recon Limpet Controller)
- Cargo Hatch Perforation (Hatch Breaker Limpet Controller)
Hatch Breaker Limpet Controller
This drone could be reformulated, where when using the drone it would be successful or not depending on the resistance of the cargo hatch and the perforation of the Limpet. In this way, the cargo hatch would now have reinforced engineering.
This way, more unprepared pirates would not be able to easily steal cargo from ships with a reinforced cargo hatch, however pirates with Limpet and perforation could have a chance.
A reinforced cargo hatch would also help with the integrity of this module, which in a short time of combat ends up being destroyed.
To activate the drone, simply press twice on the target and the drone is sent, a third press deactivates it.
Following parameters:
- Mass
- Limpet controller integrity
- Clean integrity.
- Limpet speed.
- Controller power consumption.
- Maximum active Limpet: 1
- Maximum Limpet range:
- Reconstruction time
- Cargo Hatch Perforation (Hatch Breaker Limpet Controller)
Engineering:
Drilling: Increases the drilling of the cargo hatch and decreases its speed.
Speed: increases Limpet speed and rebuild time but increases module power consumption.
Reinforced: increases the integrity of Limpet and Limpet controller integrity but increases mass and consumption.
Low consumption: -Controller power consumption reduced and drilling reduced.
- Own design, a unique design different from other drones, an aggressive design.
Generic engineering for Limpet:
Speed: increases Limpet speed and rebuild time but increases module power consumption.
Reinforced: increases the integrity of Limpet and Limpet controller integrity but increases mass and consumption.
Low consumption: Controller power consumption reduced and drilling reduced.
long range: Limpet with extended range and extended power consumption.
Generic experience effect:
Integrity: increases the value of module integrity and Limpet.
Light: Reduces mass.
Low consumption: reduces energy consumption.
improved range: increases range.
Repair Limpet Controller / Decontamination Limpet Controller
The repair drone will repair its own ship even if selected in the firing group without a target, or if a target is defined, it continues to the target.
It will contain a unique animation where it surrounds the ship with a white band repairing the ship until the repair is completed and returns inside the controlling ship (instead of just docking in the cargo hatch)
Each drone will repair one ship at a time, having maximum repair capacity according to the drone controller's specifications, with more drones it is possible to send repairs to several different ships.
Specifications:
-Mass
- Limpet controller integrity
- Clean integrity.
- Limpet speed.
- Controller power consumption.
- Maximum active Limpet
- Maximum Limpet range
- Reconstruction time.
- Hull repair value
- Hull repair time(repair limpets)
- Internal repair time(repair limpets)
Exclusive engineering:
- Increased repair: increase the repair value, but increase the drone rebuild time.
- Reconstruction time: reduces reconstruction time but increases consumption and mass.
Unique experimental effect:
Internal repair: speeds up the intended repair time for modules but reduces the repair time for the hull. (repair limpets)
Collector limpet controller
The drone collector will follow a new design, the animation may remain the same, but its movement will be improved.
To use the drone, simply check the correct firing group, and toggle between active / deactivated
With a target selected, it would be enough to activate it to pick up a single item. or just activate it without a defined target, thus automatically searching for items around it.
To adjust the number of active drones, simply select menu 3 in collector limpets: change between the options:
Select active drones: <according to quantity available in the module>
Select altomatic search mode: active / deactivated.
This way the drones will all be launched to pick up items within range automatically whenever there are items.
Unique experimental effect:
Extra Limpet: adds more drones to the maximum active.
- Drones now have their own integrity and no longer expire.
- Because they have their own integrity, it's not necessary to bring tons of drones into the job, that will cease to exist.
- If a drone is destroyed, it can be rebuilt after a certain period of time, just like fighters.
- The drone can be locked as a target.
- The drone controller becomes a sub-target, as it is an internal module.
- the design of the drone needs to be reformulated (no one needs to see a flying barrel, a comodite with propulsion) different types of drones, with different designs.
- The drone's vector needs to be adjusted so that it can better maneuver to reach the ship's position.
- When there are no targets to pick up, the drone returns to the ship.
- When you press menu 3, among the ship's drone options, you could add instructions for collecting the drone, such as: Automatic collection: Activate / Deactivate / On target
On target: will only collect what is locked.
When selecting a collectable target, pressing twice on the target would activate the collection drone in this case
if off: não coletará nada bloqueado ou dentro do alcance.
The idea of carrying disposable drones is a rather unfeasible idea and disrupts all game activities, how many builds would be simplified and optimized with this change.
- the number of active drones can be adjusted in the ship's options in menu 3 in a new tab for drones (the more active drones, the higher the energy consumption and the more effective).
- The sizes and types of Limpet could be maintained, 1, 3, 5, 7, A, B, C, D and E.
- The following are the new specifications:
-Drone controller integrity
-drone integrity.
-drone speed.
-Controller power consumption.
-Maximum active drones.
-Maximum drone range.
-Reconstruction time

- Repair capacity (repair and decontamination limpets)

- In the case of the decontamination limpet, it can also follow its exclusive design, a similar animation plus a different track.
