I agree with the Baron on the AI aspects of Drones, thats why I think the issue should be as simple as possible. SJ's ideas on the percentages sounds good but would they apply to Worm Hole defenses as well? would the total of all gun defenses be added for l shot or would each planet & worm defense shoot as drone passes thru, in effect gving multifple chances for a hit? LemmyM's ideas sound good but like the Baron mentioned the AI isn't to swift in the managent area and if to complicated the drone issue won't get off the board, so maybe concentrate on only 1-2 simple uses like just the missle aspect and the scting drones. Also what weapons should be counted on to hit the drones? I don't thing every gun should be able to hit.
SJ, Baron, any ideas how to get some form of drones to work other then thru hard code changes??? LemmyM have you tried launching the ones you are designing??

just some ideas mac
