Default Plague Drones?

Quote:
Version 1.86:
8. Fixed - Drones were not inflicting special damage types.
So, the patch is out. Has someone tested this yet?

Unfortunately, you can't install Plague Bomb on Drone in stock game due to Vehicle Type := Ship\Base.
So I set Vehicle Type := Ship\Base\Sat\Drone for Plague Bomb I-V, mount my medium drone with 3 plague bomb and start attacking planet.

And you know, they work!!

Yes, it is for ramming damage. Normal weapons fire has always worked fine from drones.

Sorry for misunderstanding, that is new info for me.

Anyway, I've changed Weapon Damage Type for Anti-Planet Warhead I-III from "Normal" to "Plague Level 3". Equiped few drones with this new warheads and then ram them into the planet in combat (tactic, non-simultaneous).

Hmm, they are infected. And keep dying.

Is it what you talking about, or I'm confused again?

Yes, that is what the change was. That will now work. In 1.84, a plague damage warhead (for example) did not do plague damage upon ramming.

We treid this in a mod some time ago and could not get it to work. Now Plague Intel projects work great.

Didn't plague intel projects work fine before? Intel projects are just caused events, after all.
