Hm. I *have* been toying with creating mounts for drone equipment and weapons so they're smaller than normal and then reducing the hullsize of the drones, but can't decide what to do with damage inflicted/range/damage capacity/etc.

What is a drone, exactly? My SEIV:Gold is on the way. Are they like strategic missiles, or disposable, zero-maintenance ships, or sattelites that can move only in the tactical map, or what?

The first two guesses are right on the mark
Just watch out for their supply storage... unlike ships and like fighters, they constantly drain supplies each turn and disappear when their supplies run out!

'satelite's that can move only on the tactical map' could be modded.

I've been thinking of working on a mod that turns drones into missiles. Work only in combat with no strategic movement allowing for the customization of missiles with various changes etc. Also allows for missile ammunition seperate from supplies. Only problem is the fire rate gets locked in to at least 1 per turn but only for as long as ammo Lasts.

I don't know about that. I tried adding combat movement onto a satelite hull a while back and it did absolutely nothing. It just stayed there.

Didn't try it on a satelite component though. Shouldn't make a difference but it might.
