Re: Drones, noticed something odd...
No I was shooting planet to planet. Once my drone ship left the system my drones stopped.
I think drones need to be able to target empty planets.
I was hoping for IPMs but drones only seem to be useable in the same system.

Re: Drones, noticed something odd...
Let me run some tests and as they seem to work in the beta Version but I did not run every possable attack. I will get back to you on this once I am done.

Re: Drones, noticed something odd...
Ok I found a way to move drones as a group. Hold down shift and select them.

Re: Drones, noticed something odd...
Not in this case.
ICBM = Intercontinental Ballistic Missile. I think drones have slightly longer range than that, and they certainly aren't ballistic

Re: Drones, noticed something odd...
Anyone notice that in ship to ship combat, drones with antiplanet warheads attack ships? This just doesn't seem right somehow. Perhaps I should pay more attention to drone strategy settings? Specific situation involved a ship carrying a mix of antiplanet and antiship drones. All the drones launched and attacked the enemy ship. No planet was involved.

Re: Drones, noticed something odd...
I had them attack a ship with just anti planet warheads. They were the antiplanet type in the type screen as well.
