Build: 1.10.4 4243 Mode: Survival Mode: Single Player / Multiplayer Reproducibility: Sometimes Severity: Minor Type: Drone AI Summary: Sometimes the Large Minigun Drones will seem to glitch out and will not turn to target the player, and will instead just wander around aiming their gun at the ground. Description: The Large Minigun Drone model seems to have an issue where sometimes it will get stuck and fail to aim its gun at the player. It can work fine and orbit the player like any other drone. But at times it seems like it gets stuck aiming its gun, can't change its direction, and wanders around jiggling itself until it happens to line up its gun with the player and fires off a few rounds. Most other drone models do not seem to exhibit this behavior. Steps to Reproduce: Download the attached savegame "Vanilla Planet Drone Test.zip" from here: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1OLO9iybLesV3hbDYuS9k1wjea50uAGK1/view Load the game. You will be sitting in an admin-cored SV on a desert moon near a drone base with several Large Minigun Drones in the area Observe the differing behavior of the drones. Some will be shooting at you, some will appear lost and confused. Screenshots: Video capture of the above save on my machine:
I wish whatever causes this bug is also the cause for all other broken drones not shooting or completely ignoring the player, but i can't reproduce it yet :/
Eek. Well, hopefully this is all related and they can be solved as a batch. But I do know that in the case of the large minigun drones they look like they are trying their hardest to shoot at you and failing, rather than ignoring you entirely.
Multiplayer RE, play for 3 weeks and not any drone had shot at me. Even while base attacks. They shoot my base, my vehicles but not me
