    No worries:

    Build:Alpha 2.3.3 (latest)
    Mode: survival MP
    Mode: Multiplayer survival

    SERVER NAME: Salty space pirates
    SEED-ID: 2309115

    If applicable:
    MODIFIED PLAYFIELDS: Eden Reforged

    Reproducibility:
    Severity: high

    Type: Space

    Summary: Sudden appearance of a swarm of drones (mixture of types). After fighting off most of them, a few will remain, but all ship turrets act as if they are not there. they will not fire or even track these drones.

    Description:

    1. Confirmed that the culprit is KrielDroneLaser only so far - but will try and see if there are others with more testing.
    2. by flying backwards I was able to get a number of manual fire rockets to hit one of the kriel drones. either they are ridiculously strong, or invincible. 6 salvos of 4 rockets did not stop it.
    3. I thought this may be a reforged eden bug, but a few people mentioned that they noticed certain drones dying, then resurrecting, therefore turrets dont see them and they are un-killable on the vanilla game. (could this be it?)
    4. This was replicated in 2 or 3 legacy systems (LGC tag) plus 2 Zirax systems (ZRX tag), including asteroid fields and sectors with planets.
    5. We are running a dedi server through Low.ms - running reforged eden.

    Steps to Reproduce: go into space, wait for drone swarm, notice only certain drones are left and turrets cant see them or fire.

    Did these drones all appear "dead" ?

    Hi Pantera,

    they did not look it, but the purple flame animation only shows up when you re really close and i was in 3rd person. also I have seen them continue to fly and shoot with that purple flame thing.. are they supposed to be dead at that point?

    The other drones in the swarm (polaris, trader etc all act as expected, attack until dead, then stop attacking and flying (obviously) seems to just be the KrielDroneLaser ones

    The fix for the dead drones is now on the experimental branch Build 3042.
    When a fix is ready for the kriel drones & AI turrets targeting I'll update here again.

    Build: 12.3.3 3034
    Mode: Survival
    Mode: Dedicated

    Reproducibility: Always
    Severity: Major

    Type: AI Vessel

    Summary: Space Drone Kriel Laser under a Pirate flag still flying and shooting after being destroyed.

    Description: I've just lost a large portion of my CV due to a single laser space drone that was surrounded by glowing as if destroyed but still flying and shooting. My turrets were ignoring it as it, I presume at it was supposed to be dead and I could not warp out due to the "under attack, wait 19s" block. It took me literally 20 to 30 minutes to evade it for long enough to initiate warp.

    Steps to Reproduce: Be near one
