    Build: 4262
    Mode: Survival

    SERVER NAME: NA
    SEED-ID: Any

    If applicable:
    MODIFIED PLAYFIELDS: Both

    Reproducibility: Always
    Severity: Major

    Type: Drone AI

    Summary: Space drones do not attack when spawned via the PDA or debug menu

    Description: If a space drone is spawned via either the PDA or via the debug menu, they will fly around but will not fire on the player or their ship.
    Affects vanilla space drones in Default Random and both vanilla and custom drones in Reforged Eden.
    I did not test drones spawned via the playfield files.

    Steps to Reproduce:
    1) Start a default survival game and go to orbit.
    2) Use the faction command to set your reputation to 0 with Zirax or other factions.
    3) Use the debug menu to spawn space drones of those factions. The drones will not fire on the player.
    4) Spawn a ship and give it power and the drones will still not fire on you or your ship.

    Just checked and drones spawned via the PDA or debugmenu on planets also do not attack.

    Taelyn recommended trying the "SpawnDroneIgnoreOtherTarget" set to false. I tried with both settings and the drones still do not attack the player when spawned via the PDA on planets or in space.

    A fix for this will be available in our next planned release early next week.
    Please note the fix will only work with vanilla drones.
