Mode: Survival Location: Dedicated Server If applicable: MODIFIED PLAYFIELDS: No Reproducibility: Always Severity: Major Type: Instances/AI Vessels Summary: During a drone base attack; the Drone Troop Transports approach my base and then stop short of the base and just hover in the air. They do not attack. They never fire a weapon. They do not transport troops into the fight. They hover in the sky and get annihilated by my base turrets. Description: See above Steps to Reproduce: Have the drone base attack scenario on. At some point our base stopped having the Drone Miniguns attack and instead the Drone Troop Transports appeared. This happened somewhere around 9.1 or 9.2
This is the "Base Attack Test Scenario"? Maybe open the console and you might see a "troop transporter waiting" > they'll wait about 10 seconds to deploy troops.
I’ll check today. The ships are being attacked as soon as they get near my base. They last maybe 10-30 seconds typically. I have never seen one attempt to land or do anything other than hover motionless in place.
I've seen this as well, but in a normal Survival game while attacking actual Zirax outposts. You get a notification that a dropship is coming, which it does - but once it approaches you it just freezes in the air. I've had one sit there for about 8minutes before I blew it up.
I haven't specifically run any scenarios. But using the GUI EmpAdminHelper the Game Options Config tab for Difficulty says that 'Drone baseattack' is set to Medium. I just watched a Drone Troop Transport approach (along with a Drone Minigun) and I checked the console. Nothing at all mentioned about the base attack or any drone activity.
