Combat Drones (Real Drones)

This mod adds automatic combat drones to the game. You can find them in various locations (mainly higher level locations, Far Harbor and Nuke World), craft them in your workshop as settled defense units or craft them as deployable followers. Drones can also participate in random encounters. This drone is flexible, powerful and has a long range. They are completely customizable. They do not conflict with any other race/bot replacements or mods. But they did edit the random encounter SM node. Not many mods can do this (for example (SKK's random encounters are like this). It has its own system).

How to get:

You can craft the workshop's injectors and follower drones under "Drones" in the Chemistry Lab.

The workshop menu has been infused with defenses, also known as "drone".

The drone has three layers. Luna, Orc, Bumblebee. They become stronger and more durable at higher levels.

There are also some special factions. The Institute, Gunners and BoS have their own variants of different weapons.

If you are a member of the respective faction, you can craft the BoS and Research Institute versions in your workshop. Otherwise, you can only make regular ones.

In the nuclear world, you can encounter "nuclear drones". Shelters also have their variants, which you rarely see around shelters

Follower Drone:

Following the drone can spot and mark enemies within its range. They were all red, even across the wall. So you'll never spot an enemy with a drone unprepared.

Follower drones can be destroyed. You can't fix them. If they are destroyed, you will need a new one. You can take as many as you want, but they weigh 85 pounds each.

You can have as many people following you at the same time as you want, but remember, they will block each other. 1 - 2 work fine. 3 has often caused a person to become crooked.

workshop:

The factory drones patrol a fairly large radius around their deployed locations. Make sure you give them enough room to navigate. Don't put too many barriers around them.

When you turn on workshop mode, drones will land on the ground when they're not in combat, so you can grab them. You can also see drone markers. This is where you initially place the drone and defines the center of the patrol radius. If you grab and move the drone, the marker will be moved to the new location.

During combat, the drone will not move downward.

Drones have high skill and material requirements, but they are powerful and offer defense ratings of 12 (Moon), 15 (Arcana), and 20 (Bee) as your solution.

When a workshop drone is destroyed, it sinks to the ground bar to await repair.

notes:

Drones are nearly impossible to navigate indoors. Most of them are outdoor equipment

Due to their size, and how "floating" works in this game, drones can have pathing issues in certain dense areas. Downtown Boston is also bad because of the advertising boards installed on the buildings. If the drone can't move forward, it will bend toward you.

Require:

The game version is 1.10.162 or higher.
