Follow me on: Workshop || YouTube || Reddit Easy to use automated combat drone. May be used with any other space ship. Designed to scale and co-operate with other automated systems in space. It utilises cheerkin`s Area Superiority Drone script, Whip`s SHART and SDS Operation System for the control panel. Large grid control module: Large grid control module If you'd like to buy me a coffee: https://ko-fi.com/pro100tv <- more pictures and WIP projects How to use: 1. Spawn the drone. 2. Cut off the control module (attached to the drone) and place the green parts on your command ship. [You can re-color them of course :)] Note: Remote controls and gyroscope must face the forward direction of your ship. 3. Get control over the #XB-2 Remote Control 4. Turn on "a-processing-core" PB on your command ship 5. Recompile the programmable blocks

In the #XB-2 Remote Control

6. Using 1-up ; 2-down ; 3-enter ; 5-previous page ; 6-next page, select "Form up" on the LCD. 7. At this point the drone should follow you and start to fight as soon as the turret picks up a hostile. Docking To dock: 1. Press 6 while controlling the #XB-2 Remote Control 2. Select "Dock"

To undock: 1. Select "Undock" 2. UPDATED now you simply need to press undock and the drone will go back to the formation right away.

If you have multiple drones and want to dock them, add more connectors to your command ship. Please note: the connectors should`t be obstructed by anything and if you decide to use different connector, name it "docka" and add to the "undock connectors" group. If you want your drones to attack a target which is outside of their turret range: 1. Take control over #XB-2 Remote Control 2. Select "Lock target" on the LCD 3. Point the camera on the target 4. select either "Attack locked" or "RAM" to Attack the target or ram it.

To recall the drones: 1. Select "Return" 2. Select "Stop shooting"

To switch formation for the circling pattern: 1. Select "Circle formation" 2. Select it again to stop. Note: It may take some time before the drones will start/stop circling. If you enjoy it please leave a thumb up, it helps a lot!!
