Vehicle framework would be cool for this

Maybe I'm missing something, but after I built the aerodrone there's no interaction with it. No menu or icons and no context menu?

If you're still working on this, any chance of using the new aerocraft framework instead?

There is still a red error on startup. This is the only red error on startup, for my 350 mods list.

let's drone strike some weddings

Also found this: O21 :: Tweaks Galore :: Mechanoid Recognised: PRFDrone/drone, but not patched as it has no heat armour value. This is intended behaviour not an error.

Error on startup:

manually opening the folder in file explorer and deleting it in its entirety and resubing actually solved RimPy error.
Thanks for suggestion :)

Thanks 4 advice)

I updated the dependency to smashphil.srtsexpanded when I updated this mod to 1.4. If you are still seeing a dependency for smashphil.neceros.srtsexpanded, then it is because steam is not keeping this mod up to date. You may want to try manually deleting the file for this workshop item and then re-subscribing to it

If you rimpy, and maybe this is shown in the in-game mod manager, but loading this mod will give an error, saying it's missing the srts dependency. I am not sure why, but i believe this is due to the fact the mod is looking for a smashphil.neceros.srtsexpanded , while the updated mod this depends on has a new package id of smashphil.srtsexpanded

Will u make dependence of new SRTS mod for 1.4 ?

Thank you!

1.4 version has just been uploaded

Please update to 1.4

New version of SRTS was posted for 1.4, but its a new mod to sub to. FYI

Please update to 1.4

how can i send multiple drones to bomb one spot?

@Bucko
Thanks for your answer specifically and the mod in general!

@skk
The error should be safe to ignore. It's something related to extending the SRTS Expanded mod, which I don't think I can control.

Same as Frigglish , keep getting that error. Anything we can do? Safe to ignore i suppose

Bombs not working...

obama time

'MURICA! FUCK YEAH!

wish there was a way to auto fill the aerodrone with shells after each run

lmao drone strike time
works great with advanced munitions

This will fuel my need for committing war crimes! This time with drone strikes!

could we get more types of drones? it would be nice having a larger bomber esc drone that can hold up to 10 bombs or huge freight drones that can carry 5000kg mass.

Consistently get
"XML error: <soundFlyBy>SoundDef</soundFlyBy> doesn't correspond to any field in type ThingDef"
regarding the BuildableAerodrone_BomberRun def... which is weird, because base SRTS defines that space exactly the same way and throws no errors about it. It appears to be common among SRTS-derived mods after a def update a while back.

Okay Thanks :)

@Nahfahlaar
I don't think it's fully CE compatible. The original mod description (SRTS Expanded) says that there is only partial compatibility with CE, and some people in the comments are talking about a forked version on Github that works better with CE.

Is this CE compatible, play with CE and my drones do nothing by bombard? with any ammunition.

@Thundercraft
You are correct, this mod does not require anything from the core Royal Arsenal mod to function properly. It only requires SRTS expanded.

Am I correct in assuming that the Royal Arsenal mod is optional (a recommendation) and not required?

These work like re-usable drop pods. Both can be used to transport cargo between maps, and the cargo variant can transport up to 2 pawns.

The military aerodrone can also be loaded with mortar shells and given an order to drop them at a location. This discussion has a good tutorial on how to use the bombing feature:
https://steamproxy.net/workshop/filedetails/discussion/1845423808/2145343824290873730/

Someone tells me what it's for I don't understand he drops a bomb?

@Tirith Amar
Both drone types are reusable. You should look at the original mod page (SRTS expanded) for some more information on how to use them if you haven't used that mod before.

I have also updated the description with some more info on each drone.

Are the cargo transporters reusable? And it would be nice to know what the resource cost is for these?

Awesome! Thanks! The perfect wittle guy to carry antigrain gifts.

Ah, too bad there isn't a non-royalty version. This sounds like a great mod with which to unleash havoc upon my enemies.

I have become Obama destroyer of non-combatants

@jje64
It uses techprints, which are added by royalty. More importantly, I don't want to risk violating community rules like 13c.

Why does this need Royalty?

Finally, I can roleplay as the US Military

@Ryoko
This mod works like SRTS expanded if you have ever played with that mod. I'd recommend reading the original mod page for some more information. There is another useful discussion here that gives more details on the bombing run feature:
https://steamproxy.net/workshop/filedetails/discussion/1845423808/2145343824290873730/

The reason for your drones being lost is likely because the map is not loaded. Try sending a single pawn ahead to scout out the location. Once the enemy's base is loaded, you can order a bombing run on them.

I don't understand how it works, i load the drone with shells and the only option to launch is "form a caravan here" and then the drone disappear of his existence, loosing it and the shells
