Fleet Logistics still makes drones faff when preparing to jump #217

Closed Greeba77 closed 5 days ago

Greeba77 commented 8 months ago

Description

In A8 there is a new feature that drones cancel their jobs and head home when preparing to jump, but it's not quite working. Sometimes drones still keep launching, coming back, launching again, unless you cancel Fleet Logistics like before. This feature needs to work fully or not at all, it's half pregnant at the moment.

Flavour affected

Steam

Operating System

Windows

Version

Alpha 8

Is it something that used to work before?

No, this is a new A8 feature

Expected behavior

When you prepare to jump, drones should stop launching with Logistics cargo.

Actual behavior

Drones mostly stop, but when you have lots of Logistics orders/ drones/ ships, there are a lot of small abortiver launches that shouldn't happen. The drones should settle down instead of doing this.

Repro steps

Have a few ships and a bunch of Logistics orders, prepare to jump, watch as the 'drones deployed' count hovers above 0 for ages as more and more of them disobey and launch again,

Confirmed this is still happening in Alpha 10, despite the otherwise much improved drone behaviour.

Should be fixed in Alpha 11.

Greeba77 commented 1 month ago

Yay! Will watch and confirm, many thanks.

Greeba77 commented 5 days ago

Confirmed this is fixed in A11, though there may be a side effect in the drone behaviour changes, see here: https://github.com/Introversion-Software/LastStarshipIssues/issues/318
