Planetary Drones shooting wrong direction #177

Open DexionSlayer opened 5 months ago

DexionSlayer commented 5 months ago

Reforged Eden 2 Build Number

Build 14

Game mode

Survival

Tested in vanilla

Not tested in vanilla or not applicable

Description of issue

Placed a Drone Bay (Planet) in my base, and 2 drone launchpads. Drones launch just fine, then aim themselves towards their targets but the projectile comes out a different direction than where they are aiming. Thus they are hitting nothing.

I recreated this on a fresh playthrough and diffirent planet same result. Can't try vanilla as the drone system simply does not exist in the form you have in RE2. 20240630033008_1

Might be hard to see but the projectile and explosion are behind the drone :(

Was late in the evening when I posted this and tried a diffirent drone, the Orbital Drone. However when attempting to put the drone in the drone bay you get the error message saying "Only armor boosts can be used here" followed by "Cannot put this item here" and "This item cannot be used here"

So can't test if the other drones have diffirent behaviour

You'd need to use a space drone bay for the space drones.

I am not even sure why this happens but I noticed it too.

I have no idea either, ive seen it in lesser form with some zirax troops but that might be 5% of the time

Just to add my report in here, this is 100% happening with all my planetary drones either launched from base or from CV. To the point where they can't protect my CV and it got shot up while I was in a POI. (just standard drones attacking)

Also note that they seem to have issues returning to my CV many times. Sometimes they can return but this last time they just hovered on the pad even after turning everything off. I had to delete the pad to get rid of them.

This still hasn't been fixed? :(

Not sure if this is related or not, but... On co-op multiplayer (local server), latest version as of 9/28 (Reforged Eden 2 Build 22) on Oscutune, me & my bro keep seeing hostile Zirax drones (Gatling Aerodrones) flying over us, facing us as if trying to attack, but their big bright baby blue (why? LOL) guns are pointed backwards, wiggling around like they're trying to aim at us, but failing.

There's zero challenge, despite us wanting a really rough start... They're just free spare parts we gotta shoot down. :(

EDIT TO CLARIFY: In this case, they don't seem to actually fire their weapons. Just can't seem to turn them around to face us.

ADDENDUM: A Siege Drone Gunship "attacked" our base, but once again wasn't firing at us (I couldn't tell if its guns were facing away or not). Was a free easy kill once more, along with the Gatling Aerodrones that came with it.

However, it seems the drones DO shoot at us in one particular case: If we're in our semi-enclosed hovercraft together. Then they shoot at said hovercraft! o_O

Could it be that in multiplayer, they don't know who to aim at, until we basically become merged with a single vehicle?

I just tested the same scenario & planet (different seed/game) in single player... And the nearby drones immediately shot me like they should. Aimed their guns in my direction (while I was on foot) & killed me dead!

My brother tried to test our actual MP map in single player, but the drones didn't come to play this time. Will post again if we get time to try that again.

(Do y'all want me to make a separate ticket for our case?)
