Drones from Drone Event can no longer be hit (but are targetable)

Hi, I just recently experienced an issue with the missiles getting a lock on the drones from Drone Event, but always turn away from the target as though they had deployed countermeasure like a Heli would. Happens every time. I've tried on a new wipe, both plugins up-to-date, and still can't get them to hit. Every other targetable entity seems to still work, though.

Hi! I checked, everything works correctly. Maybe something with the config. Try resetting the config to default and testing. Let me know the results, please

Hmmm, that does seem to have fixed the outright diversion from the target, but they do occasionally fly circles around the drones then speed off into the distance until they detonate. Is that expected (sometimes)? Thanks.

If you changed the speed in the config: the drone speed will be too high or the rocket speed will be too high, then this can happen. Sometimes the homing missile can behave like this(fly in circles) even with the default settings, but this happens extremely rarely

Excellent explanation, thanks! I think this is what may have bee happening. I will play with drone speed a bit and see if I can eliminate that behavior.

Let me know the results later please

Hi, I had to lower rocket speed to 40 to reliably keep it from circling the drone. It hits 99% of the time now.

If this solution completely suits you, then with your consent, I will close this support request.

Yes, we're good. Thank you!
