Drone Event 1.1.5

A useful thing would be an option to highlight the loot so players can find it easier like the ones used on the gas station event. or how the ping function works.

Hey! Thanks for the suggestion for improvement, I'll put it on the list and maybe add it later

Could you add an option to spawn more then 1 drone ? Cause i like this plugin but for example at gas station will be enough 1 drone , but launch site bigger so at least 3-4 ... 
Just a question , cause i think it would be great.

Now this option is not available, later I can add support for the SimpleLootTable plugin, then it will be possible to change the display names for items

Would you be able to add the line

"displayname (blank for default)": ""

Or however you want to format it.

I already use another loot manager, and I would like to set it so certain custom items only spawn from the drones.

It is possible, but it will break previously created configurations. Why don't you want to use SimpleLootTable? It shouldn't affect your loot tables and it doesn't load the server

As far as i know, you can't use more than one loot manager.
I already use one that does pretty much everything I need for loot with an in game editor.
It handles containers, NPCs, pickups, stacks sizes, harvesting, and some other plugin loot tables.
Nothing against your plugin, I'm just lazy and kinda dependent on my current.

As far as it breaking the config, users would just need to paste the new line into the appropriate location.
Just copy it, then click, enter, CTRL+V, and repeat till finished.
I know it will be a tedious process for some depending on the size of the table.
But I think it will be a great addition for servers with a lot of custom loot.

ok, I'll think about it, maybe I'll add it later. As for SimpleLootTable, if you don't change the config, it won't affect the loot in any way and won't affect the work of other plugins related to loot

Currently having an issue with my drones not spawning after a restart, if I manually use DRErespawndrones they appear just fine, otherwise they don't spawn for me

hi, after restarting the plugin, all drones will be destroyed and will spawn only after some time (respawntime, which is specified in the config)

I have used this plugin on other's servers before and really enjoy it. I noticed since this month's update it was not attacking players with the pistol, but it could be configured to use the grenades just fine. I bought it for my own server today and even on a fresh server, the drones will not attack players with the default revolver set in the config. I do know turret configs can interfere with this plugin, but I am not running any. I do have the Convoy Reforged and Armored Train running to not shoot first, but that is the only possible thing I can think of that would conflict. Have the rust devs trashed something that makes your plugin work in the recent Medieval update?

I checked the drone event, drones attack normally with my set of plugins. Please test which plugin affects this, if you have such an opportunity

That's odd. I know before the Drone Turrets from White Thunder had a setting that allowed turning off attacking other players, and that would make your drones also not attack players. I had disabled several plugins and checked the Drone Event, but since you said it still works, I will go through every mod in my list to see which one could be doing this.

I did a test on oxide, a drone with a nailgun attacked me with nails. Maybe there is a problem with some specific types of weapons

I unloaded all 60 plugins on my server and tried reloading the Drone Event with no joy. I changed the pistol.revolver to pistol.m92 and it still didn't attack. I see you commented about the nailgun, I will try that next. I also wiped the .cs file and re-downloaded a fresh one. I'll post a screencap of the business end of my config just in case I'm overlooking something obvious.

Tried the pistol.nailgun for the Turret Weapon and it did not work. I am running oxide server also, but I may need to wait until next wipe to clean install the server. Thank you for looking at it though. But I think I have spent more hours working on this than it deserves lol

Please send me your config file in PM, I will check it

Just a public update to my issue, after the wipe and latest update, everything is working again? This one was really an X-File for sure. I did crap my pants when I went in on a fresh wipe and got attacked with nades and a nailgun at the same time.:)
