This mod causes dedicated server to freeze and not start/load into the world

#

Logs stop on this and then it just freezes, so whatever is loaded next probably. Might be a conflict with another mod but I didn't verify.

Ditto Bacon. After yesterday's update, I had to completely remove the drones to get the server to run with exactly the same problem he has.

Ensure you are grabbing the recon drone and not a dropper.

Thank You for the drone-mods! Absolutely amazing! I wonder, why I cannot load drones into a vehicle. I tried to load them as such or inside a backpack but they did not remain inside the trunk. Instead, they were laying on the groud, when vehicle moved away. Any advice?

If you can leave them in a backpack but I'll write that logic in, currently whenever they leave your inventory it spawns the drone.

I’m friends with the developer of the armed drones mod he’s no longer developing it after issues with bohemia. The framework is still being developed by salami but the actual drone mod is no longer being maintained

@wooden sierra this?

What’s up @opaque umbra!
Your work is awesome!
I tested the drone in Game Master, and it was a lot of fun.
I do have a problem, though. I’m creating a conflict scenario based on RHS, and the drones or controllers aren’t showing up in the arsenals. I copied everything from the armeddrones30 entity catalog to my USMC/RHS_MSV catalogs, but they’re still not there (I did override the RHS catalog).
any ideas?

Will add that this error was right under those. It appears to pertain to CRX Enfusion and I already reached out to the dev of that mod and he is looking into it too. My guess is some CRX AI script is interacting somehow with the AI character your mod spawns in the drone.

He sure did! That's why I never said anything negative or pushy. Just letting IronPot know he isn't alone. When troubleshooting issues like these, it's very helpful to know others are experiencing the same issues. I'm just here to help, no negativity from me.
