I just logged in to the Chaos server to test out if the Scout Drone Operation has been fixed and it still appears to be broken.
With level 4 in Scout Drone Operation I can send my scout drones a mighty 20,200m instead of the usual 20,050m at level 1
Looks to me that the 50% bonus is used wrong in the calculation somewhere and is giving +50m per level instead of +10km (which would be 50% of the 20km base range for drones).

The skill specifically states '+10k range of the drones', NOT +10k per level.
The bonus is a bit odd, but the range is behaving right according to the description. It ain't over till the fat lady falls on ya!

No, this is not working correctly.
I have Scout Drone Operation at level three. This implies I can order my drones to a distance of at least 30km (probably should be 40km?). This is, however, not the case. I cannot order my drones to a target if it is more than 20km distant. Oddly, the drones will attack a target 30km away if I fire upon it first (without ordering them to).
So, while the drones have the range (they'll not become dormant if 30km away), this range is of little use when I am unable to directly order them that far. This skill needs to be fixed as there is little point in training it past level one. Oh, and while you're at it, fix the Mining Drone Operation skill. Please. I implore you. Thanks much.

this distance only works for Heavy drones i believe so light, medium cant use the bonus and go beyond the 20km Big pimpin |

Um.. the ordering range doesn't work for heavies either. I've operated every drone available in the game, and none of them behave correctly with respect to the scout drone operation skill.
To reiterate, this skill simply does not function properly.

Quote: The skill specifically states '+10k range of the drones', NOT +10k per level.
Well, using that same reasoning the Mining skill should only be giving a flat 5% bonus and not +5% per level: "Skill for mining asteroids. +5% Bonus to mining yield.". So I don't think all the skill descriptions should be taken too literally
I'm pretty sure the Scout Drone Operation skill is broken, as it certainly worked that way before; the skill increased the range of the drones per level. It been broken since one of the earlier patches before 1165.

Been broken since 1123...
Just because we are paranoid, doesn't mean you're not out to get us. |

Edited by: Jarjar on 21/08/2003 14:55:45 ALL skills are per level, otherwise the description is bugged.
