My drone control range is 129 km
My Drone optimal is over 130 km
Yet when I try shooting someone thats between 100 and 129 km range the drones will turn, flash yellow to my target but not shoot.
If I try shooting at something thats closer than 100km they will aggro and shoot - if the target then walks off over 100km they will keep shooting.
If I try shooting at something thats over 130km the game will tell me it outside my drone control range.
I have 49km base drone control range and am using 4 drone link augmentors (+80km) and 4 omnidirectional tracking links on a dominix.
Bug? Or am I just missing something?

I dont think they have stacking penalty -
As I said once they aggro at 99km and target flies away they still hit consistently up to 125km.
But they wont aggro against a target at 101km. So its not about stacking.

Activation proximity for sentry drones is 100km. They will not shoot if target far then 100km from them.

Yup, we both got screwed.
I also fitted my ship for some 155km gate camping.
Well... it turns out if you look at the drone attributes, they have an activation proximity range of 100km. So 100km is the max, no matter what you do.
I'm kinda ticked off about this since I had big plans for my sentries.

I think it has to do with the 100 km activation proximity attribute that I see on the sentry drones. It simply doesn't 'activate' on things more than 100 km away from it.

Well I think it relates to the distance between the target and the drone, not the target and the user. So if you put the sentries close to the gate (100km or less) and then move out to your personal sniping distance you'll be fine.

I think the whole thing with sentries is a little on the buggy side. First i think the 5% damage you get from the skill should be switched to a 10km boost to the control range just for sentries. that and CCP do the numbers on what the max range you can get them too Fire so the activation range can be fixed.

still, a tempest with quake ammo at 80km with sentry drones would be very nice

Buggy as all get out.
Hopefully Tuxford will fix it, but for all we know he may take the easy road and call ita "feature".
