Hanns	Posted - 2004.04.11 21:11:00 - [1] I engaged a thorax at 15k, with a MWD in my crow interceptor, his drones started to shoot, and continued to shoot at 90km at this point my ship blew up over 90km away from the drones, this is lame, fix it plz!
John Rackham	Posted - 2004.04.12 11:44:00 - [2] It¦s not lame u have to warp away before you are safe. The drones will follow you all the way if you do not warp out. Keep that in mind next time you attack. Drones are nasty.
ElCoCo	Posted - 2004.04.12 12:42:00 - [3] I think he knows that man... The sad thing is drones don't even "follow" you that far, but they hit consistantly even when you're100km away from them. That's the issue. They cannot hit you at first if you're out of their attack range but if you enter it and then start flying away they keep on shooting... they don't miss much shots either
Toastmaster	Posted - 2004.04.12 23:51:00 - [4] They dont miss any shot at all to be precise They have unlimited range and tracking speed The only limit is your skill to tell them to start attack... Then they will shoot and hit until the target warps or host ship is dead "viper zulu > toast has killed our whole corporation ships at least once"

Yes, this bug will be fixed. Unfortunately, its way down the list of things to do. -- Richard CCP Programmer. Anything said above is not the official line, but my own take or opinion.

Yes, this bug will be fixed. Unfortunately, its way down the list of things to do. To be honest, if this is not fixed then elite frigates wich cost millions are pretty much useless since not many are willing to risk their hard to get interceptors to drones wich are bugged. Perhaps until a better fix can be done then disable drone locks above 20km ? *Spawn of the Devil*

Yes, this bug will be fixed. Unfortunately, its way down the list of things to do. one wonders what could be above such a flaw in "the list?" Defenders working for everyone except players...? Hybrid MegaScorpAvenTempOlypse graphics bug? Slaying the Lagmonster and mounting his head on the wall...? It's gonna be something important as regards useability, right? You are in a maze of twisty little asteroids, all alike.
Phaethon	Posted - 2004.04.13 16:40:00 - [8] Edited by: Phaethon on 13/04/2004 16:48:43 Nah.. More likely a new way of sorting things in dropdown menu's and the scanner window. Or that fabled red/orange-more-like-yellow'ish self-destruct-with-no-warning button next to the autopilot. ahmm anyway. Maybe we would all feel a bit better if there were some kind of bug tracking page where you could also see the status of the bugs. A page like that might also cut down on the many double or triple threads about the same bug, as people would be able to see that. A) it's a known bug, B) it's being worked on and C) it is or is not percieved as being an extremely-important-and-needs-a-rollback-to-be-fixed-right-now kind of bug. All there is needed pr bug is A name (say drones fire well beyond their range) Needs more logfiles to identify the problem? TQ:no Chaos:no Status: Problem identified, priority 3 or something (later) fix slated for next chaos patch. (later again) Fix status on chaos: needs more testing WTB. Infifitrator I drones
Athule Snanm	Posted - 2004.04.13 18:16:00 - [9] It does seem strange that a bug that could cause someone to lose their ship should be 'way down the list' :-( _______________________________ Doomheim - EVE's only hygiene!

Any particular reason you didn't warp out? I'd agree this is a nasty, pain-in-the-ass bug (which does look like it should be relatively easy to fix) but it only occurs when you're already well out of warp-scramble range (and frigs/interceptors are fast enough to make range quickly) and too far away from the engagement to be of any further combat use. ____________________________________

Unless u have warpcores which most frigate pilots dont cause they take 10 power to equip.
Gaius Kador	Posted - 2004.04.14 02:33:00 - [13] THIS is not a low priority fix, it should be considered WAY up there... :/ ----------------------------------------------
Dark Stranger	Posted - 2004.04.14 05:46:00 - [14] CCP's To-Do list stolen from their offices... 1. Change the speed dial to Domino's Pizza 2. Stop the flickering time on the VCR 3. Impliment wiper blade graphics for all the windows of EVE ships. 4. Order chinese 5. Put the chinese place on the speed dial. 6. Have server clusters start harvesting PRoN from the internet. 7. Tape the seinfeld rerun. 8. Develope nerf railguns to sell in the EVE store. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ 99. Sleep with a Tihuana hooker named Rob. 100. Fix drones. As one could very easily see. CCP has a lot to do, and it might take a bit for them to get around to fixing drones. J/K of course guys. But in all fairness this is a pretty big issue.

And quite a bit higher than it was on Richard's. ~Eight
