repair station and the combat drone

In the old patches you can place the repair station inside some flots or space astroeds so that the enemy cannot hit it.

 

in the recent patches I think they are trying to avoid that so they made it inavailable to place a repair station when there are obstacles in front of your engineer. 

 

However, when I press the button to activate the module, even when the message showed on the screen that I could not place the drone, it still cost me the same amount of energy to drop the station. and made it not possible when I turned away my ship and tried to activate it in the right place due to low energy.

 

So, could you made it not to cost energy when you cannot drop the station but press the activate button?

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

the second problem is about the combat drone. I think that when pressing F, one combat drone overdrives and should repair all ships within a certain distance. But when I was doing pve with my friends sometimes I realized only 1 or even none of them was repaired when I pressed F. And I am 10000% sure that they are within the repair range. Did this problem happened to you guys?

SOTG the repair range is now ~500m . Are you sure they were THAT close?

pretty sure I was ramming them.

 

Could it because that they were behind obstacles? I will check out that later.

 

THanks for the reminding anyway.

does the sacrificing of a drone heal others? 

 

:what:

Yes.

:facepalm:

Too late a realization, man. Now that F button on your engy is only as good as a shield booster.

I don’t think Engineer’s F module heal allies anymore. I haven’t been able to heal anyone but myself at ANY distance.

It still heals, I can confirm this with 100% certainty.

:smiley: Although the range makes it “fun” finding a hidey hole somewhere close by =)

If no good spot to be, Evil Tactician is good at saving my skin <3

the description on the function does say it heals allies… I feel like a dumbass having played a engineer for a lot of the time and being pretty good at it and never knowing its

Combat drone healing range is around 500 meters now. Which is quite a ridiculously low range to be usable in the heat of the moment. 

 

I can understand 2.5Km was too much, but maybe there is a sweet spot between the two?

it was ~1.3km before, but they nerfed it again because apparently it was still too good…
