Defence Drone X4 Foundations Wiki Fandom Defence drones are consumable equipment for ships. on stations, the station manager will handle them automatically if you set the appropriate number in the station's logical overview. defence drones are only deployed within the high attention range, meaning they launch when the player is nearby. Just to add to what has already been said, you may want your drones in "escort" mode, which keeps them all launched. you can then set a formation (like a v, for example), and they will follow your ship in that formation and engage enemies that are in close range.
X4 Foundations Terran And Loop Economies Explained However, since i've started using drones, it has been quite handy giving the enemy something else to shoot at. at the end of the fight i switch them back to 'disarmed' & any surviving drones return & dock. Worked out how to use defense drones and they're amazing : r x4foundations. x4 is a living, breathing space sandbox running entirely on your pc. thousands of ships and stations trade, mine and produce, all realistically simulated. Defense drones are auto launched by stations and ships which come under attack (or launch an attack themselves) and can be set to attack or defend their bases. they are essentially small ships with a laser attached which they use to fight. In x4 foundations, drones have an automatic deployment system based on threat detection. defense drones are programmed to auto launch when the parent ship or station is under attack or initiates an attack, relying on criteria like the ship's engaging activity and potential threats to nearby allies.

Defence drones launch automatically when the ship or station is attacked. they deploy from s class docking bays, engage enemies, and support the ship's or station's turrets. Wares can be transferred using cargo drones between ships or where stations lack appropriate docking modules. defense drones will be deployed to help attack nearby enemies. Drones refuse to attack anything larger than an m class ship, and they mostly just refuse to launch at all. the only way i have found to get drones to reliably fight is to start out with some command other than escort, then switch to escort, then switch to an attack command. Advanced battlefield tactical command has been transformed by the evolution of defence drones. once little more than cannon fodder, a drone swarm is now a formidable defensive capability.
