- Permissions and credits
Description:
This Mod Places Tau Drone Companions in the Abandoned Tent (for Location: http://fallout.wikia.com/wiki/Abandoned_Tent).
They are levelling with the player and there are 5 of them all have a distortion effect under them (can't really see on the images)
WARNING you will need either science skill of 65 OR Robotics Expert Perk.
They can't heal themselves so you have to do it through dialog.
You can have them follow you, send them back to the Tent or tell them to wait (they will deliberately wander around near that location).
I've also included a Drone Homer in case you lose some of them (or they bug at worldspace transitions like Megaton main gate). This will place all active (following) drones.
Drone types:
2X Gundrone w. Twin-linked Pulse Carbines
1X Sniper Drone w Rail Rifle (I know Sniper Drones have different weap barrels but hell I like this more :) )
1X Shield Drone (non-combatant, shield gives +35% Damage Resistance to all of the drones the player and all vanilla companions IF they are inside)
1X Command-Link Drone (non-combatant, you can manage ALL of the OTHER Drones trough it, and you can activate stealth mode only through this Drone)
CLink Management functions:
- Repair*
- Wait*
- Go back to Tent*
- Summon (this 1 is similar to Homer but calls all the Waiting drones too and sets them to follow)
- Set Aggression on combat Drones
- Toggle shield on Shield Drone
- Toggle stealth mode (if you don't activate this, the Drones won't sneak even if you do)
(*only for ALL of the OTHER Drones who follow you)
Sneak mode:
If you activated Sneak mode, and you sneak when you are not in combat the Drones do too. They won't attack even if you do, to get them to support you stand up. If they started firing they won't stop even if you start sneaking again, only if there are no more enemies will they enter sneak mode again. (Ok they do start sneaking again sometimes when you do even in combat)
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Known Issues:
-The Drones sometimes disappeared for me as I passed thou Megaton Gate (Use the Homer if you run into this.)
-Drones sometimes switch back to Sneaking during combat when I start sneaking again (just stand up again :) it only happened twice for me)
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Installation:
Unzip it in Data folder then check both Tau Drone Companion.esp and Tau Ammo.esm
Note: I've moved the Tau Empire Faction to the master file so if you use Ammo vendor I've included a new Tau ammo vendor.esp file to prevent conflicts. If you don't use ammo vendor mod DONT check Tau Ammo vendor.esp, cuz extra files are not included.
UPDATE: looks like ive updated an old version and thos disabling the Photon Grenade reward chioce. uploaded a fixes esp for it. (Thx for rylasasin for leting me know)
