When I place the Scifi Pack Drone bomber on the map all looks Ok, but when I test run it turns blue.
After I exit the test run it remains blue in the editor and disappears when moused over.
see attach pics & vid.

All the other Drones seem OK and do not do this.

I am using Public Preview Build 2018.11.26 November Update


Does anyone have an idea on what may be causing this and how I might correct it?

Thank you in advance.

There is a problem with the Drones since the last AI update.
Its been reported on GitHub so were going to have to wait for the fix ..
Sorry ..

All ok now
was a simple fix
just added these 2 lines to the Drone Bomber FPE so it match the other Drones

FULLBOUNDS = 1
CPUANIMS = 1


Should have investigated further before raising this sorry.

@synchromesh
I only fixed the turning blue problem with the change to the FPE .
I am not using the standard Luas' as I am currently interested in swarm behaviour not combat.

I had a quick look at the standard scripts; for some silly reason they are using the standard npc combat stuff , lets face it these things are supposed to be machines not people and do not have animations.
They fly above ground not walk/run on it (hence they burying themselves when instructed to walk) basically there is no logic to correctly deal with the y axis .
