So you have to give the drone an attack order for it to shoot nans at its target?

How does the AI targetting work anyway, can you get drones to always target the nearest friendly?

Usually though, "skill" is used to covertly mean "match the game exactly to my level of competence." Anyone who is at all worse than me should fail utterly (and humorously!) and anyone better is clearly too caught up in the game and their opinions shouldn't count.

you don't give it the attack order - you give it the repair order.

Don't know how the targeting works though.

No, you must order it to nan a specific target. It will follow the target around like a little puppy the rest of the game, even waiting outside bases for the miner to relaunch. If it becomes idle (say the miner dies) it will attempt to attack enemy targets with its nan.......thus healing them.

Yeah, the code could use some refinement - I'd do it if I could, but I've got no clue on how
