What can make Shepard drone tenders more aggressive, including game mods?
« on: October 06, 2020, 12:06:52 PM »
I put reckless officers in a group of Shepards to tear up the one or two sized [REDACTED] scouts which is very doable but they never change their AI pattern as if they had no officers at all. One is targeted by a ship and the rest stay far back behind it. They all have sabots so would clean up these tiny scout patrols.

You might try putting an offensive ballistic weapon (not a PD weapon) on it.  I think that causes a behavior change.

Also, Automatic Orders mod:

is fantastic, and lets you assign an aggression level to ships without needing an officer.
