The solution is to pay attention to what you're doing & not have them set to aggressive. There is no exploit happening here.

Does drones on agressive mode supposed to attack any suspect while safety on green (if no MTU involved).



The drones are attacking the suspect because the suspect is attacking one of the mission runners assets. This is also working as intended.

and the drones consider the mtu to be an extension of the player which has been agressed, just like another drone say.
this one is easy man, really.

keep you drones on passive and manage them.

This will be declared an exploit and fixed. If you think about it for two or three seconds, you'll understand why. Of course I can be wrong, but the train already started rolling. Imagine the armada that will use this to their advantage...

I won't touch this until I know it's NOT going to be declared an exploit.

Nobody forced you to set drones to aggressive.

It is more likely that nothing will change, including the average highsec players inability to adapt.

I know it seems otherwise when drones have been ridiculously broken for a long time but when something set to aggressive is actually aggressive it's probably working as intended.

Sup.

There is no bug. Most of the players who die to this are the ones who go into a mission, drop drones, MTU and then go AFK. There is no forcing someone to enter a limited engagement. Green safety setting means you will not do anything to cause yourself to be suspect and it is doing that. Now if you decide to set your drones to 'shoot anything that will not get me Concorded or flagged as suspect'... Guess what? They won't do any of that. But they will go for valid targets. Someone flagged as suspect is a valid target for anyone. That is the entire pint of the crime watch system.

And to make your noodle cook a bit more, there is even players putting on tin badges, forming a gang with other random high sec players. Behold, PvP. And for the first time, high sec players are enforcing the law instead of Concord having to jump in.

That is simply amazing.

Which is a completely different case. Last I've checked, a falcon is not a structure and actually needs a pilot. You're too aggressive. It's a game. Go get some self respect. Bye.
