This is probably a display bug, but I wanted to be sure.
I'm a relative new player and have been stocking up on drone skills in preparation for the expansion. Haven't used drones much before, so there is probably a known reason for this.

When my Warrior IIs are inside my tristan their stats are showing to have 298hp structure. When I launch them and check their stats in space they only have 173 hp. Why is this? Essentially it seems like they loose the ship bonus.

I see similar differences on my vexor.

Just to be on the safe side I would advise you to post this problem in the Retribution 1.0 issues thread. There might be others encountering the same problem.

That is normal. You only see base attributes on objects in space (no skills or bonuses applied).

A wild guess is that it is to reduce database queries (imagine a system with thousands of ships, drones, and missiles in flight, all with unique stats having to be transferred to every client in viewing range).

Thank you, I figured it would be that easy. Now I know :)
