Well it would be great to have player controlled Drones for Carriers (to make carriers useful in combat and give them purpose instead of attacking a battleship)
Drones will attack your target within 10k Range. There will be 2 Type of Drones: Fighter Drone - Bomber Drone
Also There will be 2 type of Fighter Drone and Bomber Drone
Fighter Drones;
Heavy Fighter Drone: 4x 2.00 Weapons
Light Fighter Drone: 4x 4.00 Weapons
Bomber Drones;
Antimatter Drone: 1x SNAC
Nova Drone: 1x Nova Torpedo
Carriers will carry them as ammunition, they have to buy Drones from Bases and Carriers will have different amount of Drone Slots
Like biggest Carrier will have 4 Drone Slot and smallest Carrier will have 1 Drone Slots
Carriers can go with Full Bomber Drone setup or Full Fighter or Bomber,Fighter setup.
Max Drone Deploy Limit is 5
if your carrier equipped with 4 Bomber Drone Bay then you'll have 40 Bomber Drone in your bay but you can deploy only 5 Drone
How to Deploy Drones?
If possible drones will be deployed by clicking fire button(right click)
If not;
/deploy type amount
e.g;
/deploy fighter 5
or
/deploy bomber 5
Commanding Drones should be like this;
/attacktarget
All Drones will attack your target
/attacktargetb
All Bombers will attack your target
/attacktargetf
All Fighters will attack your target
/formation
All Drones will enter formation with your ship
/calldrones
All Drones will dock with your ship
/callbombers
Bomber Drones will dock with your ship
/callfighters
Fighter Drones will dock with your ship
Fighter Drones should have very high maneuver to survive against highly skilled players
Fighter Drones should carry only 4 Weapon that fires 2.00 or 4.00 weapons
Bomber Drones should slow and big but have very high hitpoints (like 70-100k)
Bomber Drones should carry 1 antimatter or 1 nova torpedo
About Carriers;
Changing their anti-battleship weapons (Heavy and Primary) with Drone Slots would be great but they will have Secondary weapons to defend themselves
Carriers will be support ships, they have to stay away from battlefield and support friendly ships with Drones
Is this a good idea or not?
I don't know if this possible with current Freelancer Mechanism, I hope it is possible
