Drones

2026 UPDATE: Apologies for abandoning this mod for the past 8 months. I know a lot of people enjoy it, and I really appreciate the sentiments. I just haven't had the time to dedicate to it recently, but I heard proxy13127 is working on his own version based on this mod, which I fully endorse. I'm not involved with it, and he'll release it on his own schedule.

PSA: Backup your save files before installing or updating mods!

Use the DRONES APP to purchase drone stations, and drones for your properties. Use them to:

• []Deliver product to customers, and dealers

  []Transfer anything between properties

  []Take control and fly your drones manually in first-person and explore the world from the sky!

  NOTE: Currently, drone stations can only be purchased for these properties: Bungalow, Barn, and Docks Warehouse.

  OTHER FEATURES:

  • []Employees can route to and from stations so you can keep them fully stocked

    []Add up to 9 drones to divide the job pool, and configure them for a specific task (delivery, or transfer)

    []Watch the live feed of the drones working in the app!

  IMPORTANT:
  • []Single-player only!

    []Intended for regular branch (not Alternate/Mono)

    Future Plans:

    • []Deliver items between properties (COMPLETE!)

      []Restock dealers (COMPLETE!)

      []Drone races

      []Police drones

      []Drone upgrades, customization

      Known issues:

      • []Properties can sometimes become unowned (suspected/unconfirmed mod conflict). Saves are backed up automatically for now.

        []For some players, drone stations are not purchasable.

        []Drones don't do deliveries during sleep, let drones finish day's contracts before you sleep

        []Closest drone may not be the one that picks up and delivers

        []Character meshes sometimes bug out in the drone view (issue with base game, may not be fixable)

        []Characters can disappear or turn into billboards when observed far away from player (due to LOD)

        []Some meshes allow the drone to fly through them, like tall buildings (investigating this)

      • Drone can sometimes get stuck under bridges, requiring manual assistance (there's an unstuck button now)
