[0.10.6] Wrong number of these drones

Post by hauk70 »

After studying the technology of "Fighting robots 3" (opens capsule "Destroyer") limit the number of robots on followed me immediately becomes 9, while the study by the number of followers was only on level 3 (in the screenshot has 5 levels and should be 5 robots) This a bug or the way it should be?)

PS This text was translated by Google translator and there may be mistakes, so sorry.

PSS screenshots also with Russian localization of craftsmen: 3

Not a bug.

You always have more robots than the number on the research.

At 0 research you still get 1 robot.

At 20 research you get 134 robots!

It's just rather confusing the way it's setup right now. I had the same issue trying to figure it out, and then trying to understand how high my limit was WITHOUT deploying a combat robot.

I think you can't see that value without deploying robots.

The number of follower robots by research level:

Anyway, it is not a bug, so I'm moving the topic.
