Re: [2.0.7] Spidertrons disappearing
Thanks for the report. I think your spidertrons were killed but didn't create the destroyed entity alert.

I got a closer look at it. I don't think it's supposed to die that quick. It should have 3 Mk 2 shields.

Re: [StrangePan][2.0.7] Spidertrons disappearing
Indeed, I also believe the spidertrons just died. The blue corpse can be spotted briefly in the video, and I suspect the red corpse is perfectly situated underneath the enemy spawner corpse so that it's very difficult to see in the video.
However, the deaths are not reported because the spidertrons are probably killing themselves with their own rockets. That also explains why they are dying incredibly fast. It seems that rockets are dealing friendly fire to spidertrons. (Edit: this is the true bug)

Re: [StrangePan][2.0.7] Spidertrons disappearing
This issue should be fixed in the next release. Thanks again for the report!
Edit: to clarify, the issue that is fixed is that Spidertrons are taking TOO MUCH damage from the explosive rockets they are firing. They will continue to take some self-inflicted damage, but the damage has been vastly reduced. Still, it may be wise to mix in some stacks of non-explosive rockets into your Spidertrons.
