Drongos Drone Tweaks

Small drones are harder for the AI to spot (though not impossible). AI automatically deploy recon, FPV and grenade drones. Supports vanilla, Drongo's Artillery, Reaction Forces RC-40s and some [SEAL TEAM] DarkBall drones. Lot's of CBA options and an options module.

There is a readme in the mod folder. This file covers drone behaviour in more detail.

FEATURES

• Reduces visibility and audibility of small drones. AI can still spot them, but have a harder time doing so.
  
• AD can detect drones and engage them.
  
• If AI have a recon drone, they will automatically deploy it and receive information about any targets it detects.
  
• If AI have suicide or grenade drones, they will automatically deploy them to attack known enemies.
  
• If AI have RC-40 drones from Reaction Forces CDLC, they will automatically use them for recon and attack.
  
• CBA settings allow for tweaking deployment conditions and drone behaviour.
  
• Module for tweaking deployment conditions and drone behaviour.
  
• Infoshare module for drone groups to receive targets from other groups.

KNOWN ISSUES
Sometimes FPV and grenade drones take very indirect paths to the target. I have no idea what causes this.
