Sweeper Drone
General Info
Description Launches a swarm of drones to sweep materials from the ground.

Sweeper Drones can gather material for you from a defined area.


Mechanics

When the Sweeper Drones are selected, clicking and holding the mouse button will allow you to mark material you wish to be gathered. This material does not have to all be the same - if it's grabbable, it can be selected.

When the mouse button is released, you are prompted to set a drop-off zone. The material will be swept up and deposited there.

The drones will make multiple trips if there is to much material to be swept in one go.

If you are near the drop-off zone, you can reassign it to a new location while the drones are active.

There is no way to cancel the drones.

Tips

Sweeper Drones can only drop-off material into empty space - it is best to designate your drop-off to be on a conveyor belt, or above plenty of open space, so that repeated trips have space to deliver your material.

If the drop-off area is not clear, the drones will hover waiting for it to become available.

Material marked to be swept will be highlighted in green. Material due to be swept on the next pass will be highlighted in red.
