    What are some of the biggest challenges that you had when working on the drones?

    Was there anything that really threw a wrench in the works?

    Or was it overall kind of just smooth sailing as you developed them?

  2. Tobias

    uh yeah i mean there's there's a lot of challenges with it because it's such a big feature um you basically need to keep in mind everything that can go wrong as you're working on it so for example uh what happens if you dismantle all the stations in the world and then you just have your drone stuck in the air what happens if you dismantle a drone which is

    docked at a station and all kinds of things like that.

    And even just like having two drones arrive at the same station at the same time, what should happen in that case?

  3. Jace

    So it's all about like those weird edge cases, I guess.

  4. Tobias

    Yeah, exactly.

    And you need to keep them all in mind at all times during development as well.

  5. Jace

    Right, right.

    Sounds rough.

    So I guess

  6. Tobias

    it

  7. Jace

    was that and the pathing, I guess, was the other biggest thing.

  8. Tobias

    Yeah.

    And just making them work in general.

    So there's a lot of moving parts to this feature.

  9. Jace

    Nice, nice.

    Must feel good to have got it all together.

  10. Tobias

    Oh yeah, for sure.

    Yeah.
