This  mod is a simple expansion to the Automaton mod.
It adds a new Feature "DroneCommander" which automatically commands the drones to harvest the selected Ressources if in range.

Prerequisites: Automaton Mod which can be found here: https://forums.atomictorch.com/index.php?topic=1097.0 (https://forums.atomictorch.com/index.php?topic=1097.0)
Mod type: Client Mod
Version: 0.1.3
Supported game version / Supported Automaton Mod version: 0.27.7.30 / 0.3.5
Download: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1p3GZtEvD97QzHksCSDF2Q5EDajtpDh2I/view?usp=sharing (https://drive.google.com/file/d/1p3GZtEvD97QzHksCSDF2Q5EDajtpDh2I/view?usp=sharing)
How to install:
1. Place Automaton.mpk and AutomatonDroneCommanderExpansion.mpk in the "Mods" folder located at %userprofile%\documents\AtomicTorchStudio\CryoFall
2. Edit "ModsConfig" located at %userprofile%\documents\AtomicTorchStudio\CryoFall which looks likes this:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" standalone="yes"?>
<mods>
  <mod>core_1.0.0</mod>
</mods>

by adding the following two lines:
<mod>automaton</mod>
<mod>automatonDroneCommanderExpansion</mod>

after the core, so it looks like this:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" standalone="yes"?>
<mods>
  <mod>core_1.0.0</mod>
  <mod>automaton</mod>
  <mod>automatonDroneCommanderExpansion</mod>
</mods>


Changelog:
06.08.2020:
- little improvment in which order the drones get send out - now it picks the one with most remaining durability first

08.08.2020:
- added the option to define a percentage threshold till which the Mod uses Items (Default: 0%.) With 1% the Mod will stop using drones/consoles if they have 1% durability remaining.

12.09.2020:
- changed visibility of the Feature class to public (forgot to declare it but necassary for my new mod).

I hope everything works fine and you'll like it :)

Note: Thanks to Chr for the Idea^^

This isn't working and disables all mods, unless I messed up implementing this and not the 6 other mods I use.

Ok, can you tell me which mods and which version of the mods you use?

Did you update your Automaton mod to 0.3.5?
Yes, you also can see it in the description.^^

I was asking chappy if he had updated his Automaton mpk as that is why it disabled his mods.

Great mod, I wasnt using drones because I must click in all trees and rocks before.
Can I make a request that will make life lots better? Can you make an add on to allow auto use water on farm and auto use fertilizer?

For watering plants i won't do it, because with sprinklers there is an already an easy option for that from the game itself.
And for fertilizing..haven't noticed many people even using fertilizer :D

When starting the game and doing a farm I always think about auto watering... just my 2 cents

Sprinklers is T4 tech, it comes so late.
When you make food for 10 in your party + cheese for permabuff you must use fert + water to maintain your farm small.

Are you still using this one, because there is a drone commander in automaton 0.4.1
