DroneV2 Module

The droneV2 module is a specialized expansion of the standard drone controls. It is designed for complex automation tasks that require direct coordinate access and mechanical state management.

Unlike the standard drone.move() which only moves one tile at a time, V2 hardware allows for direct navigation to specific coordinates.

Function	Input	Description
`droneV2.goto(x, z)`	`number, number`	Teleports the drone to navigate directly to the specified coordinates.

Example: Returning to Base

-- Instantly return to the center of the map
droneV2.goto(0, 0)
player.sent("Drone has returned to charging station.")

🔒 Mechanical Locking

Locking prevents the drone from moving. This is useful for “parking” your drone while you edit scripts or during specific weather events.

Function	Returns	Description
`droneV2.lock()`	`void`	Disables all drone movement.
`droneV2.unlock()`	`void`	Re-enables drone movement.
`droneV2.isLocked()`	`boolean`	Returns `true` if the drone is currently locked.

lau-compiler.exe

if not droneV2.isLocked() then
    droneV2.lock()
    print("Status: Movement Locked")
end

OUTPUT:

Status: Movement Locked

🔄 Crop Manipulation

The V2 module introduces the ability to physically shift crops across your field without destroying them.

Function	Input	Description
`droneV2.swap(dir)`	`Enum.Direction`	Shifts the crop currently beneath the drone one tile in the specified direction.

✨ Animations & Effects

These functions trigger mechanical animations and visual effects.

Function	Description
`droneV2.doBig()`	Plays an animation that temporarily enlarges the drone.
`droneV2.doSpin()`	Causes the drone to perform a rapid 360-degree spin.
`droneV2.doWobble()`	Triggers a “wobble” or “shiver” animation.

💡 Practical Example: The Grid-Safe Harvester

This script uses V2 locking to ensure the drone doesn’t move while the player is checking the inventory.

-- Navigate to a specific high-value coordinate
droneV2.goto(13, -13)

-- Lock drone for safe processing
droneV2.lock()

if drone.canCrop() then
    drone.crop()
    droneV2.doSpin() -- Celebrate the harvest
end

-- Unlock and return
droneV2.unlock()
droneV2.goto(0, 0)
