Autodrones- Autodrones are unpiloted, tiny things, generally used for two purposes: defending private property and messenging. A simple craft. It comes in two classes: messenger class (unarmed, equipped with hyperdrive) or defender class (interplanetary drive, small laser). Defender autodrones frequently defend junkyards and graves. Messenger autodrones sometimes deliver personal messages, sometimes they deliver journals, and sometimes deliver 'insensitive' military information. However, couriers are still used by the militaries to deliver more sensitive information. Autodrones are sometimes used as combat craft (held in the cargo hold and released during combat from the mothership), but the AI onboard these craft isn't too smart, so this practice is rare. Autodrones that do different jobs are painted differently. However, only Defenders and Messengers have standardized colors.
