With introduction of the drone command came Surveillance Drone says it allows stealth units to be targeted.

Well then why does is not work on anything truthfully. If I have this as an active defense drone directive it should be able to target commando, tactical helicopter, recon etc. There no point to surveillance drone otherwise. Currently it is not doing any of the above so either fix it or replace it with something else

My first time hearing of this, please submit a ticket to the CS Team so it can be tracked if you haven't already.

If strictly Towers aren't targeting stealth units then that directive isn't working. The directive only applies to Towers.

It does say by just towers it should allow everything defender has to target. ( which AA towers didn’t target Recons or Tactical last time I tried it out.) . Yes I am stretching it absolutely using the wording desperate defender I am. But it says it targets stealth units even if commando is in camo armor it should be targeted cause it does not state except for commando wearing armor .

If it was true Surveillance drone then Sam’s etc would target recon and tactical plus would allow traps to be triggered by commandos. Should be active 24hrs/7 like Surveillance should. Ie makes stealth units targetable meaning Sam lasers would be able to target and last time I checked visible or invisible step on landmine it goes boom. Oh btw it should be the entire base is alerted last time I checked would be more accurate that what alarms would do.

Eventually BHG needs to focus on defenders for something everything is on O side. ( sorry for being crybaby but truly at my limits) I am trying to find something to help with the OP Bombers, Demo, and commando. I am defender right now there is nothing for us to play for to be flatten in 2:30 or less. Sorry I am frustrated like every other defender. So yes it saying towers only, I want my traps and everything to target. ( my home surveillance works soon as anything is detected why not the drone ) by using surveillance drone means I am dropping valuable directive there is where balance comes in.

Again my frustration is not @Harlems this is me grasping at straws for anything to balance scales.

Right the Surveillance directive is limited to only the Towers. But it may be worthwhile to expand the directive to other buildings as well. Appreciate the feedback.
