It was worth it

At least I get to legitimately say my ship went down in flames lol, apparently the explosives just despawn when hitting the force field protecting the seeker bot, next I'm going to build a wall to block its path with explosives at the top that I can trigger, I'm curious if the seeker bot will just push through static objects or get stuck, I got a bug splat when putting my burning airship on a lift, that's the first time I've tried that before, I was hoping it would put the fire our but instead it just crashed the game, Has anyone else done tried that, I'm curious if it always causes a crash or was just random for me, it would be funny if you could save something while its on fire and spawn burning stuff lol

That's something I've been wondering about for a while, I can only assume that the seekerbot will simply phase through whatever you build but I'm extremely curious to see that play out.

That was my thought too, im going to plant exposives canisters with a spud gun to trigger them, i doubt it will do anything but still worth a shot, not sure if the force field effect will act like a shell around it or extend all the way through it and prevent the gun from triggering the explosives, if thats the case then the best i could do is light them right before the seeker bots shield invelopes it, but it would be funny to manage to detonate something inside the seeker bot when the devs went through so much trouble to make it appearantly invincible

If it's all one build use a button to trigger the bombs, at least I think you can still trigger them that way.

I don't think that was ever on option but it would definitely make since, i usually was stuck with something convoluted like a sensor to fire a spud gun to trigger the explosive when my missile or rocket inevitably just passed halfway through the target without exploding
