Skydrop flares exploding

[Tarkus0831]

So, I'm on a planet, after the tutorial of watchtower, and I can't use skydrops. The flares just explode like regular grenades. I open up the menu, and they program like regular flares, but when I get home throw them, they explode, and no skydrop happens. I bought some from Gren, and crafted my own. Same thing. Yes, I have skydrop modules installed on my fleet ship.

Do the skydrop flares blink a red light once they are thrown, or simply explode outright?

Which platform are you playing on? Could you please share your modlist with us?

Nope, they show up and act like a grenade.

I'm on Xbox. I can share a mod list when I get home later today!

Did you have grenades equipped before trying to arm a Skydrop Flare? How quickly did you exit out of the menu? I've found that if, after I select the type of flare, I exit the menus too quickly then whatever script is running doesn't have a chance to actually equip the specific type of flare.

I did not. I have zero throwables. Idk about quickly exiting the menu though.

Here's a video of my mod list and load order.

I should also mention, that this is a ng+ run. Went through the Unity, and took Torin with me. On my first play through, it worked fine. I also chose to skip the main story on this run.

One more thing. I noticed an item in my inventory, the skydrop flare case, is missing. I remember seeing that for most of my first play through. Don't know if thst matters.

Thanks for your help, I absolutely LOVE this mod!

Thank you, I've opened a ticket for this.

Do any of your weapon mods affect grenades?

 

[Tarkus0831]

Not that I'm aware of. I don't really use throawables. Later, I will take a look at the mods more closely. I think I know about which ones I installed after my first run through, and focus on those.

Thank you!

Ok, I played again today, and skydrops are working fine. I have no idea what changed or why.

Glad it's working - thanks for the update!
