'''Crashed ship parts''' drop as part of a map [[Event]]. A crashed ship part, accompanied by small [[fire]]s if the surrounding tiles support fire, lands at a random [[roof|unroofed]] location when the event triggers. These ship parts carry one of two negative effects, "[[Crashed ship parts#Psychic ship|psychic]]" or "[[Crashed ship parts#Defoliator ship|defoliator]]" (see below). | '''Crashed ship parts''' drop as part of a map [[Event]].

− | + | Upon landing a group of [[mechanoids]] will be surrounding the ship to defend it. The size of the group is dependent on colony wealth and storyteller difficulty (see [[raid points]]). They will spawn in a "sleeping" state, and will awaken only if they or the ship take damage, or if a player-built structure is placed too close to the ship part. Unless pursuing nearby targets, they will only move about 30 tiles away before returning to the ship part, and not all will move as a unit to chase a threat. Once the ship part's health drops too low, however, all mechanoids will simply charge your colonists like a normal raid. | |

+ | [[File:Ship_part_safe_build_radius.jpg|300px|thumb|right|Planned defenses close to a crashed ship part. The "no build" zone is highlighted here.]] | ||
+ | The "no build" zone is a bulged rectangle, with a base size of {14 wide × 9 high} plus an extra 1×6-tile row along the top/bottom of the ship part and an extra 1×3 column along each side. Placing any item or structure within this radius, such as a wall, sandbag or spike trap, will trigger the ship and mechanoids as if it had been fired upon. Objects placed or built outside of this radius will not affect it, so, if the threat is not immediate (i.e. the negative mood or plant-killing can be endured for the time being), the colony can build defenses prior to triggering the ship. [[IED trap|IED]]s and [[spike trap]]s can also be placed around the ship to instantly damage any mechanoids that emerge. | ||
− | Because of defending mechanoids' tendency to stay near the ship part, pawns equipped with sniper rifles can "kite" the defenders from a safe distance. This is done by advancing to fire at mechs around the ship part, retreating before they come close enough to shoot back, and advancing again once they return to the ship part. This is particularly effective against the slow-moving [[centipede]]s, whose firing range of 27 tiles pales in comparison to the 44.9 tile range of [[sniper rifle]]s. | + | Because of defending mechanoids' tendency to stay near the ship part, pawns equipped with sniper rifles can "kite" the defenders from a safe distance.

Waiting for passerby traders or raiders to engage the ship may be a viable strategy for colonies without access to stronger technologies such as [[mortar]]s. However, the mechanoids must be woken up first by damaging the ship or building in the ship's vicinity. | Waiting for passerby traders or raiders to engage the ship may be a viable strategy for colonies without access to stronger technologies such as [[mortar]]s.

− | This ship part contains a hostile [[persona core]] that emits a psychic drone that negatively affects the [[mood]] of all humans on the map. This drone begins at a "low" -12, but grows progressively stronger the longer the ship part remains, therefore it is advisable to destroy the part as quickly as possible. A colonist's psychic sensitivity [[trait]]s may worsen or lessen the effect of the drone. | + | This ship part contains a hostile [[AI persona core]] that emits a psychic drone that negatively affects the [[mood]] of all humans on the map.
