Extinguisher Drone

Description
Adds a firefoam hunter drone which seeks out nearby fires.
The drone rushes to the flames, bursts with Firefoam.

Requires research: Firefoam and Hunter Drone.
Activates when a reachable fire or ignited pawn is detected within range.
Does not consider pawn faction — will extinguish fires on animals and enemies as well.

Great idea and thank you for the mod.
It would probably be too much work so I am not asking for you to implement it but if this was a smarter drone:
- calculate amount of tiles on fire and for example:
1. if less than 4 = spray foam and go "home" to recharge with chemfuel.
2. if 5 or more tiles on fire = explode.
3. Or what @Entity said. make the drone reloadable with chemfuel + something else for balancing completely. Drone empties canisters and returns to home base like Rumba
Seems like a waste of resources to waste entire drone for one or a few tiles on fire. I would attempt it but I have no idea how to code to that degree.

I like the idea but can you do it as some kind of reloadable, do the foam parts explodes, but not the drone?

Does the drones rebuild them selfs after time or do we need to waste stuff to build them? Also does it go after any fire or just campfires?

Not Working for me. The fire was on the range. Drone was not working.
