Taking crap jobs is what biological drones were originally designed for, so…

Are mining vessles, drifting along harvesting Asteroids and Nebulae or whatever, crewed by Biological Drones primerily or do people actually want to be stuck on a mining ship with some smeghead with a big ‘H’ stuck on their head. (Heh, british comedy may not be subtle but it has MEANING unlike slapstick comedy of the USA)

Do other people mind biological drones taking crap jobs like deep space mining and putting out fires in nuculear power planets?

People are actually quite unhappy about their presence, although that might be compensated by the fact that the drones prevent them from being overworked. The effects of “losing” your B.D. population depend very much on the planet’s current status.

Do people care if you kill off your drones?

Like, if they are getting too much for upkeep or if they are affected by a random event.

It is possible to sabotage drone vats, but it’s not that direct – it’d be the results of a “sabotage” spy mission, which can’t be directed against a specific building.

Having the biodrones corrupted and becoming “evil” would be too specific for a special agent mission however; it could be arranged as a species-specific random event (some virus corrupts the drones’ programming).

Is it possible to sabotage someone’s biological drone vats?

Maybe corrupting the the drones to be evil or something?
