In my last run, i used the Basilisk and met a drone ship. My teleport wasn't upgraded and i sent a boarding drone. The drone ship was a design without doors, and i was lucky, that i hit the weaponsystem directly. My drone killed their weaponsystem, and i was waiting, that the system repairs itself, but it doesn't. I let the battle some minutes running, but no change. I think, the breach was the reason, so i FTL away, unable to kill the drone. So my question: was it a bug, or a feature (maybe, the drone ships use nanites and they suck out of the breach )?

The auto repair is very slow. It's possible that you just didn't wait long enough. The breach and the automated drone should not have made a difference. I'll double check the code to see if there's a quirk I'm unaware of though.

I've waited several minutes. i know, it takes some time to repair. My conclusion: Breach overrides the repair behaviour. Breach a has higher repair priority, but the drone can't repair the breach, so the drone stuck. But it's ok for the moment, the idea of the sucked nanites amused me

I have double checked the code and you are correct, a breach will not allow the auto-repair

I'm pretty comfortable with that as well. Seems reasonable to me to be a feature.
