Does it seem absurd that a Mechanic's Drone stops functions the moment said Mechanic passes out? I could understand if it happened while under direct control, but if I gave a drone the command to travel 1000 ft east and I fall unconscious before it completes the command; shouldn't the drone keep going until the last command was completed? Why would anyone who can code a "dumb" A.I. design it that way. I'd be more inclined to believe anyone who ended up in combat regularly would not only patch that shit out asap. In fact, since it has to see and/or hear you, I would code in a conditional subroutine move adjacent to me and defend my ass should it observe me pass out.
Same thing with sleeping in a "dungeon" or out in the wilderness. I sure as hell would want my drone to help keep watch. Since a Mechanic doesn't need to worry about a drone's power supply, having deactivated while in unsecured locations and he is sleep is just plain stupid for an Int base class to do.
