Continuing to design a physics game - Kill the Nasties!

 Reference


I'm going back to obscuring everything.  The only happy place for Newtonian physics these days are computer games.  I was always impressed with Ringworld, and that Earth had tons of asteroid mining vessels and no known warships.  The invaders came and were cut up by the laser-driven ships.

So, we have a fictional country invaded by Nasties who are killing everyone.  Except they have a zillion argricultural drones for spraying.  They end up spraying supply trucks with black UV epoxy in the bright sunlight.  I know from my exploits that it sets up instantly, and is impossible to remove.  That blinds their windshields.  

These drones can also deliver other explosive payloads.  So, the game has them zooming through the forest, and attacking.  Neat.
