    Couldn’t dont() just be an order to halt and goingToCrashIntoEachOther can be a simple true/false?

    So the drones both stop, then start moving and immediately see they will crash into each other so they halt again. Drone version of you go, no no you go

      In my head, the drones were going so fast that just slamming into the brakes wasn’t enough and you’d rather have to dodge. Not sure, if that’s only in my head or if I actually saw the video of these drones a long time ago.

      But yeah, if they are going really slow, then that could work.
      Maybe you’d even have them back up a bit and then turn at a random angle before trying to continue flying, so you don’t end up in the deadlock you described. 🙃
