• I don't know if it's been covered in here yet, but I wanted to just stop by and say (since I've seen a lot of debate in this thread about why crouching matters).

  
  

  If you pay attention to a drone, and the color of its scanners you'll notice one of two things.

  1. When standing, the drone while in its FOV is emitting yellow/orangeish scanners. That means it can see you. It's true that even if it can see you, walking or standing protects you, but the second you sprint in the counter direction of the scan the drone will mark you with 1/3 of the scans necessary to take a health state.
  2. When crouching, the drone while in its FOV is emitting white/clearish scanners. This is an indication to the Skull Merchant that a survivor is IN the FOV of the drone (if they're paying attention), however while the scanners are white it CANNOT scan you, and does not see you. This change was implemented to allow survivors to do generators while inside of the drone FOV without adding charges to your 3 scans.

  I hope that helps! ^^
