How many IPs do unmanned drones have?

How many do rigged drones have?

Unmanned drones get three initiative passes. Rigged drones act when the rigger acts, if I remember correctly.

Dont riggers get VR initiative when jumped in?

It makes no sense for them to get WR of Synaptic IPs when they are jumped in. Also, I like Serbitar's rules that non rigging drivers only get one IP while driving.

There's AR Command mode, and VR Jumped in mode to account for. And Technomancers.

Regardless of mode, though, the rigged drone acts on the rigger's initiative be that physical or matrix based attributes.

Only when a rigger is jumped in or has just jumped out, other its initiative is Pilot + Response. {BBB pg239}
