The standard amount of following combat robots is 1, so with all levels of [[Follower robot count]] researched the maximum amount of following robots is 144. This limit counts for [[Defender capsule|Defenders]] and [[Destroyer capsule|Destroyers]], [[Distractor capsule|Distractors]] do not count against the follower limit.

Follower robot count (research) increases the maximum number of follower robots that can follow the player at any point in time. This limit counts for Defenders and Destroyers. Distractors do not count against the follower limit.

Remember that the cumulative effect starts with 10 due to researching defender (research) giving +4 to max followers.
