Space Engineers Tutorial: How Decoys Work (tips, testing and tutorials for survival)

For those of you that want to take your ships up against the AI buildings and enemies that we placed in the last tutorial you'll probably want to know how decoys work in Space Engineers. Before making this tutorial I thought I had a pretty good handle on how they worked. It turns out that some of my ideas were a little bit off. We take a look at decoys in terms of how they attract fire to themselves, whether they need to be closer to the enemy than your other blocks and what forms of armour you want to have around them so they last just a little bit longer during battle. I hope this information is useful, if you've got any further questions about decoys I'd love to hear about them in the comments as there is probably a whole lot more information to investigate on these useful little blocks. As always, don't forget to enjoy this awesome (if at times buggy) game!
