Just tried them on Sisi. They seemed to have completely lost their auto-salvage functionality. I'm not sure if this is a bug or their new feature.

I did a mission and made a bunch of wrecks, came back with my Noctis and before locking anything I gave the salvage command both from the drone window and with the new shortcut, but neither seemed to do anything.

Then I locked some wrecks and gave the salvage command from the drone window; this worked just like it did before (like it does now on TQ), the drones salvage the targeted wreck and then stop. I tried the new salvage shortcut and this worked in the same way, they salvage the targeted wreck and stop.

I currently don't let the drones auto-salvage on TQ. I select a wreck and give the salvage command from the drone window for each wreck so this new shortcut will surely make my salvaging much more comfortable. Thank you CCP =)

I'm not sure about the lost auto-salvage function though. I don't like doing missions on Sisi so I didn't bother to perform a thorough test. It might have been a glitch or something.

Anyway, good change for me =)


It's always auto-salvaged fine for me on Singularity. If it does it again for you, please please make a bug report. Hit F12 in game, click the Report Bug button.
It takes just a minute to fill in, but it sends me a report I can action with and it has your game log file where I can see what happened. You can also take screenshots with the tool, it's pretty neat.

OK, I gave it another try but doesn't seem to work for me. I sent a bug report 153211.

Thanks. Got it, managed to figure out what's going wrong. Working on this now.
Because of the juicy info contained in the log, I was able to figure it out. Bug reports really help! Thanks :3

Not sure if you have already done something on this (at least I noticed there was a Sisi client update) but I just checked Sisi again and this time the salvage drones were happily auto-salvaging like they do now on TQ.

I have found that auto-salvage + the new shortcut allows me to salvage very comfortably and efficiently. I'm looking forward to seeing this feature on TQ =)

side note: i always wondered why sending bug report takes about 2-3 minutes and makes my EveO client almost dead.....

Once i decided to send bug-report in the middle of 0.0 sec roam.... Almost lost my gang by the time EveO client finished sending it and returned controls.... Was quite thrilling Lol

One thing is that the drones will not auto salvage if you have a target locked. It will just salvage your target and then idle. I always send my drones out and set them to salvage before I lock any targets at all.
