I remember being able to click on the drone filter while scanning and looking for drones, now though it brings up every structure in the game. I'd like to see/alter my filters but I've no idea WHERE to find any filter menu.

So, why can I not filter out all but drones if that is what the filter is? Where can I alter this if I am able to?

long story short?
create an overview with only drones (if you are looking for drones), set your d-scan filter to "Active overview filter", select the overview you created and click on d-scan.

or personalize your overview like a true man with those links above.

well the answer is simple... open scanner probe, on the right of "scan results" there is "filtered", click it and "create new filter"
there you go! don't kill too many people Cool

I did make a new filter for just drones and it was the same, Citadels, POS stuctures, everything....I set it for just drones and I still get everything else. It worked before ( granted a few months since I did a drone clean up scan ) and now it doesn't....CCP fiddled somewhere and it seems to be a bit of a fail IMO.

The way to hunt drones is once you have done a scan and everything shows up, ships etc, you can by clicking on where it says drones/probes you can scan them down indivisualy to 100%. I did that not long ago, full cargo bay by the time I got done.....
