Drones is general are messed up. UI is clunky, they lack hotkeys, most of the EW drones are not very good, and they tend to get blown up too fast.


Yup. The thing hobbling drones is 10 year legacy code that hard limits what they devs can change before rewriting the base code. Which would mean addressing all of the legacy code. Like rate of fire.

To be honest. The drone UI needs completely redone from the ground up. What we have is lacking at best.

I think the new radial menu is the perfect place to start for the drone UI. It could be utilized with the current menu they have and make it quicker or add it as an option when selecting yourself.

There are good ships,

And wood ships,

And ships that sail the sea

But the best ships are Spaceships
