There are allot of missing shortcuts for drones, i hate having to use my mouse for everything, the reason is my keyboard is a way quicker place to reach to do these type of things:
- Single drone command
- Dropping drones in space
- Assigning drones to a fleet member
Those things would have such a big impact. I have 3 sets of 6 macros on my keyboard, i could set 1-5 to call drones each individually, i could set 6 has all drones, and same for attack and/or orbit. for anyone without macros/extra keys, you could set from Q-Y to tell your drones something individually.

This is what drones are about, they require management, keeping them alive and what not. And i am all for using your mouse for everything, like typing and writing passwords... oh wait, that's why the keyboard is awesome no? being able to do ALLOT of things, but simple enough, that's why i want shortcuts for my micromanaging tasks.
That's why id like these shortcuts to be added. I understand you CCP adding shortcuts is a hard job, i believe you, but you just added drop in space with our mouse instead of the all wanted drop in space shortcut. Its about time you add at less this one, Please <3
