There are no shortcuts fro drones in general, get in line Blink

+1 for shortcuts for drones and OPEN CARGO

You don't have that open all the time?!
+1 for more shortcuts, regardless of what there for!

I am talking about looting wrecks actively with a noctis... 80 wrecks +
right click 'open cargo' - move across the screen - click 'loot'
right click 'open cargo' - move across the screen - click 'loot'
right click 'open cargo' - move across the screen - click 'loot'
right click 'open cargo' - move across the screen - click 'loot'
right click 'remove wreck from overview' ... damn, not again Evil

Open cargo? Like in "Open Cargo Hold of active ship" in Options -> Shortcuts -> Windows?

I'd rather like to have a shortcut for "Open Fleethangar".

You do read before posting right ?

And it could work the same way, like ctrl does, click on anything holding down the key, open cargo, if wreck, ship hangar etc..., and you fly to the usual distance while opening at 2500m range.


But to return to toppic, I wish the same for standart drag and drop for drones, single or flight:

drag on asteroid - mine continiously (standard)
drag on locked ship - engage - attack or repair (standard)
drag on watchlsit - 'assist' or 'guard' menu pop-up

weapons activate on keys, since drones are now supposed to be considered a full weapon system, where are the keys or drag/drop options.

Drones do have short-cuts

Esc > shortcut > drones

basics
Shift + R = recall drones to drone bay
F = send drones to attack, salvage, mine
blah blah blah. there are about 10 of them...

Apparently I am incapable of interpreting "+1 for shortcuts for drones and OPEN CARGO" in the way you more elaborately explained in the quoted post. Forgive me. Roll

But the drone drag&drop commandos (shortcuts is something different, at least for me) would be very welcome in some circumstances.

As for your Noctis problem: Double click a wreck in the overview -> automatically opens the cargo of the wreck. Should at least removes the terrible right click menu step.

Either I've gone mental and started imagining things in EVE or you're doing it wrong.

I haven't done any pve for a while but I'm pretty sure you can just double left click the wrecks and they open a new window with the loot in it. So you just double click all the wrecks in range and then you just hit the loot button a lot I don't remember having any problems with looting stuff with my Noctis.

Not sure why you're moving the loot window across the screen either. I'm sure you have a good reason for doing it, I just can't imagine what it is.

I would kill for "loot all" button in "Selected item" window for wrecks/containers...

But +1 for shortcuts!

And that's fine and all, except F doesn't make drones go mining.

Thought of this myself recently

Sincerly, didn't know about the double click wreck option .. dough Shocked

feel really stupid now, thanks ... another day in EVE, learned one more thing. Roll

Well, still love the drag drop option.

Need to check more drone options when I get home, am sure there weren't that many last time I looked.

Not for mining drones, you have to use them manually, the combat shortcuts won't work for mining drones

I hope you all use the F key. From my understanding it means fetch or f*ck up target.
