Can we get this listed somewhere as an attribute, rather than calculating manually?

+1 would be neat.

Stupidity should be a bannable offense.

+1

Has come up many times in the past, not sure why its hasn't been implemented yet (though it's usally 54 km or 57 km plus mod, not much to calculate there), but would still be neat.

I would like for this to be displayed on ship fitting window too.

I thought we are talking about the fitting window, where else do you want it ? its a ship attribute once you sit in it !

I asked for this in the Crius little things thread. And we've been asking for it for years. Obviously they can do the calculation, since they use it for combat, so please please please CCP make it display on the fitting window.

Pretty please?

De'Veldrin's Corollary (to Malcanis' Law): Any idea that seeks to limit the ability of a large nullsec bloc to do something in the name of allowing more small groups into sov null will inevitably make it that much harder for small groups to enter sov null.

If it's not 60km minimum, you're doing drones wrong. P

Somehow I knew someone clever would come along that has max 5 just to have max 5 and comment on it and assume that everyone has it on 5 no matter how useless comapred to the training investment. I assumed the average player (including me with 113km drone range) has just level 3 or 4 trained for the sensible maximum effect.

Thank you for reminding me that we are all doing it wrong. Roll

+1 for this idea still.

Would also be very useful to have it shown as a sphere around your ship when you hover over drones in bay with tactical overview up, with optimal, falloff and max control range shown.
