In system NS2L-4, drones will get aggro almost immediately after being launched, doesn't change after being recalled and relaunched, over and over again. Rats just switch to drones withing 5-10 seconds.
Some rats will stay yellowboxed and will not attack my ship, being in their range.
Some of those rats will stay yellowboxed even if i warp out and back.

I'm posting this here because the client crashes when i try to submit a bug report \o/

Even if this is not a bug

I'll look into the drone aggro thing.

Could you please give us more info about the client crashing when sending bug reports? How exactly is it crashing? Do you get any crash dump? Can you try this with running logserver and send a bug report through the website and include logs, dumps, screenshot and extra info - whatever you are able to gather. Please check the bug reporting link in my signature for further details on logserver and finding crash dumps.

Client got hung for a minute or so with circle spinning (not responding) when i closed the screenshot prompt window by clicking the X, not "Yes" or "No". I ended up manually killing the process after waiting a minute or so.
This could be the relevant dump? Only i got from Oct 13th, around when it happened, i only opened this thread the next day.

I successfully submitted a ticket related to this drone abnormality after, this time clicked "No" on the screenshot prompt and it went through. The "X" marks the spot.

IT appears that this drone thing is only happening in NS2L-4, but can't be sure, not being easy finding Angel sites around these parts with the little time i have been allotted lately. Ran some on a drone site in NS2L-4 for a bit and aggro looked ok. Running a Sanctum in B-A587 right now and drone aggro looks normal.
