What if a set of drones could be placed in a drone bay folder then assign that folder a shortcut key to launch them?

What if they could mapthat key to an empty module position on the hud like guns - with a simple 1 click system. Click, drones attack selected, when its dead they free roam until you click again on the next selected, or click them off the drones return to bay. Something like that.

Perhaps even "assign group number" in the drones options, or even a place-able button in the Fkey listings (drag-n-drop for that please)

And also while on it add other features like displaying drone health when in dronebay and keeping the drone display tree extended after jumping ;)

another idea for this, show if drones are being targeted in their dropdown, flashing yellow targeted, flashing red, modules on them, just like ship targeting
