I was very happy to start using the radial dial for the stargates, planet and ships, and when I started to expect a radial dial to show up for the drones in the detailed drones list and didn't get one I said "Awwww."

Could you install one?

Combat drones would easily be told to engage the current target, EW drones would have the same option, and Shield and Armor rep drones could have "repair", mining drones "mine repeatedly", and salvage drones could be told to "salvage all" as the default group setting.

S[eaking of default listings with a mixed group of drones - a defult could be assigned by the type of target currently being highlighted -- with maybe the default predicence being for attack drones to attack the hostile targets and repair drones to repair the friendly targets.

Thanks for all the new features! It makes exploring a lot more fun!

Yes, this is a great example of what you might call low hanging fruit that will help while a better overall vision of drone management is worked out.

CCP karkur and CCP Punkturis, you're our only hopes!
