Pretty sure they will let us know here when they deploy a fix to sisi.

AI code is hell to parse, so its gonna take some time to figure out what broke.

I wanna date her now... I think she is the only dev ever to monitor a topic as promised.

One little question... Masterplan succeded with a repro but have any of you found the actuall problem?
( Note that I am not asking about a fix or release date )

Not to derail this thread, but can you kick the forum people into doing an equally good job? Nothing as annoying as 4 ganked 1000 word posts in a row, except maybe when something as simple as the like button breaks.

Why have it if it doesn't work :P

It would be nice when I dc in missions that my t2 drones arent lost.

My ship warps out when I dc, can my drones warp out with me?
Even a "re-connect to lost drones" like we can do with probes would suffice (if I can get back on grid quick enough before they are popped) so that I can quickly suck them back in.

If I dc, I have to slowboat some random distance, e.g. 60km to try and retrieve the drones before they get popped (2.5km range before you can pull them back in). They usually are all dead by the time I get to them, sometimes I might get one or two out. I then have to fly back to a station and restock up with drones, and then fly back out to the mission ... and THEN through any acceleration gates to get back to where I was!

Please fix this, drones are a big part of EVE ... internet disconnects happen, thats why you have the ship warpout. Please handle drones also.

Fly an ishtar full of ogre IIs... they are tough enough to survive(mostly) while you AB your way back to them, my record saving run was about 40km.

Ofc, apparently I never have to do that again \o/

Ok, I gotta admit I came back to this thread with very little expectation. Just wow, auto suckin attempt and ability to reconnect.

The absolute massive turnaround and refocus of CCP was desperately needed and I think most people gave you little chance. My personal opinion is changing and I now think you guys might be able to pull through this, remarkable if you can keep it going and it isnt all flash in the pan stuff.

My drones tyvm.

They are most defenetly going in the right direction...
Meny of the "locations" along the road has been visited, all that is missing is their arrival at the end.

Those of you who have reported problems with drones not following your orders: I'd like you to try and get on to Singularity and see how they behave now please. Specifically the two different cases of mining drones when an asteroid pops, and combat drones when a target is destroyed.
If you encounter issues, please give me as much detail (ship type, fitting, drone types, NPCs, timestamp, etc) as possible. Also your passive/aggressive/focus-fire settings.
I'll follow this up with more info as I get feedback.
Thanks!
