An additional section down the bottom of killmails which include drones that were launched by the player and destroyed, they would just appear like any lost module and even in the case of the player not dying, they would still be show in a battle report with lost modules (drones)
Obviously if the player was not involved in combat and lost drones to pve or something then there would be no lost module/drone report.
The reason is when it comes to some capital/super capital fights a large amount of isk destroyed in fighters and fighter bombers is not recorded anywhere but guesses in peoples minds.
This is one example. Ishtars vs Supers
The interceptors, few ishtars and tower loss were only a small percentage of what isk was actually lost on field that day.
I think the same could be said for jettisoned equipment or ripped out implants during combat (Maybe)
I have pulled out implants a few times before while bubbled in my pod just to reduce the loss, and have seen many people jettison their cargo before death to reduce the cost of a loss (usually haulers)
I guess it's of the public opinion if the isk being dumped in fighters/fighter bombers or cargo cans not being portrated in battle reports matter.

An even better idea is to get rid of kill mails completely since they serve no practical in game purpose. Given that this is not likely to happen because you PvP (kill other players) people are hell bent on giving away free intel on yourselves I see no reason to not support this so +1. |

There is absolutely no reason to clutter the API system with even more BS like drones killed. Why do you even care about the ISK ratio of encounter? Why don't you just concentrate on achieving your objectives and be done with it? If anything, lost drones generating KM would just drive more risk averse behaviour because people would dislike having lost drone appear on boards. |

I am sure it can be scripted in a way so it has minimal impact on the API system. They're already linked to a mini watchlist. Some fights revolve around isk, so therefore it would be great to have better accuracy.
Maybe people would stop throwing away fighters/bombers and drones and micromanage them a bit better |
