I accidentally left my drones in a mission area. I only realised this after I had warped back to station, completed the mission and accepted the next mission. There is now no link back to the previous mission area. Is there any way to show where they are on the star map? The game does not seem to keep a log of completed missions. Can someone help? Thanks. |

If you didn't bookmark the site (which is a good habit to get into every time you land in a site) you have to scan them down with a probe scanner |

They can be scanned down and recovered with a combat scanner http://wiki.eveuniversity.org/Combat_Probing_101 Generally only worthwhile for T2 or faction drones. People forget them, and their MTU, all the time. Scanning them down and salvaging them is a career for some players. |

Incidentally, another reason why it's a good idea to right-click a location and "save location" to create a bookmark is because loot (wrecks, containers) remain in space for up to 2 hours even if you complete the mission (everything related to the mission disappears from space, except the wrecks). So it's a lot more efficient to kill kill kill, then come back with a destroyer with 8 salvager rays and a mobile tractor unit and loot / salvage. |

Scanning down even T1 drones is worth it because you learn how to use the combat probes on something that won't warp off and/or cloak up.
If you're in a system where MTUs attract attention, a T1 exploration frigate is a better choice than a destroyer: higher base speed, lower mass, good cargo hold, bonus to salvager cycle time.

If you have low scanning skills you might have to use Sister Combat probes and a rangefinding modul to find small drones even on ships with a scan bonus. |

I think that single T1 rangefinding module is more expensive than the full flight of drones OP left behind, let alone the SOE combat probes. but anyway, it's a good way to learn how to combat probe.
