          so to who ever uses drones one thing i have found really annoying is selecting the drones you want to launch say you got like 4 sets of 5 drones and you launch them when you call them back in what happens they make this big expanded list so when you have used all your drones at some point you have bout 20 drones on the list and i cant just say launch drones cause its not going launch the ones i want soo this my sujestion...
  it would be nice if the format maybe something like having bottens to launch small med or heavy drones or groups of drones yes i know you can do that now group them but it still be nice if there was some sort of self organization, another thing is just calling in drones launching them its all on that right click menu these days its not such issue casue im used to it but if your new to eve its a pain (awkward) why cant there be big shinnie bottons say launch, and get the @!*# back to my ship would be nice right ;) ever flown carrier? bloody hell its pain in ass to organize that stuff my god when i recall drones and i have my mouse over the other set i want to launch forget it (expanded list of drones fill up my screen) and you know what i mean if you done it...its almost like i feel like ccp needs to take page out of apple (ipod)....make the style simple you know like press the easy botton for once anyhow thats my thoughts first time on forums o/
  i do realize sounds like some changes in next expantion so guess well wait and see |

          err you can already do that....can't remember but think right click and you can name a group then pass those drone types into it - so I have light, med , heavy ecm etc - try it - I found it by accident :-) |

          I find that when grouping my drones, if I assign a number to each scale of drone, light, medium, heavy and sentry. It makes them much easier to manage.
  As an example.
  #1 Hobgoblin #1 Warrior #2 Hammerhead #3 Ogre #4 Garde
  They will then be grouped in numerical order, rather than alphabetical.
  Edit: It would be nice if the game automatically put them in order of size though when you grouped them. |

          ou can group them into folders and launch as whole.
  Ctrl select all the drones u need, right click, create new group. And if u loose one or two, then get a new drone, right click and move to group.
  I usually have groups like, Hob/Hammer/Warrior/ECM etc.
  Its an embarrassment to call yourself a care bear if you don't know this. |

          The annoying part is that you cant group mixed drones, ccp should fix this. |

Do it all the time. Just drag and drop the required drones into your named folders. |

          i think most you are missing what im saying its the format really i think that using the right click menu should be different and my biggest gripe is not that you cant group drones "i said i know you can thats not my issue" its when you call drones back in and they are unpackaged as such they show up and expand the groups so i have to scroll down ths is irritating if your in pvp and you dont want to hunt for the group you want to launch....again its not that i dont know how to group drones |

          So just click the top of the folder to have it expand/not expand. That way the drones aren't in the way and plus, you can just launch them by right- clicking that folder diretly, not the individual drones. |
