Hi,
It would be great if salvage/scout drones targeted different objects if focus fire was disabled and same object if enabled. |

Drone AI is deliberately simplistic to prevent them going rogue on us. Also as a game mechanic reason to make it harder to afk.
But you can manually do what you are asking for just fine. |

Sure if you don't mind getting carpal tunnel. I don't know if you have tried micromanaging drones but its very awkward. If there were at least hotkeys it would not be so bad.
Not sure how AFK is relevant as AFK drone boats are all the rage and focus fire is optimal for AFK, which is how drones work now. |

In level 4 missions, it is rather annoying having to assign every salvage drone to each wreck. |

There are hotkeys to have drones attacks.

Don't have any wrecks targeted and tell them to salvage. They will repeatedly salvage all wrecks on field. |

Drones - like many of the old mechanics of good see a overhaul on how the work. Nov is setting up so ground work for mining drones, but as a whole, the system needs a rework with the thought that drones are a primary weapon/support feature just as important as our F1 lasers/hybrids/projectiles/rr/salvage/missiles etc.

I can't believe I didn't know this. I will now remove the salvager from my ratting vexor. |

"What i learned in boating school today Is...."
Surprising that even years after these drones came into being so few people know that trick
