Hi Slav, fantastic job so far!! Hey, is there anything in the works to allow the use of mining drones? When I'm out mining I can tell a bot miner pretty quickly if they are not using them. Exhumers can carry 10 light drones, 5 scouts and 5 miners would work well for most high sec systems. A set of 5 tech II mining drones can almost mine as much as 1 strip miner. You'd have to program in for the mining drones to dock up anytime there were NPC's around as they like to target the mining drones first. Just a thought.

Need to look into this part again. I tried to introduce fighting+mining drones and distribute them into groups. Main problem was that due to some reason drones forget what group they belong and program has to redistribute drones between groups again. I could not make this in reasonable time and abandoned the idea. May be after refining, survey scanner support and fleet/ORCA support. These 3 improvements are first in the list.

Also whenever you reload drones you have to put them into a group each time.

Yeah the grouping is a pain in the butt even manually. I can see where it would be nuttin but trouble to code!

If you make Orca support I will name my first born child after you.

theres gonna be lotsa kids named slav2 then. Hurry up slav! 8 months to go and ill name our 2nd after ya!
