![]() It's like it's right there in front of my face taunting me. It's just not "hotkeyable".which is really what drives me crazy. Simply put, there already is a "Launch Drones" button. CCP have stated as much but this is going to be more complicated than setting some hot keys. Yes, the whole drone interface requires an overhaul. ![]() If, for example, it were possible to assign a group to one of the module F-hotkey slots then you'd have some kind of consistent method that dealt with groups. It's not as simple as assigning a single key to release drones because you will need tO select which drones or group to launch.įor the above to even be possible via keys the whole grouping idea needs to be overhauled. :(įirst off, not the best attitude but anyhow.ĭrone ships have many types and groups of drones. The ONLY function I am forced to awkwardly "Right click move mouse down, right click again" to activate is Launch drones.įine, but then for some reason the devs decided to make you recall your drones a LOT because of new AI aggression.ĭoesn't that seem silly? Now I am fighting the interface, instead of enemy ships. I guess I'm just overly sensitive? I sometimes think I might have OCD because it really bothers me that I have everything hotkeyed (shift = ab/mwd space = turret group R and F activate my defensive modules QWEASD are the default eve navigation commands, ZXC = drone engage,return/orbit,return/bay etc.) You'd think they'd be able to figure out how to hotkey "Launch Drone Group 1" or something to that effect? Still, if EvE can program incursions/wormholes/industry/practically the rest of the whole game. I don't think it would be too complicated, I mean the interface already allows for you to create disparate "groups" for drones. Some ships can carry lots of groups of various shapes and sizes which makes the idea of having a hotkey to launch drones a bit complicated. Well you know not all ships carry a single flight of drones. imhoīut if the mods decide you're right, then so be it. Well it's more of a question to the "General" EvE public than it is a suggestion. This should be in Assembly Hall or Features & Ideas. and it really kills me that EvE is the MMO that provides so many functions as compared to other MMO's that it seems silly that it cannot fix this one thing. I have to not only right click in a small centimeter wide line, I then have to move my mouse downwards and click on another small centimeter wide line to do what? Launch some drones?ĮvE's developers should be ashamed! I'm not saying they are evil or bad people, just that this is such a fundamental thing. Of course, I have to always make an exception every single time I want to launch my drones. Not to mention that I have every single one of my EvE functions hotkeyed. This isn't just a cosmetic little thing, this is one whole weapon system that requires awkward wrangling to function properly. I remember trying the trial for EvE many moons ago and I can not fathom how a triple A title like this let's such a fundamental thing do under the radar for so long. not to mention simple things as being able to see the drone's health while it is in the hold. I would also like to bring up the fact that I think it's extremely unprofessional of EvE's developers to increase the difficulty in managing drones (new drone aggro ai) without first fixing this glaring hole in the "Shortcuts" menu. I'm just wondering if anyone who has more technical knowledge than I might be able to help answer why this seemingly very simple thing has not been added yet?
