Again guys, the LIMIT is not the issue.

1. You want to replace that drone with another right away, oh wait, you need to charge it....waiting.....waiting...

2. You now have a free slot to charge another drone in, to do this you need to manually scroll down, select the drone, equip it, then wait. When this is done you can finally drop it using a hotkey.

Again guys, the LIMIT is not the issue. 18 is a pretty decent number. The issue is that you precharge your drones, they are good to go. You drop them and everything is going fine, suddenly you need to scoop one for one reaosn or another, maybe to drop another Charge ir to save it from dying.

That takes to long and is to micro intensive.

If we had a method for making sure you could drop any drone you wanted without having to navigate your inventory and wait for it to charge, I wouldn't have a problem with it, honestly.

Simple solution: Add a "Drone Charging Queue". To use it, simply right click it and hit "Add X Amount to Drone Charging Queue". Then put the number of that type of drone you want on the queue (if there is only 1 of that drone, do not prompt the number of drones to put on the queue). When you deploy a drone/those drones, that drone/the other drones will automatically start charging.

For example, I have 18 Armada Charges pre-charged, and 6 Armada Infernoes I want charged when I drop the Charges. When I drop 1 Charge, an Inferno will start charging. If I drop 5 more Armada Charges, 5 more Infernoes will charge.

To further improve this, but add another layer of complexity, multiple queues could be set up. For this, the drones will charge one from each queue, going from queue 1 to 2 and on. Then there will be a checkbox that when selected, will repeat the queues.

Example: I have 18 Armada Charges pre-charged, 6 Armada Infernoes to be charged, and 6 Arson Drones to be charged. However, I want the drones charged to alternate, charging 1 Inferno and then 1 Arson. For this, I add 1 Inferno to queue 1, then 1 Arson to queue 2. I then hit the checkbox to repeat this order. Alternatively, I could set 3 Infernos to queue 1, and 2 Arsons to queue 2. Once I hit the checkbox, I would have very little management to take care of, and when I have charging slots open the drones will automatically start charging in that order.

Thoughts?
