Post 'Abandon drones' not working
I tried to abandon drones 2 times.

First time was in the beginning of my game. I was trying to abandon a healer drone.
Second time i was trying to abandon some mobile lightning drones.

First time succeded after maybe 2 days... i can't tell you exactly.
Second time... well, i'm still waiting to be able to deploy my new drones instead of 'abandoned' ones (they reject to accept their abandoned state :)).

So many other bugs that i've encountered, and keep in mind that i'm only 300lvl.
Thanks in advance.

You have to be in the same galaxy as the drone. And soldier+ on your team if I remember right.

So, what's the purpose of 'abandon drone' feature?
Why u should like to abandon ur drone while in the same galaxy?

I see it in my 'way'. I've lost my drones somewhere in the middle of nowhere. I would like to deploy my new drones and abandon the lost ones. (No matter where I am now.) Why should I get my arse to those 'nowhere' places first? Nonsense.

You have to insert a modified communication chip that breaks the subspace link between your ship computer and the deployed drone before it will truly accept the abandon command. You have to be in the same galaxy as the drone because the drone places a subspace transphasic shield around it's computer core when it goes into either an abandoned or destroyed state.

This means only a short range (same galaxy) communication (think teleporter or ring transmission) between your ship and the drone is possible and depending on the interference in the galaxy, you may have to be right next to it.

Check your possessions tab to see what galaxy the drone is in.

Don't forget....friends don't let friends leave space junk laying around!

It really is annoying when you have some worthless destroyed drones somewhere else on the other side of the galaxy and the abandon command isnt working.

Historically, the devs hate DMs.

Yeah stuff those DMs!

Will ask the other developers why this is limited, and see if the limitation can be removed.
