Line 173:

* Drone shields do not instantly regenerate when they dock to your ship.

* You cannot see your drones health whilst docked in your drone bay. Make a mental note about how long you should leave a drones shield to recharge if damaged.

* Recall your drones before warping. But if you forget to recall return to the original spot and they'll be sitting there. You can scoop ~~them~~ to your cargo bay if you get within 2500m. You cannot tractor beam drones.

* Recall your drones before warping. But if you forget to recall return to the original spot and they'll be sitting there. Right-click on your ship (or your capacitor) and select "Reconnect to lost drones", then order them to return to your drone bay. You can also scoop drones to your cargo bay if you get within 2500m. You cannot tractor beam drones.

* When getting jammed and losing lock try recalling your drones (if they are not engaging the ECM ship), set them to aggressive and relaunch: even if there are other ships around they'll attack the jammer if you're lucky.

* Drones will pursue a target to the limit of your drone control range, which is determined by your drones skills and any Drone Link Augmentors you have fitted on your ship. This is true even if your drone control range exceeds your ship's targeting range - if the target runs away you will lose lock but your drones will continue to attack.
