Drone mechanics: Difference between revisions

Line 95:

If you warp away while your drones are in space, if your ship is destroyed, or if you give the "abandon" command, your drones will become inactive and remain stationary in space. At this point, anyone can recover them (by flying to them and using the "scoop to drone bay" or "scoop to cargo bay" command). You can also reconnect with any drones which you have personally abandoned by right-clicking on your ship (or the capacitor on your HUD) and selecting "reconnect to lost drones"; this works as long as the drones are nearby, [[Eve_Lexicon#On-Grid.2C_Off-Grid|on the same grid]]. It's not possible to use a tractor beam on abandoned drones.

If you've warped away without recalling your drones, but cannot directly return to the location (e.g. if you left your drones in a mission [[deadspace]] pocket, but you completed the mission, and therefore no longer have the bookmark for the location), you can [[Scanning ~~& Probing~~|scan down]] your lost drones using combat probes.

If you've warped away without recalling your drones, but cannot directly return to the location (e.g. if you left your drones in a mission [[deadspace]] pocket, but you completed the mission, and therefore no longer have the bookmark for the location), you can [[Scanning|scan down]] your lost drones using combat probes.
