| 6551 | 😠 | General | I haven't figured out how to use miner drones. There isn't any info in the codex. I tried to build a drone port, or drone launcher. I have miner drones in there. I tried to drag the drone port's regsiter to the deposit - that gives an error "Research required to produce metal deposit". I don't want to produce a metal deposit, I want to mine it. I'm fairly sure that this worked in early access. I am getting that same error in my old early access save where the drones are happily mining, and where the port's register is set to the deposit in buildings that existed in the past. I then kinda figured out I can select an individual drone and set its own register to the deposit. Doing that for every single drone manually would take ages. And I haven't found a way to encode this into the building blueprint. There needs to be a user friendly way to set miner drones to operation in bulk for each port, or at least via multiselect. This also needs to be documented in the codex. As a more general feedback, taking into account my previous submissions - this game feels like the player has to reverse engineer the game rules and the UI :( | 2026-03-25 09:37:52 |

| 623 | Hi, miner drones can be hard to set up still and we are hoping to revisit them to make them easier to use. For now you should be able to mass select them from the building with the drone port (there is a select all docked units button), and then right clicking on the resource. The drone port is now a producer for drones so it seems like youre running off old information trying to drag the register to the resource and getting the failed to produce error. Hope this helps! | Admin | 2026-03-25 07:40:30 |
