please make it posible to transfer drones from ship to ship

This is terribly needed. If you have a miner with very few drones he needs more but maybe you didn't order enough or maybe you capped him and hes short. Either he mines forever until fighters find him or you have to stay there guarding him.If we can order drones to move from ship to ship then we can buy a few at a time, when we can afford it, and drop them off. They'd dock then sit there for a minute to 'get new orders' then join the mining team. Also would work for ships like the TM class and bigger, cant always send them to a shipyard for a few fighter drones, so they just have to do...or die...but this would fix that, so please it sounds simple enough ( sorry modders I'm sure its not) but its badly needed, and we all know Ego isnt going to worry about these 'little details' for a year or two yet. :wink:

The problem is that the remove_units function doesn't seem to work. Adding the units to the ship that is getting drones is pretty easy, but without a way to remove them from the giving ship its just a drone dupe :/.
