I know this isn't technically a bug, but not being able to control if a drone gets deployed or not and then having to wait 5 minutes for them to return to the drone bay/dock back on the ship before moving again is kind of a pain, having some kind of control over them would be helpful , like a deploy button or a recall button in the UI , also noticed that on occasion drones will deploy while in travel mode or will not dock before engaging in travel mode, NPC pilots will not recall drones before engaging travel mode and have lost them , i have lost a ship to this, as the repair drones got lost and then the engines on the ship were destroyed , since the service crew do not seem to do any service to the ship at all except for a co-pilot when needed they lack any repair abilities to at minimum stabilize the engines to get the ship docked. so a dead in space ship is lost to engine failure with no hope of recovery.
