Drone system will be added in the upcoming Powerplay update. Drones are disposable, consumable items you'll have to replenish at a starport

Drone Type

Drone types that will be available include:

  1. Collection Drones
  2. Fuel Drones

Collection Drone

Collection drones will be added and will prove useful for pirates needing to gather cargo in a hurry and also to improve mining efficiency.

Collection Drones work in two ways. In its primary mode, you'll target a cargo canister or mining chunk and launch the drone, which will scoop the object and return it to your open cargo hatch. The secondary mode has an area effect, scooping everything it can before its power expires

Fuel Drone

a new fuel drone will let players swap fuel while in flight. Players can act as buddy tankers for each other. Larger freight ships can carry additional fuel for their escort fighters and extend the effective range of their wing.
