[FEEDBACK] Recall Subordinates (7.0 Beta 2)

[fermiredshirt]

Recall Subordinates still is a problem for ships with drones. AI commanded Ships will lose their cargo drones and enter recall subordinates repeatedly when collect is enabled. Ships will continually issue Recall Subordinates command even when under fire or in a blacklist location. There is no command to abandon subordinates or deprioritize recall. Why is a 30mc ship waiting to die, continually reissuing recall subordinates, for a 10kc drone? makes no sense. Recall subordinates needs a lower priority or the ability to actually cancel the order without it being reissued.

scenario 1. on an asgard not in command. AI commanded asgard has follow ship command issued with cargo drones set to collect. asgard follows ship through an asteroid field creating ore and Ice, drones go to collect ore and Ice, asgard continues through jumpgate. asgard recalls subordinates and gets stuck for am hour waiting for drones. I cant cancel recall subordinates without it reissuing.

scenario 2 tell a fleet to flee. aux ship tries to recall subordinates instead of fleeing. remove assigned subordinates only drones left aux keeps trying to recall subordinates instead of fleeing. similar to getting stuck in dock.

scenario 3. ship has 3 of 4 cargo drones docked. drones are disabled . ship goes about its orders for 5 hours. take control of ship and give it back to AI captain then instead of continuing about its orders as it has for hours it tries to recall subordinates continually.

I might add here to the discussion: My freshly bought Heron E had its cargo drones free to roam, when I wanted to dock at shipyard in Holy vision, it got stuck in Nopilious F. VI. So I waited and waited, and finally I took the control and flew to the station. There I wanted it to let it go on it's own, trade and stuff, but the first thing it went to do again, even after I cleared the que, recall subordinates, while everything is onboard!

Is this a bug or am I overseeing something critical here?

Notice the info ship - drone behaviour, the capacity is 10, 4 repair drones and 6 on board and 1 is active?
I have sifted through the route from where I bought it, but could not find a drone. Just as I entered Nopilious F. VI, then I had to make this wild turn to go further south and then I noticed that two drones escaped. So, then I recalled them and that even took a while, handed it over to the cap.
After I did not see any drone, I took control.... Hope this helped.
