Default Re: AI and drones?

The problems with the lack of "move to" order are two:
First you can't use drones for reconnaissance, which IMHO is one main use for them.
Second it is exactely that they are not locked on their attack target: if the target warps to a system where you have no sight the attack order is just cancelled. "Oh we saw our target warp to the sytem XY, but now we have no idea where it is so we have to abort the attack". That's just stupid IMO.
But as I said all I ask is an option in the game settings file where you can chose if you want the "move to" order or not.
