Default drones?

I keep seeing bitmap files with the word "drone" in them. Is there a drone in this game?

It's either on MM's to do list, or they have scrapped the drone idea... I haven't heard anything either way. Maybe I'll send a message to Aaron about it.

Or, you could check out the Q&A section at http://www.malfador.com/se4.html, where they mention drones specifically (#58)

In general, try and search the Boards or read the Q&A before emailing developers about issues with the game, since the more time they spend answering the same emails over and over from different people, the less time they have to add features, fix bugs, balance gameplay, have a life, etc.

It's easy to miss the Q&A, being on another site. At the very least though, give the search engine on the board a shot. I just did a search on 'drone', and saw this question or some form of it pop up quite a few times...

Drones drones drones,

From what I understand they are to be small computer guided ships, very hard and tricky to code. I know it being worked on but probably low on the priority list.
