It would be wise to check whether an ally is already farming in the area.
In the event of a local neutral, it would be preferable to align with a zone and cut propulsion to warp the drone more quickly once it’s in the cargo bay.
Alternatively, we could dock at a station bookmarked in the “location” window.
I’d like to add that, since some drones can be lost in battle, we should be able to add a parameter defining the drones to be held in the cargo bay, subject to station availability in the personal depot.
Could we also save a bookmaker before leaving a finish zone.
I see the most popular anomaly ratting bots already consider locals and will leave an anomaly if there is already another pilot on arrival.
For example, if you use https://catalog.botlab.org/d66ba405fe, that one does that by default, with no settings prompt necessary.
With bot d66ba405fe, you can achieve this by adding the following line in the bot settings prompt:
hideWhenNeutralInLocal = yes
I think we could a setting like drone-refill-location for that. Then you could use that with the name of a station or a label as it appears in your locations window.
This might be new. What is the sequence of inputs you use to save a bookmark?
