Hello again! I've set up my mothership to auto dock, as well as all it's drones to be able to land on it and it works flawlessly! After using this to build a mining base, my next step is to make drone(s) that fly the resources from the new mining station to my city.

Question is, what is the best / propper way to set this up?

I've already built the drone, and used the waypoint system to make it go between the bases, but I'm now sitting here pondering how it's best to set it all up. Timer blocks are ofcourse the way to go, but I want to plan for future drones to be able to land and none of them crashing the system in anyway.

Here's what I'm going to try to start with:
Make a timer block on each base with [dockD1] tag (as well as changing the prefex in the prog block on the ship to match this ofcourse.

The city Timer block (10s delay) will:
-Start timer block (3s) on ship to turn on the connector
-Turn off Connector (I think I have to turn off the connector, or else it'll start overwriting the existing program)
-Run Prog block with command to go to mining station

It'll be the same on the mining station but it'll run the program to go back to the city instead.
I'm using isy's inventory manager to move cargo in and out of the ship, giving it a 10s delay at each base just to be sure =)



Is there something I'm missing? Something that I can add to make it even easier than this?
