Just thought about something
How about making the drones use your teleporters?
They have to travel really far in some cases, so that would make things go a bit faster.

This just occured to me today when I was teleporting around xD
I think it makes total sense, but I don't think this will be implemented.

Maybe they can have their own kind of teleporter if people think it would make the game to easy or something. Then they'll have to use extra resources for those kind of teleporters atleast.
But yeah, I don't think that's something that will be implemented either.

I see the drones as themselves being some kind of teleporting technology. They pass through solid rock, after all. I think the drones you see are just helpful projections designed to let you understand what the drones are doing.

my first play through I only ended up using 3 teleporters, and a drone bay that wasn't completely full of drones. I didn't really have much of an issue with the drones having to travel once I had a few of them. each time it seemed slow, I'd just craft 2-3 more drones, and throw them in. pretty sure the drone station can hold 25? think i had maybe 21 drones total when I completed the game.

Yeah, I recently completed it also.
Waited until I could get all three endings, so that required a fair bit amount of tokens. And that also means that I sold a bunch of stuff, and therefore had loads of drones, around 5-600 of 'em only using one drone station. Had them autocrafted and put in the station as soon as there was a spot open.
But the materials for all the crafting that was needed would've been put to use way faster if the drones didn't had to travel so far.

I’ve played through twice and still not used the drones lol I made the station for the achievement but honestly by the time you get to drones and stuff like that I had made everything I wanted to make so didn’t really need drones at the end, I just did portal runs looking for fuses and then making optimisers with 3 fuses placed in to speed things up, maybe I will do a 3rd play through with drones this time around but I just wondered what people are needing so many for cos by the point we get them everything is pretty much set up to the 5.0ti mark unless people carry on playing well after they could leave the planet and complete the game maybe?

I use the drones, but only 5 units and I don't get why anyone would need more than 10. My drones stock 3 trade rockets with fabric (a farm of 8 silk machines and 4 or 5 T2 optimizers), resupply animal feeders, occasionally other needs. Though I'm invested into genetic experiments (I aim to create every variant of every species), so I'm in no rush for the ending - maybe people are just speeding things up as much as they can. Or just for fun :)
