(Seriously I know I've complained about this like a dozen times, but why can't I just hold my welder against ANY part of the ship and have it repair THE ENTIRE SHIP AS ONE UNIT?!) But having a 40 second battle with some AI, then having to spend like 5 hours checking every nook and cranny of my ship for damage (and still possibly missing some in an interior block!) is not my idea of 'fun'. I don't give a shit about that, and I wouldn't even mind combat if ships were easy to repair. It made the most fun thing about the game - flying after enemy ships with nothing but a jetpack and grinder - completely impossible.
Ah, probably unchecked the Drones checkbox, whichever that was.
