Apparently this happening at steam release as well.
so the basic complaint is the drones just stop doing their jobs: building, repairing, removing, and mining.

I have tried saving the game quitting then re loading the saved game the drones do their thing for about 5 minutes then they just stop alltogether.

its becoming annoying to keep reloading everytime they stop.

is there a patch coming for this or should I just get a refund?
Anyone?
