1. Sometimes shortly after I finish sticking two Drones on a patch, one Drone bounces off anyway. What am I doing wrong? 2. I'm not yet fast enough to stick Drones to patches if 3 of them spawn at once. So I was asking myself: Does it help to select an egg and hold shift and press right click multiple times on a patch on which I want to stick the Drone? I tested it and sometimes it sticks and sometimes not, but I'm not sure if the stick-probability is higher than if I'm ont doing this^^ 3. So if I have 16 Drones on the minerals, it's enough to look for single mining at just the closer mineral patches, because it's not possible to have single mining on the far away patches, right? | ||

So if I have 16 Drones on the minerals, it's enough to look for single mining at just the closer mineral patches, because it's not possible to have single mining on the far away patches, right? 1) It means another patch isn't being mined yet. This happens at a lot at the start of the game, that's why when you see pros stack right at the outset, they keep selecting the drones that are returning to the patch so that they don't bounce. 2) I wouldn't recommend any shift-right-clicking mechanics for ensuring double-mining. I'd just keep practising the manual way. 3) When you're at 16 Drones, it's not enough to only look at the close-mining patches because you could have a triple mining and a single-mining far-away patch. If you look at all the far away patches when you're at 16, however, and they're all double mining, then you know you're golden because you cannot have a triple-mining close-patch. | ||
