I’m running excavators on two accounts, only one of them actually shows the drones activity correctly.

It appears to be limited to just that one account, both characters are of course fully skilled to use them but this bug is quite annoying.

If I were to swap ships it would do the same weirdness.

If something is displaying incorrectly in game the cause is usually your client cache files. I’d start by clearing your cache and see if that resolves your issue.
