    "Take X drones" link should not require a count
    When in a sector with your drones, there are three links down at the bottom there - "drop", "take", and "take X drones". The last two both go to the same place, which prompt you for the number of drones to recall. It would be really nice (especially just after a war is won) if "take X drones" actually meant "take X drones" rather than "take some number of drones that I'll prompt you for".
    i.e. I'd like to click on "take X drones" and have it go straight to the "you recall X drones, you now have Y" page.
    Either that or just remove that link entirely as it's redundant with "take".

    No, I was a very new popsickle in March. I haven't been here quite a year.

    when i tried the link, it worked fine. are you using a greasemonkey script that might be interfering?

    in any case, i changed it to a text input instead, so you can either hit the button to accept the full amount that are yours, or inout a different amount to take.

    Really ? Very strange. I turned GM off, reloaded the page, and looked at the link destination, and it was identical for "take" and "take X drones".

    You're right. Can't see where I got March from...
