When I start building a building, I get 3 messages that say the exact same thing. Only one is needed.
cheers

not a bug if the engineer you're using has 3 drones.

what he is saying is that it doesn't need to say it 3 times. once is enough.

perhaps multitasking of the engineers drones could be done? i know it is intentionally not this way for a reason.. but with the emphasis being more on combat these days, why is it not possible to build 3 things at once to speed up the process?

I'd agree with this. And as for the OP it's not a bug.

You can do this already. Start building a structure then deactivate the first drone - you will then be able to build a second structure in parallel.

It is key when trying to multitask buildings that u deactivate only the first drone.. then select the place u want to build.. then build the second building.. if u deactivate any other drone, OTHER than the first one then it does not work.

Sure, 3x spam from 3x drones... but why have more than 1 drone? There is a bug for the system now.
I suggest just having 1 drone, & the more advanced engeneers would have stronger drones.

3 drones means the structure is built 3x as fast, or 3 different structures are build at the same time but at a slower speed.
1 drone means 1 structure is built slow, one at a time...

And we are trying to speedup game play not make it more slow and boring.
I like the fact you can split the drones between 3 different build sites.
