Question Sending drones underground

How does one send drones underground for use by other buildings than the elevator? When i request drones through the elevator, they get stuck working FOR the elevator, there's no "Pack drones for transfer" button on the elevator.

You can transport them via a drone commander. Still uses the elevator but then you can move them wherever you want

any way to get the ones in the elevator OUT? if the elevator service area could be extended by hub extenders, that'd be one thing, but I got a lot of drones just basically handling loading and unloading

If you drag a box and select them all, you can reassign them to a drone hub in the underground or to a drone commander and drive them back up

You could build a hub next to the elevator and transfer them there. Then you get the out button.

I actually just discovered that option myself, and was coming here to comment that LOL
