Do Advanced Drones Prioritize Target 1 over Target 2?
Does anyone know / have a hunch if the advanced drones prioritize the first target you give it over the second, while both sources and destinations are the same? Or is it random?

In my case, I'm curious if it will grab food target 1 more often than food target 2 when taking food out of a silo and burning it in the incinerators for my fire slimes.

Can't find anything about this on the wiki. I'll update with my findings later if possible.

Thanks!

For anyone curious, I tested it out myself...

Area: The Lab (not Viktor's Workshop)
Silo: 300 Hen Hens and 300 Heart Beets only
1 Incinerator with lots of fire slimes (~12-15 I think)
Advanced Drone programming:
Target 1: Meat. Source 1: Silo. Destination 1: Incinerator
Target 2: Veggie. Source 2: Silo. Destination 2: Incinerator

Day 85 23:42, 300 hens, 300 beets.
Day 86 21:13. 288 hens, 264 beets.
Day 87 16:40. 265 hens, 251 beets.
Day 88 18:23. 217 hens, 251 beets. (48 more chickens)
Day 89 15:10. 181 hens, 187 beets.
Day 90 19:10. 145 hens, 145 beets.

Day 91 20:07. 97 hens, 121 beets.
Day 92 23:26. 53 hens, 91 beets.
Day 93 07:51. 36 hens, 74 beets.
Day 93 23:45. 0 hens, 71 beets. (33 more chickens)
Day 94 23:42. 0 hens, 0 beets.

(I was doing other tasks while the food was burning so I wasn't able to watch it 24/7)

I thought it was pretty equal at first, but later on the chickens just went poof. Not sure why. Could be a handful of factors. Might be just by chance.

I have more questions aside from that. Does suspending items in your vacpack / silo / other reset the despawn / hunger / decay timer when you spit them out again? For example, if a put a chicken in the silo, will it reset whatever stage it was at before turning old and grey? Hmm...
