Issues with deploying and retrieving extractors lately ???

For about a month or so now, I have had some issues both deploying and retrieving my extractors. When retrieving them, sometimes it doesn't retrieve all of them. When I hit the retrieve extractor button, it will retrieve only 3 out of the 4 I have out and I will have to hit the retrieve button again to get the last one. Upon placing an extractor, sometimes it won't place it the first time. I will have to hit deploy extractor more than once to get it to deploy. Sometimes, I have to do it 3 or 4 times to get it to deploy my extractor. It does it with both types of extractors as well. It doesn't do it all the time either. Some days it works as it should but most other days it has issues. As I said, this used to never be an issue but it has become one. It isn't a game breaking issue, just a little annoying at times when it doesn't work and I am hitting the deploy button over and over again to get it to work. Just thought I would send this up. Not sure where this should go so I just put it here.

I'm having the same issue. I noticed about a month or so ago that I would go to get my drones and I would have only 2 or 3 to recover instead of 4. Then I noticed that I would put them out and then go right back to the planet to see if it deployed but then have to redeploy them. Sometime multiple times to get them to take.

The problem seems to be getting the extractor to deploy in the first place. The extractors appear to be extremely laggy when deploying to a planet. You can click deploy, select the extractor, and wait up to 2 minutes for the extractor to actually deploy. If you zoom away from the planet before the "RETRIEVE EXTRACTOR" button and the timer text appear, then the extractor will fail to deploy. Sometimes you have to re-deploy the extractor 3 or 4 times on each planet regardless of the network connectivity in the rest of the game. Once the extractor is actually deployed and the timer becomes visible, then they work normally.

I was fine until Saturday's patch. It failed to deploy one and I didn't notice until I was retrieving upon login yesterday. Then I set the ones to run while I was playing and somehow it said I had 4 to retrieve (instead of my max 3) when I got them later in the day. Before heading to bed it took several tries to get 1 of them deployed again.

My main issue is after retrieving the extractors, and then while trying to re-deploy each one, they do not stay deployed. I deploy 3 and only 1 or 2 actually stay deployed. I have to recheck each planet to make sure.

The 'list process' is getting out of sync. I've even extracted the same extractor, from the same planet, multiple times.

All of the above for me too. Sometimes fails to properly retrieve one or all and sometimes fails to deploy. Have to repeatedly retrieve and deploy. Deploying seems to have the most errors. Sometimes have to deploy 5-6 times to get it to actually do so. Also seems to be getting worse the past few days. Never have had this problem in nearly two years of playing.
