Improved Deploy Function#21

When a player Deploys their bot from their fleet management tab it almost never works as long as their factory is functioning correctly.

Maybe what should happen is that it’s dropped, much like when a defense platform is destroyed, and set as very high priority for the next opening for its type in a station, higher than the ship assemblers making them but not shipyards (instead it’ll refill the shipyard that does send someone). Maybe also given a little boost of lifetime before it dies so it has a higher chance of not being destroyed before an opening arrives.

If we want to avoid the player being confused why it’s just hanging there, we could also send it to hang around an appropriate structure while waiting so it seems like it rejoins the factory fleet seamlessly.
