You need view or gesture pointers to go make "go from here to there" meaningful . A standalone sound interface will always fail .

And for 3d space it needs ai, as omly ai can deduce the depth along the view axis by analysing context.

Then you need a cubic volume selection . With a relational addition .

"a,3,5 Select all except resting drones and fly to here."
