I finally make it to Expert Blueprints. I get the Probot Blueprint and it asks for an "advanced droid motive system". I do not see that listed. I thought Expert Blueprints let you build a Probot. I am by a droid crafting station. I do not have master artisan yet, could that be it?

Also it is asking for a defensive unit. Is that armor?

You need a private weapons/droid crafting station. Public wont cut it.

What do you mean by private. I am using the weapon/droid crafting tool that I carry with me, Not the public crafting tool. And I am standing next to the weapon/droid crafting machine in the city.

The machine you are standing next to is a public machine, you need to find the same machine but in someones house...or get a droid with a weapon,droid,general crafting chip in it.

With expert blueprints I do not see the ability to build a crafting droid. Nor do I see it in the listing for Master blueprints. I do not see any add-on for weapon/droid/crafting chip. What do I need to make this crafting droid?

You need to make a droid, any droid, that can support a crafting module.

You need to then build the portable modules that go in it. (Tree on far left)

You need to put the 2 together.

You will then have a droid with a crafting station in it that will let you do what you want to do. Or you can buy a house and a crafting station to put in it.

Has anyone actually tried using a droid with a Weapon Droid Crafting Module to actually craft droids? I don't think it would work. It isn't a droid crafting module, the droid part just tells you that the module goes into a droid. Not positive about it, but I would guess that it allows you to craft only weapons as a crafting module.

I thought i was making adv driod motive systems without a crafting station, buti cant remember. My dumb question is how do i make a driod brain? I think i heard someone say that you do that at a public crafting station, can anyone confirm this?

GUYS GUYS...Yes a droid with a 'weapon droid cgeneral' craft module does work..as long as you don't have any of the other 'craft ' modules installed in the same droid. I use my r2 and Adv probot just fine with the weapons module in it.

As for an advance motor....first you need to build a control unit under the artisan skill tree. Then with a control unit and your weapon droid general craft toll..stand next to a public/privat craft station (i usally traget it) and the option should be the third from the top. select it and go.

Now I have had sessions where I was standing in front of the station and some of my schematics 'seemed' missing. i just logged and relogged in and tried again and they appeared. Some sort of bug.

Hope that helps.

a reminder one droid can not hold two different craft modules like food/chem and weapons...only one will work. the other modules like medical repair and data storage all work fine with a craft module in it.

Please for give my stupidity, but you say build a control unit. There is not one listed. Can you be more explicit please. I am obviously missing something.

A control unit and some of the other parts required to make an advanced motive system requires Master Artisan...so either you have to be one, or you have to get one to make those parts for you so you can make advanced motive systems.

I believe what you're missing is the prepositional phrase at the end of the sentence, "first you need to build a control unit under the artisan skill tree."

Certain droid component components can only be created by a master artisan.

I am a master artisan. I don't see control unit anywhere.
