Thread: Why do I have to search forums to find info that should be in game? What deed to what planet?!!

I try to search this forums constantly and whatI get is a message that there are too many searches going on please try again later. I'm sorry but a lot of the infoI look for should be readily available within the game.


Case in point. I am a Master Architect with my second character on Corbantis. I have searched trying to find out what deeds work on what planets. I have yet to find any DEFINITIVE answers. This is information that should be in game. I should not have to waste my time seaching this forum. What sense does it make to not have that information available in game to the architects? You don't get to find out until the deed is made and by then you have used all your resources making the deed, only to find out it is the wrong deed for the planet you need it for.


This information needs to be added to the description in the deed schematic and should have been there from day one!!


This is absolutely rediculous.

I agree it should be on the schematics.


If you're still trying to find the answer then it should be in the FAQ.

I have been searching. Again I constantly get a message telling me that htere are too many searches going on and to try again later. And anything I have found is no definite. There is no absolute. All of them end with a question like, is this right or is this still correct.

Okay. The information you're looking for is easiest to obtain by making a couple small houses. The info *is* actually on the deeds.

However, off the top of my head:

Corellia: corellia, talus
Naboo: naboo, dantooine, rori
Tatooine: tatooine, lok, dantooine
Generic: Well.....

(And yes. Dantooine can have tatooine *and* naboo structures)

Pawlin is referring to the FAQ stickied at the top of this Architect forum, here is the information taken from there. Not in-game, but at least this is what you are looking for.


Now if only we could link directly to the FAQ from IG..........



Q-1.7: What planet can I build my house on? What house style do I need for Lok, Rori, Dantooine, etc.?


A-1.7: If you have an existing deed then it depends on if the deed was made before or after the player city patch. If the deed is post-patch then it will say on it what planets you can built on. Post patch rules are:


Post patch:


Corellian - buildable on Corellia, Talus,


Naboo - buildable on Naboo, Rori, Dantooine


Tatooine - buildable on Tatooine, Lok, Dantooine


Generic - buildable on Corellia, Talus, Naboo, Rori, Dantooine, Tatooine, Lok


(I refered to the buildable planets for small houses when checking the post-patch rules. I'm assuming it follows for the medium, large and PA halls too. If you know for a fact that it does not work for another house style then please let me know.)


Pre patch:


Corellian - Corellia


Naboo - Naboo


Tatooine - Tatooine


Generic - Corellia, Talus, Naboo, Rori, Dantooine, Tatooine, Lok


Q-1.8: Can I build a house or placea harvester on Endor, Yavin 4 or Dathomir?


The Empire has forbidden building houses on Endor, Yavin 4 or Dathomir. However you can place harvesters on the advanced worlds.

actually I think the schematic says which planet the house is buildable on if you look at it in the Data Pad.. or at least it did.. Ill look when I get home to day to confirm.. Also if you look in the Knowledge Base in game this is a question that should be answered there..

Actually, it's not. Try it (Or my memory is failing me altogether ) But I do think it is indeed displayed in the datapad. Since you actually see the deed there.

It is on the deeds, though. The information on the schematic would be better.

I *think* the answer is somewhere in the holocron but using that beast is like self-multilation, IMO.

Ok. NO IT IS NOT DISPLAYED UNTIL THE DEED IS ALREADY MADE! AND NO IT IS NOT ANYWHERE IN THE HOLOCRON IN-GAME SEARCH. I looked there and thenI came here. The only place it is displayed in-game is on the deed AFTER it is made. Well that is not a lot of help since you have already committed resources to it. Which is my whole point to begin with. I am now out the resources for a hospital and a garage because of this. Since I read in THIS forum that any deed worked on Dantooine i made Corellian versions of the hospital and garage. Now i am stuck with those deeds because there is no city growth on Corellia nor Talus. Yet of course the devs are not responsible and they can do nothing to reimburse me. I'd like to know of an instance where CSR actually helped somebody instead of their pat answer of there is nothing we can do?


As you can see my frustration with this game is just about peaked. I have been playing a year and there has been barley any improvement. The only CSR improvement is that CSR actually answers support tickets. i can remember when they didn't answer them at all.

Couldn't agree more mate.

CSRs and customer service in general should be Correspondents ISSUE #1 at the summit.

Having said that, if you ever have and questions you can send some of us ingame email.

You raise a number of issues:

1. the fact that constraints on a structure should show up in the schematic in the data pad and/or crafting tool *prior* to crafting the item

2. the fact that CSRs won't reimburse you for your resources in making some structures that can't be built on Dantooine

3. that information in the Architect forum led you to believe that you could buld Corellian versions on Dantooine

I don't have any comment on the first two issues you raise here.

However, we try very hard to get *correct* information here, particularly in the FAQ and other stickied topics. I haven't seen anything that would lead me to believe that a Corellian structure is buildable on Dantooine but I may have missed something. If you can point us to where the incorrect information is given we can do our best to correct it.
