This thread is for coming up with ideas for a Class-specific utility module for the upcoming Droid-Engineer revamp.
Personally, here is my idea:
Droid allows remote monitoring of all Harvesters.
This ability is accessed through the radial menu when selecting the droid.
Main menu - list of all harvesters, planet, coordinates, resource, concentration, and % capacity filled.
Actions available:
- Admin rights
- Hopper rights
- Pay Maintenance
- Select available resource
- Rename Structure
-------------------------------------------------
Alternative 2nd idea:
Droid allows expanded surveying range, up to 1024m while grouped only.
--------------------------------------------------
Alternative 3rd idea:
Droid allows resource information retrieval on any resource surveyed in a concentration greater than 25%
This means once a resource is surveyed in a 25% area, an examine window appears in the survey window with the stats of the resource.
example:

The problem is, harvesters/structures don't "exist" unless someone is near them.
That's basically the stumbling block (I thought data terminals would be excellent for remote structure management), and I'm sure others can explain it better than I can.

This is true.
Anyone else have any ideas that could benifit Master Artisans specifically?
If we dont talk now, then we will completely miss out on the Droid Revamp.

I can't think of any module that would benefit artisans alone, other than a survey module. Since most crafting classes are almost identical, we'd all benefit from the same modules.

How about a droid module that allows the droid to assist in the sampling of radioactives. That way they can be safely sampled and contained with no danger to the user.
