a guild member gets credit for this idea. he suggested a module for droids that lets you call up a mission terminal window anywhere. i think this is a GREAT idea. a droid could contact with the main mission terminal remotely and download all the mission info like a normal terminal. just another cool feature for droid engineers to play with. someonesuggest this to the correspondant if you guys think its a good idea.

Heh, wouldn't that kill places like Anchorhead, where everyone goes to pick up missions and chill?


Maybe not maybe so. I'd much prefer to put missions in my droid's datapad. 'cept I think this was an exploit, so I've never done it.

not everyone wants to take missions from AH and hang there. although there's nothing wrong with that. i've done it when i was moving up the rebel ranks. but it will give some freedom to some hunters and still allow people to make some money as well. just a thought on some more usefullness for droids. i can guarantee you'd sell alot of these kind of droids.

i know but i don't want it to seem like a jedi only thing or we won't get it. LOL it will benefit all other combat professions and DEs ofcourse for the extra sales they'd make. what hunter/grinder wouldn't want this. it would be like vehicles coming out and the lines we had to wait in to get our first ones. LOL

probably not going to happen. players used to have the ability to store missions in their droid's data pad, which enabled them to take more than 2 missions per player. the dev team decided that allowed player to collect credits too fast so they took the ability away. this module would have the same affect as that old ability did. somehow I don't think the developers would like it.

i won't have the same effect. you'll still only be able to take 2 missions at a time. you'll just be able to do it away from outposts and cities. maybe i'm not explaining it right. its just like being at the mission terminal at an outpost except you're not there. you're out in the field somewhere. you still have to travel to the mission waypoints and everything. its just you're picking the missions up in the field.

Oh gosh...how I long for beta....


When you could buy a mission terminal from the faction recruiter for you house - and it even worked when you carried it around in your backpack.

yea it would be nice to take missions in one direction to cross a planet/explore and make a few credits beside hunting and selling hides/meat/bone. I dont do missions more of the time becuase i prefer to be out in the middle of no where it could be nice but i would limit to one and also make the missions farther to travel.. aka you have to run 3-4k to get to the mission, to take the place of your run back to terminal to grab a mission time.


Things needed, camp, mobile up-link, droid with mission-data module.


Lets give master artisans something else to make, they need some love too

Mobile up link,

Central computer (Electornic memory module,electronic Gp,copper50) prior to final assmebly

micro sensor suite

energy distributer

(250titanium) frame,

(gas 75+25steel) coolant system- no part needed

(50 aluminun+20 copper) Micro wave dish- no part needed


Experimentation could give it further range, a rating or 4kilometers base with futher in experimentation id say up to 20k who knows how big planets will one day be : ) This could be a reusable thing.



You set up camp, drop your mobile uplink, im guessing it could be like those musician items that are droped. You call out your droid and he started to receive data.. Off ya go on your next mission. De+ and master artisans have something nice to sell, besides vehicles, master artisans are little more than power up makers, most people still goto chefs for there food needs, but thats something for another board.


I think this could make missions a lot more fun instead of running back to base every 15 mins how borring. aucually traversing the planet, on a quest to kill imperials, rebels, or just cirtters, there could be a lot of RP vaule in this to.. a small group of rebs break out across endor through the great desert hunting down imperails in the northern hemishere. A fewhunters decide to travers the deep woods of endor hunting crazzed gurreks and kill a few mad ewoks along the way. lots of potential here

Now that the mission term bug has been fixed (althoug who it was hurting I dont know), this would be a great idea
