Thread: Droid Schematic List: Recommended revision posted to the Corr. boards (04/26/04)
I wanted to let you know that I've posted this to the Corr. boards so the Dev Team can have access to it whenever...
Let me know what you think of this list (i.e. recommended changes, tweaks, further revisions, etc.).
ETA to Publish 8: T-minus 18-24 hours and counting....

Respectfully,
I'd mentioned recently that the list of parts/schematics for DEs is getting entirely out of control.
I submit, for your approval and/or discussion, a proposed reworking of the list of DE/droid parts and schematics.
I believe the sections and layout of the parts/schematics below makes a lot more sense and should make DE lives a ton easier.
I know we are pretty well at the end of our 'love' for awhile but I'd still like to see this change put into the mix somewhere when it's possible.
Thanks in advance....let me know if you have comments.

Nice list, I like it.
But wouldn't the Droid Detonation module and the Scout Trap Projectile module fall under combat?

The reason I didn't do this is that it came in with the "Utility" module set.

We could put it there, if you all think it makes more sense. This is just my first crack at trying to make a better organized list. I don't know if/when we'd actually ever see this but I know the current "Component" list is getting WAY out of hand.

Respectfully,
My personal thoughts on the L1-6 modules is that all of them need to be scrapped and replaced with one module that is experimentable.
Currently experimentation means almost nothing, and we have 5 levels of modules that no one ever uses unless they are new and don't have the materials for the better ones yet.
I think it makes sense but not really that big ofa deal. Either way is fine with me.

Personally, as far as armor modules are concerned, I think there should be 2 of them. One "basic" model that replaces the L1-4 modules and another "advanced" model that replaces the L5-6 modules.
Then, as suggested, base the resists on the experimentation level of the module with a bit of potential overlap between the basic and advanced models.
This would give "newbies" an armor module to make that is decent (say max 15% resists) while preserving a better module for the people who have the advanced components needed to make the current L5 and L6 modules. Give the advanced module a range from 12% to 20% and we'd be golden.
Good addition Kollos...I like it.

I agree. I made alot of money off of R5s with 2 experimented Level 3 medical modules, or item modules in them.
I also think this is a great list TK.

I think the system would be 600% times better with experimentation (resource quality and experimentation modifiers determining quality of module) instead of 6 different module level schematics for each type of module...You know, I never quite thought of it that way, but considering we're always making the "best" armor we have the components for anyway, why not rely on the system that is already in place to provide some distinction between the armor? The only complaint I can see is that some people like to just make the lvl 4 modules and stack them for lvl 6 protection without having to bother with the composite armor segments. That being the case, perhaps a Standar Droid Armor Plate and an Advanced Droid Armor Plate, the difference being the Advanced starts with a higher minimum base than the standard due to the composite plating used in its construction.
I really think this is right here - having 6 different plates is kinda silly.
Oh, and more on topic...I love the list TK, nice job once again. Please take notice devs!

Or just have a single module that takes a composite segment as an optional component.
Nice list TK
I would however move the combat items out of the utility section..it will make sense in the future
We may as well drop armour modules 1-3 and 5 and replace them with Droid Armour Basic / Droid Armour Advanced. Kollos is right again. I love saying that..it makes me feel all glowy inside 
Thanks
