De-related fixes for the new patch:



  • Added new schematics for droid repair kits

  • Fixed super-annoying bug with pet control devices which prevented the 'CALL' option menu from showing up for several seconds

  • Fix for a few droids and droid schematics were not granting XP for their being crafted.

  • Now a pet droid won't ever have any armor unless it was crafted onto it.

That's it. This is suck.



The notes are at http://forums.station.sony.com/swg/board/message?board.id=TestCenter&message.id=15968

I believe they're saying that there were some instances where droids had an armor rating even when no armor module was used when crafting it, though I hadn't noticed that ever being the case.

I'm very close to saying **** this game.

Darth this is a major fix. Granted adding real Combat Droids would be good, but this one should help alot. My understanding is the droid repair kit will heal damage on droids. This means that a Probot with droid repair kits will be better than non-CH pets with pet stims.


Get ready to mass produce Probots and Droid Repair kits. I think Probots are going to start selling again.

This is getting very disappointing. I wasexpecting a better patch note on the DE profession then what they have given us. I just don't get how all the other crafting professions have a viable way to generate income and produce working material while we are here deperatly trying to stay afloat in the economy.


I don't get it. =(

You missed..


Bounty Hunter - added 5 charges to probots

Bounty Hunter - added 10 charges to seekers



Now, I thought we already had this - does this mean that seekers are now 20 and arkyds are 10?

We already had the schematics - the things didn't work. Does this mean they'll work? That isn't clear.

I think I actually saw several notes on that list that were already in...

No, there are several items in these notes that include things that have already been pushed to live.

That's my suspicion - so they pumped up the list by re-listing things that we already had?

Great. Wish I could do that with my code drops.

Don't forget, these notes are not complete, and included several fixes that have already been in place on the live servers.


This is also just a patch to the test server, items may be added before going live.

TM is right. There is already a schematic for Droid Repair Tool, which is craftable at Engineering II. I guess they thought it would be more fun to add another schematic than fix the one they already had in game. They probably didn't even know it existed.
