If you are a DE, you can have 5 droids in your datapad.
If you are not, you can have 3 droids in your datapad.





You know, I could swear that I've spoken to non-DEs who have more than 3 in their datapad. I'm pretty sure this is just a rumor (besides this makes it sounds like DEs get a perk - we all know that we don't have any).

And I'm pretty sure that the Item Storage capacity progression is 1/2/4/6/8/10.

Great idea - I know a lot of DE's spend a lot of in-game time answering these questions, and it's a pain trying to find answers in these forums.


If I may add a question, from a non-DE, buyer perspective? You've done a great job describing the modules, now how many modules can you put in each kind of droid? (I realize that you'd probably have to split this up between combat and non-combat droids).

I actually have all this information on my price list...

http://www.legends-swg.org/droids.xml

But I'll incorporate it into the FAQ.

The 1st 10% of the code takes 90% of the time; the remaining 90% of the code takes the remaining 90% of the time.

Great faq!



two glaring errors to fix:



level 4 item=6 storage space


level 4 data =110 storage space



Still can't make level 5 or 6, so I make these all the time. Trust me, i'm right

That is to say, can't make 5 or 6 due to continued lack of Lidium ore.



I've had the schematics for ages.

Wow! Thanks...As a non-DE, I am just starting to look at getting a Droid or two. Thanks for the info.


But I did see any information on Powering droids and keeping them charged :


Thanks

Ok, I'll make those updates too....

Here is the list of droids and their components. I took this info from swgcraft.com, and I think they may have outdated schematics (specifically for personality chips). Can someone doublecheck these for me please?

Whoops, imagine if this board had an edit function....

PS- Excellent job Xaldain_. I've been a Novice DE for about a month, and even I learned a lot from the FAQ. Thanks.

After the first big patch medical modules ratings are:


Level 1: 55


Level 2: 65


Level 3: 75


Level 4: 85


Level 5: No idea.


Level 6: 110


This goes for medical modules built AFTER the Big Patch.
