I love the change all bar one thing - why oh why can a droid not be called in a house?


Not even my own house?


I'm sure I read it right, but if someone knows better I would love to be corrected on this.

Shian, good point. I think the devs need to look into programing combat pets differently than non-combat pets and droids. I can imagine their logic behind not allowing pets indoors has to do with possible exploits with people pulling out a combat pet and attacking another character as he runs by. You currently cant see who is inside the houses on your radar so that would lead to a lot of griefing...


A distinction between the two should be made because it is not very fun to have to run outside a med center to pull out a surgical droid for example. (Now if surgicals eventually have combat modules that brings up and interesting quandry)

One of the fundamental design problems with this game is that droids are treated the same as creatures

Hopefully the devs will change this with droid invasion but I'm not holding my breath
