An idea I had today while discussing SWG with some friends- Custom personality chips. I don't see how they would be that hard to implement (unless the phrase database is completely hard-coded) and it would be a genuinely cool utility type droid improvement. The droid engineer could have several dialog boxes to fill in during "programming" of a personality chip that would allow the phrases to be set. I think it would lend a great deal of uniqueness to the droids and give each DE a signature of sorts on thier products- Any thoughts?

It's a very cool idea, but it would be just one more thing that they'd have to store semi-permanently in the database. They do it for Vendors, though, with ad barking, so why not Personality chips?


Really cool idea!

Why though? Personality chips don't do anything as is.

why not? roleplaying is fun, and having a droid that says specific things when prompted would be nice.
