Droids have a purpose! we don't need to invent new ones, lets use them for what they are intended for!:
Drudge work,
droids are supposed to make our lives easier, safer, less tedious.
- If i have a survey skill i should be able to program my droid to head west till you find consentration x% thjis would finnaly be a use of MSE's that wouldn't be completely unreal. send 5 out, sure2 die one gets lost, but the last two find you a spot to go put your harvs.
- the power droids servicing harvs is great
- a Minor factory modual, let my droid make an item at double the time rate of a harvestor.
- Let me program BLL to go get material from my harvs.
- Repair droids, gee let em repair! maybe some vehicle maintinace?
- Let repair droids go tend mystructure maintinance, just put bulk cash in the repair droid. He does the run for me.
- combat droids cool nuff, but forget this CH crap. DE's make droids, WS make weapons should i get to use em all.
- Certing some good droids? not a bad idea. here is a way to do it:
- every novice block gets a +x Droid level
- novice blocks ain't cheap
- everyone gets at least one
- it's a good measure of someones ability without taking this away from dabblers who choose not to master proffesions.
- Let Medical droids help medics but not be everyones healer bot,
- give em free storage for stims/wound packs, that the medic can auto-pull from
- let a droids med rating decrease the mind hit on the medic
- let med droids heal wounds in the same way as a camp does but only with high end moduals.
- Delivery droid: Let me put a modual in a droid the lets me send it to another player. Like a tracker just with less death in mind
- Protocol droids should have diffrent moduals to learn diffrent languages, then make it harder to learn languages for players.
- Let "floating" droids keep up with vehicles.
On the harvestor runs survey and such, yes the droid should be in danger of getting aggro, though a bit less than a player would, they don't smell like prey.
