In pub 20 the Devs reworked the BH droids a tad. A good outcome is that in order to get the Jedi's name the BH will have to choose the option that uses up a seeker. Why am I not surprised Blixtev has never heard of this bug...Hello? Its been what? 2 years now?!?!?!?!?!

Cleaned it up so it is a bit more obvious what you are doing.3) If you use a seeker in "one use" mode then you do get a single location waypoint and it loses target you also get "Analysing biological signature... Target:XXXX"Glad this works, put this in based on Tanks feedback to us and running through it once the new way on TestCenter. The terminal greifing should be eliminated as it takes more of a time investment to even get to the point of finding a name.4) If you use a seeker in "infinite use" mode then you do get running waypoints but do NOT get a name.Seek mode is the only one that returns name.5) If you use a seeker in either mode on kash, you get the "too many lifesigns" message and do not get any waypoints (and heres the important bit) DO NOT get a nameUntil the Producers decide otherwise, Kashyyyk stays how it is.I am cross posting this in the bug thread in the hope they consider point 5 a bug and either fix the infinite use bug and give a name or make it a feature that to get the name you need to use a charge.Thanks to the jedi who helped me with this test, and vredak for testing with me.Glad to see the fixes put in work! Hopefully cleaned up the system a bit so new BH's do not get confused with all the sub menu options.

Honestly, that is what frustrates me the most. This has been a known bug for forever, yet now he is just hearing about it.
Im begining to think that we should relist our bugs on every single bug thread each publish.
