This was my first time make advanced frame units in my factory... are they supposed to come out in crates of ten?

Why are you making advanced droid frames in a factory? Unless your a Master DE. I have no idea how many ADF's fit in a factory crate.

Heh, good point... ADFUs are excellent grinding material, so why not just grind 'em and actually CREATE the things until you hit Master?

OK, so the 'TAB' key is a problem, as it takes one to 'Submit Post' and the next 'space' or 'Enter' presses the button.

Anyways, I grind ADFUs, and drop them into the input hopper of my crafting station. Those things come in awfully handy, and the experience is worth the bother.

Because I'm using these in my factory to make a few (ten, actually) advanced R2 frame units, that's why. I have lots of crap steel to grind with - I'm making these with good steel. This way, I won't find myself short a frame unit if a customer wants a droid and I've used up all my steel.

Well, assuming you ground MSEs straight from Novice up to Advanced Blueprints so you could make ADFUs, and then ground ADFUs all the way from there up to Master, at 440 non-practice DEXP apiece, you'd wind up with 2,531 Advanced Frame Units (incidentally, requiring 379,650 steel and 177,170 fiberplast).

Oh, in case anyone was interested, R2 Advanced chassis come out in cratesof five as well.
