Well maitanance droids have really never been "broken" in the sence that they dont work. They have been rendered obsolete when they added the maintainance being removed from your bank automaticly.

I currently have a maintainance droid on my structures that i dont move, since the bug if you remove a structure before removing it from droid renders it broken, to pay maintainance for me when i think about it. It is also handy on buildings that you do not own but have admin on that get condemed, the droid still is able to pay maintainace so you can gain access but you got to do it before it gets condemed.

Do merchant discounts apply when the droid puts the maintenance in the structurs?

yes the droid recives the current maintiance in structures assigned to it then you assign the credits to the structures you want and tell the droid to do the maintainence run.

i do know that if a merchant is on admin on a house that they get the bonus, but i am not sure about harvesters and factorys though.

Merchants that qualify for the 20% maint reduction also get it on facotries and harvesters

Yes, Maintenance Droids are very useful. I use mine all the time. Some say hiring people to run maintenance for you or doing it yourself are better. They must never have used a Maintenance Droid before, or have very few structures to maintain.

From the slightly dated DE 101 thread...

Droid Structure Maintenance
The Droid Structure Maintenance Module has a two step process of use. First, the droid owner must go to each of his/her structures and 'Assign Droid' from the structures radial menu. Next, access the droid's radial menu and find the 'Structure Maintenance' menu item. This menu item has 2 submenus

Perform Maintenance Run - Generates a Menu of all structures that have been assigned. Three options are listed in this menu
- Cancel
- Add - Generates a sub menu that allows you to select how many credits that you wish to add to the structure.
- Go - Sends the droid on its way. The time that the droid takes will greatly vary, depending on how many structures were added and where they are located.
Edit Maintenance List - Generates a menu which allows you to delete a structure from the menu.

*Warning* Be sure to remove a structure from this list before re-deeding it, or this module will become inactive.
