I bought one recently and used it perfectly the first time. Then it just stopped working. This was a concern to me cause I just spent 35k on one for my hubby. So I pull MINE out yesterday and...nothing. Selecting Perform Maintenence Run does nothing, no sys message, no window pop up. I tried reassigning my structures and it told me that the droid already had them on it's list. So I wrote a ticket and here's what I was told: These droids are broken at the moment and not working as intended. Thanks for my patience, yada yada. I would REALLY have liked to have known this before I shelled out 35k. lol. Ah well. Heads up to the rest of ya.

As a heads up if you re-deed a structure and don't remove that structure from the droids maintenance list then the droids maintenance capability breaks.

Still #1 on our issues list...


I think I will need better hard data on when/where it does or does not work. That might help us to expedite a fix.


I'll start a new 'info gathering' thread so we can start to find out the specifics on the different configs. that cause the Maint. module to fail.

TK, while I agree with you that all the bugs with it need fixed, there are 2 sets of bugs.


#1. WIth us crafting it, it doesn't appear. This seems like it happens when added with outher modules that have radial menus.


#2. When they stop working after made. 100% sure this is tied to Destroying the structure before removing it from the Maint Droid.


Of both of those, #2 is the most important fix, it affects our customers and a product they buy. Plus currently because of bug #2 not very many DE's are messing with these modules. If they are, it is in MSE's. If #2 gets fixed, many more DE's will make Maint Droids, then we can troubleshoot #1 further.


So basically if #1 is holding up the fix for #2, screw #1 for now. They actually don't seem related. Get the droids working right, then us DE's will worry about putting them together.

I've gotten confirmation from TH that data on the Structure module problems has been passed to the bug/QA team.

So, we have only now to press him for when the fix will appear.

Tk,

Can you maybe find out if the bug of them stopping working is higher priority then the one with us making them?


Possibly they may be waiting until the modules are 100% fixed.


While obviously, I want ALL the bugs to be fixed on them, I would hate to think that the bug with them "working" may be fixed, yet they arn't putting it out yet because they can't get the one with us crafting them fixed.


Get them working and I / We will get them all the data they need on the bug crafting them.

I just make them on TC if I need to report problems....no worries.


I am pretty sure that they have the data they need to address the two different issues. I don't think they are related but they might be.


I'd rather see them fix the existing modules first, then deal with crafting, if I had to pick one over the other.

I have had the problem the origanle poster was describing with my droid(I only use it on my houses and Factories to avoid the Redeeding problem) what it turned out to be was just that the battery was dead and it did not even have the power to put *low Power* over its head. Just my 2 creds

Basically i had the same problem as Vaygirl. First day it worked. Hasn't since. Clicking the perform or edit items on the radial pruduce nothing but the button sound. I have not moved or replaced any structures.

Just bought one and it does not work period. Assign a harvestor to maintain and it shows up on the list. Tell it to maintain it and it tells me to add a harvestor to the list. Tried seveal times.

Make sure that it was a levle 3 structure maint mod that was put in it, a lower level one won't work on different planets.

I go to add a house to it's maintenance list and it says it's already on it... but I can't do anything. Stupid droids.
