If it's the combat revamp publish, the only thing I would ask is to put back armor rating on droids.
Maybe not like it was before, but AR0 with level 1-4 Armor and AR1 with level 5-6 module would make sence, and help alot.

Pub 10.1 is supposed to be a Top 5 issues bug fix.
And this is not in our top 5 issues sorry dude.

Here are the top five that I would like to see go in, dependent on how much time each profession is given....
In no particular order
Fix Structure Modules from breaking
Name Converse Style Droids
Fix Surgical Droid Storage
List Customer values on all Droid Deeds (damage and storage instead of rating)
Link all module usage to Power Status (crafting stations and storage)
Other Suggestions
The Naming filter would be really nice, however its already been stated a few different times that the name filter change would take weeks of time. If it came down to this one fix, or the above listed 5, I would take the above listed five any day.
Some sort of base Decay system would be another of the Top 5 issues, though it would be a rather condensed version of what is suggested in my sig.

Yes...I'd say this is a pretty realistic list of stuff that we could get addressed. We'll see when we get closer to that time.

1. I would like to see batteries be able to be put into droid inventories, and the droid would use them as needed. Im really tired of having to put new batteries in them all the time. It would also increase the amount of batteries you sell, as I will leave mine todo things (patrol) or what not, if I didn't have to recharge it every 20 minutes or so. An inventory full of batteries would only be about 50 batteries. Which if my estimation is correct would be about 24 hours of continuous power.

I'd rather just see a 'Backup Power' module. And optional module that can hold 1 battery (so up to 4 uses) that can automatically recharge the droid.
Any use of a droid that requires more than that many batteries and left unattended is probably just Barker Modules (which seems to last quite a long time as it stands now on just one battery).
This would give DE's yet another option to sell in their droids (I mean that as a positive), and would be a reasonable solution.
And increase in battery sales really matters very little to me since they are so cheap. And besides, battery sales wouldn't go up. Droids still consume them at the same rate, regardless as to whether the owner hand feeds them, or the droid could do it itself.

If there was only ONE thing that would be changed I'd rather have the name-issue for our talking droids fixed.
One year later - Still not able to name my 3PO !

responce, on a few
1, to me a well made droid does not eat batteries,.. mine can go nealy an hour before needed recharge. Power consumption rate should be shown on the dead. Maybe this should be tested but i know my droids go through lots less battereis than other peoples droids.
2, ill go with crafting stations on power, even data. But the storage.. nope.. ill pry that thing open with a screw driver : )
ill go with,
fix maintance
Name the androids.
fix storage on surgical
No batteries on a power droid...
I could ad lots more but i know they wont do any of the stuff i want till after combat rebalnce and we all know how long away that is. Survey R'2s, creature scaners for rangers.. riding in my landspeeder with my R2 co pilot. the list goes on but i think you get my meaning.

Good list Drashk and TK
Probably the only thing I would really want added is letting the "Harvest" command on Harvest Droids stack. Currently you need to select the corpse, give command, wait for him to harvest, then repeat. This can take a while as the droid moves around.
Ideally, you should be able to select, give command, repeat and the droid just Harvests in the order he was told.
While seemingly minor, this is a vast complaint of Harvest Droid owners. Make life easier for them, and make the Harvest Droid more popular.
