Droid Engineer Archive

You know, running around inside a multiplayer ship doing repairs isn't all that interesting of activity for a player. I don't know why SOE didn't let R series droids with repair modules and item storage full of All Purpose and Conduit Repair Kits be called inside the ship, grouped, and assigned to repair systems autonomously as an alternative. Anyone going through Mos Esiley Starport already knows they already have pretty cool looking graphics for a R2 repairing something. And I'd rather send an R3 into a plasma leak than a player. Having to tell an R3 to repair a system each and every time something needs to be repaired would render it useless. Just like having to command a droid to harvest each and every single animal you kill makes the harvest module feature worthless.

Yea, I still think that there is ahuge market for Droids was really passed up in Space, there was is so much they could have done. do.

Don't count the space features done yet. JtL is still being polished, like the entire game is. Don't take my word for it, come out to TC and take a look at the newest option in the Datapad. A new DroidCommand Program interface has been added with Publish 11.3. It has a number of bugs atm, but it makes the programming function much easier.

Dont forget WEDs and LEs while youre at that list :-)

and power droids to supplement the capacitor/reactor.....
