Thisidea I had is the use of droids like the droid in star wars battlefront, that allows yah to take control of it and use it to fight for you for a short period of time
My idea is to take that basic idea of using it as your eyes, but no weapons, and only to roam around your own houses, or houses your admin on, now to some this may seem pointless, but alot of players have houses in different areas, you may have ahouse in a city on tat, then a few houses on dant, a house on naboo, etc, now alot of these ppl end up wanting an item or 2, but are either unsure of what house they are in, my idea is for a droid that could be 1 use per like bomb droids, that you can tell to goto one of your houses, and act as your eyes for a short period of time, just enuf to check the house for what your looking for, I know personally how frustrating it is travelling around looking for 1 item
Also it could have a retrieve feature, making the droid truly useful to all, and giving DE's a droid that should sell quite well, maybe a max of 3 items or something that it can bring to you, maybe a few minute pause and then a message saying the droid delievers the items to your inventory, but due to extreme conditions, has self destructed, something along those lines
I posted this in the housing forum but i figured this would be a good spot for it, to see whether the people who make the droids like the idea or not
also the droids could either be like seeker droids, one use per type of droid, or have it were the droid can be used numerous times and requires you to generate it, and store it in your datapad, except costs the user credits per use, I think the first one would be better for DE's and cause more return business

An excellent and very cool idea.
I do wonder about the coding involved though. Your player would be in one zone, while the droid was in another. So you would kind of be in 2 zones at once. Would be interesting.
I like the idea, but seriously wonder if they would take the time to implement it.
