I was just thinking about more modules for droids, when an idea popped into my head. I'm not sure whether it is new but here goes anyway:
a number of different factory modules similar to the ones architect's can build (ie. equipment factories, structure factories, etc.) can be put into droids, that are much smaller scales than the architect ones. For example they could create a max of 20 items or something like that and take slightly longer to build stuff. These modules could take up the same space as a cluster (so can only be put in higher level better droids, e.g r2's) and one of the componenets of buildingthe droid factory is the appropriate droid carfting station for the factory (eg. weapon/droid/general droid crafting station to go in a droid equipment factory module). They could also use droid batteries in a similar way in which normal factories use power. The droid would have to be out the entire time crafting and you would not be able to store it while it is building things in the factory.

many great minds think alike! this was on the list that went to devs, I believe, though not with a specified implementation.

Yup, that idea and many other similarly good ideas have already been presented... check out this thread for more details.
