/CustomizeDroid command?????


Has anyone else noticed this command and what Class can use it? Under actions i founr(sic) nead(sic) my macro a /customizDroid(sic) what does it do i want to customize my droids.



Dev response by Vass (James Whisenant SWG Assistant Buildmaster):


You need to craft droid customization tools to be able to use this command. They might be ready for the next patch on TC (after we push this one out), but I don't know that for sure.



I have posted in the TestCenter forum requesting clarification as to whether the customization tool(s) and the ability to customize will be DE-only ability. (Lets all pray it is).

Why not make the tool something easily accessible (perhaps with charges) so that the customer can colorize his own droids? I don't see why the customer would need to seek out a DE if he wants to change the color of his droid to match his new house or furniture...

No! I want them to come back to me (or another DE) to change the look of a droid. Not to charge them some high fee for the cutstomization, just to keep in touch with them.
Maybe I can even sell them a new and better doid

Iwill be happy with any droid customization options. I am really tired of giving people grey droids and they are asking me if I can change the color. I personally think that something like that should be a DE perk so that people would comeback or look for other DE to change the color of the droids. Afterall you cannot change the look of a person unless you are a image designer, why should it be different when it comes to droids.

I got a response from the Test Center post - apparently this was implemented on Test Center and worked up until the point the droid was stored then it lost it's color.


The DE on Test Center was the only one who could use it - so there is our answer - it's DE only! (thank God)!!


Yaaaah!
