Thread: A possable bug found with most modules
hypnictek wrote:Medical, Combat, Harvesting, Storage modules are not stacking right. I tested by making droids with all the same type modules. Storage I can only get 10 as max.. this is with 6 x11 storage modules. Harvest, droid states it is lvl84.. i harvest just as good with droid that just has 1 of the same module in it. Medical.. same story... lvl4 modules and end result = lvl16 medic. Obviously when they did the CU, it converted all components stacking to = crafting modules that were not meant to stack. This has converted myself only to make entertainer droids since i have not seen any flaws with them yet, or cheap MSD droids that only take 1 or 2 (advanced modules) crafting droids. My armorsmith still waiting for patch to the imperial psg crates that was promised to be fixed in a week after CU when it was reported. Can you imagine if Microsoft or Oracle had programmers/devs like SOE has... MY god! it would be the end of the world. All i ever see is peeps like us posting fixes and doing the job of testing that company's pay a department to do. We are happy to test for SOE, but why pay SOE when SOE should be paying us. Please fix these problems in all professions to justify your monthly rate on 'service'.Thanks
Not quite sure I understand what you're saying here for most of them. Are you just complaining that the modules never get any higher than the rating of a single level 6 module (its always worked like this and doubt it will ever change), or is something else going on.
As for the creature harvesting, are you harvesting or are you having the droid harvest, and what is your skill versus what is the droids, and are you grouped or ungrouped.
Not exactly sure what you're saying here, but I'll try to respond.
10 has been the max for the number of storage slots for quite some time. It doesn't matter how many level 6 storage modules you put in - you won't get more than 10 capacity.
The harvester droids only show a bonus for Ranger and Scout. Your signature doesn't show either of them as a skill.
The medical modules are capped at 110. The level 16 you're seeing is, I believe, a 110 ability when placed in a droid. This translates to a level 6 medical module, or two 5's, or two 4's.
I'm sure if I have mis-stated something, I'll be corrected in short order! 
Cheers!
I guess there is no bug by the replies I just find it useless then for combat droids then. I use 3 combat mod's in a probot and get the same results as using all sockets/clusters with same combat modules. If the is tru what was posted to the medic droid modules.. then just a couple mods will give the max? In that case, that is good (can't believe I used the term good). Harvesting mods.. I am confused on .. i get same harvest rate grouped/ungrouped and it does not even come close to my harvest i can do myself. I have an older harvest droid with 10-20 (in there somewhere) rating.. it harvest the same as my 84 rating. (my toon is respec and I have more than one toon). Sorry if i talk in circles, just trying to be like a csr.. talk in circles to get you more lost, j/k Storage only going to 10 is total crap. Why have all the lvls and exp on storage mods when you can get same results in the end with a low level module. I had a BE that needed high storage that he can take with him. I looked like a scam when storage rating showed 60+ and when he activated droid, he saw only 10. I think swg should not only give us DE more info to droids.. but to all players too so they know what they are buying. I lost a furtune on combat probots... had combat rating over 300 and the buyers thought that was the attack max damage (Including myself that uses same probot since start of toon). I yet figured out the purpose of a med droid now after cu.. I see no effedts with my master doc. I seriously think we need a published A,B,C on droids/components/what the rating means.. i read several DE facts and info posts that were to vague. Anyone is welcome to help us out understand these things.. I'm not the only DE on my server that is lost like I am.. we all thought it was a bug 
Thanks, I know I need to update proflie

There pretty much is one. That link should have answered all those questions (and is generally recommended reading for anyone with an interest in droids). I don't think its been updated with the new combat droid stuff, but any of the other parts should be up to date.
As far as the harvesting module goes, the amount the droid harvests is dependent on your skills as well as the droids. If the droid's skill is much higher than yours, the droid will harvest a percentage more than you, if the droid's skill is a little lower than yours it will harvest about the same, and if its a lot lower the droid will harvest less. At least, thats the best anyone's been able to figure out.
