I just got my copy of JTL yesterday and immediately claimed my Party barge and went in to space for a look around. I have to say this is an awesome ship to have and I can't wait to throw a couple of parties on it. However, when I got my droid out to try playing music there, I gota message saying I could not group with a pet in space! Is this how it is supposed to be or is it a bug? It will be really disappointing not to be able to use our entertainer droids to create that full band effect on our party barges. I did try grouping with my droid first on the ground, but when I got to space he had been stored.

Does anyone know if this is possible or will I just have to rely on getting 5 musicians to play to cover all the sounds and therefore reducing the party to only 15 people?

Cheers
