Thread: Surgical droid..disappeared
I am a master medic and my durned surgical droid just disappeared from my datapad. I've been using him successfully since I got him with no problems. After latest pacth I called him, used him and he poofed on me.
I've searched the boards for siilar issues. Anyone else have any insight?
Droids now have permadeath. So, could he have gotten killed by a rabbit, mosquito, or rat?
Ijust converted to medic from artisan-pistoleer,I had a surgical droid last night, pulled him out in my house, looked good taught him stay, put him away and **poof** not in data pad.
I'm terrified that I clicked on dismiss, which I think is new, as I never saw it before the patch and it equals what the old release was. Which means bye bye surgical droid. I opened a CSR, but I expect I'm screwed. sniff, we had just bonded too. If I get him back I'm not taking him out again until I talk to a droid eng, to help me understand the commands.
Good Luck! I hope he is there when we pop on next !
Yeah, the"you're dismissed" commandis the same asRelease.. SCARY stuff.. I /bugged the fact that it's right there next to the normal commands you'd normally use from day to day.
Although, if you did hit 'dismiss', you'd still have to teach it the 'release word', so I don't think it should have disappeared like that. Also, when you release a droid, it usually just wanders off. It wouldn't have given you the option to store it again.. ever.
You may be screwed, but it IS a bug..a CSR should reimburse you. "Should" is a pesky word though.. hehe

I also lost my 30k lvl 6 Surgical droid after the mega patch.
I noticed that he had a talk option now when I ranthe mouse over him, so I double clicked him and *poof* no more droid! ![]()
I did the same thing --- accidentally hit "dismiss", then POOF. Gone. I agree there should be a "are you sure" message attached, or a way to recall the command.
Wow.. yeah releasing the droid by accident really sucks.
I lost my 21-B several days ago as well. However, he got gobbled up by a plains hunter that spawned in the middle of our camp. Dead in all of two hits.
When droid permadeath came on the scene i didn't mind it so much when my probot went bye bye in combat. But loosing my food/chem station / med module to a bad spawn really sucks.
Wish they would have at least given us an option to insure them.
