Hail tailors and clothers of SWG i was asked to take a poll of your ideas to see what kinds of functions youd like to see incorporated into droids. So that they may better help you do the things tailors need to do. Please feel free to post any ideas for new droid functions or changes to existing droid functions, thanks for you input!

Well, I already have the clothing/armor crafting station in a droid .... but what I would love is MORE STORAGE!! 10 items in the droid is just not enough!


Or maybe i just have too much stuff!

I'll abuse my evil stickying powers and sticky this for a few days. After all, coming up with ideas is always fun and the different communities helping each other is a good thing I think! Anyway, one idea that I can think of is the holo-manneqin. The droid would make a holo-projection that I could put virtual clothes on. I would basically choose the race and sex of the mannequin (just like making a vendor if you have the hiring line in merchant) and then by using the virtual clothing crafting tool built into the droid I could make clothes to put on the holo-mannequin so that the customer could see what an outfit would look like. I could then get the color and combination of the clothes just right before spending resources on the real thing. Its kind of starwarsy and convenient, but it is probably too ambitious and might have some consequences I haven't thought of, but coming up with ideas is fun! So if you have ideas, go ahead and give them! They might not lead to anything actually happening, but it probably can't hurt to think about it!

More storage would definately be great...10 items is kind of lame.

/agree. Since you can only have up to 5 droids in your datapad, and depending onthe profession most already have a variety of droid types. True you can have a droid with multiple functions, storage, datapad, crafting and so on..but some professions are very item intensive. Most crafting professions are item intensive like tailor or armorsmith. Maybe your main profession Dancer or Musician, and for some they feel the need to have a wide variety of clothes to wear to entertain in, not to mention having to tote around instruments for musicians. And we entertainers dont like having to wear a back pack or bandolier. Maybe you have a crafting profession and an entertainer profession..anyway...


So what you would need to do is fix it so that the highest storage module will cause the droidhold more items then 10. Even just15-20 items would be a little better.Either that or, heaven forbid, make it so we can have more droids in our datapads. Though Im sure most would rather that each droid would hold more then 10 items. Or as someone else suggested, invisible backpacks.

I'd love to send my droid to fetch things from my factories or even to load items into it for me.

I would love to have a droid do factory runs for me HAHA, even just picking up finished product abd bringing it to me would save so much time. I absolutely adore the idea of holographic mannequins - oh so much fun would ensue!

I wish I could have a droid fold hawtpants and iron revealing skirts for me, its so time comsuming!


Seriously, I always thought it'd be cool if the protocol droids could actually speak and have personalities, like supportive, or anxious (C-3PO) or whatever. One thing that might be real cool as well is if they could have mini-factories put in them. A lot of tailor items require factory components, and lets say you are out and in the middle of cnet. You could do a mini factory run, and get only 5 or 10 max components out of your robot. Seems like something they could do, right?

That and have the binary load lifters actually go to my harvesters and collect the resources! Of course, I am pretty sure that the DEs are experts in asking for that.

More item storage, or... hmm... perhaps better ent droid effects? And fetching stuff from my factory would be VERY nice.

my suggestion is more related to other crafting profs than tailor in particular., but i'd like to see the ability to have crafting modules in droids with a higher effectiveness than 0.00. architects can make private stations with stats in the +40s, so why can't DE's?

After some more thought... and it isn't tailor related, but I'd love to send a little mouse droid with an invitation to a party or wedding with a little holo image, maybe have different images like hearts, flowers, stuffed banthas or swords, pistols and ships for all occasions.


I would also like a delivery droid please. Send him off to deliver a custom order for me.
