To make droids be of more use, incorporate an ‘upgrade’ system for droids. Basically think of it as ‘feats’ for our robotic friends.
Slicer level <whatever> skill, because slicers are good at reprogramming droids.
One idea might be that, for all those upgrades that are player skills, require the slicer to have that skill in order to upgrade a droid with it. IE, must be level 140 combat to do ‘blastdoor’
[b:knfxfr17]Upgrade List[/b:knfxfr17]
Sneak command
Movement (you can order the droid to different rooms)
Hide command
Blastdoor command
A piloting module – The higher the slicer’s piloting level, the larger ship the droid can maneuver? Calculate with shipsize list, not just small/medium/large
Repair equipment
Camera_sweep
Tail command
Recon (the droid acts as a mobile camera; players monitor it via datapad function)
Holoprojector (the droid would have a built in holoprojector, like the one Sidius had in episode 1)
Firstaid/revive/healwound
The list is pretty much endless in terms of what droids could have upgrades for. Adding functions like this would allow for more diverse droids.
Imagine a droid that has movement/recon. Probe droid!
Tail and sneak becomes a spydroid.
Give them a little more personality!
Also, let us set droid descriptions.
