Talk:Crew Droid
I hope you don't mind I updated this record to reflect the changes today. -- ryan
I would love to get info on where and how to deploy a droid to work, crew droid seems to be only as unassigned, wether this is purpose, or not, is left unclear. --Dexxter
- Correct. Crew Droids cannot be assigned to any buildings. For that, you need the other types of Droids.
Crew Droid Should be able to do more.
It would make the building of crew droids more interesting if there was some risk reward built into it's use. Sure, if it stays undeployed, then you can run missions. But what if you could deploy it to a fleet and get attack and defence bonuses? And in turn, could lose them in a battle? This would allow people to level the playing field if fighting a higher ranked player or larger fleet. And crew assignments/un-assignments should not be instant. It should take time to deploy to a fleet, say, a couple hours. And of course they would need to be deployed to the colony that has the fleet, or the fleet needs to be deployed to the colony with the crew, in order to do that. This way, commanders must way out the consequences of deploying rather than just doing it the minute that an attacking fleet arrives. That's my 2 cents.

I totally agree with Llyyd. I found this information while searching for something for the Crew Droid to do. I hate useless people and the same with useless equipment. If we can not create a job for them in the game, then how about a recycle feature, or downgrade/upgrade feature (to make them another type of useful droid). Thank you.

I agree with both Llyod and Grahan99. Currently you have debris "fields" that can be harvested. That would be a valuable use of non-productive machine by assigning it to a ship to retrieve resources, with a auto function until complete.

Personally I think every time you send a fleet out it should take the crew droids with. meaning you can only send out as many ships as you have crew droids. with out the droids my question is who is flying the ship??? now obviously if it is a person that has joined the game i dont think they should be lost in fleet action though.
