Just a hello from all my droids! ( one of them got turned into Werewolf-human/droid hybrid after couple very tragic and unfortunate turns of events involving Tradeship, Jellies werewolf mod and morbid curiosity and Full-moon



(Would it be possible to get different paintjobs/and/or bodytypes for each droid type? I mean on the 'code' level! I'd know someone willing to provide the needed sprites)

Th-th-that's all folks!
That is an interesting change in fortunes for that poor droid :P Yes indeed they certainly can have different textures!  If I could figure out how to do it, I could add parts that are coloured  differently for each type, like how to stuff system works. I'm not too sure how that works though D:

Hmm, does this happen to every droid on the map when you save/reload? Or only a couple at a time? Are they charging when you save/reload and it happens then? I'll have a look when I get home and see if I can't figure out what is happening
Yep, after loading savegame, everyone of them stops consume their batteries power. Numbers just freezes.
I did have around 15-19 droids and just ~6 charge pads, so there is no way that they all will be standing on them at a moment of save.
Keep calm and become one with Russia, da?

I am very glad you brought this to my attention! :D I have fixed the issue, it was a really simple, stupid mistake :P basically when saving two variables, I forgot to change the name tag of each variable, so the second one was overwriting the first one, which caused the droids to not require power. I have fixed that now, and also added the abillity for you to set the priority of jobs that droids do.

Awesome, everything just awesome.
Is it intended that Builders don't repair things at all? Or there will be Repair droids someday?

Oops, that was a bit of an oversight on my part, I'll get that fixed as soon as I can :)

like now, you can use a robot to build a car because it's programmed, but you can't use a robot to repair a car.

true, but instead of "star war" i'm thinking more like "cowboy bebop" kind of future, if you know what i mean ;)

Ah, thanks for letting me know! :) I have fixed it now, people are able to shoot over them, but they don't provide any cover at all when retracted
