Droid Customization Kit Game MechanicsThis multi-charge tool allows you to customize the colors of many of your droids. The droid customization is the number of times you can "call" your droid o fyour data bad before the colors fade back to their defaults. There are two ways to use the customization tool. The First is by placing it on the toolbar and then using it on the droid after targeting it, and the second is by clicking the droid directly to target it and then manually clicking the item in the inventory and clicking the Use radial option. This will bring up a window a couple of options, depending on the droid. Some droids will have the option to customize the Frame and the Trim. Others will only have an option for Frame color only. Once you select one of these, a color palette will be displayed. Selecting a color will change the color of the droid. Selecting OK will make this change 'permeate'--at least for the next 2000 calls.
The droid's initial customization scheme is created by the droid engineer during the customization process in crafting it. Once a player uses the deed however, the initial customization will last for only 20 calls before the droid will default back to the original color scheme for the model of droid. After these initial calls are used up the player must use a customization kit to change the color scheme or have another player use one on the droid for them after giving consent. Each customization of your droid counts as one Charge use. (So to color BOTH Frame and Trim uses TWO Charges) Currently, each Customization lasts for 2000 "calls" of the droid, meaning a player may unpack the droid from their datapad up to 2000 times per each use of the customization tool. A player may view the current number of calls left by reviewing the droid in the datapad and looking at the Customization Lifespan attribute. This will list the total remaining calls the player may make before the droid will default back to the base color of the model.
of colors than other players. Droid engineers have a larger palette due to having customization modifiers.
