Most of the commands explain themselves, but I'll run through some of the commands with you.
- Follow Me This command will make your droid follow you as you move around
- Follow Other - Targeted command that makes your
droid follow the designated target as long as they do not take a shuttle or log out of client. Once used by many Master Droid Engineers as a form of CH griefing.
- Stay - This command will cause your droid to stay put
- Befriend- Allows a targeted player to control your droid. It Allows the target to issue limited commands
to the droid.
- Get in Column/Wedge Formation - Not very useful, due to
only CHs are able to call multiple pets/droids/perks. Can be issued so that the Droid does not 'sit' on top of your toon. This command causes your droid to assume a new position behind you
- Get Patrol Point - Marks a spot along a path for your droid to patrol. Allows a droid to store up to 10
patrol points, but only while the droid is present. If the droid is stored, you will need to re-program the patrol points. Patrol points can be up to 50 meters apart.
- Clear Patrol Points - Clears all stored patrol points
on a droid.
- Guard - Causes combat capable droids to guard a specific
target, including yourself. The droid will guard who ever is targeted. If no one is targeted, or an enemy is targeted, the droid will guard its owner.
- Use Ranged Attack - Toggles Ranged attack ON in some
droid units.
(Known Issue) Currently missing
- Attack - Use this command and your droid will attack your current targeted enemy (if combat capable)
- Transfer - Gives your droid to another player by adding it to their datapad.
- Store - This command puts your droid back into your datapad
- Use Ranged Attack - Only for droids with this combat ability, this command toggles Ranged Attack on & off
( * Combat capable droids only)
( **Combat capable R-units only)
( *** Cannot be reprogrammed)
( $ Repair module equipped droid only. Lists as 'Do Trick Two' in the datapad)
( % Power Droid only. Lists as 'Do Trick One' in the datapad.)
Now that you have a droid, what do you do with it?
Once you have called your droid you need to program the commands it will need. Target your new droid and open the radial menu.
To train the droid select and pick "Program" from the radial menu. This will give you a list of commands that your droid is able to learn. When you have selected the command, a "?" will appear over the droid's head and in Spatial Chat. The command can be made either in Spatial or by using the /tellpet command. A command can be up to a total of 30 characters in length and can consist of letters, characters, and spaces. Commands are case sensitive according to how you originally typed the command. Now say the command and the droid will respond. Once a proper command is issued, the droid will respond with a "!" over its head and in Spatial Chat to confirm that it has learned its new command. You can then verify that the command was issued properly by checking in the datapad under the List Commands menu in the radial. For example:
* Select Program from the droid's radial menu, and select "Follow Me".
* Droid indicates it is ready with a question mark floating above its head "?".
* Say the word that you want to use, "heel", bear in mind that this is case-sensitive so if you type it in capitals here, you will need to type it in capital letters each time you command the droid.
* Droid responds to indicate that it has learned that command by an exclamation mark floating above its head "!".
* Repeat for any further commands you'd like to teach it.
