DESCRIPTION​

The ID series since its inception during the Galactic Civil War almost a Century ago has come along way in being the foremost seeker droid. The Current model, the ID-21, continues the tradition of the small circular body with smaller appendages hanging from beneath the repulsor driven frame. The ID-21 takes most of its design from the ancient ID-10 frame of Arakyd Industries fame albeit with a few modifications in the form of a sturdier frame, modular equipment (including some mods that are deemed illegal in some systems/governments), and a powercell system that either extend the operation time of a droid or provide an emergency recharge for the main stationary powercell. The ID-21 Seeker Droid found excellent service in all sorts of fields ranging as scout/spotter droids for infantrymen to spy equipment for spies/assassins/etc. and even the local scout who is surveying a new world for which many can colonize.

LEGALITY​

On paper it is illegal to have ID-21s with Shock Prods and slicer equipment, but that doesn't stop a few industrious bounty hunters/ criminals/etc. from installing them on these droids. However unmodified the ID-21 is legal, albeit restricted on some worlds.

INTENT​

To create a seeker droid useful for reconnaissance, slicing, and espionage.

I dig this. However, I'd prefer if you didn't list a scanner suite as part of the equipment. Individual sensor systems should be listed under the Sensors heading.

 

[Kenico]

Well that's no problem at all! :) I will leave it out for now but i am curious as to that scanner suite would be part of the sensors? if not it will be left out if permissible ill add it to the sensors pack.


And removed @AutoFox

 

[AutoFox]

I'd actually much prefer if you picked some particular sensor functions and added them to the list, rather than using just a term like "sensor suite," as that's very broad and covers a lot of functionality. Maybe take a look at the astromechs and probe droids already approved for inspiration!

 

[Kenico]

I was meaning something a viper had but I’ll see what I can do and I’ll have a look at the threads you mentioned

 

[AutoFox]

Makes sense! And that's what I figured. Lemme know when you make any edits.

 

[Kenico]

Will do but if I may pick your brain any suggestions for said scanning sensors?

 

[AutoFox]

I would say pick and choose a few things from the 4EY scout droid and the Vanguard-class probe droid. Whatever you think works, and bearing in mind that it's a smaller, non-Advanced droid so you shouldn't try to put EVERYTHING on it.

 

[Kenico]

Right to be honest it seems solid already but I’ll take a look at those droids and I I like something I’ll add it and let you know but honestly it feels good as is

 

[AutoFox]

If that's the conclusion you come to, let me know and I'll approve it!

 

[Kenico]

I will give me 24 hours to do some final checks and if she’s good hope it approves

 

[Kenico]

@AutoFox I decided to add a Radar and Sonar Sensors to the Droid. IF that is too much then ill just remove them and the droid will then be definitively done. hope these additions work and shell be approved!

 

[AutoFox]

Approved.
