apathic Posted July 14, 2003 Share Posted July 14, 2003 Okay I bought an R5 unit yesterday and have no idea what to do with it. All I can do is "Call" and "Store" it. How do I teach it that I am it's owner, and name it and all that stuff? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neversober Posted July 14, 2003 Share Posted July 14, 2003 Ok I had this same question on the weekend and someone was nice enough to tell me so I will pass on the info. If you click on your droid and go to progarm you will see a bunch of commands. Lets say you click on "Follow Me". after you do that you can then type "Follow Me" and the droid will follow you (duh . If you want to name him you have to type "nameyouwant follow me". If you do this with about 3 or 4 commands your droid will rename itself. I hope this helps you out. Oh and buy the way make sure you have a backup battery for the droid aswell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Exar_reborn Posted July 14, 2003 Share Posted July 14, 2003 Do they do anything else? other than follow me around? Can they hold items for me? help with crafting? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neversober Posted July 14, 2003 Share Posted July 14, 2003 Not so sure about the "R" units.... All I have is a mouse droid and it can hold stuff for me...... It has other options like patrol etc..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kdubby Posted July 14, 2003 Share Posted July 14, 2003 I have a Probe Droid and it is a very efficient killer. I paid 11k for it, so I had very high expectations and it was very worth it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
apathic Posted July 14, 2003 Author Share Posted July 14, 2003 Okay, I did (with the droid "targeted" follow me Mandi follow me Mandi follow me Mandi follow me Mandi follow me Mandi And I got the droid to follow me. It still doesn't know it's name is "Mandi," and i get a question mark from it when I try to issue it other commands. What gives? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neversober Posted July 14, 2003 Share Posted July 14, 2003 I found that if I did 3 - 4 different commands in a row using the name I wanted along with them that the droid name would change. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Altus_Thrawn Posted July 16, 2003 Share Posted July 16, 2003 Hmm this thread is a bit old but: To name a droid: Lets say you want to name it "r2" Click on him>program>follow me then type "r2 follow" Click on him>program>stay then type "r2 stay" Click on him>program>group then type "r2 group" Click on him>program>patrol then type "r2 patrol" Of course not using quotes. I have two R4 droids. One of them is a medic droid, so I can heal wounds whenever he is out. They also can patrol, fight (but they are not good at it unless you have a probe droid), hold items (20 for mine), and be personal crafting stations.
