Now, before I spend a long time making thses through about four different ODF tricks at once, I want to know if anyone has actually succeeded in making am automatic recon droid that gets dispensed by players. I know Syth tried (same way I did the first time), but I'm *fairl* sure his just crashed the game like mine. Anyone had any success.

Oh and just to make it clear - if you haven't and have a suggestion please don't post it. I've got a way to do it that will work, it's just gonna take like an hour to set up.

There's no such thing as an AI-controlled dispensable unit - it won't work. You can dispense controllables, and by their very nature they need to have a controlling entity. You might be able to dispense an "auto" vehicle (I haven't tried that, so I can't confirm or deny it - which would work since recon droids are static models), but what Syth tried to do was make a CIS droid auto-controlled (which would not work as a vehicle). Regardless of how you think you might be able to do it, I'll just point you in the direction of the thread that's already discussed it and let you go from there:

Easy solution, doesn't take "an hour to set up."

Thanks Mav - that didn't help the recon droid thing but its a huge help with something else....

Grr...turrets won't use remote weapons if they're pilottype self. Oh well. Worth a try I guess.
