Reverse Engineering

[Daxton Bane]

Questions

1. If a certain quantity of a faction specific item (say a weapon) is acquired AND we would like to reverse engineer it, would it be possible to come up with a similar model (basically a knock off)? Would it require a factory submission to 'register' it for my faction to produce?

2. Would a modular upgrade require a factory sub? For example I want to create a new line of droideka but instead of blaster weapons systems I want to replace it with sonic cannons. Would the new droideka model require a factory sub?

3. Is it possible to install a droid brain into a suit of power armor or does it require an organic user?

Thanks.

Depends on what it is. If the original submission has 300 posts of development, expect to do the exact amount of development to be able to produce it in a new submission. Also, everything is subject to current rules and guidelines on balancing.

2. Would a modular upgrade require a factory sub? For example I want to create a new line of droideka but instead of blaster weapons systems I want to replace it with sonic cannons. Would the new droideka model require a factory sub?

This typically requires a modification; however based on just how much you change could very well require a new submission.

3. Is it possible to install a droid brain into a suit of power armor or does it require an organic user?

Power armor is for pc users. If you want to make a droid based on a specific class then make one.

Thanks.
