Suggestion-Driods

My idea, similar to professional officers and soldiers,

allow us to buy Androids, with GC, that never retire, never pay income tax, and can fulfill the function of High Level Workers.

their "salary" would be the cost of maintenance and supply

I LIKE IT !!

I LIKE IT !!

Androids? why is it that I tend to think of "Data" out of Star Trek.

i was thinking more like star wars

Mmmmmmmm...Good idea, Orbiter. Genetics corporations can make androids in the High Tech Industries. Besides, genetic manipulation in real life is undeniable.
Sorry if Google translator doesn't work well.

These are not the droids you're looking for *waves hand*

This is an interesting idea. We'll discuss a possible implementation. Naming them androids might be a little too sci-fy though.

If anyone has anything to add to this please post!

can i put in a plug for "Androids" we have shuttles, and inter-planetary space trade.

its already a little sci-fy-e, no matter

also, as it was kinda mentioned, this could be either/or, a corp product, or GC purchase, (or both like shuttles,) i suggested it as a GC only thing, because it seems more inline with professional soldiers.

Well, Jonni, it can be robots for the production process. Robots can be made by corporations of High Tech Industry. Electronics, bombs or car corporations can use this robots and humans as well. Like in real life, in a car factory they use robots to paint cars and humans for other parts of the process. Android is a name for a machine with anthropomorphic shape.
I'm agree with Orbiter.
Cheers!

In fact, attack drones are "flying robots".

i've always thought that "industrial equipment," was a loose term that could cover anything from tractors to automated robots. but separating them, would seem logical.

We'll of course have to find a suitable name for the androids if we implement them.

The proposed feature itself is a great idea and we have put it on our ever growing to-do list.

How about "Simbots": Simcountry + robots?
