This idea/suggestion is Open. You can respond to ask questions or discuss the idea and either vote it up or down if you believe it should or should not be implemented, respectively. Popular suggestions and ideas will be considered by the development team to become reality in-game.
This prefix is applied by a Galactic Senator when they are officially sponsoring a post for consideration by the Development Team.
Proposal
Add some sort of visual element in your datapad to "Item Storage" droids to indicate how much they're holding.
Justification
We have a similar mechanism with belts, backpacks, and other containers we hold in our inventory. This addition will help droid users manage their bots a little easier.
Motivation
Players with multiple droids in their datapads can often forget how much their droids are holding, and it's super tedious to pull each one out and inspect the contents to find one with open space.
So this basic idea here is to give a simple little item count label/icon in our datapad for droids with Item Storage modules attached to them. It would be a very quick and easy way to identity which ones are holding stuff, and which ones have potential capacity for hold more. See attached image for potential mock-up, but if the devs have a better idea, then I'm cool with that too.
