RE: Droids/R2D2 components... OK, sure. Maybe call them droids for now, and let the the Sci-Fi crossover guys worry about re-naming them later (that is, if they even use them)?

RE: P&N 2.6 beta... I don't know if it's really a bug or anything, more a play balance issue. I was testing several races, one of them with gravity manipulation. The G-spike engines seem really expensive, and I think will give me less propulsion per kT! They gave a slight edge in terms of distance travelled because of a lower supplies used value. At first glance they just seem a little too expensive to have a lower thrust ratio and only a slight gain in efficiency (In My Slightly Confused and Over-Caffienated Opinion).
