we all post suggestions, but I think it is a hard nutshell for the devs to crack

Yeah those mouse droids would be really cool for URVs (Unmanned Reconnaissance Vehicle) (they aren't aerial are they), I'm not sure about how you would get the coding right for indoor maps (inside an SD) since there would be multiple levels, how would the URV know which level it should appear on? Is there a way in the BF:2 engine to set how high above the ground a UAV appears according to where it is on the map?

the mouse droid was used for surveillance too, so why not use this mouse droid as UAV??

They are released out of special storage rooms inside walls, play Jedi Knight again and u know what I mean

I think it was Jedi Outcast, in a level u needed to control a mouse droid

Don't know if Jester's idea can be coded. And what's wrong with a UAV indoors? Use thermal imaging to see through the roof.

This is kind of like my idea, using monitors etc. Read this (just the first post):

ok sorry. what about.... can you code it so when a side captures a flag it will show a uav for the room or something. I mean they didnt know they were in a certain hallway just that an alarm went off and what floor they were on.... maybe have multiple floors as well. with flags on different floors.

very smart mouse droid

but I think he needs to take medication so he is not that paranoia

Well, it thought Chewbacca would try to steal the info and then it would have had to melt itself, so it ran away so it could survive.

Mouse Droids are programmed to melt themselves when in danger to avoid classified data being captured, which makes them parnoid.
