Ordered to find a replacement part for an X-wing, a Droid might commence a systematic search of the repair bay, then the docking facility, then the neighborhood, then the countryside, and so on- all while thinking its actions are perfectly logical. Droids must do what they are commanded to do to the best of their ability, but their programming dictates how they accomplish their orders. Without someone to command them, what would they do?Įven so, ownership and control are two very different things. To the vast majority of Droids, the concept of Droid independence is unthinkable. Although some Droid owners come to think of their Droids as friends, the fact remains that Droids are programmed to serve whoever is designated as their master. Droids are usually property, bought and sold like any other piece of equipment.
