Another thing that's not explicitly made clear is what function workbenches have in the wild. You might just assume they're there to let you tinker with your lightsaber mid-mission, but more often than not if you find one of these out exploring, they'll have an upgrade that can unlock brand new abilities.

Usually these are for BD-1 and will allow you to open up previously inaccessible areas of the map, but they can also be combat-based, such as the ability to hack droids that are low on health and bring them on your side.

Again, it's never made a big deal of so it's quite easy to miss, but check in at every workbench you find and you won't be disappointed.
