Notes

The droid's current order can be determined from it's .order property. For more infomration see Droid object.

It's not entirely clear what will actually happen to your droid when you tell it to "STOP" - the effect will probably depend on the type of droid and what it's currently doing. It's probably best to issue another command immediately afterwards (for example, DORDER_HOLD) so that you know for sure what your droid is doing.
