Some basic combat rules

Hi, I dunno if I'm an idiot and these answers are easily found elsewhere, but I can't find them. I'm not familiar with d20 Star Wars rules, but I am familiar with 3rd edition D&D rules, and I realised I've been making some assumptions that perhaps I shouldn't.
First of all, attacks. In D&D every 5 points of base attack you get an extra attack, so 2 attacks at 6, 3 at 11, and 4 at 16. Is this the same in KOTOR?

Secondly, dual-wielding. When wielding two weapons (with or without the feats, if they make a difference to this?) do you get just one extra attack with the offhand weapon, or one extra attack for every normal attack you have? And, presumably, even if your off-hand attacks match your normal attacks, when you get extra attacks from Flurry or force powers these only give you 1 (or 2) extra attack with the main weapon, yes?

Finally, someone told me that Jedi classes get extra damage when wielding light-sabers, in the Star Wards d20 game. Is this also true in KOTOR?

As far as I remember, You just have one normal attack throughout the game.

Flurry and dual wield add one attack each - making it 3 attacks/round, and the Master Speed force power can temporarily add up to 2 (I think, I haven't used it myself), for a total of 5 attacks/round.

In KotOR, Jedi classes do net get to do extra damage with lightsabers; rather, non-Jedi are not allowed to use them at all.

Hope that helps,
Carrie

Thanks, that helped alot. Never occurred to me that you'd never get more than one standard attack, that changes everything
