If you don't have the HACKING SHEET Ignore this message:
(otherwise go down)
OK
1) Programs stored on the deck can be used at any time and are
instantaneous
2) If you fail making a program(while not fighting/on the fly) of a
certain type you cannot make one of that level or higher for
(level) x 15 minutes.
3) Templates go with the item cards - there can only be one copy per item card.
Programs (made using the templates) are freely distributable to other decks.
4)Each template takes up 1 MPU
5)Each progam takes it's level size in programming, unless it says otherwise
6) All decks have Slice and Block templates in ROM (no room taken up)
7) Some decks may also have other programs in ROM, but you'll know if you do
8) You need a Cracker program to get into datastores
9) There are a limited number of times you can get into datastores. Each time you
use Cracker, you use one of the Puzzles up. (Destroy it when you are done) When
there are no more puzzles, the data store will deny you access, until the GMs
get time to do a Cyberspace update.
10) Data (data cards) do not take up any room in memory, unless it says otherwise
11) There are things/data in cyberspace that are worth a certain amount of money in
general. They are clearly marked as such.
