Continues matrix icon repair.

Page 218 SR4 accessing multiple nodes, when accessing multiple nodes with multiple icons engaging in combat damage applied to one counts for both.

It follows that a medic program applied to one would apply to both. Thus when going on a run where you expect your icon to take damage you also send your icon to a safe place where you load an agent with a medic program that will continually repair your icon.

This is a useful trick analogues to the old have a healing mage with a med kit watch your meat when you’re expecting to face black ice.
