I have a player interested in pl aying an AI (In a drone body) and has some basic questions as it has raised some details I had never thought of before.

An AI is limited to the response of a node it is occupying.

This makes sense but brings up something that I have never considered (the only hacker I've had to deal with is a TM). When an AI, for that matter a hacker is attacking or interfacing with a node, where are they occupying? Are a hackers programs that they are running, affected by the node that they are currently "in" or the juiced up commlink on their hip? Do their programs travel with the icon and begin execution upon the remote node.? Or is the situation more like a datafeed ?

Also as a side note, I note that AI's seem a litte worse off then hackers in general. Any good houserules that people have come up with?

Thank you
