Are there any rules that say what a sensor package (esp. drones, vehicles) consists of?
Does it have a camera or a microphone by default? Or do you have to buy and include these as well using the capacity rating provided by the sensor package? Bye Thanee |

Doesn't seem like the the sensor packages come with any actual sensors already in them. It just looks like a handy "grouping" that sets the capacity and signal of any sensors installed in the package.

Yep, Arsenal has a listing of what is in a Vehicle sensor. Unfortunately nothing for any of the other sizes...
PS: QUOTE (Arsenal p. 105) All vehicles (including drones) come readily equipped with a sensor package, whose size depends on the size of the vehicle (see the Sensor Packages table, p. 334, SR4A). Each sensor package has a Capacity that determines the amount of sensors that can fit into the system.
In general, a standard vehicle sensor package (Capacity 12), will contain the following sensors: • Atmosphere Sensor (taking up 1 Capacity) • 2 Cameras (front and back, taking up 2 Capacity) • 2 Laser Range Finders (front and back, taking up 2 Capacity) • 2 Motion Sensors (front and back, taking up 2 Capacity) • Radar (taking up 5 Capacity) These sensors are described on p. 59 and pp. 333–335, SR4A. Drones feature smaller capacities and so will have fewer sensors; small drones and smaller typically drop the radar in favor of other sensors |
