Full Version: Matrix System Question

Response can be affected by amount of programs running based on System rating.

Agent uses system rating of node its loaded into? So if corporate node is hacked and agent loaded on it, it would use corporate nodes system rating?

If agent hacks into corporate node after being loaded on commlink would use commlins system rateing?

Do dedicated corporate nodes have same program restrictions based on system rating? ( Busy corporate node could in theory have hundreds of employees running hundreds of programs at any given time. )

Many threads on this. You can search around the forums, but aside for proposed solutions, you're going to have to wait for the Matrix supplement before getting anything definitive (hopefully).

Did some searches, Serbitars info suggests "dedictated node" isnt limited by response/system as commlink or smaller node would be. Agent info just needs little clarification.

"Hacks into" doesn't equal loading itself and running on the target system.

serbitar's info would be house rules, for the record.

and an agent would have to load itself onto the system once it hacks in, otherwise it would be based on your commlink.

Programs would probably run on their workstations and data would be stored by, but not manipulated by, a file server. Client-Server, ya know?

Without house rules, yes.
