Hello, some questions :
1- The Street Sam buyed 2 upgraded obvious cyber arms, he need to up them a bit to raise up to his starting AGI.
- Does it use Arms capacity to raise the attribute to do so ?It depends. Customized Cyberlimbs (see Arsenal) don't cost capacity but can only go up to the Natural maximum of the Character, Cyberlimb Enhancements (BBB) however do cost Capacity. They can raise the Attributes up to the Augmentend Maximum.
- Does the raising account for the necessity to use a Cyber Torso ?Cyberlimb Enhancements above three need a Cyber Torso.
- He put some armor on both armor, does it add to global armor twice ?I guess you meant, he put armor on both arms. Yes that stacks, no avareaging since Armor is not an Attribute.
- Does adding BOD to cyber arms have any effect ?Of course, the augmented BOD is used in any BOD test that does not explicitly call for the natural BOD. Don't forget to average though, most of the time not only one limb is affected.

2- The Electronics, I got a bit lost about what exactly is needed to be buyed to access the Matrix, expecially in Software. I made every character buy a cheap comm-link, googles with visual interface and earbuds, is it enough ? What about a hacker character ?
A Sim Module and some form of DNI (Trodes, Nanopaste Trodes, Commlink Implant) will work like a charm. IMHO anyone should have a decent Analyze Program and possibly Browse and Encrypt. For the Hacker it depends on what he wants to do.

3- During play the Hacker try to access commlinks of people to control/hack information. Is locating them automatic ? need a line of sight ? same for apparel nodes.
LOS is irrelevant ther is the WiFi Scan Action in the BBB. It delineates what is needed to find nodes in the different modes.

4- Did a Maglock have a Node ? I ruled that this is not the case.
It should have a node but wireless is definitely turned off. So you could hacvk the lock but only with a cable connection. Getting this connection should be challenging in and off itself, since the housing of the maglock should be made "tamperproof".
