Title: Data Spikes and Drones
Post by: Fatespinner on <06-21-19/0501:10>

Hi,

I have a question:

What happens if a Decker attacks a drone with Data Spikes so that it bricks. Does is crash and stop working or the the autopilot takes over?

Is a drone protected by the firewall of the rig?

If it bricks, it crashes entirely. If it's a flying drone, you hope it has some natural gliding, but the autopilot also cannot do a thing.

If a drone is slaved to a Rig or some other device, it follows normal slaving rules for attributes. Iirc, that means you use the highest Firewall of the two.
