You can make sense of it layer.  We got the loot time to scoot.

And wreck up the place a bit framing that troll asshole!

Yeah you'll need to do a computer + edit (4) test to cover your tracks. No VR/ar bonuses due to age of kit

You'll need at least 30 seconds of footage (30 complex actions) of good quality (threshold 3) to cover your tracks. Longer footage or better quality is onbviously better but takes longer. Cops are en route though so don't dally!

Ah. I can get decent bit away. And haven't really done anything got 5 on the first edit on the device. Haven't done the others yet had to head out for a bit. So every hit after 3 would make it look better? Guess I am asking that it is an extended test?

erm, as far as i can tell it is a complex action per second of video editing. it just takes a while to animate a character to make it look life-like so it reads more like a lot of individual tests rather than an extended test.
just put into invisible castle "30" into the number of times rolled rather than running one test 30 times. if you hit a threshold of four on every test then you'll create a more convincing video, but glitches will reduce the quality of the video so its a trade-off really.
the more time you spend on it the better the quality so the police are less liekly to suspect foul play, but the longer you spend the more likely the police will find you at the scene still editing away

But that was what I was goingto do. Just wanted to make sure. If I wanted to spend a little extra time I would just make a few more rolls?

yeah, you didnt have enough time to put the distance in, and besides, the further you hide, the further you've got to run back to pick your bike up again.
I've got you about 200m away from the restaurant, on the other side of the street in a darkened alleyway about 50m away from your bike.
you have a good view up and down the road for any police approaching

yep, every roll is one complex action, you get three complex actions per pass in standard hot sim so can knock out 3 seconds of video per 3 seconds of meatspace time. it *should* take about 30 seconds meatspace time providing no crit glitches, a crit glitch would double your time taken to 1 minute, then 1.30, 2 minutes etc for each crit glitch

@lumen, please RP the call to johnny, i need to know what you need to know so i can figure out what to roll :-)
@raiden, review the file you copied IC. maybe data search mr Xeng, ask around, find out who he's connected to.
can't make any promises that it'll be useful for your infil on gridguide but might be good paydata for the right person if nothing else
