You can always GI/GO the Reboot action. For example it could be changed to Send message: "Piss off or be geeked."
I like
EDIT: When you are jumped in, the device icon and your persona icon are merged. That means that the device will become a persona and that means you cannot use matrix action Reboot Device on it (unless it is your persona).
That also means you can link-lock owner when he is jumped in.
good find.
i am inclined to agree.
Now the question is: If you have multiple devices and RCC, will you be able to jump between the devices or will you be locked in one?
you can always jump out of a drone and then jump into another drone.
if you have a rcc you can jump between your drones without first jumping out.
I think the special features of the RCC lets you switch between drones only without having to reboot, or I think it might be allowable if the devices are able to accept a persona if its been modified as such.
you normally jump out of the drone (not the matrix!) and then jump into another drone (two actions).
with rcc you can jump from one drone to another directly (one action).
I'd just like to point out that a rigger getting an OS score can be very bad. Convergence is not kind to drone networks.
it will hit your persona and your rcc.
i dont see why it would be bad for your drones slaved to your rcc (or your smartgun or your shoulder camera or your....)
If you are marked when jumped in vehicle A, will there be marks on vehicle A when you jump into vehicle B?
No.
If the decker mark your persona the decker will not have marks on your device A nor device B.
if the rigger jump into device A then device A will vanish from the matrix/merge with rigger persona
decker will still have mark on the persona.
if the decker attack the merged persona/vehicle A then the rigger RCC will "soak" the damage.
decker will not have mark on B.
If rigger jump out of vehicle A then vehicle A will regain its own deice icon.
decker will still have mark on the rigger persona.
no mark on vehicle A nor vehicle B.
If enemy decker uses data spike with biofeedback while you are jumped in vehicle A, what combination of damage will occur?
If a decker hit your persona (currently jumped into vehicle A) with a data spike then your RCC will "soak" the damage. If decker use data spike while running biofeedback cyberprogram then the actual rigger will be hit by an equal amount of stun or physical (if in hot-sim) biofeedback damage.
vehicle A does not take any damage at all while the rigger is jumped in.
rigger can also choose to not first form a persona on his rcc and instead jump into the vehicle directly (the sim-module is located in the control rig, not the rcc...) - in this case the rigger use matrix attributes provided by the vehicle and any matrix damage taken will be "soaked" by the vehicle (not the rigger's control rig).
Enemy decker cannot use (Control Device|Format Device|Reboot Device|Spoof Command|GI/GO) on the vehicle you are jumped in, because it appears as persona now.
Correct.
Enemy technomancer can use Puppeteer on you while you are jumped in vehicle
puppeteer = a matrix version of the spell control action
Control Device to steer you into a wall?
sure.
Format Device
no, rigger does not have a sleaze attribute to format a device. not even his own.
Reboot Device: It will reboot your RCC and/or your vehicle?
sure, you can puppeteer him to reboot his persona/rcc
you cannot puppeteer him to reboot the vehicle since it does not have a matrix icon atm.
Jack out: Will dump you from the Matrix and reboot your RCC and/or your vehicle?
dumpshock the rigger and reboot his rcc.
the vehicle will still be in the matrix but unoccupied.
GI/GO so you fill speed up instead of break?
no, rigger does not have a sleaze attribute to use garbage in / garbage out
When you are link-locked while jumped in vehicle A, you are able to jump into vehicle B. After you jump into vehicle B you are able to reboot vehicle A.
you cannot shift between cold-sim, hot-sim, ar, jump out of the matrix, jump out of the drone or jump into another drone as long as you are link locked. while you are link locked you are stuck in vehicle A and cannot jump to vehicle B.
