Say that it's not a magical hack-all device? Why should I have to? Why do you automatically assume I created the Oracle so I could screw people over without them being able to do anything about it? Writing out every single thing I can and can't do looks unattractive. I much prefer to write things out and let people figure things out from the context of what I write. Creating a list of things it can and can't do just looks boring.

~It has all the limitations and advantages a device should have. It can't interact with something that isn't accepting data. It can't interact with something not connected to a network. It can't override manually installed safety features. It can't instantly take control of all the systems on a ship it's never hacked before. So on and so forth.

You make a good point. However, this was never meant to be some magical hack all device. If a system is not hooked into the network, she can't touch it. About the ships being hack proof, that's not the case. What do you think happens when you open communications with another ship? You're sending and receiving data. A data stream that can be piggy backed on if you have the right equipment.

Hacking in to communcastion is not the same as hacking a ship. And yes it is problem. Why do think both flag and flashing lights is still praticed and used to this day. Radio silence is still a thing.


I have nothing wrong with your orcal sytem getting in on the comuncastion sytem. You can jam, send false info, listen in and track the locastion of ships.

You can all so use orcal as some kind of minni super commutor. So that say you where able to get some kind of devise in to a enemy mainfram (this will need to physcaly be done) the orcal could brute force it's way in.

Stuff like that.

because its the reason that the techboards exists is so that we have details of what it can and can not do. You can keep it simple as I said in one of my other post just give us an overview of what it dose, but whatever you chose man. I imagine Jaing will have you expand on it.

Well, unless the communications system is kept completely separate from the rest of the ship, she'll be able to move from one system to another.

~So I'm going with a greek motif for the AI's names. Hint hint.

It does have limtastion. But what is it's purpose.

Why would the commucastion sytem be contected to anything but comms. It has zroe need to pluged in to any thing else and as the only route in for a cyber attack it would be kept physcaly seperate from every thing else.

I doubt SW would be any difrent.
