At least Marco didn't shut down cryo pods to preserve energy like the AI in Mass Effect did. That's a plus.

Yes, I know, the cryo pods/tubes have independent energy, probably an Energizer bunny on a treadmill considering how long they've been going and going...

Well, I'll just sit on the bridge. I wonder if Jenifer can play mental chess...

In reply to Troy Patterson (msg # 23):

Someone has rewritten Marco's code, which would take even an expert several days. Perhaps we will get a week or so to disentangle him.

Yeah but if he restarts, doesnt he restart all the issues too? Not a computer wiz here, just thinking aloud...

Depends. I guess we could restore him from a backup? But then he wouldn't know what had happened.

me ( and shadow ) think if you shut it down hot... then when it comes back on you lost everything  that was on , at that point, but should have camera footage..messagaes  and such saved, from before it was messed  with..i know its over simple?..but..well..that's kray's  idea..doesn't eman it'll work!

Since the parts that were messed with were mostly the AI's access to parts of the ship, the history, the camera footage, the pod access and the personel files, one can safely assume that at start-up the AI doesn't give too much issues.
After all, the reactor was meant to power the ship, not the AI. The AI going offline was an effect of everything going offline. The AI is hooked into the flight, reactor and enginesystems, it does not control them outright.

So am I :D

On another note, I'll be assuming Cornell, since he is with you guys ain engineering and has stated he will guide you through it, is doing just that... So the process of changing batteries is in full swing.
However, he will have told you not, under any cicumstances, to unhook all batteries at once. It might be faster sure... It will be faster, as you will not get a chance to put new ones in if you unlatch them all. The reactor will blow.

I'm taking this liberty for the sake of keeping things rolling, and Stephen has told me he has days he cannot post as much...

Stephen, if I beat you to a post right now, sorry...

Nah, it's okay. I certainly understand keeping the ball rolling. I'm about to go post.

I was just reminded of an old show. Granted, we haven't discovered a humanoid race evolved from cats. Yet.

Never played Traveller RPG, but loosely familiar with it.

My brother had the original Marvel RPG, his friends let me play to have enough people and I suspect mom bribed them.

After that it was almost purely fantasy based games until around 2000 or 2001.
