Hacknet Security Terminal

[Neallys]

So I was thinking, shouldn't the HACKNET terminal be -kind of- far away from the zone? Was OP fighting last night as Hacknet fighter and, well, I tried my best to cover many of the possible entrances my enemy could come from, without success.

So I'm thinking either move the Terminal to a more suitable spot or make it so there is some kind of loading process to go through when clicking it, or kill a NPC that servers as security and which can only be damaged once the 3rd layer went down.


(The first solution seems the easier to do, as it doesn't require a lot of coding process + it doesn't make everyone to be a HN char to be able to do the 4th layer)

Kind of funny...

The purehacker who was defending (Regant Fortress?!) opens a thread and the guy finally activating the outpost despite the purehacker signs his argument first ;-)

I also think that this makes kind of sense. You can't be on both sides of the sync. So there is always one way to get to the security terminal.
Otherwise it is just totally unlogical that PSI shields work in hacknet. Maybe we should fix things like that first.

I have to say that I'm not waiting in front of the term like an idiot, I try to cover as much ground as possible, checking where my enemy would come from, but there are so many possible zones I can't do it (well I had a slow setup so I could even get outrunned, that was wrong). PPU shields inside isn't a problem anymore, can be easily stopped with the runspeed cap. More damage with HN spells would be great though, because of the zone and resistance of your enemy, if you meet another full HN char it's just not a fight you can't finish.
