alright!

I appreciate everyone's help on this.

I now have another question which I think I know what the answer might be, but I want to double check.

Set scene:
business sabotage hacks.

I just finished coding Decrypt V6 and notice it in my admin nodes

wiki says
Hacking Wiki wrote:...Can be used to decrypt individual files or entire systems if used in the Admin node
BUTTOCKS

Does decrypting the system from amin nodes = pacify / virus it in terms of completing the sabotage?

Or must I decryp and use pacify/virus to get the hack exp if I decide to dl business hack files?


Thanks!

The decrypt doesn't pacify. But all encrypted files throughout the system will be decrypted when you use that script in the admin node.

Using pacify gives your hacker move moves when it's successful but doesn't decrypt anything, which is why using both in admin node is helpful.

Virus also must be run independently but I can't tell you how it works, Alex has never used it.

I thought so, but I'm glad I double-checked. Thank you, Ally.
