Title: Disinfect Missions
Post by: Moen Co. on August 01, 2008, 09:21:13 PM
Has anyone here cared to notice whether disinfect missions for viruses appear only on servers belonging to the faction that's being infected?

i.e. If I plant a virus on an Icarus server and it happens to have a mission placed against it, will the mission only appear on Icarus servers?

This should probably be the case, but you never know.  I'll be paying attention from now on to this detail, but if anyone knows in advance it'd be much appreciated.

Each corporation is rival of the other...

For example ; COKE wouldn't pay to disinfect PEPSI...

But COKE would pay to damage PEPSI by deleting it's files...

Any Icarus server can have a disinfect for any other icarus server and so on.

My question wasn't whether they're supposed to (of course they are), it was whether this detail was implemented yet and whether anyone has actually cared to pay attention rather than mindlessly accept and perform disinfects (which I, embarrassingly, have been doing).

First, public server and secret servers have separate networks.

- A disinfect mission will spawn in the corporation network.
- A delete file mission will always have as target another rival corporation file.
- an anti-hacker mission will spawn in the corporation network.

The corporation network = the servers belonging to the same corporation. (Public / Secret are separate networks)
