X Rebirth Albion Rendezvous mission

Post by mcsquared » Fri, 11. Nov 16, 20:50

Have arrived in Distress Reek and moved to less than 5km with the Skunk.
I then enter the Trojan ROV and attempted to fly to 50m of the hack location.
However, the hack location appears to be in the middle of a round structure so that I cannot get any closer than 98m. Any help anyone can give me would be very appreciated.

Sometimes you have to worm your way inside stations through entrances that are further away.

98 m should be enough, though. You can hack as long as you're within 100m.
Humans are deuterostomes, which means that when they develop in the womb the first opening they develop is the anus.
This means that at one point you were nothing but an asshole.

Some people never develop beyond this stage.

Yes 98m is close enough and the hacking point animates at 100m proximity.

Just in case you weren't aware, the Trojan doesn't do a passive hack as with the Beholder scanning; you have to initiate the hacking minigame with a left mouse click (or two) on the hacking point when you are in-range.

Also you have to stay within 100m throughout the hack.

Managed to get to 14m from the hack point. Used the mouse to bring up a "HacK" notification from cllicking on the hack point. However, I stayed there about 10 minutes and never got the word the hack was complete. About how long should I have to do this?

Once you get the "Hack" option up, you need to actually select it - ie. click on "Hack". You'll then get a minigame much like what you do with smalltalk, only considerably faster (and thus, actually quite tricky), in order to actually perform the hack...

A double left-click on the hacking icon when in range initiates the minigame too.
