How do i change what a friendly man hack does so i can stop it from attacking everything?
I am afraid you cant.
It is manhack. It hacks man.
And beast.
And everything else.
Forever.
well crap. i was going to keep it as a guard or attack drone.
Unlike NPCs, friendly manhacks (and blobs) will brutally murder everything in sight. Maybe in later versions they’ll be “programmable” if you have high enough computer skill or something, and you’ll be capable of telling them to do certain things. Until then, they’re only useful if you need someone to help you kill a bunch of things in the immediate vicinity, which is a bit sad.
There’s a dog whistle, for keeping some semblance of control over a dog. Perhaps do something similar for manhacks, but have it be a remote control?
