I would like to reiterate the thanks already extended. I always thought Data Mining was more what the Matrix should be about, at least in peace time, than all this assassination and combat. SMILEY

now if only the servers were open...

Good update! Congratulations and Thanks Dracomet and the rest of the team.

Not seeing these new taps anywhere. Are we supposed to get them from farming the loot tables or something?

And yeah, my missions are still bugged. I have Tyndall, and well, that's it. I am not going to go through 10 Tyndall and 10-ish Gray missions for 0 $info just to get my character back to normal. Guess I'm stuck not doing a critical mission on Vector ever again.

They are probably pretty rare, or require you to be at a certain level or have a certain new item. Just guessing, though.

Even though it'll be awhile before I can use some of this, it looks good to see a little more end-game stuff.

The new data taps are available from level appropriate enemies that normally drop tools. Except for the "rare" ones which are not drops.

These rare, or so called "craftable only taps" according to the hotfix notes, I can't craft them, being a level 50 tool maker and all.

Is there a paticular gang that drops the tools?

What is the one thing we would do a lot of that dropped these kind of items... Missions. SMILEY

**Procurator**

Trying that. No luck so far. SMILEY

Figures. Just when I want them to drop tools...

**MotorZ**

Oh, I think they missed something in the patch notes. Hyper-sprint now drains IS correctly.

**Aquatium.**

We've got one, and coding it.

This is awesome devs! you can loot subrouintes from the higher nodes! As well as more information.

Who or what was killed to get that tap? SMILEY

I found one doing missions, searching a file cabinet. Unfortunately, I failed at decompiling it :/ I suggest downtown for the number of rooms in the big buildings. More places to search.
