Will we be able to manipulate the environment of contested zones like turn on and off gravity, life support, stuff like that?turrets, doors,

Not right now from the get-go right? It's something that can become more interesting once resource network hits. So yeah, not initially. Though that said, we have doors with keycards and fuses. So there's some elements where you can already manipulate but I guess what players might have more in mind with these systems that you can manipulate like power resources and all these things. We'd really love to implement them once we have the systems available to us.

JH:Now you said something there and I want to make sure that we get some clarity on that. At this moment, the moment that we're recording, what day is this? Friday. What's the date? As of Friday, August 16th resource network is scheduled for release in 4.0. These things are scheduled for release in 4.0. When Manuel says when that stuff is in, when that stuff is ready, he means when it's up and running and functional for him to utilize it in the design of this experience. Because these experiences are being developed concurrently. We can't have them sitting around waiting, we can't have asteroid bases sitting around waiting for work on resource network to come along. So the first version will use little pieces of it, like you said, the keycards and the fuses and stuff like that, but as things progress, 4.0, whatever, 4.0, whatever, whatever after that, then as the feature hardens and gets more developed and stuff, we'll be able to utilize more and more aspects of that. You've already seen if you watched ISC yesterday, some of the locations teams are already using aspects of the resource networking system for their charge and drain stuff and for the different homesteads and habitats and stuff like that. So it's just a question of do we want to wait or do we want to put out a first version that can do all of these other things and then add that later? And that's what he's talking about here.
