Computers and Programs

[Delthrien]

When buying a program for a computer, what level of detail (or how much info) is necessary when defining the program? Also, how much info can be included in a single program?

I ask only because some tasks would seem to be more detailed than others yet the cost remains constant regardless of the difficulty. For instance, "Pilot starship from System X to System Y" would be a bit more complex than "Drive ground vehicle from Address A to Address B."

I don't know abotu FRED, but 4e says this:

Programs Cost 1 Point

Program: Move from Point A to Point B would require the following:

Transport FAM (Vehical/Ship), Combat Driving/Piloting, Navigation

So that would be 1 Point for the Program, 1 Point for the TF, 3 Points for Combat Driving/Piloting, and 3 Points for Navigations, coming to 8 Points Total


As I said, this is 4e, not FRED
