You've located a Sterile Compile room. Must be some powerful software being designed here. We'll need to find a compile code. Look for a lab technician, they will be the likely target.

Incognita has IDed that technician there. He's one of the top of his field. He might have info we can use.

Compile Key icon

A physical security feature to help stop network theft. Good thing Neural Disruptors are all physical.

A Compile Key is a single-use item which can be stolen from the Scientist in a Program Compile side-mission. It can be used to access the Research Databank to compile a random program, or sold for 150 credits.

Unlike some other special items, a Compile Key can be kept after the end of the mission, in which case it can be sold to Monst3r or used in another Program Compile side-mission.

A Research Databank.

That's got it. The code has started compiling, let's hope it doesn't take too long to finish.
