| ===== Reboot timer ===== | ===== Reboot timer ===== |

| When a device is rebooting, it will start out with a reboot timer indicated by a yellow triangle that appears over it in [[:Incognita#Incognita view]] with a number on it. This number decrements at the beginning of the [[:corporation]]'s turn (with the exception of [[:guards#drones]] and guards with [[:firewalls]], whose reboot timer decrements at the beginning of the agency's turn). Once it hits 0, the device will become active again. Note that [[:items:EMP Packs]] detonate after devices have their reboot timers lowered at the beginning of the [[:corporation]]'s turn, so their counter will not immediately decrement after being hit by the EMP blast. (It also means that devices such as [[:mainframe_devices:Security Cameras]] and [[:mainframe_devices:Emitters]] with a reboot timer of 1 will briefly turn on before getting hit by the [[:items:EMP Pack]]). | The reboot timer decrements at the beginning of the [[:corporation]]'s turn (with the exception of [[:guards#drones]] and guards with [[:firewalls]], whose reboot timer decrements at the beginning of the agency's turn).

| Certain scripted events, the [[:daemons:Echo]] daemon, the [[:daemons:Failsafe]] daemon, and [[:guards]] with the [[:guards:Modded#Hacker]] ability can cause agency-[[:firewalls|hacked]] devices to be recaptured. When this happens, they are returned to the control of the [[:corporation]] and gain 1 [[:firewall]]. They will always reboot for 1 turn when this happens. Certain [[:Mainframe Devices]] cannot be recaptured. | Certain scripted events, the [[:daemons:Echo]] daemon, the [[:daemons:Failsafe]] daemon, and [[:guards]] with the [[:guards:Modded#Hacker]] ability can cause agency-[[:firewalls|hacked]] devices to be recaptured.
