Character descriptions, Asking for help 

Can someone please just ask me specific questions about how the huskybot platforms look? Anything you're curious about, or think should be detailed. Apparently my brain only works when it has details to focus on.

Character descriptions, Asking for help 

@kelseyhusky What sorts of communication systems do the various platforms have installed?

re: Character descriptions, Asking for help 

@mawr IO thought I described this earlier, but I guess not!

The pack has lots of ways of exchanging data and communicating: Speaking (vibrating air through membranes for tone and shaping phonemes through mouth, tongue and teeth position.) Playing sounds over speakers (close to speaking, but the mechanics are different), holographic projections for pictograph/hieroglyphic cultures, and also as an augment for body language cultures (cont)

@mawr (cont) Shifting color on enabled external plates. For distance comms, different EM types are used depending on urgency and security concerns. Normal communication operations are on standard subspace FTL systems. The realtime mesh PackNet uses for KA-33's distributed consciousness relies on WhiteRadio. WR uses spin encoding of three subatomic particles called impious chronons: eclectic, reverse entropic, and pan-neurotic. (cont)

@mawr (cont) PackNet is secured by both passphrase and a shared 2048-byte encryption cipher. A dedicated 4096-byte key is used for all secure signals between KA and mAI.

In interesting feature of WR is that the longer distance the signal has to go, the shorter the communications lag. 1 LY gives you a 2 second delay, 5 LY has only a 1.25 second delay.
