Technology and Computers
[[compendium:skill:Computers]] have tiers and countermeasures; hacking uses the [[compendium:skill:Computers]] skill. Augmentations are body-integrated permanent items.
In the Starfinder setting, technology is ubiquitous. Computers are rated by tier (1–10), with higher tiers granting greater bonuses and countermeasures. Hacking uses the Computers skill against the computer's tier-based DC.
Basic actions: Access (retrieve files), Disable Module (shut down a subsystem), Manipulate Module (alter data or settings).
Countermeasures: Firewalls add to hack DCs. Traps trigger on failed intrusion attempts — ranging from alarms to lethal biometric locks.
Modules: Computers can run modules that grant bonuses to ship sensors, automate doors, or control weapons. Characters proficient in Computers can build and upgrade tiers of computers from components.
Augmentations (cybernetic, biotech, and nanotech) integrate directly into a character's body and function like permanent items.
