Do you think that whatever it was when it attempted to replicate within Sam, it caused him to go into that frenzied state??

@Ignacious

That could have something to do with it. Did you notice anything about Sam’s code during that battle?

Myriad Reality

It sounds like it makes sure that it is stuck there, like a revive point.

@Ignacious

Although it didn’t restore Sam’s old, crazed state. The program looks like it crashed when you fixed him.

I could recover fragments before. Far from complete, probably farther from complete than it isn't.

@GalaxyRaider

Maybe between the two we could find some semblance of a source. Anything else in there?

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Webmaster>

Bits and pieces. Is 02's incomplete as well?

@GalaxyRaider

It’s the full program, but it’s compiled. Debugging symbols help a lot, but it would take some effort to reconstruct the original.

That's what I'm inferring. I can give you what I copied. The stuff I read about before helping Rhythm out was just called "Purge01". Unless you think tacking the underscore-zero-two at the end means something else?

@GalaxyRaider

It sounds like makeshift version control to me. Do you have a copy of the source code so we can compare them?

Myriad Reality

The results of it were the thing I was able to find the least info on. So much of it was wiped, I really wish I knew.

@GalaxyRaider

What kinds of details do you have? You said this is the second iteration?

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Webmaster>

Well, if the design intention is to act as a restorative and-or protective function, it would make sense if it was designed to try and see what it is trying to restore or protect, you know?

@GalaxyRaider

Did the tests reflect that it actually accomplished that protection or restoration?

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Webmaster>

Sounds like I did make it farther than you all did then. From what you described, and what I skimmed, a lot of the same information but with less of the holes filled in.

@GalaxyRaider

What's the purpose of the environment detection?

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Webmaster>

I found records talking about exactly this line of work. The previous iteration, based on the name. "Purge01".

@GalaxyRaider

Really? What did they have in them?

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Webmaster>

Just based off that alone, I wouldn't worry about it.

@GalaxyRaider

Did you find any records during your search that looked like they could be talking about this kind of work?
