 To use a hacking block, simply build one on the grid that you wish to claim control of and click "Begin Hacking" in the K menu of the hacking block. Hacking starts a timer, at the conclusion of which, the grid in question will be transferred to the hacking block owner. Hacking is considered a hostile action, so all rules around combat apply to use of these blocks and any rulebreaks will be treated the same as if you had destroyed the grid. Both Firewall and Hacking blocks must also be accessible on foot without needing to grind any blocks other than doors. To use a hacking block, simply build one on the grid that you wish to claim control of and click "Begin Hacking" in the K menu of the hacking block.

   * Whenever too many friendly or neutral T4s or T5s are within 10km of each other, they will become "masslocked". Grids max speed, and maximum active gyroscopes will decrease the more non-hostile grids gather around each other. This is to try to help ship tier balance during combat between single large factions and coalitions of smaller factions   * Whenever too many friendly or neutral T4s or T5s are within 10km of each other, they will become "masslocked".
