Hack Dart

Hack Darts are the ammunition used for the Hack Tool, and Mini-Turrets are also deployed using it. There are two kinds of darts:

Remote Hack Darts Damage: No damage; hacks machines at a distance. Once the dart makes contact with a machine, the Hack Game will begin.

“	Hack Darts are the basic ammo for the Hack Tool and Allow you to hack machines at a distance. Firing one at an unhacked machine will begin the Hacking Game. If you succeed, the machine will become Hacked. Misfired Hack Darts can be recovered from walls and other objects.	”

Automatic Hack Darts Damage: No damage; Bypasses a machine's defenses to automatically hack a machine with no further work required. Effectiveness: Though hacking success is guaranteed, the downside is that one cannot earn a Bonus Hack when using an Auto-Hack Dart. Recommended against Security Devices in the heat of battle. Also good to use on door controls, seeing as there is no bonus to be obtained.
