Jamming/Rigging drones and robots
Can't find it in the rules, how it is accomplished etc. Been browsing through the whole core rulebook and detailing through the Mesh section and nothing. Anyone point me in the right direction?
"And yet, across the gulf of space, minds immeasurably superior to ours regarded this Earth with envious eyes. And slowly, and surely, they drew their plans against us."

Just normal hacking rules, as far as I know. If you want to jam one them you hack it. If you want to rig one you hack it. Having the password or access code or whatever lets you buypass that. EDIT: Oops, ninja'd by Geonis. Story of my life.

IIRC, if you want to be a dedicated jammer/rigger, you'll need to invest heavily in piloting skills unless you are fork-jamming in vehicle cyberbrains...

Yeah, pretty much. You'll either go flight/fray/freefall/freerunning/swimming as a jammer, or get various piloting skills as a teleoperator.
