Dispatched by the server to control the progress of hacking. While "hacking" is typically performed against enemy targets, some actions that involve ally on ally hacking can occur. In this sense, hacking can be consider change progress.
In general, the act of hacking is maintained by the server but the conclusion is managed by the client. Hacking typically locks the player into a cancellable firing animation and works as all-or-nothing. The progress bar window is displayed and updated each tick by the server; but, the client can cancel it on its own. When hacking is complete as indicated by the appropriate
HackState, the client performs the intended action upon the target. Facility amenities will temporarily ignore IFF requirements; vehicles will permanently transfer control over to the hack-starter's empire; facility turret weapons will temporarily convert to their anti-vehicle or anti-aircraft configurations; facilities will be compromised and begin the long process of converting to the hack-starter's empire; and, so forth.As mentioned, one of the unexpected uses of this message will assist the conversion of allied facility turreted weapons to their upgraded armaments.
