The order of contamination in machines depends on where the disease vector landed. Additionally, in machines, it can spread to more than one location, depending on the number of vectors. Contamination happens in a Radial manner, starting at the landing site and increasing in all directions of the machine.
Deleting files and records - if landing near memory
In case of landing on androids:
- They will forget who their owners/companions are and forget about events that occurred, as well as lose part of their database.
In case of landing on machines:
- Will lose files such as recordings, logbook, information, and crew member authorizations/accesses.
Machine slowdown - if landing on movement parts, such as turbines, wheels, conveyor belts, etc.
In case of landing on androids:
- Movement will become slower and sometimes confused, like a stuck shopping cart wheel.
In case of landing on machines:
- Movement will become slower and sometimes fail, including brakes.
Increased Fuel/energy consumption - if landing on tanks or batteries
In case of landing on androids:
- The android will feel "tired" needing to charge and/or will increase energy consumption.
In case of landing on machines:
- The fuel used will be consumed in greater amounts.
Direction changes - if landing on screens/optical sensors/analog and digital compasses
In case of landing on androids:
- They will get lost inside their own ship, their memory maps will become confused and have missing information.
In case of landing on machines:
