			*A program carrier may be added to a drone via an odd mod per the normal rules. Instead of a common or hacking program, this autosoft can load a single autosoft that the drone is capable of using. This autosoft may be used in addition to the autosoft slots granted by the pilot program.
			**The autosoft cost is not covered by the cost of the program carrier and must be paid for separately.

	*The Virtual Machine program does not increase the number of autosofts that an RCC can run. The RCC can run any common or hacking program, though many of them will not be useful. The sole exception is that they cannot run programs that alter an attribute they do not possess already. This means they cannot run, for example, Smoke and Mirrors to gain a Sleaze score unless they somehow already have one.		*The Virtual Machine program does not increase the number of autosofts that an RCC can run.
