You can mega rob 1 exp. and -100 alignment. it's a bug that's been mainstreamed. The port authorities still bust you.

Well, it may have been a bug when released, but is now part of the game strategy so not really a bug anymore as a function of the game. Since V1 will not be updated it will forever remain a part of the game. I guess this can be said of all "bugs" that are part of the strategy.

I do have a question though. If I am at 4.5 mil exp, with standard rob multiplier, would I be able to steal the max amount if it was avaliable on the port?

That's what I was saying...

I edited my test game so that I had absurdly high experience and I didn't NEED MegaRob.

According to General editor H, the bug is being EMULATED in the new releases. I don't know about v1, though...

I think you are confused. If you enable the bug, you don't need experience. If the bug is disabled, experience affects how much to can steal, not the bust rate.

In other words, increasing your experience to around 7K will allow you to steal full holds. Anything above that is a waste.

Sorry, you are correct. You can still bust though...

I noticed that when I edited my player to 1,000,000 experience, it would actually "neutralize" MegaRob.

What I mean is that when I MegaRobbed at zero experience, I would "fake" bust if I strayed ONE credit outside of the min/max (I tested both ends, and the General Editor H is INcorrect about the max.)

When I changed my experience to 1,000,000 I didn't "fake" bust by Robbing outside of the min/max. I merely busted according to the normal chance for normal robbing.

So does that mean there's a bug in the bug? :lol:
