Data tower
Data towers are interactive objects located in Settlements, and can be interacted with using an SRV's Data Link Scanner. They are similar to, but seperate from, Data points; compared to a Data Point, Data Towers have a larger rotating 'tower' made up of several segments, with a toroidal 'hub' beneath it, all connected to a small base station.
Scanning a Data Tower with the Data Link Scanner can generate Encoded Materials, Data Point Intel Packages, and sometimes change various Settlement functions, depending on the type of Tower. They can be Private or Public.
Data Tower types include;
- Skimmer Control Override: Hacking one of these towers will shut down all active Skimmers at the site and prevent more from spawning.
- Turret Security Terminal: Disables turrets?[Needs verification]
- Hub Operations Terminal: Usually public; hacking one of these mostly generates Intel Packages and Encoded Materials.
