Bottom post of the previous page:

If you saw it in the rev round, it might have been me. This is how I usually kill AI - bust in from south, deconstrust the reinforced walls, then throw floor tiles at the core, while laughing at the turrets inability to reach me. Dirty, easy, almost fool-proof, unless AI has competent borgs. It never does.

If you're feeling especially cocky, you can wall off the turrets (or use the closet trick) and get close and personal with AI. More satisfying that way.

plow through the walls and beat it to death with whatever you have on hand

EASY METHOD TO KILL ANY ROGUE AI
Things you'll need:
- A space suit or hardsuit
- A disposal pipe dispenser or rapid pipe dispenser
- A toolkit; bare minimum is screwdriver, welder, wirecutters, crowbar, wrench
- Some sort of metal foam; backpack firefighter thank is ideal
1. Blow the borgs are you stupid
2. Disassemble this wall 3. Place a trunk facing west and secure it
4. Place a disposal chute on top of the trunk and secure it
5. Get your metal foam ready
6. If you put a bin, wait for it to pressurize - if not, then jump through
7. You'll be in the AI chamber. Spray metal foam all around so the turrets can't shoot you
8. Wait for the foam to harden
9. Weld through the AI core wall
10. Laugh as you wreck the AI while it has no way to fight back

9 out of 10 s say:

Xhuis you play atmos tech a lot don't you.

As chemist shit out thermite, replace blood with a combination of leporazine, styptic powder, and silver sulfadiazine. Fill your internals from cryo. Get a lighter from the bar, go to the walls Xhuis wants you to RPD through, and burn through both reinforced walls. From the outside, throw a bottle of thermite at the last wall blocking the AI from you then follow up by throwing your lighter to burn through that one.

I hope at some point you then acquired floor tiles to throw at the AI - if not, you can cook a metalfoam grenade as you run in (you made one of these right?), dropping it behind you as you stand where the wall used to be and then beat the AI to death with your internals.

As most service jobs - hope the botanist spent the round getting glowberries, get uranium from them, tear a wall down and get iron from that, now you have an emp which can help when the useful jobs actually get onto the sat or if you see any borgs.

Miner - get some gibonite, get a laser pointer, hope the chucklefucks in cargo let you print out an RPD and tools, go to the same walls again, decon one and throw the gibonite next to the AI's face.

Scientist - print ripley with a mounted RCD, laugh

Anyone with easy access to a hardsuit shouldn't have too much trouble killing a rogue AI, especially if they have some way of taking out borgs as well.

EZ

Does this actually work?

Yup, even works if the APC's been emagged. Takes about 1-2 minutes for the APC menu to open and let them turn it back on, though if they're not careful and accidentally close the window; they're fucked.

Although if they have their APC window open they can turn it back on instantly.

If the new AI catches the rogue one by surprise, the attacking AI can flip the target AI's power on for a split second to reset the hacking timer, in which case the target AI cannot do anything unless it is SANIC FAST CLICKER in the split second of sight. It is an exploit, and obviously powergaming, so do not actually do it.

Holy mother of necro, but I was messing around on a test server, and I found quite possibly the easiest way so far to kill a rogue AI (at least on Boxstation).

All you need is...
One potassium/water grenade, 100u. (Get this from Chemistry, and use two large beakers.)
One spacesuit. (Not technically necessary, but get this from wherever you like.)
One laser or energy gun, or a stack of floor tiles. (These are to kill the AI. If you just want to breach the core, bring metal foam instead.)

You know the maintenance behind the satellite with the SMES? Get inside there. Either destroy a window on the walkway and hack in, or just smash inside.
From there, take the blue toolbox, then throw the potassium/water grenade on top of the cyborg recharger. The blast will destroy the adjacent reinforced wall, allowing you to move there. (It'll also open a small breach to space, which is why you want the suit.) You're now directly behind the AI core SMES. Deconstruct it using the toolbox (screwdriver, crowbar, wirecutters, wrench, screwdriver) and shoot the AI, who is now directly in front of you. Its turrets can't hurt you here.

TL;DR http://i.imgur.com/H4M8IjV.png Follow these instructions. The AI is now dead. (Now follow the pinpointer to see if it shunted.)

AI sat layout is now different on box, RIP best AI sat.

1. disable all the ai's shit
2. disassemble the southern walls to its core, disassembling electrics as you go (optional)
3. use the bits of metal and stuff you have to assemble a barrier
4. kill that fukkn ai

ai hard nerf ai

Use an emag you pried out of a traitor's cold dead hands (probably the reason the AI is now 'rogue') on a borg, order the borg to kill the AI. Simples.

Good if it's jsut a regular subverted AI. Traitor AI borgs, on the other hand, are immune to emags now a*nd* the AI is informed which of their borgs successfully resisted subversion so you'd be telling the AI exactly where you are and that you have an emag. You'd have to de-sync it first.

• To de-sync a borg without remotely locking it down via the robotics console, do the following:-
• Flash/Ion it to disable it.
• Unlock and pry open the cover.
• Keep flashing/ioning it because it can still move even if it hasn't fully re-booted yet.
• Remove the power cell.
• Screwdriver to expose the wires.
• Pulse the wires to find out what does what.
• One of the wires is the AI sync, pulsing it will make the AI link light flash on and off (or switch to another AI if applicable).
• Cut the AI link wire to de-sync it, this also disables it's Law Sync.
• As it's considered an independent borg, it should be emaggable now though you could just use Law 1 to make it go kill the AI.

EVA suit, two(or three if you're lazy) C4 and a toolbelt to kill the AI on the newly redesigned Box satellite.

Wait for the AI to free singuloth, cuck as he shows his wrath by bombing straight for the AI satellite.

First off, what if the AI has made a hull breach at its core? I had this problem last time I tried: the second SMES was immediately sucked in, and as far as I know you can't shoot through half-built machines.

Second, how many shots will it take to kill an AI with a laser?

you just reminded me how to always win as ai against a crew with no bombs/BoH
1. have borg rcd holes in floor around core
2.get anti breach field gen
3. put field gen next to the core in the hole
4. gg

You can place floor tiles over breach shields.
