Any specs on what "Core relavence 37%
" might mean

I'm reading it as implying that a particular action is going to take place, and that as of the current situation, 37% of the core prerequisites to initiate said action have been met--in other words, the current state of affairs is 37% relevant to event protocols. Presumably once the situation progresses to 100% relevance to this course of action, whatever system is displaying these messages will initiate this particular action.

To explain: it seems like a programmed tactical system; for instance, you have been placed in a castle, given a big red button and are told to press it when, for instance, your castle is under attack and will (without reasonable doubt) be breached and raided. Now, you cannot predict when your enemy will move; you have to wait for them. Likewise you can't say that just because they are attacking the walls, the situation is beyond repair. But once they batter the front doors down and have nearly brute-forced the defenders out of the way without commensurate losses, the situation has become impossible to salvage and the button must be pressed. If you gave the shiny red button to a simple AI, each of these interstitial events would have a percentage value assigned to it. Attacking the walls might be worth 20%, a small breach 30%, etc, until the situation as a whole met all the prerequisites for the button to be pressed. Now consider that there are multiple buttons, with different outcomes requiring the pressing of different buttons. The percentages of the situation would likely be split amongst multiple buttons, barring a "perfect" series of events; therefore, you would describe the situation as regarded each button with a percentage of relevance-IE, core relevance for __________ outcome is 37%. And given a percentage of 37%, no action is fully warranted by events to date and the response is negative until the next check, so system control is diverted to other tasks.

But that's just speculation, I tend to be long-winded at night.

While Phyltre's explanation is excellent, I figured that it was an intruder looking to bring something online, and was in the process of doing so, when the defense system or something kicked in and stopped it.

Perhaps, the core, which is possibly part of a module, is hemorrhaging ...

There is some speculation that, upon the completion of this hemorrhaging, the medium will become tangible, maybe even fully conscious. One never knows.

I see it as this:

/system override/ <--a system override is in progress. Something is trying to override what is already there
Core Relevance 37% and Rising. <--It's 37% overridden and increasing

/negative - system control diverted <-- whatever is still here is not letting this override happen yet

Perhaps a more simpleton interpretation, but there ya go. Phyltre, that's some nice spec.

Meh, Ranger D beat me to the punch. Great minds think alike! :p
