Another question - if you haven't bene able to dump the code running on the Network and Mystery chips, how do you know they're AVR ?



You know what the app CPU runs, and the other 2 processors have identical pinouts on the board.


In case you haven't seen previous discussion around Starfighters: this document is fiction, describing a scenario that was invented for a game based on software reverse engineering, to be launched shortly. But one possible in-universe explanation would simply be that the three chips had the same part number.


I do understand that -- I was asking for the in-universe explanation :)


One images they observed the part number while attaching the bus sniffer.
