Not sure if I understand you completely... A runnner can carry more
skillsofts than they currently have jacks for. It just needs to be
decided before the run whichs ones are "active". Another way would be
to allow it either before a challenge is exposed, or in that "natural
pause" after a challenge is exposed and combat/sleazing begins. The
first of those makes chips A LOT more versatile, almost to the point
of being broken. The second option would definately make chips/jacks
broken IMHO.
