Wait, do you mean you have to maintain 100 control on a victim for 5 days for it to take effect or do you just have to wait 5 days for it to work, or is there any more extra requirement. Now you are talking about it, I think i might just not be fulfilling all the requirement for it to work I guess.
No, the target has to build a tally of 100, each night adding the current control to the tally.
For example,
A target has a Control total of 99 when Drone is applied. Drone is an advanced reprogramming. All advanced mindcrafts consume 80 control upon application. The target now has 19 Control remaining.
Night 1: tally becomes 19.
Night 2: tally becomes 38.
Day 3: Target is subjected to the Command: Give me Money that consumes 10 Control. Remaining Control is now 9.
Night 3: tally becomes 47.
Night 4: tally becomes 56.
Night 5: tally becomes 65.
Night 6: tally becomes 74.
Night 7: tally becomes 83.
Night 8: tally becomes 92.
Night 9: tally becomes 101.
Day 10: Since the tally is at least 100, the drone effect is now active.
If the Command: Give Me Money wasn't issued, the drone effect would have completed in 6 nights instead of 9.
