==Screen==
==Overview==
*Pause button
Battles in [[Project Neural Cloud]] take place on a grid of 6×5 hexagonal tiles where the player units start on the two leftmost columns while the enemy units start on the rest of the field, generally this is usually where you would normally set your units, however there are certain exceptions to this during battles later on in the game where both allied and enemy units are be placed in different areas starting areas. The areas you can place your units will be highlighted and some tiles are usually obstructed by structures to create paths and pockets, and some [[#Effect Tiles|special tiles]] have an effect on units. Player units are mostly automated; they will seek targets according to the current engagement rules and use their Auto Skill as soon as it is available.
*Damage stats: Can be hidden by tapping on the title.
 
*Leftmost row is for reserve units. Can swap for units on the field but cannot be accessed during fight. However there can be tile effects on this row to give passive buffs to the on-field units.
By default, melee classes (Guard and Warrior) will try to move to the nearest accessible enemy to attack. Units can move through tiles occupied by allies, but an enemy must have a non-occupied tile adjacent to them to be a valid target. If there is no enemy that is directly accessible, melee units will destroy non-permanent structures in their way to the nearest accessible enemy and will stand in place if there are still none present.
*Auto button: all actions during the fight will be decided by the computer.
 
*Speed changer: either 1x or 2x
By default, ranged units (Sniper, Medic and Specialist) will target the nearest enemy and remain at their starting position as long as there is an enemy in range (ranged attacks are not hampered by structures). If there is no enemy in range, they will move forward until there is.
*Protocols: Hover over the icons to display the active effects.
 
*Ultimate Gauge modifier: Usually 1.0 in most stages, but can become higher in resource runs and tutorials.
Default engagement rules can change on case-by-case basis depending on used Skills, active Functions, Statuses such as Snipers targeting the farthest enemy rather than the nearest, or Taunts that force enemy units to focus their attacks on a single target.
*Ultimate Gauge: Fills with blue when performing actions up to 100%, then with orange up to 200%. Is carried between combats.
 
*Ultimate buttons: Tap the portrait of a Doll when it is highlighted to spend 100% of the gauge and use the ultimate. Critically damages Dolls have their portrait become red.
Players can influence a battle by: Using their Tactical Skills which includes teleportation of a unit or forced focus on a specific enemy, deciding when and how to use Ultimate Skills once the gauge is full, and using Active [[PNC Functions|Functions]] if they have one.
*Active Functions: Tap to use.
 
It is possible to double the battle speed if the player feels they won't need to time their actions precisely. When the battle reaches a certain duration or (if present) the timer runs out, Battlefield Overload will start, causing attacks to deal a percentage bonus damage while healing and shields will receive a debuff. Overload effects will keep growing with time to hasten the resolution of the battle.
 
At the end of successful battle, one of the Dolls will be elected the MVP with a title depending on performance such as "Iron Wall" for highest damage absorption, "Savage" for highest damage output, Asclepius for highest healing output, and "Impeccable" for highest overall performance. In story stages, a battle can be attempted again up to 10 times if it is lost.

Tap the portrait of a Doll when it is highlighted to spend 100% of the gauge and use its Ultimate Skill (remember that only Dolls of 3-stars rarity and above can use their Ultimate Skill), or hold to see Ultimate Skill details.

"I can't sleep yet, I still have work to do..."

This article still needs to be completed with this content: Status Effects.
You can help us by contributing.

Overview[edit]

Battles in Project Neural Cloud take place on a grid of 6×5 hexagonal tiles where the player units start on the two leftmost columns while the enemy units start on the rest of the field, generally this is usually where you would normally set your units, however there are certain exceptions to this during battles later on in the game where both allied and enemy units are be placed in different areas starting areas. The areas you can place your units will be highlighted and some tiles are usually obstructed by structures to create paths and pockets, and some special tiles have an effect on units. Player units are mostly automated; they will seek targets according to the current engagement rules and use their Auto Skill as soon as it is available.

By default, melee classes (Guard and Warrior) will try to move to the nearest accessible enemy to attack. Units can move through tiles occupied by allies, but an enemy must have a non-occupied tile adjacent to them to be a valid target. If there is no enemy that is directly accessible, melee units will destroy non-permanent structures in their way to the nearest accessible enemy and will stand in place if there are still none present.

By default, ranged units (Sniper, Medic and Specialist) will target the nearest enemy and remain at their starting position as long as there is an enemy in range (ranged attacks are not hampered by structures). If there is no enemy in range, they will move forward until there is.

Default engagement rules can change on case-by-case basis depending on used Skills, active Functions, Statuses such as Snipers targeting the farthest enemy rather than the nearest, or Taunts that force enemy units to focus their attacks on a single target.

Players can influence a battle by: Using their Tactical Skills which includes teleportation of a unit or forced focus on a specific enemy, deciding when and how to use Ultimate Skills once the gauge is full, and using Active Functions if they have one.

It is possible to double the battle speed if the player feels they won't need to time their actions precisely. When the battle reaches a certain duration or (if present) the timer runs out, Battlefield Overload will start, causing attacks to deal a percentage bonus damage while healing and shields will receive a debuff. Overload effects will keep growing with time to hasten the resolution of the battle.

At the end of successful battle, one of the Dolls will be elected the MVP with a title depending on performance such as "Iron Wall" for highest damage absorption, "Savage" for highest damage output, Asclepius for highest healing output, and "Impeccable" for highest overall performance. In story stages, a battle can be attempted again up to 10 times if it is lost.

Combat Screen[edit]

Combat Preparation[edit]

The Backup Units are stationed on the column to the left of the battlefield. You can freely swap units between the Main Team and the Backup Units. You can also rearrange the position of the Backup Units to make use of the special backup tiles if any are present.

  1. Current Layer (stage level) and Battle Progress (in Battle of Endurance stages). Tap Menu to retreat (cancels the stage) or to return to the main menu (saves your progress to play later).
  2. Function Row. Tap a Function to see its details. Slide to see more Functions if the bar is too full.
  3. Function Cards Deck Size. You will have to discard a Function if it goes over the limit but there are ways to upgrade it. Protocols will show up at the bottom if any are active. Hover over the icon to display their effect.
  4. Active Function Chains. Tap the arrow or the Function Chains themselves to see details.
  5. Player Unit. Indicates its Class, Power, HP, and Auto Skill recharge. The symbols floating around the unit indicate which Function cards will be applied during combat. Tap to see details of the Doll and the effect tile if the unit is standing on one.
  6. Enemy Unit. Same characteristics as Player Units. Tap to see their attributes and skills.
  7. Tactical Skills (Player Skills). Tap to switch between Flexible Strategy and Offensive Build, and equip Advanced Skills.
  8. Overclocking. Available after Stage 2-10 and lets you exchange Cache Coins for bonuses. See Overclock.
  9. Battle Start!


Battle Phase[edit]

  1. Menu button. Same options as before.
  2. Pause/Play button.
  3. Tap to enable Auto Mode. Every player action will be automated.
  4. Battle Speed. Switch between 1x and 2x speeds. Can be used safely on easy missions but you might miss the opportunity to help a Doll in trouble in harder stages at 2x speed.
  5. Damage Stats. Can be rolled up by tapping the tiny button.
  6. Ultimate Gauge Multiplier. Dictates how fast the Ultimate Gauge is filled up by combat actions, usually at a normal speed of 1.0 but can be higher in resource stages and tutorials.
  7. Ultimate Gauge: Fills with blue and orange when performing actions, up to 100% and 200% respectively. The gauge is carried over between combats in Regular Battles but not between layers. Tap the portrait of a Doll when it is highlighted to spend 100% of the gauge and use its Ultimate Skill (remember that only Dolls of 3-stars rarity and above can use their Ultimate Skill), or hold to see Ultimate Skill details. Critically damaged Dolls have their portrait in red.
  8. Active Functions: Tap to use.
  9. Tactical Skills and Tactical Energy gauge. Tap the icons to use (here shown during initial cooldown). Tactical Energy carries between stages in Normal Battles but not between layers.

Effect Tiles[edit]

Some tiles on the battlefield or on the backup column will produce effects to the units who start a battle on them. This applies to both ally and enemy units.

Field Tiles[edit]

These effect tiles take effect at the start of the battle and cannot be reapplied after it starts.

  • Overdrive: Unit on this tile can release their Auto Skill immediately at the start of battle.
  • Snipe: Gives infinite range, ignores HP shields, and targets the farthest enemy rather than the closest to ranged units for the current battle. Only applies to Ranged Units.
  • Teleport: Melee unit on this tile will be teleported to the enemy furthest away from them. The teleportation will be delayed by 1 second on ally Dolls. (Hatsuchiri cannot trigger this effect tile.)
  • Power Strike: When units on this tile damages Ranged and Melee HP shields, an equal amount of damage is dealt directly to the target's HP.
  • Ranged Damage Reduction: Unit on this tile gain an HP Shield of 15% Max HP against ranged attacks.

  • Flash Attack: Unit on this tile has its ATK decreased by 30% and Attack Speed increased by 60%.

Sector-specific effect tiles[edit]

Though the category says Sector-specific tiles, it is better to say that these tiles are instead introduced in said sectors.

Helios Sector[edit]

  • Energy Herb: Continuously takes effect. Generates an Energy Herb for the last unit passing through this effect tile every 4.6 seconds. Energy Herbs recharge a unit's Auto Skill to full.
  • Pseudo-Energy Herb: Permanent effect. Generates a Pseudo-Energy Herb for the last unit passing through this effect tile every 4.6 seconds. Pseudo-Energy Herb recharges a unit's Auto Skill by 25%.
  • Lure: Immediately teleports the unit on this effect tile to the nearest Energy Herb Tile.

Enigma Sector[edit]

  • Data Adherence: Takes effect at the start of battle. Units on this effect tile are immune to the effects of [Trojan] and applies 2 stacks of [Trojan] every 6 seconds to enemies within a range of 1 tile.

Pierides Sector[edit]

  • Entropy Liquid: Permanent effect. These effect tiles continuously spread on the battlefield. On these effect tiles, all units deal 30% more damage and Entropics recover 5% of their Max HP every 3 seconds while non-Entropics lose 7.5% of their Max HP every 3 seconds.
    • Note: The effect of Entropy Liquid can be mitigated by the Function Cards Multi-core Computing (enhance ally Skill Haste by the number of Entropy Liquid on stage), High-risk Node (enhance ally damage to enemies on Entropy Liquid) and Node Reparation (recover Max HP every 5 seconds when standing on Entropy Liquid). These Function Cards can be acquired at the start of a stage for free by combining the Overclock Function and Free Overclock Procedural Efficiency nodes. The Procedural Efficiency node Entropization Blocker, which reduces damage from Entropy Liquid by up to 30%, can also be unlocked after beating 5-1D.

Copley Sector[edit]

  • Waves: Permanent effect (thought it goes away after a few seconds). Units on the water have their movement speed reduced and deal less damage.
