OK, so when they were able to conjure up an entire car at the beginning of Enter the Matrix I was a bit confused.

They just appeared in the Matrix next to a phone, and when they got to the street, the operator was able to "whoosh" a car!!! Just put a car in the Matrix, apparently out of thin air.

Why not conjure up a tank?

A nuclear warhead?

Do they have to be near a phone to deploy a vehicle?

Or perhaps that's what cell phones are good for as opposed to walkee talkee radios?

Eh???

Furthermore, if they can just "whoosh" things into the Matrix, then why send people in at all? Why not send robots?

Like in Reloaded when Trinity had to jack in to shutdown the power.

Why didn't they just "whoosh" in a small hacking device that would tap into some network wires and send all the commands Trinity had to type in in a single instant?

The point of all this is for my Matirx story "The Matrix; Patriot's Dream,".

I have this cool idea that my main character, Patriot, invents a new wire-fu fighting style that involves deploying walls behind you continuously while you run. It won't stop agents of course - agents can punch through walls - but it would slow them down. It takes a bit of time to smash through a wall, you know? Patriot can deploy hundreds of walls virtually instantly by making specific hand gestures with this program while in the Matrix.

If there's no story conflicts with everything else Matrix ...

They don't woosh things in the load them up, Morpheus explains this in the first Matrix, with the construct they are able to load anything they need, Neo asks for guns (lot of guns) he gets them when he goes in, Trinity has a few bikes to jack in with in The Matrix & Reloaded, even the clothes they wear are loaded up the same way the car was

Exactly. So why can't they bring in tanks and/or nuclear weapons?

Proabbly because destorying the Matrix isn't there plan, then want to free everyone not kill them

That would make sense, except for these statements by Morpheus:

__________________

The people still hardwired to the matrix are enemies, but that's beside the point. Everyone in the matrix is potentially an agent. The only thing is that once they are freed that possibility is gone. Everyone in the matrix is also potentially someone that can be on thier side. I'm not saying that there arn't risks with this but a single grain of rice can tip the scale in thier favor. The goal is to free everyone, if they kill everyone simply because they are a potential agent, that would be hypocracy and it wouldn't make for a good movie either.

Well if you say that then why not have all the ships fly into the Power Plant and set of there EMP that way they wouldn't even have to jack in to kill the millions plugged into the Matrix

Becauase of the squiddies!! LOL

I don't mean using those kinds of weapons to kill everyone - but think about it! Alot of the scenes in Reloaded would have made alot more sense if they'd brought in some heavy artillery, which they seem to be able to do more in Enter the Matrix (though it was chronologically earlier) but the things they can do in Enter the Matrix imply that they could do other things (as I pointed out in post 1)

Specifically, why did Trinity have to jack in in Reloaded at all? (when Neo said not to) Why didn't they just send in a robot / hacking device?

Maybe because such a thing doesn't exist and creating something that can fight its way into a building and hack a computer faster than Trinity can would ruin the story...

Why would you want to use bombs and such, say your Neo in one world your just like everyone else but your idolised more, in the other your a Super Messiah, would you want to destory the other world?

No, no, I'm not talking about destroying the world. I'm talking about using machines in the Matrix to reduce people's risk.

Supposedly, phone lines are the ilnk between the Matrix and the real world. Things can be sent in as well as people. (as they never appear naked inside the Matrix, and they seem to be able to load up vehicles) So why not send in a small wire-tapping device to execute all the keyboard commands Trinity had to do manually in the Matrix Reloaded and shut down all the power in the city without putting ANY lives at risk?
