Decided to spruce up the traveling. You can either walk, bike (if you own one), take buses from/to the corners of the map for some money. Or take a taxi to/from any tile for extra $.

Got a few "appliances" you can buy at the local radio-shock. :P They give you bonuses. Fridge allows you to store groceries longer, and a stove gives you extra happiness if you eat home cooked meals.

AlphaV1.020: Shaping the generic server template into a maintenance server template. There will be servers managing food dispensers, air filtration units and power sub-stations and network infrastructure. #cyberpunk #gamedev #indiegame

And workers can update status of maintenance requests assigned to them. (still working on a internal message board for logs. and messages between workers<>supervisors<>Coordinators.)

AlphaV1.020: Shaping the generic server template into a maintenance server template. There will be servers managing food dispensers, air filtration units and power sub-stations and network infrastructure. #cyberpunk #gamedev #indiegame

Have a fully simulated maintenance request system. Maintenance Coordinators can create maintenance request for machines and assign them to supervisors.

AlphaV1.019 - Now "simulating" activity on the servers! Using "portsniffer" service you can check connections by sessionID and see the size of packets passing by. But more importantly for now, you can see if the connection is secure or not. #cyberpunk #gamedev #indiegame

AlphaV1.018 : Server/Botnet Apps! Botnets can now be assigned apps, which grants it special features or buffs. #gamedev #cyberpunk #indiegame

AlphaV1.017 : Trace & Botnets rework Botnets can be ordered/chained between you and the server add a 'buffer' to the trace. Now also visualized. New 'botnet coordinator' service that gates how many botnets you can use and manage them. #cyberpunk #gamedev #indiegame

AlphaV1.015: Date & Time + Player Dwelling You'll need to get a decent place to recruit mercenaries to join your grid crew. But you start off living in a room a bit larger than a coffin with a door. And that's not free! There's bills to pay! Get to work slacker! #gamedev #cyberpunk #indiegame

AlphaV1.013: .dat files can longer be copied or moved. Sort of realized you could just copy the .dat files and make infinite money reselling it. Was going to assign GUID to .dat files and only allow selling it once, but if you can't duplicate it, no guid needed. 💸 #gamedev #indiegame #cyberpunk

More Progress with my "cyberpunk" hacking game! Updated UI, "crawler" and "script manager" are now on the same screen. Way more convenient! Also got working "files" that you can delete or view. With different user account types and permissions! #gamedev #cyberpunk

This is going to take a while, but slow progress is better than no progress! Got a semi-working "broker" system. This will be portal to get get you jobs, scripts or some hardware to upgrade your rig. This is a bit boring, but necessary base. Can't wait to share my idea for "loot"! #gamedev

So the mod continues to grow! Added two mini-games, that the player must resolve in order to convert CityNet vulnerable sub-nets into a botnets to help slow down tracing when attacking mission servers. #Bitburner #JavaScript #JSX

Sine-wave mini-game, where the user has to find the correct values for frequency, amplitude and phase to match the exposed connection's signature.

Each sub-net the user discovers (via a ping.exe script) will have a stated vulnerability. Said vulnerability will be associated to it's own mini-game.
