Hi everyone! We are reaching the end of cycle 0.5, there is one last update in which I am redesigning the tutorial so that players without experience in UNIX systems can learn the basic things to be able to play without problems. Version 0.6 will bring more changes in the gameplay, especially in multiplayer. This update focuses around the concept of renting remote servers that can be completely controlled by the player. With the use of computers rented by the player, the concept that the player keeps virtually the computer turned on when leave the game is replaced. Since now these rented computers will be used if you want to leave some program/service running even if you are not connected to the game. You can rent as many remote machines as you want, although you will have to pay a monthly fee for each, which adds value to the game's money, which until now was only used to buy exploits. Obviously the player must protect the security of these computers, as any player who came to them could hack them. These servers will serve the player to publish their web pages more adequately, since now if a player wants to publish a website he has to modify an existing page and surely no player would find it. From now on, when a player creates a web page, it can be easily accessed from the internet search engine. In future updates these custom webs will have more functionality such as allowing the player to create missions that other players can solve as well as create stores. Missions created in the multiplayer mode will be modified to require the player to install the services required by the mission on a remote rented server, allowing access to a computer belonging to a player even if is not online. The map will have more functionality, since from there it will be able to connect automatically to any machine of which we have its credentials, being able to create chains of connections easily. The players that want to contribute with the test of the version 0.6, I will enable the experimental branch with the most recent changes along with some tools that will facilitate the testing. When the first experimental version is ready I will notify you and publish the details to access. Regards!
