Nightly Build: Preview
The nightly build has already been in development for several weeks, and this time I am focusing on updating and redesigning several key systems of the game, such as world generation, which dates back to before the full range of IPv4 was included. For a while, patches and workarounds for these systems were sufficient to keep the game world running while new playable features were being added, but at this advanced stage of development, these outdated systems are causing various problems that are interfering with the development of the game, so it is time to review and re-do the necessary systems, such as world generation, interaction with files and devices in general, web page management and search, etc. These internal changes will be transparent to the player, as gameplay will not change, but will bring several visible improvements such as a drastically smaller savegame size in Single Player mode, greater overall stability of the game in both Multiplayer and SinglePlayer, and greater game response and script processing in certain circumstances, as well as the correction of known bugs (like the file content corruption bug) among other improvements. Not only will it result in a more stable gaming experience, but these internal improvements will facilitate the inclusion of new features listed in the Roadmap.
Although this nightly build is mainly dedicated to improving the backend of the game, some new gameplay features will be included. Support will be given so that players can create CTF (capture the flag) events in a more "official" way, with several tools to facilitate the creation and dissemination of the news that a new event has just been created and its rewards. In these events, a player will create a challenge that other players must overcome, such as obtaining a specific file from a remote server. There will also be new hidden and karma missions, more elements of lore, and a complete replacement of the art shown on websites and images of JPG files. Due to the special nature of this nightly build, it is possible that it will be available publicly earlier than in previous cycles. More news soon!

Hello everyone! I would like to share with you the latest news about the development. The public version can already be considered stable, and this means that the next development cycle has already begun. Therefore, the public version will not receive updates for a while until the development of the nightly build ends and merges as usual.
Internal core systems rework

Act for your own benefit, even if it causes collateral damage, help authorities to apprehend criminals or simply keep a low profile and take advantage of the actions of other players.
The interface of the game is similar to a current desktop operating system. The file explorer, the command terminal or text editor are some of the programs that will be available from the start of the game. As you improve your skills you will encounter new utilities may install and use.
In Grey Hack, terminal has a fundamental role, it is also based on actual unix commands and will be an indispensable tool to perform successfully hacking actions.
When you increase your reputation on the network you can choose to join a group of hackers to carry out coordinated attacks or even create your own. Although if you prefer you can choose to go solo.
Keep in mind that a hacker does not have to act economically, so you decide which missions you accept and if you agree with its consequences.
Social engineering is a powerful tool and, in the most difficult cases, can be very helpful. This means that you can try to trick the user of that computer into giving you their credentials, confidential information about another person, etc.
Going to improve your work station will also be important for more and more professional jobs.
