I did enjoy Hacknet and Uplink back in the day, but I'm afraid that my collapsing brain simply crumpled under the intellectual weight required by this game. I set :impcon's host, hit exploit, failed the set_host test. After a couple of alternate hosts in list, I was about out of ideas. I also happened upon a couple of crashes after running :impcon config, so maybe my computer is just full of termites.

For actual, tangible feedback that doesn't amount to "please pander to my 70 IQ", the bright gridlines distract from the server icons in the map.  Fun to mess with the terminal, though. Good luck with the game.

Thanks for trying. Did you not try dprint to see what the server was set to? Or was it not clear enough on the screen when displayed? You are the second to say they just tried all the hosts in the list so I am wondering if is the instructions saying try dprint or if I need to make the relevant server information easier to notice. If you found the list I could also throw a tip in the help files to say. Get server info using dprint.

The :impcon set_host to nothing and then :impcon config is a known bug I have fixed for the next version. Thanks again.

Aaaaaah, I see now, you're not looking for a direct match.

Once I knew what I was looking for, knocked out the 4 jobs in 10 minutes. Lot of fun. I'd just slap a "MATCH THE SHELL'S DETAILS IN DPRINT TO LIST" on :impcon's help printout under list or something, that should be all you need to point thicky thicky dumb dumbs like me in the right direction.

Good game!

Yeah I was following a thing like "Production Name" and "production_name". I will throw that notice in but if it is a consistent problem for people I can change it. Thanks for playing and hope you found the secret.

I did! And if you're asking for feedback on the max hack thing: I absolutely disagree. Cleared it with 90 seconds to spare. That's IF you don't decide to cheese it by listing the host/os through :raexec/:impcon and then dcing for extra time. Brother, it's a hacksim. I want that final secret server to be under lockdown with every trick in the book.
