The Hypercluster

#HackerJam Honorable Mention: Most Brain-Melting Mechanics. Even Matt found his skills tested.

You have beaten all the challenges laid before you. Now a mysterious group tasks you with a new challenge.

Can you overcome The Hypercluster? Or will you fall at the first hurdle?


2017/10/25 11:05 UTC Creator's note: So I think I finally figured out what was breaking saves in my extension. Here's to hoping this update fixes it.

Update 14/11/2021 UTC: God it's been a while since it was removed from the workshop hasn't it? Doing better mentally, finally... Anyway I am restoring this because I recently re-discovered it in my hard drive after all this time. With the ID and everything! Turns out I never actually uninstalled Hacknet after all this time.

That being said... Honestly? This is a product of it's time, and I don't really plan to change what's already being established except to make sure they are actually working. For those new, don't go into this extention expecting a real puzzle (turns out 2017 me sucked at puzzles, and present me still does too). This is an extension where everything's tuned to be as "to the wire" with timings as possible. Renaming port hackers is heavily recommended.

It's also fairly light on the (side/back)story. I used to have all these notes on my main drive about other fun little things I could hide in various clusters before that decided to kick the bucket. Thankfully a friend was able to give me their map of Cluster G (which they made after I messed up and forgot the order when Cluster G broke the first time). I need to add it somewhere in the game as an easter egg.

Also, I will pre-emptively apologise for the absolute hell on lower-end PCs that is Cluster T. I, however, am not sorry enough to change it in any way. The main lagging script ends once you beat the challenge.

Compatability Testers (Without you, there might have never been a FastActionHost Daemon):

Fayti1703: 15-25 fps (Pre-v2), 60 fps (Post-v2), i7-860 (quad core), 6GB RAM, nVIDIA GTX 660 2048MB, Ubuntu 16.04

Compatability Patch v1 does not load everything at launch and instead loads them in as needed. Unfortunately due to how the Action Scripts work, most of the scripts do not un-load so performance will degrade.
Compatability Patch v2 is the new system introduced in v5.065 where a dedicated delay host Daemon was made. This has vastly improved the resource cost.
