The Hacker Project - a free online game

- task completing depends on file size now, not just time / mb.

   Remote delete:
   -> 1 mb => 60 sec / mb
   -> 12.5 mb => 59 sec / mb
   -> 12.5*2 mb => 58 sec / mb
   -> 12.5*3 mb => 58 sec / mb new: 35m 38s old: 37m 30s
   ...
   -> 625 (12.5*50) mb => 10 sec / mb new: 1h 44m 10s old: 10h 25m 0s

   Gateway localhost delete:
   -> 1 mb => 6 sec / mb
   -> 12.5*10 mb => 5 sec / mb
   -> 12.5*20 mb => 4 sec / mb
   -> 12.5*30 mb => 3 sec / mb new: 16m 40s old: 50m 0s
   ...
   -> 625 (12.5*50) mb => 1 sec / mb new: 10m 25s old: 1h 2m 30s
   
   Install vir time:
   -> 1 mb => 2 sec / mb
   -> 12.5*10 mb => 1.67 sec / mb
   -> 12.5*20 mb => 1.33 sec / mb
   -> 12.5*30 mb => 1 sec / mb new: 6m 15s old: 12m 30s
   ...
   -> 625 (12.5*50) mb => 0.33 sec / mb new: 3m 28s old: 20m 50s
   
   Example: Activate Robber Baron V 0.1 activation from 53 hours gets to 6x less ~= 8 hours
   

- so on large files over 625 Mb you get 6x time faster for: Copy, Delete, Install vir, Hide, UnHide, Decrypt, Encrypt

So overall, working with files over 625 Mb is faster and more profitable in case of "Delete file" missions, decrypt missions etc.

More action, more fun :)

Going to work on newbie group and improving the newbie starting resources as well as mission on public servers tomorrow.

Will also look at balancing mission rewards.

God Speed!

Love everything I read here. Good job, Emi!

Thanks :)

You may have to restart some tasks... the timers on the old tasks can't be touched.

I noticed on my baron. I LOVE this update! Brings a whole new element to PvP!
