I also think that giving new players a safer way to make money it’s a good idea and eases the transition to the game. I would suggest an easier (I think) way to implement this.
Create new program called distributed pc v1. It consumes 100 cpu and 6000 memory to run. The program would work like an adware program that you can only run it on your own gateway and that you then can use the software menu to collect profits depending on the amount of time it has been running (say 5 hpd per hour).
To make it only a training wheel and force player to then go out to the world I would make it so you can only run one version of the program (or like adware only one of the instances gets to make a profit) and it couldn’t be researched.
At 5phd per hour a newbie can make about 120 per day which can help him getting started but later becomes more profitable to do missions. It would also give them an afk source of money which would make life easier to starting players that can only play a few hours.
Additional options would be the usage of bandwidth and make the program susceptible to spyware(just like regular adware).
The ingame explanation of the profit would be that you are renting your cpu to a distributed computing program.
Since the program would pretty much behave like the current adware program it probably would be not that difficult to implement.
.5 per hour would work.. it's a way to earn HPD, and if you never connect no one would be able to find you and you'll be constantly making money. |

I bet Noseedam won't give out his IGN, unless it's the same name.
