[Nightly] Update v0.9.5944
[h3]Changelog[/h3]
- Added net_session.flood_connection method to perform DDoS attacks. This attack must be carried out from multiple networks and terminals to be effective. If the attack succeeds, the victim’s machine will reboot and will not be available for 10 minutes (ingame time). More information is available in the method documentation. Depending on the victim's network speed, two or more players with multiple active terminals each will be needed for the DDoS attack to be effective.
- It is now possible to hire Superadmins for rentals via ConfigLan. Like in NPC networks, superadmins intercept overflow attacks by forcing guest permissions and also protect networks from DDoS attacks. Unlike NPC network Superadmins, they do not initiate passive or active traces. When a superadmin is hired, the whois information is updated with the new admin’s details, which can be used to identify the NPC’s associated network. If the Superadmin dies or is fired, they will stop working for the player who hired them.
- Hiring superadmins adds a new monthly payment to the bank. For testing purposes, the payment amount is symbolic.
- Fixed bug that caused IPs not to be properly logged in system.log when connecting remotely from a terminal launched from another terminal.
- Fixed regression bug in safe mode terminal that caused the terminal to freeze when using exit or reboot.
- Fixed bug that allowed bypassing the cooldown limit for launching GUI programs via scripting.
- Increased cooldown for launching GUI programs to 2 seconds.
- Fixed bug that caused the custom bash icon not to display immediately when opening a new terminal window.
