Ok, managed to complete it this time.

First, I restarted the game 4 times so I had an interface.

I just did everything even faster than before. I ended on 1 Integrity and an attack coming in 15 seconds.

The first AI I had at 3% hostility and he still only attacked me and still at about ~120 second intervals. Neither AI ever attacked anything else in all my games. Without you saying otherwise I would not believe it was possible for them to do so.

Congrats

So the AI attacking only you regardless of hostility on medium difficulty is intentional then?

Then what is the point of the hostile %?

It influences how often they attack you.

help screen does not mention ESC button.
I think ESC is a key button to cancel operation before times run oun. (avoid being traced)

Second thing, trace bug:
Start tutorial
hack first server, double click it (bounce)
Now, trace timer will start. (you will gain more tracetime sametime also)
Wait until timer is 5s
Then unclick bounce, you are immediately traced. (you can heard double ZERO..)

In hard difficulty, It feels like you need only double click any server two times and you are traced. (lose flawless)

It's because you remove it from the bounced link, and the trace time decreases accordingly. It's normal.

A bit off there buddy

Space = auto target the local client aka stop trace.
So when your done with a thing, esc followed by a swift space
Also the second, regardless of double click or single click, you click on any client other than local host, you start getting trace timer!

You get 10 seconds before being traced when you lock onto a host.
This was added to keep the gamer a bit on the edge and engaged.

To clear some confusions and the purpose of the above.

The game will have multiplayer.
When you lock onto an opponent, only then will you be able to see his configuration.
And he gets a warning message.

I had multiplayer in mind when designing some of the aspects.

a little ui bug:
start level "3 The Theft"
hack first server.
open interface of the server, close ui
open localhost, click bottom right corner and suddenly you see a button


It would be nice to see level wich you are playing.
Savegames (or profiles) does not show difficulty level. (you can see that only after a load)
