Rules:

All runs revolve around executing porthack on the Heart as fast as possible.

Any%/Cheat%:

  • Looking at your save data and using that info is strictly prohibited.
  • No guessing of randomized variables.
    • (i.e. The Entropy Test Server's Admin password is randomized (non-static), Naix's root gateway's ip is static (always the same).)

Heart%:

  • Looking at your save data and using that info is strictly prohibited.
  • No guessing of randomized variables.
  • Cheater's Stash (1337.1337.1337.1337) & Credit Server (226.187.99.3) are not allowed to be used.

Heart%-secure:

  • Looking at your save data and using that info is strictly prohibited.
  • No guessing of randomized variables.
  • Cheater's Stash (1337.1337.1337.1337) & Credit Server (226.187.99.3) are not allowed to be used.
  • In order to use a passwords or IPs it must have been on-screen prior to using it.
  • No sequence breaks.

Additional Notes:

  • When I type "Node" in a walkthrough I mean the linked node in the mail you receive.
  • I've flagged Missions with Proxies & Firewalls, for ease in routing. (Stringing together as much Proxies in one go)
  • The IP for the Porthack.Heart changes with every game, as such we can't simply connect to it from the start of the game.
  • Total RAM is 761 MB, It's possible to run SSH, Web and FTP with 2 Shells. This is the fastest way to hack anything that requires 3 open ports.
  • In case of a 4 port hack, alternate with the fastest and biggest blocks.
  • KBTPortTest 104 is by far the slowest hack in the game and takes up the most RAM.
  • There's no "Quick Kill" for the tutorial, the tutorial process isn't running when we can first type, proof video:
    • Actually I've managed to run a "PS" command before the tutorial started by exiting and loading again, frame perfect skip maybe?
  • As for sequence breaks, I have not yet found a server that will trigger any of the emails for the final missions.
