Finally, my Hacker can do something other than downloading PD and actually do some serious damage to the Megacorps.

yeah hackers are getting more useful.
I plan to have 6 specific types of jobs for hackers in the end.
We have 6 jobs types now.
The next 6 jobs are coming soon.
That will give us 12.
The total list we are working on testing is 36 job types.
once that is done, lord, should be plenty to do =)

I suppose there is no point in going back and editing it, then. :-)
Thanks, all.

of course we can't stop at one-off jobs. we need more, right?
so we have a thing in CK called the JobSequence
A fixer will start it and you can (with a time limit) run through a campaign against a Faction or Empire.
Say, pick up this file, hack this host, bomb this shop, hack another host, deliver a package, assassinate the boss. all tied together so the player, contact, target and stuff all move around in NBZ and hide in shops, use rumors and conflicts as cover, etc.

Suggestion for a new type of job.. Extraction/ Rescue : Saving CORP HVT from gang turf, or Busting gangers out of prison.

If somebody finds a way to extract the texts from ST, I could go through that as well. But given that I have lost every single battle I have had there, I think it would be a very slow process for me to find the texts any other way.

that sounds like a HELL of an offer Trese Brothers! take it! [if at all possible?] i would love for ST to be as clean as possible... grävling-my first few captains had that fate... when i was in the right mood i took a lot more time to start things moving... but i still eventually get totally devastated outta nowhere <ouch> i just keep playing all 3 games at seemingly random intervals until CK gets a big update =)

I have sent the ST texts to many people and even have posted it for translations on a public collaboration site.

I love the sounds of all those job types,so much to keep me from just killing people.
Ill add a job type suggestion. A simple defend this spot/person against waves of angry whatever till time limits up,or a little more fun take on that is following a dude around while people pop out and you have to kill them as quik as possible then catch back up to target...it gets harder and harder till destination is reached. I know!,all those missions involve killing lots of people but those are the kinda jobs a cybersword likes!
