Matrix Hacking - Disconnect issue

[Tsueg]

I just started playing with hacking, so, perhaps this is already known but I did not see this in the bug list.

I connect to a net, then to another net, then to a third, etc...
When I disconnect ... I disconnect from the first and then the second..


Current example:
connect to a-b-c
disconnect, dumps me back to a
connect to d-e-f
disconnect, dumps me back to a
disconnect, dumps me back to b
disconnect, dumps me back to c
disconnect, dumps me back to d
disconnect, dumps me back to e
disconnect, dumps me back to f
disconnect, dumps me off the terminal.

MY proposal of what it should be.
connect a-b-c
disconnect, dumps me back to b
connect to d-e
disconnect, dumps me back to d
disconnect, dumps me back to b
disconnect, dumps me back to a
disconnect, dumps me off the terminal


I do not know if you are using an array, hash, pointer list, ... but this reminds me of a logic error in the programming where you have first-in -> first out rather than first-in -> last-out, .

Interesting. I guess I see the world of quantum neural-computing differently than you do

[Tsueg]

quite possibly. Although, connecting to a-b-c... and disconnecting a before c... how are my packets of data routed back to me?

This has actually caused me to think of a few ideas for matrix use - including how to add ice and proper decoy use . If I recall correctly, you have plans to scrap this interesting mini-game with a complete replacement, but if it is to stick around please let me know and I will throw up my thoughts and ideas on the other board or message if you would prefer.

I'd love to hear ideas -- I've got a pretty set roadmap based on the beta versions and database formats -- but new ideas are always welcome.

The mini-game mechanics will not change ... however the visuals, map and way the user does Operations may change in future versions.
