Something to make Denial missions easier. Like ONE denial thing per security system =/

Being able to someone permanently save bounce points

"Experience Points" showing however many missions of whatever difficulty or whatever to get to the next skill level

Letting the scroll button work.

Assigning keyboard buttons (hotkeys) to certain software. Like File copier etc.

Organizing the Bookmark/shortcut page. Set groups and such. Like (Uplink) (ISM's) (Gateways).

Giving InterNIC a console. Deleting a whole bunch of logs would be easier (log nuker sucks btw)

etc. etc.

The denial missions are as hard as they are supposed to be.

I assume you mean saving bounce lists to a file. This idea has been suggested many a time and will probably be implemented at some point.

Uplink Rating is a measure of this. However, I think the user profile HUD should show current statistics like you see on the disavowed/death screen:
  • Low security systems hacked
    High security systems hacked
    Banks hacked
    Government systems hacked
    Lives ruined
    People killed
It should also incoporate the "Fear" value.

Not sure what you mean by that. If you mean the mouse scroll wheel, good idea.

This has been discussed before. The problem is that operating shortcuts might get in the way and it would be hard to get this to work.

I don't think we should do exactly this, but maybe have a filter box just like InterNIC does, so we can type "Internal" to get all the servers with "Internal" in their name.
This reminds me, Miah, you need to fix a bug in the game. When searching for plotline target servers with "ARC" in the name, Chris used a wildcard system (*ARC*), which unfortunately returns servers with "Research" in the name.

If InterNIC was given a console it could be shut down and stuff. This would mess up the game. The Log Nuker still has bugs in it. It's designed to be kinda sucky on purpose, so that you have to do it yourself (which takes time).

Yet mace isn't it possible to force a console on it with the right software?
