New Commands

  • `grep` / `find` - search files for text (file first for tab completion)

  • `dir`, `cls`, `whoami`, `hostname`, `man` - quality of life aliases

Right-Click Context Menu

  • Right-click IPs, file paths, links, or highlighted text

  • IPs: Copy, SSH, Browse, Probe

  • Files: Copy, Cat, Edit, Download, Delete

  • "Add to Notes" on anything - appends to ~/notes.txt

  • Works across all panes

Terminal Polish

  • Coloured `ls` output: scripts green, configs purple, encrypted amber

  • Status bar: CPU, RAM, DISK coloured independently by usage

  • Large files won't freeze the game anymore

  • Help reference panel shows when editing any file

  • `help api` now shows all 38 functions

  • Browser page alignment fixed

Live Logs

  • Your actions now appear in server log files in real time

  • `cat /var/log/auth.log` to see your own footprint

  • Log management is now a real gameplay mechanic

Network Panel

  • Shows your actual IP address at the top (the game one, not yours)

Browser

  • `browse` with no argument shows a start page with bookmarks and recent servers

  • Shop and Jobs always listed

  • Back button returns to start page instead of closing

  • Shop messages show in the browser, not the terminal

API Updates

  • Clearer names: `get_trace_time()`, `get_noise()`, `get_my_ip()`

  • Old names still work as aliases

  • New: `write_file()`, `whoami()`, `get_hostname()`

  • `local_crack()` is now progressive like `crack()` instead of instant

  • `get_my_ip()` is now free

  • `file_type()` returns semantic types (text, script, image, archive, etc.)

  • String `.replace()` method

Shop

  • Every tool has its own product page with descriptions and reviews

  • Hardware pages explain what upgrades actually do

Discoverability

  • second_hand mentions the shop after your first mission

  • Getting started guide now covers the shop

  • Updated API reference docs

Editor Tools

  • Syntax highlighting for .bd files

  • VS Code, Notepad++, and Sublime Text

  • Download at blackdoor.tools/tools

Main Menu

  • What's New tab shows patch notes in-game

Save Compatibility

  • Existing saves automatically get new files (like getting_started.txt)

  • Your modified scripts and custom files are never overwritten

Heads Up

  • CPU usage tracking is more accurate now. If your scripts were running

near the limit, they might hit 100% and get killed. Add `sleep()`

calls between heavy API calls to manage CPU usage.

Bug Fixes

  • Fixed exploit where scripts could pause an active trace (thanks for the report!)

  • Fixed CPU display accuracy and decay

  • Fixed browser text clipping

  • Fixed incorrect help text for crack command

  • Fixed balance display lag after purchases

  • Ctrl+C now cancels the quit confirmation prompt

  • Faster game startup

Don't get used to this. Normal service resumes next patch: one bug fix and a new lunch order for Tim.
