Demo Patch notes - 0.6.0

Blackdoor · published 8 Apr 2026, 01:10 UTC

All newsPlayers around this dateRead on Steam

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.
