Hackhub 1.3.11 Patch NotesA smaller update. The Online World now asks you to accept its rules before you play, GoMail's trash can restore a mail or delete it for good, and several stuck quests and save problems are closed. NewAdded an Online World rules screen. You read the rules to the end and accept them before the desktop opens. Decline sends you back to the menu. The same text is in the Handbook, under Online World. When the rules change in a way that matters, you are asked to accept them again. Added restore and delete forever to the GoMail trash, and an Empty trash button for the whole folder. Delete forever only works from the trash, so a misclick in the inbox cannot remove a mail. A purged mail stays in the save so a quest can still find it. Added a mod dev mode. Start the game with --mod-dev, or set HACKHUB_MOD_DEV=1, and a rebuilt local mod reloads into the save you were testing. ChangeImages and video on a site you host in the Online World now have to come from a public host. A picture hosted on a server you run no longer loads. Imgur, ImgBB, Postimages, Discord, GitHub, Unsplash, Pexels, Wikimedia, picsum, placeholder services, Giphy, Tenor and Steam still work. Link tags that only warm a connection, such as preconnect, are removed. Firebear tabs for a page served over the simulated web now use that page's title, and the icon the host published. The code editor now follows writes to an open file from outside it, such as the terminal. Unsaved edits in that tab are kept. Deleting the file closes a clean tab, and turns a tab with unsaved edits into an untitled…

Hackhub 1.3.1 Patch NotesA smaller update focused on multiplayer and on the save problems some of you ran into after 1.3.0. Two story soft-locks in The Journalist's Sister are closed as well. NewAdded incognito windows to Firebear. Sign-ins and cookies from an incognito window are dropped when you close it and are never written to your machine. Singleplayer only. Site accounts in a shared world cannot be kept private. Added the declared permissions of each local mod to its card on the Mods page, with a warning on mods that declare none and can therefore use everything. Added settings and enable/disable buttons to Workshop mod cards. Changeopenvpn now enrols a phished VPN profile with the gateway at the moment you use it, rather than only when the file is pulled down. Gateway refusals now state the reason, and a refused certificate can be retried instead of being blocked for the rest of the run.pivot now tells you when you have reached a vault core that another operator already drained, and roughly when it restocks. The internal network reshuffles on restock, so the path has to be mapped again. Greyed out Play, New Game and Load buttons in the menu now explain on hover why they are unavailable. FixesFixed an issue that caused the game to load a blank save while a played save was available, which was reported as lost progress after an update, after a cloud import, or after creating a new game and closing before playing it. Fixed an issue that caused a cloud import to switch to a save that was not part of that import. Fixed story quest objectives completing during multiplayer…

HackHub 1.0 Arrives With Full Multiplayer and Player-Run Infrastructure
HackHub 1.0.0 is the first major release of the hacker simulator, and its headline addition is full multiplayer — a shared, persistent world where players can target each other and raid procedurally generated NPC companies.
What changed
Multiplayer core
A live shared network with procedurally generated company sites and NPC targets
A rebuilt connection flow and a proper notice screen when a player is kicked
Ten new MP-only commands: openvpn, authkey, decode, appraise, crack, clearlogs, pivot, market, launder, and watch
Four new MP-only apps: NetworkMonitor, Siege, Firewall, and Chat — all hidden in singleplayer
Looted keys and decoders drop as real files, decryptable and reconciled with inventory on use
Gated hack stages and a watch sweep that surfaces NPC observer aliases
MP-specific banking and mail flows, including money laundering via the launder command
Singleplayer saves are isolated from multiplayer sessions; the menu warns players of this explicitly
Player-run infrastructure
Two hosting providers — DigitalSea and ArizonaWebServices — with working dashboards for spinning up VPS and cloud servers
Two domain registrars — Namecheep and GoDiddy — for domain registration and DNS management
Cloudfire, a Cloudflare-style CDN that can mask a site's origin IP on paid tiers
Attackers can attempt to uncover hidden origins using dnshistory, whois, dig, and probe, with leaks surfacing on shadowlist.onion
Singleplayer additions
A pile of new apps, commands, and sites, alongside procedurally generated business sites spanning roughly 24 industries
Players who invest in infrastructure now have something tangible to defend — and something worth attacking.
