Can't change a person's College Degree?

[Lord Ned]

I've accepted two missions, asking me to change someone's College Degree, or err.. Its..Uh.. *starts uplink* This!:

So, i've hacked in, and at a very slow track, (In and found his username by 9 % trace. )

So i'm not sure what thing to put it in, so i put

"Btech in IT" In all three collums, because i'm not sure which it goes in. Anyways, i reply to the message, and it says i have not changed his info. Am i doing something wrong, or is this a glitch. (Probably not a glitich) But which spot do they go into, because i have one where i need "Artificial Technologies, Class 1" That i have to put in for another guy. Any help apreciated.

I knew that!
I've messed up a few of 'em, i think, is there anyway to change them back, and if you have put it in all, will it not work?

EDIT!

w00t! Thanks. I got both missions done, and my rank went up to "Intermedite" (sp?)

[Montyphy]

Not quite sure I know what you mean. As soon as you complete a mission of this kind you can remove what you added if you wanted without any problems. The people who hired you wont come back complaining or take the money back from you. So, it doesn't matter if what you entered on peoples' records is crap or made up.

[Lord Ned]

Cool, thanks. That explained my question. Hmmn... Next question: How fast is the max prossessor money can buy? Because i just got it.


Aww, hell naw. I just got disowned. (By uplink) >.<

So now i have to completely start over? All that money gone, all thouse rank updates, and everything? =/

It was bound to happen i guess. Now it makes me wanna play Darwinia more.

[Montyphy]

Only one?

[Lord Ned]

I got caught, and disowned. AHH DAMMIT! I bet i know why. Early in the game, i got caught, and they charged me. (3 times i got caught) So i paid 2 of the fines, but accdently deleted the 3 email, with the bank account i was gonna send the money to. Do you think they finaly got around and caught me cause i didn't pay the fines?

[Montyphy]

3 strikes and you're out?

[Lord Ned]

Err, sure?

Is there anyway for someone else to hack uplink, and make them "re-own" you? :O

[Montyphy]

Have you tried hacking Uplink?

[Lord Ned]

Well, i can't can i? I'm locked out of my gateway, and can't get in to hack.. Wait a minute. I don't think you can hack Uplink, you get traced instantly. (Do you get introuble if you try and hack International Services, (and get caught) Because i did that, ytrack went to 100% instaly).

[Montyphy]

Obviously, if you do a direct connect you will get traced instantly if you hack them.

[Lord Ned]

No, here is a view of how many i ping every time.


I've got a idea for a update: MAKE THIS SAVEABLE! THat way you can save a pre-set , (say up to 10 servers) that you ping off of then, you just click the last server, and hit COnnect, instead of hitting, each one by mouse, every time.

And the side of it's cut off. =/

[Montyphy]

Sorry, cant see the image since my firefox is playing up.

What version of Uplink are you using? Bounces are savable and editable in later versions (i.e. post 1.31).

[Lord Ned]

Hmmn, not sure what version. All i know is i'm running Windows XP, and got it though steam. (Right before the update. )
