Changelogs
Version 4.0 for Campaign
Fixed missing bind for using a suit repair kit in the focus menu in the campaign version. Thanks to vacoid and zissakos for pointing this out!
Version 3.0
Removed the randomized button prompts to finish the hack, and changed it to be always F (or B/O for controllers)
This change affects both the campaign and Mooncrash versions
Version 2.0 for Mooncrash
Added support for Mooncrash
Version 2.0 for Campaign
Small update which changes the bitstream and target nodes' co-ordinates, so that they're at the center of the screen instead of being center-left, so that it's easier on the eyes. The change is purely cosmetic, but if you are updating, delete the previous version first!
Version 1.0 for Campaign
First upload
Makes the hacking puzzle require only one button press! Start the hack, then press the F key (or B for Xbox, or O for PS4), No need to move the bitstream anywhere!
To be clear, this doesn't skip the hacking puzzle, it just makes the puzzle require one button press. Please check the "videos" tab to see a demo of the mod!
This mod is based on jvarnes' PREY Super Easy Hacking mod (with their permission), and also fixes the issue where some level 3 and 4 hacks didn't work.
How It Works This mod edits "Ark\HackingPuzzles" and its four sub folders (for all 56 hacking puzzles), as well as "Libs\Config\defaultProfile.xml" (for the single button press).
Campaign Tested on:
Level 1: IT Office door @ Lobby
Level 2: Safe @ Lobby entrance to Psychotronics
Level 3: Safe @ Lobby security office
Level 4: Moran Yu's office door @ Lobby
To install, unpack the archive, and place "patch_one_button_hack.pak" at "SteamApps\common\Prey\GameSDK\Precache".
Mooncrash Tested on:
?
Due to the nature of Mooncrash, most hackable items spawn randomly, so I wasn't able to conduct a thorough and replicable test. However, I did use the mod myself over the course of a 30+ hr playthrough, and ran into no issues.
