Welcome to the Realm of the Hacker Life Mod!

Ever wanted to take revenge on an annoying NPC? Now you can! Ever wanted your Sim to pursuit the life of a hacker? Staying up all night, getting addicted to caffeine and making money? Now you can! Access the Dark Web, loot huge corporates, steal money from banks and get rich! Becoming a millionaire might take some time, but at the end of the journey, it's going to be all worthy!

Main Features:

Brand new skill: Hacker!
You can attack: corporates, non-profit organizations, clubs and private people!
Take part in Hacker Competitions, Workshops and more!
Access 80+ new interactions
Your Sim will have 2 hidden romantic interactions unlocked once he/she receives a flirty buff after a hacking session
Browse the Dark Web: look up maintenance breaks, hack requirements, hacker activities and find traps!
Become a victim of a trap! Traps are laid by other hackers and if you are not careful enough you will lose money!
You can steal up to 2 000 000 simoleons!
The higher skill level you have, the less time it will take to hack something and the more money you can steal!
Or once you are skilled enough, you can hack the Sim National Bank!

The higher hacking skill level you are on, the more targets you will have! Most targets though, are only available between 22 and 6 in the morning! There are some targets and traps that are only available between certain times, for example, you can have access to Future Sims Lab between 12 and 15 o'clock and only on Wednesdays! After you have reached level 10 of the hacking skill, you can still have new targets, by expanding your Logic Skill! The highest paying targets require your Sims to be in a certain mood, you can find out more about that using the Dark Web on your computer. Speaking of Dark Web, its main functions are only available between 23 and 6 in the morning and the higher skill level you have, the more functions will appear for you! Be careful, the Dark Web costs money! Once you've hacked a target it won't be available for a certain time!

These are the future plans for now:

Police add-on (Hacking has certain consequences like jail time, set backs and fees! Work together with the police to catch other hackers or help other hackers get away from police)
Hacker v Hacker add-on (Nerdistic can't wait to meet a worthy opponent)
Robin-Anti-Robin Hood add-on (more meaning to the good and evil traits, Sims can give back to those in need or quite the opposite, steal from new organizations)
Dark Web Plus add-on (subscription to the Dark Web will unlock new content and also get rid off ads)
Spammers add-on (Spammers are going to be more aggressive than scammers; they will break your computer, steal money and data from you!)
Mentoring add-on (Once you have successfully hacked the highest target, mentoring will become available on the Dark Web. You will be able to mentor students at home, or through a career!)
New aspirations, events and more!

All ideas are welcomed!
