6. NETWORK MIGRATION (PRESTIGE SYSTEM)
6.1 Migration Overview
Network migrations reset most progress but provide permanent bonuses. Each represents a technological leap forward.
6.2 Migration Tiers
6.2.1 First Tier: "Cloud Migration"
- Reset: All basic resources, infrastructure, most upgrades
- Keep: Certain skills, cards collected, achievements, terminal unlocks
- Rewards: Cloud Credits based on achievements and total resources
- Bonuses: Each Cloud Credit provides +2% to all resource production
6.2.2 Second Tier: "Quantum Leap"
- Requires: Substantial Cloud infrastructure
- Rewards: Quantum Bits based on Cloud Credits and infrastructure
- Bonuses: Each Quantum Bit provides more powerful bonuses
- Unlocks: Quantum computing mechanics (probability-based outcomes)
6.2.3 Third Tier: "Neural Integration"
- Requires: Advanced quantum network
- Rewards: Cognition Units that automate decision-making
- Bonuses: Systems become partially self-optimizing
- Unlocks: Bio-digital interface capabilities
6.2.4 Fourth Tier: "Dimensional Sharding"
- Requires: Neural network with 90%+ efficiency
- Effect: Split your network into multiple parallel dimensions
- Mechanics: Each dimension has modified properties (e.g., +200% processing but -50% storage)
- Rewards: "Dimensional Fragments" that provide non-linear bonuses
6.2.5 Fifth Tier: "Blockchain Integration"
- Requires: Multiple stable dimensions
- Effect: Transform network into a decentralized blockchain-based infrastructure
- Mechanics: Resources tokenized into virtual cryptocurrency
- Rewards: "Consensus Tokens" for unique blockchain-based upgrades
6.2.6 Sixth Tier: "Biological Computing"
- Requires: Decentralized network with high integrity
- Effect: Integrate biological components into digital infrastructure
- Mechanics: New resources like "Nutrients" and "Oxygen" for bio-components
- Rewards: "Neural Plasticity Points" for adaptive infrastructure
6.2.7 Seventh Tier: "Temporal Recursion"
- Requires: Mature bio-digital hybrid
- Effect: Implement time manipulation technology
- Mechanics: Create "temporal loops" where past versions contribute resources
- Rewards: "Causality Tokens" for peeking at future upgrade outcomes
6.2.8 Final Tier: "Existential Transcendence"
- Requires: Stable temporal network
- Effect: Network achieves sentience and transcends computational limitations
- Mechanics: Network generates its own objectives and self-optimizes
- Rewards: "Reality Shards" that can fundamentally change game mechanics
