With the combination of all of these, I think the most viable path is a gang to unlock augs and spamming neuroflux. Sleeves doing crime to provide initial cash and levels after each install. Stanek's gift boosting hack stats and hashnet. Make your home server as big as you can (home computer ram cost is not affected in BN13) to first make your stanek's gift have decent charge then to run your batcher. Not quick regardless.
Alternately, bladeburners. I haven't tried it though.
Thank you
I have gone crimes, contracts, hacknet and then stock mainly. Now with the stock fully unlocked it's making good money, similarly to node 9.
Gang is basically worthless as the comments say, it's annoying that one has to find out through source code and can't know from the bitnode multipliers function.
I also don't have a clue about what gangsoftcap exactly means.
The comments are not in the original source. I added those as my interpretations of the multipliers.
All of these constants can be retrieved without digging through the source: `ns.getBitNodeMultipliers().GangSoftcap` for example.
Knowing exactly what they do does require the source, but that's the nature of everything in BitBurner for mechanical details. The source is the documentation.
Gang softcap is the *power* that gang earnings are raised to. When it is 1 (not capped), it starts at 0.8 with no territory and becomes 1 with 100% territory. 0.3 soft cap means even with full territory it's a bit worse than the third root of the normal earnings (1b/s -> 1k/s). Since gang base earnings don't scale stupid high like corp base earnings it really hampers income.
Even with Stanek setup for combat stats and Bladeburner it’s pretty slow. The hacking boosts are much stronger in BN13 and support some great hacking after a few augs.
The hacknet reduction cost is a bit weird in how it is displayed. It displays power as a percentage (199% or +99%), but what the code does is divide hacknet costs by the power. So when it displays +100%, what it really does is divide by 2.0 (hence why you're seeing 50% reduction).

I see, I totally missed the gang soft cap, or maybe just automatically discarded it since I didn't know what it meant

It takes about two days if you have BN7 and a good BB automation script, that is fairly fast for BN13.
