Basics
General
* You can skip the cut-scenes with RMB
* Once you purchase the Tablet, you can accept/fulfill orders via the tablet, hotkey is T
* Wallrunning: Jump up and forwards and strafe into the wall while moving forwards, then hit the wallrun button. I think it was shift. (thanks @Cpl. Spelguru, i'll verify strafe button later on)

Jobs hints
* Paint jobs: you need to spray all required colors or the task is not counted as complete (thanks @Snowpig)
* Paint jobs: you might want to switch between "auto-fill" and "brush" modes

Finances tricks
* A quick tip for the "Replace part X with a new one" task. If you want to save money, just swap with the same type of part from the mech and it will count as completed. For example, using the same armor piece but from the other leg of the mech does the trick. (thanks @Shadowstorm)
* If you buy shares for a company, and then you finish a job from them (not a contract), then you also get a tenth of what all your shares of that company are worth. The more jobs you do for the same company, the more share you can buy. The more shares you buy, the more money you get per job. (thanks @Hammockguy)

Minigames
* the three electrics bench minigames have different rules for each bench: cable bench (the one in the middle): simply connect green square with yellow square. Cell bench (the one on the left): connect green with yellow, and the three violet too. Core bench (the one on the right): connect green with yellow but not the three violet ones. Here - if you need it - you can disrupt connections by clicking on a normal field. (thanks @Snowpig)

Decorrosion station: You can press Q and E to increase or decrease the laser's power and whether it is derusting or overloading depends on what is dead-center of the target reticle.

This is a bit unintuitive since the lasers just shoot in its general vicinity but you can remove tiny flecks of rust without damaging the part if you mouse over it precisely and use fast clicks.

An update on the material procurement: currently the most efficient part is LEGACY-CH/04/52/ with ~350 price and 2/2/2 yield. This means that you can basically craft any components whose price tag is greater than 1000 and save money from it.

A late game tip on how to procure materials:
Buy CH/06/12/ . Lots of them. 2/2/2 material for a base price of 2750, even cheaper if you got your rep up or bump into a discount. With this trick you can save money by creating every part greater than 4000 credit (5000 if you cannot get the CH/06/12/ down to 2000) since you will need at most 4 material of one type for any crafting.

if you jump on a wall and slide there is a chance you can lock your elevation and if your at the same level as the exit you can just fly over and done.

p.s. on a future update can you make it where you can go in the shop store anytime and it shows the requirements for the next shop equipment

@Vipes the red tiles can not be next to the violett ones. worked for me

Can't seem to get the core bench working right. Green is connected to yellow, with no violet ones connected.

Yep. "Just switch these two around, they'll never notice."
