@swrobel Thanks for reporting!

After some investigations, I checked that .ttf -> .otf conversion is okays.

Seems like FIRA Code v5 changed the way(standard?) to add the ligatures. That's why a portion of ligatures are affected.

Need more time to see how to fix.

According to the comment of Fira Code author, Fira code changed the way to add ligatures.

This change added lots of difficulties in extracting ligatures from Fira Code. The fastest way to get the correct Hack font patched with Fira Code is to fallback to Fira Code v3.1.
