2017-09-26 04:44:33 +02:00
"For certain actions such as attacking, scanning, and weakening, the Node performing the action must have a target. To target " +
"another node, simply click-and-drag from the 'source' Node to a target. A Node can only have one target, and you can target " +
"any Node that is adjacent to one of your Nodes (immediately above, below, or to the side. NOT diagonal). Furthermore, only CPU Cores and Transfer Nodes " +
2017-12-07 04:45:47 +01:00
"can target, since they are the only ones that can perform the related actions. To remove a target, you can simply click on the line that represents " +

"or press 'd'.<br><br>" +
"Other Notes:<br><br>" +

TutorialNetworkingText: "Servers are a central part of the game. You start with a single personal server (your home computer) " +
"and you can purchase additional servers as you progress through the game. Connecting to other servers " +
"and hacking them can be a major source of income and experience. Servers can also be used to run " +
"scripts which can automatically hack servers for you. <br><br>" +
"In order to navigate between machines, use the 'scan' or 'scan-analyze' Terminal command to see all servers " +
"that are reachable from your current server. Then, you can use the 'connect [hostname/ip]' " +
"command to connect to one of the available machines. <br><br>" +

TutorialHackingText: "In the year 2077, currency has become digital and decentralized. People and corporations " +
"store their money on servers. By hacking these servers, you can steal their money and gain " +
"experience. <br><br>" +
"<h1>Gaining root access</h1> <br>" +
"The key to hacking a server is to gain root access to that server. This can be done using " +
"the NUKE virus (NUKE.exe). You start the game with a copy of the NUKE virus on your home " +
"computer. The NUKE virus attacks the target server's open ports using buffer overflow " +
"exploits. When successful, you are granted root administrative access to the machine. <br><br>" +
"Typically, in order for the NUKE virus to succeed, the target server needs to have at least " +
2017-04-05 23:09:37 +02:00
"one of its ports opened. Some servers have no security and will not need any ports opened. Some " +
"will have very high security and will need many ports opened. In order to open ports on another " +
2017-04-05 23:09:37 +02:00
"server, you will need to run programs that attack the server to open specific ports. These programs " +
"can be coded once your hacking skill gets high enough, or they can be purchased if you can find " +
"a seller. <br><br>" +
"In order to determine how many ports need to be opened to successfully NUKE a server, connect to " +
"that server and run the 'analyze' command. This will also show you which ports have already been " +
"opened. <br><br>" +
"Once you have enough ports opened and have ran the NUKE virus to gain root access, the server " +
"can then be hacked by simply calling the 'hack' command through terminal, or by using a script.<br><br>" +
"<h1>Hacking mechanics</h1><br>" +
"When you execute the hack command, either manually through the terminal or automatically through " +
"a script, you attempt to hack the server. This action takes time. The more advanced a server's " +
"security is, the more time it will take. Your hacking skill level also affects the hacking time, " +
"with a higher hacking skill leading to shorter hacking times. Also, running the hack command " +
"manually through terminal is faster than hacking from a script. <br><br>" +
"Your attempt to hack a server will not always succeed. The chance you have to successfully hack a " +
"server is also determined by the server's security and your hacking skill level. Even if your " +
"hacking attempt is unsuccessful, you will still gain experience points. <br><br>" +
"When you successfully hack a server. You steal a certain percentage of that server's total money. This " +
"percentage is determined by the server's security and your hacking skill level. The amount of money " +
2017-04-12 04:05:21 +02:00
"on a server is not limitless. So, if you constantly hack a server and deplete its money, then you will " +
"encounter diminishing returns in your hacking (since you are only hacking a certain percentage). You can " +
"increase the amount of money on a server using a script and the grow() function in Netscript.<br><br>" +
"<h1>Server Security</h1><br>" +
2017-09-19 20:38:03 +02:00
"Each server has a security level, typically between 1 and 100. A higher number means the server has stronger security. " +
"It is possible for a server to have a security level of 100 or higher, in which case hacking that server " +
"will become impossible (0% chance to hack).<br><br>" +
"As mentioned above, a server's security level is an important factor " +
"to consider when hacking. You can check a server's security level using the 'analyze' command, although this " +
"only gives an estimate (with 5% uncertainty). You can also check a server's security in a script, using the " +
"<i>getServerSecurityLevel(server)</i> function in Netscript. See the Netscript documentation for more details. " +
"This function will give you an exact value for a server's security. <br><br>" +
"Whenever a server is hacked manually or through a script, its security level increases by a small amount. Calling " +
"the grow() command in a script will also increase security level of the target server. These actions will " +
"make it harder for you to hack the server, and decrease the amount of money you can steal. You can lower a " +
"server's security level in a script using the <i>weaken(server)</i> function in Netscript. See the Netscript " +
"documentation for more details.<br><br>" +
"A server has a minimum security level that is equal to one third of its starting security, rounded to the " +
"nearest integer. To be more precise:<br><br>" +
"server.minSecurityLevel = Math.max(1, Math.round(server.startingSecurityLevel / 3))<br><br>" +
"This means that a server's security will not fall below this value if you are trying to weaken it.",
TutorialScriptsText: "Scripts can be used to automate the hacking process. Scripts must be written in the Netscript language. " +
"Documentation about the Netscript language can be found in the 'Netscript Programming Language' " +
"section of this 'Tutorial' page. <br><br> " +
"<strong>It is highly recommended that you have a basic background in programming to start writing scripts. " +
"You by no means need to be an expert. All you need is some familiarity with basic programming " +
"constructs like for/while loops, if statements, " +
"functions, variables, etc. The Netscript programming language most resembles the Javascript language. " +
"Therefore, a good beginner's programming tutorial to read might be <a href='https://www.w3schools.com/js/default.asp' target='_blank'>" +
"this one</a>. Note that while the Netscript language is similar to Javascript, it is not the exact same, so the " +
"syntax will vary a little bit. </strong> <br><br>" +
"Running a script requires RAM. The more complex a script is, the more RAM " +
"it requires to run. Scripts can be run on any server you have root access to. <br><br>" +
"Here are some Terminal commands that are useful when working with scripts: <br><br>" +
"<i>check [script] [args...]</i><br>Prints the logs of the script specified by the name and arguments to Terminal. Arguments should be separated " +
"by a space. Note that scripts are uniquely " +
"identified by their arguments as well as their name. For example, if you ran a script 'foo.script' with the argument 'foodnstuff' then in order to 'check' it you must " +
"also add the 'foodnstuff' argument to the check command as so: <br>check foo.script foodnstuff<br><br>" +
"<i>free</i><br>Shows the current server's RAM usage and availability <br><br>" +
"<i>kill [script] [args...]</i><br>Stops a script that is running with the specified script name and arguments. " +
"Arguments should be separated by a space. Note that " +
"scripts are uniquely identified by their arguments as well as their name. For example, if you ran a script 'foo.script' with the " +
"argument 1 and 2, then just typing 'kill foo.script' will not work. You have to use 'kill foo.script 1 2'. <br><br>" +
"<i>mem [script] [-t] [n]</i><br>Check how much RAM a script requires to run with n threads<br><br>" +
"<i>nano [script]</i><br>Create/Edit a script. The name of the script must end with the '.script' extension <br><br>" +
"<i>ps</i><br>Displays all scripts that are actively running on the current server<br><br>" +
"<i>rm [script]</i><br>Delete a script<br><br>" +
"<i>run [script] [-t] [n] [args...]</i><br>Run a script with n threads and the specified arguments. Each argument should be separated by a space. " +
"Both the arguments and thread specification are optional. If neither are specified, then the script will be run single-threaded with no arguments.<br>" +
"Examples:<br>run foo.script<br>The command above will run 'foo.script' single-threaded with no arguments." +
"<br>run foo.script -t 10<br>The command above will run 'foo.script' with 10 threads and no arguments." +
"<br>run foo.script foodnstuff sigma-cosmetics 10<br>The command above will run 'foo.script' single-threaded with three arguments: [foodnstuff, sigma-cosmetics, 10]" +

"<i>tail [script] [args...]</i><br>Displays the logs of the script specified by the name and arguments. Note that scripts are uniquely " +
"identified by their arguments as well as their name. For example, if you ran a script 'foo.script' with the argument 'foodnstuff' then in order to 'tail' it you must " +

"<u><h1> Multithreading scripts </h1></u><br>" +
"Scripts can be multithreaded. A multithreaded script runs the script's code once in each thread. The result is that " +
"every call to the hack(), grow(), and weaken() Netscript functions will have its effect multiplied by the number of threads. " +
"For example, if a normal single-threaded script is able to hack $10,000, then running the same script with 5 threads would " +
2017-06-11 08:52:52 +02:00
"yield $50,000. <br><br> " +
"When multithreading a script, the total RAM cost can be calculated by simply multiplying the base RAM cost of the script " +
"with the number of threads, where the base cost refers to the amount of RAM required to run the script single-threaded. " +
"In the terminal, you can run the " +
"'mem [scriptname] -t n' command to see how much RAM a script requires with n threads. <br><br>" +
"Every method for running a script has an option for making it multihreaded. To run a script with " +
"n threads from a Terminal: <br>" +
"run [scriptname] -t n<br><br>" +
"Using Netscript commands: <br>" +
"run('scriptname.script', n);<br> " +
"exec('scriptname.script, 'targetServer', n);<br><br>" +
"<u><h1> Notes about how scripts work offline </h1> </u><br>" +
"<strong> The scripts that you write and execute are interpreted in Javascript. For this " +
"reason, it is not possible for these scripts to run while offline (when the game is closed). " +
"It is important to note that for this reason, conditionals such as if/else statements and certain " +
"commands such as purchaseHacknetNode() or nuke() will not work while the game is offline.<br><br>" +
"However, Scripts WILL continue to generate money and hacking exp for you while the game is offline. This " +
"offline production is based off of the scripts' production while the game is online. <br><br>" +
"grow() and weaken() are two Netscript commands that will also be applied when the game is offline, although at a slower rate " +
"compared to if the game was open. This is done by having each script keep track of the " +
"rate at which the grow() and weaken() commands are called when the game is online. These calculated rates are used to determine how many times " +
"these function calls would be made while the game is offline. <br><br> " +
"Also, note that because of the way the Netscript interpreter is implemented, " +
"whenever you reload or re-open the game all of the scripts that you are running will " +
"start running from the BEGINNING of the code. The game does not keep track of where exactly " +
"the execution of a script is when it saves/loads. </strong><br><br>",

TutorialTravelingText:"There are six major cities in the world that you are able to travel to: <br><br> " +
" Aevum<br>" +
" Chongqing<br>" +
" Sector-12<br>" +
" New Tokyo<br>" +
" Ishima<br>" +
" Volhaven<br><br>" +
"To travel between cities, visit your current city's travel agency through the 'World' page. " +
"From the travel agency you can travel to any other city. Doing so costs money. <br><br>" +
"Each city has its own set of companies and unique locations. Also, certain content is only available to you " +
"if you are in certain cities, so get exploring!",
TutorialCompaniesText: "Hacking is not the only way to gain money and experience! Located around the world are many " +
"different companies which you can work for. By working for a company you can earn money, " +
"train your various labor skills, and unlock powerful passive perks. <br><br> " +
"To apply for a job, visit the company you want to work for through the 'World' menu. The company " +
"page will have options that let you apply to positions in the company. There might be several different " +
"positions you can apply for, ranging from software engineer to business analyst to security officer. <br><br> " +
"When you apply for a job, you will get the offer if your stats are high enough. Your first position at " +
"a company will be an entry-level position such as 'intern'. Once you get the job, an button will appear on " +
"the company page that allows you to work for the company. Click this button to start working. <br><br>" +
"Working occurs in 8 hour shifts. Once you start working, you will begin earning money, experience, " +
"and reputation. The rate at which you money and experience depends on the company and your position. " +
"The amount of reputation you gain for your company is based on your job performance, which is affected by " +
"your stats. Different positions value different stats. When you are working, you are unable to perform any " +
"other actions such as using your terminal or visiting other locations (However, note that any scripts you have " +
"running on servers will continue to run as you work!). It is possible to cancel your work shift before the " +
"8 hours is up. However, if you have a full-time job, then cancelling a shift early will result in you gaining " +
"only half of the reputation " +
"that you had earned up to that point. There are also part-time/consultant jobs available where you will not " +
" be penalized if you cancel a work shift early. However, these positions pay less than full-time positions.<br><br>" +
"As you continue to work at a company, you will gain more and more reputation at that company. When your stats " +
"and reputation are high enough, you can get a promotion. You can apply for a promotion on the company page, just like " +
"you applied for the job originally. Higher positions at a company provide better salaries and stat gains.<br><br>" +
"<h1>Infiltrating Companies</h1><br>" +
"Many companies have facilities that you can attempt to infiltrate. By infiltrating, you can steal classified company secrets " +
"and then sell these for money or for faction reputation. To try and infiltrate a company, visit a company through the " +
"'World' menu. There will be an option that says 'Infiltrate Company'. <br><br>" +
"When infiltrating a company, you must progress through clearance levels in the facility. Every clearance level " +
"has some form of security that you must get past. There are several forms of security, ranging from high-tech security systems to " +
"armed guards. For each form of security, there are a variety of options that you can choose to try and bypass the security. Examples " +
"include hacking the security, engaging in combat, assassination, or sneaking past the security. The chance to succeed for each option " +
"is determined in part by your stats. So, for example, trying to hack the security system relies on your hacking skill, whereas trying to " +
"sneak past the security relies on your agility level.<br><br>" +
"The facility has a 'security level' that affects your chance of success when trying to get past a clearance level. " +
"Every time you advance to the next clearance level, the facility's security level will increase by a fixed amount. Furthermore " +
"the options you choose and whether you succeed or fail will affect the security level as well. For example, " +
"if you try to kill a security guard and fail, the security level will increase by a lot. If you choose to sneak past " +
"security and succeed, the security level will not increase at all. <br><br>" +
"Every 5 clearance levels, you will steal classified company secrets that can be sold for money or faction reputation. However, " +
"in order to sell these secrets you must successfully escape the facility using the 'Escape' option. Furthermore, companies have " +
"a max clearance level. If you reach the max clearance level you will automatically escape the facility with all of your " +
"stolen secrets.<br><br>",

TutorialFactionsText: "Throughout the game you may receive invitations from factions. There are many different factions, and each faction " +
"has different criteria for determining its potential members. Joining a faction and furthering its cause is crucial " +
"to progressing in the game and unlocking endgame content. <br><br> " +
2017-04-11 15:45:56 +02:00
"It is possible to join multiple factions if you receive invitations from them. However, note that joining a faction " +
"may prevent you from joining other rival factions. <br><br> " +
"The 'Factions' link on the menu brings up a list of all factions that you have joined. " +
"You can select a Faction on this list to go to that Faction page. This page displays general " +
"information about the Faction and also lets you perform work for the faction. " +
"Working for a Faction is similar to working for a company except that you don't get paid a salary. " +
"You will only earn reputation in your Faction and train your stats. Also, cancelling work early " +
"when working for a Faction does NOT result in reduced experience/reputation earnings. <br><br>" +
"Earning reputation for a Faction unlocks powerful Augmentations. Purchasing and installing these Augmentations will " +
"upgrade your abilities. The Augmentations that are available to unlock vary from faction to faction.",
TutorialAugmentationsText: "Advances in science and medicine have lead to powerful new technologies that allow people to augment themselves " +
"beyond normal human capabilities. There are many different types of Augmentations, ranging from cybernetic to " +
"genetic to biological. Acquiring these Augmentations enhances the user's physical and mental faculties. <br><br>" +
"Because of how powerful these Augmentations are, the technology behind them is kept private and secret by the " +
"corporations and organizations that create them. Therefore, the only way for the player to obtain Augmentations is " +
"through Factions. After joining a Faction and earning enough reputation in it, you will be able to purchase " +
"its Augmentations. Different Factions offer different Augmentations. Augmentations must be purchased in order to be installed, " +
"and they are fairly expensive. <br><br>" +
"When you purchase an Augmentation, the price of purchasing another Augmentation increases by 90%. This multiplier stacks for " +
"each Augmentation you purchase. You will not gain the benefits of your purchased Augmentations until you install them. You can " +
"choose to install Augmentations through the 'Augmentations' menu tab. Once you install your purchased Augmentations, " +
"their costs are reset back to the original price.<br><br>" +
"Unfortunately, installing Augmentations has side effects. You will lose most of the progress you've made, including your " +
"skills, stats, and money. You will have to start over, but you will have all of the Augmentations you have installed to " +
"help you progress. <br><br> " +
"To summarize, here is a list of everything you will LOSE when you install an Augmentation: <br><br>" +
"Stats/Skills<br>" +
"Money<br>" +
"Scripts on all servers EXCEPT your home computer<br>" +
"Purchased servers<br>" +
"Hacknet Nodes<br>" +
"Company/faction reputation<br>" +
"Jobs and Faction memberships<br>" +
"Programs<br>" +
"Stocks<br>" +
"TOR router<br><br>" +
"Here is everything you will KEEP when you install an Augmentation: <br><br>" +
"Every Augmentation you have installed<br>" +
"Scripts on your home computer<br>" +
