|
||||
await ns.sleep(1000); // Add a 1s sleep to prevent freezing
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
Also make sure that each while loop gets to `await`ed function or `break`, for example the next snippet has a sleep
|
||||
function, but it nor any possible conditional breaks are never reached and therefore will crash the game::
|
||||
|
||||
while(true) {
|
||||
let currentMoney = ns.getServerMoneyAvailable("n00dles");
|
||||
let maxMoney = ns.getServerMaxMoney("n00dles");
|
||||
if (currentMoney < maxMoney/2){
|
||||
await ns.grow("n00dles");
|
||||
}
|
||||
if (currentMoney === maxMoney){
|
||||
break;
|
||||
}
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
If `n00dles` current money is, for example, 75% of the maximum money, the script will not reach neither `grow` nor `break` and crashes the game.
|
||||
Adding a sleep like in the first example, or changing the code so that `await`ed function or `break` is always reached, would prevent the crash.
|
||||
|
||||
Common infinite loop when translating the server purchasing script in starting guide to :ref:`netscriptjs` is to have a
|
||||
while loop, that's condition's change is conditional::
|
||||
|
||||
var ram = 8;
|
||||
var i = 0;
|
||||
|
||||
while (i < ns.getPurchasedServerLimit()) {
|
||||
if (ns.getServerMoneyAvailable("home") > ns.getPurchasedServerCost(ram)) {
|
||||
var hostname = ns.purchaseServer("pserv-" + i, ram);
|
||||
ns.scp("early-hack-template.script", hostname);
|
||||
ns.exec("early-hack-template.script", hostname, 3);
|
||||
++i;
|
||||
}
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
if player does not currently have enough money to purchase a server, the `if`'s condition will be false and `++i` will not be reached.
|
||||
Since the script doesn't have `sleep` and value `i` will not change without the `if` being true, this will crash the game. Adding a `sleep`
|
||||
that is always reached would prevent the crash.
|
||||
|
||||
Blackscreen
|
||||
-----------
|
||||
|
||||
If the game window becomes a black screen without the game itself crashing, this is caused by
|
||||
the game running too many concurrent scripts (the game runs on a browser and each tab can only
|
||||
use so much ram until it crashes). Depending on which scripts are running and your hardware,
|
||||
this number can vary between 50000 to 100000 instances (in version 2.0.2. In prior versions this number
|
||||
was about 1/5th of that). To prevent this from happening make sure to multithread the scripts as much as
|
||||
possible.

For fast progression
|

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
|

.. note:: This does not recommend the absolute fastest path, as I don't know what
|
||||
exactly the fastest path is. But it does recommend the BitNodes that are
|
||||
commonly considered to be optimal by players.
|
||||
.. note:: These paths do not recommend the absolute fastest path, since speed of progression is
|
||||
highly dependant on playing style. Path 1 is the recommended path according to the discord community.
|
||||
|
||||
Path 1 (new):
|
||||
|
||||
1. (Optional) Repeat **BitNode-1: Source Genesis** until you max out its Source-File. Its Source-File
|
||||
is extremely powerful, as it raises all multipliers by a significant amount. This also a let's you
|
||||
get used to augments and other features resetting.
|
||||
|
||||
2. Do **BitNode-3: Corporatocracy** once to unlock the Corporation mechanic. This mechanic
|
||||
has highest profit potential in the game.
|
||||
|
||||
3. Do **BitNode-10: Digital Carbon** once to unlock sleeves and grafting. Sleeves are useful in all nodes
|
||||
and grafting can be useful in future BitNodes (especially 8). It's recommended to buy all sleeves and
|
||||
their memory during the first run.
|
||||
|
||||
The ordering of the next three is dependant on playing style and wants/needs.
|
||||
|
||||
4. Do **BitNode-5: Artificial Intelligence** once or twice. The intelligence stat it unlocks
|
||||
will gradually build up as you continue to play the game, and will be helpful
|
||||
in the future. The Source-File also provides hacking multipliers, which are
|
||||
strong because hacking is typically one of the best ways of earning money.
|
||||
|
||||
5. Do **BitNode-4: The Singularity**. Its Source-File does not directly make you
|
||||
more powerful in any way, but it does unlock the `Singularity API <https://github.com/danielyxie/bitburner/blob/dev/markdown/bitburner.singularity.md>`_ which
|
||||
let you automate significantly more aspects of the game. Consider repeating until Level 3,
|
||||
since each level decreases the RAM cost of Singularity functions.
|
||||
|
||||
6. Do **BitNode-2: Rise of the Underworld** once to unlock the gang mechanic. This mechanic
|
||||
has high profit potential and offers large amounts of Augmentations in a single faction.
|
||||
Having sleeves (Source-File 10) greatly reduces the time it takes to get access to gangs
|
||||
outside this BitNode.
|
||||
|
||||
7. Do **BitNode-9: Hacktocracy** to unlock the Hacknet Server mechanic. You can
|
||||
consider repeating it as well, as its Level 2 and 3 effects are pretty helpful as well.
