TutorialGettingStartedText: "Todo...",
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.
" +
"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.
" +
"The 'hostname' and 'ifconfig' commands can be used to display the hostname/IP of the " +
"server you are currently connected to.",
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.
" +
"Gaining root access
" +
"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.
" +
"Typically, in order for the NUKE virus to succeed, the target server needs to have at least " +
"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 " +
"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.
" +
"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.
" +
"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.
" +
"Hacking mechanics
" +
"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.
" +
"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.
" +
"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 " +
"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.
" +
"Server Security
" +
"Each server has a security level, which is denoted by a number between 1 and 100. A higher number means " +
"the server has stronger security. 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 " +
"getServerSecurityLevel(server) function in Netscript. See the Netscript documentation for more details. " +
"This function will give you an exact value for a server's security.
" +
"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 weaken(server) function in Netscript. See the Netscript " +
"documentation for more details",
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.
" +
"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 " +
"this one. Note that while the Netscript language is similar to Javascript, it is not the exact same, so the " +
"syntax will vary a little bit.
" +
"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.
" +
"Here are some Terminal commands that are useful when working with scripts:
" +
"check [script] [args...]
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:
check foo.script foodnstuff
" +
"free
Shows the current server's RAM usage and availability
" +
"kill [script] [args...]
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'.
" +
"mem [script] [-t] [n]
Check how much RAM a script requires to run with n threads
" +
"nano [script]
Create/Edit a script. The name of the script must end with the '.script' extension
" +
"ps
Displays all scripts that are actively running on the current server
" +
"rm [script]
Delete a script
" +
"run [script] [-t] [n] [args...]
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.
" +
"Examples:
run foo.script
The command above will run 'foo.script' single-threaded with no arguments." +
"
run foo.script -t 10
The command above will run 'foo.script' with 10 threads and no arguments." +
"
run foo.script foodnstuff sigma-cosmetics 10
The command above will run 'foo.script' single-threaded with three arguments: [foodnstuff, sigma-cosmetics, 10]" +
"
run foo.script -t 50 foodnstuff
The command above will run 'foo.script' with 50 threads and a single argument: [foodnstuff]
" +
"tail [script] [args...]
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 " +
"also add the 'foodnstuff' argument to the tail command as so:
tail foo.script foodnstuff
" +
"top
Displays all active scripts and their RAM usage
" +
" Multithreading scripts
" +
"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 scripts. " +
"For example, if a normal single-threaded script is able to hack $10,000, then running the same script with 5 threads would " +
"yield $50,000.
" +
"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.
" +
"Every method for running a script has an option for making it multihreaded. To run a script with " +
"n threads from a Terminal:
" +
"run [scriptname] -t n
" +
"Using Netscript commands:
" +
"run('scriptname.script', n);
" +
"exec('scriptname.script, 'targetServer', n);
" +
" Notes about how scripts work offline
" +
" 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.
" +
"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.
" +
"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.
" +
"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.
",
TutorialNetscriptText: "Netscript is a programming language implemented for this game. The language has " +
"your basic programming constructs and several built-in commands that are used to hack.
" +
"Official Wiki and Documentation
" +
"Check out Bitburner's wiki for the official Netscript documentation" +
". The wiki documentation will contain more details and " +
"code examples than this documentation page. Also, it can be opened up in another tab/window for convenience!
" +
" Variables and data types
" +
"The following data types are supported by Netscript:
" +
"numeric - Integers and floats (eg. 6, 10.4999)
" +
"string - Encapsulated by single or double quotes (eg. 'this is a string')
" +
"boolean - true or false
" +
"To create a variable, use the assign (=) operator. The language is not strongly typed. Examples:
" +
"i = 5;
" +
"s = 'this game is awesome!';
" +
"In the first example above, we are creating the variable i and assigning it a value of 5. In the second, " +
"we are creating the variable s and assigning it the value of a string. Note that all expressions must be " +
"ended with a semicolon.
" +
" Operators
" +
"The following operators are supported by Netscript:
" +
" +
" +
" -
" +
" *
" +
" /
" +
" %
" +
" &&
" +
" ||
" +
" <
" +
" >
" +
" <=
" +
" >=
" +
" ==
" +
" !=
" +
" Arrays
" +
"Netscript arrays have the same properties and functions as javascript arrays. For information see javascripts array documentation.
"+
" Script Arguments
" +
"Arguments passed into a script can be accessed using a special array called 'args'. The arguments can be accessed like a normal array using the [] " +
"operator. (args[0], args[1], args[2]...)
" +
"For example, let's say we want to make a generic script 'generic-run.script' and we plan to pass two arguments into that script. The first argument will be the name of " +
"another script, and the second argument will be a number. This generic script will run the script specified in the first argument " +
"with the amount of threads specified in the second element. The code would look like:
" +
"run(args[0], args[1]);
" +
"It is also possible to get the number of arguments that was passed into a script using:
" +
"args.length
" +
"Note that none of the other functions that typically work with arrays, such as remove(), insert(), clear(), etc., will work on the " +
"args array.
" +
" Functions
" +
"You can NOT define you own functions in Netscript (yet), but there are several built in functions that " +
"you may use:
" +
"hack(hostname/ip)
Core function that is used to try and hack servers to steal money and gain hacking experience. The argument passed in must be a string with " +
"either the IP or hostname of the server you want to hack. The runtime for this command depends on your hacking level and the target server's security level. " +
" A script can hack a server from anywhere. It does not need to be running on the same server to hack that server. " +
"For example, you can create a script that hacks the 'foodnstuff' server and run that script on any server in the game. A successful hack() on " +
"a server will raise that server's security level by 0.002. Returns true if the hack is successful and " +
"false otherwise.
" +
"Examples: hack('foodnstuff'); or hack('148.192.0.12');
" +
"sleep(n, log=true)
Suspends the script for n milliseconds. The second argument is an optional boolean that indicates " +
"whether or not the function should log the sleep action. If this argument is true, then calling this function will write " +
"'Sleeping for N milliseconds' to the script's logs. If it's false, then this function will not log anything. " +
"If this argument is not specified then it will be true by default.
Example: sleep(5000);
" +
"grow(hostname/ip)
Use your hacking skills to increase the amount of money available on a server. The argument passed in " +
"must be a string with either the IP or hostname of the target server. The runtime for this command depends on your hacking level and the target server's security level. " +
"When grow() completes, the money available on a target server will be increased by a certain, fixed percentage. This percentage " +
"is determined by the server's growth rate and varies between servers. Generally, higher-level servers have higher growth rates.
" +
"Like hack(), grow() can be called on any server, regardless of where the script is running. " +
"The grow() command requires root access to the target server, but there is no required hacking level to run the command. " +
"It also raises the security level of the target server by 0.004. " +
"Returns the number by which the money on the server was multiplied for the growth. " +
"Works offline at a slower rate.
Example: grow('foodnstuff');
" +
"weaken(hostname/ip)
Use your hacking skills to attack a server's security, lowering the server's security level. The argument passed " +
"in must be a string with either the IP or hostname of the target server. The runtime for this command depends on your " +
"hacking level and the target server's security level. This function lowers the security level of the target server by " +
"0.05.
Like hack() and grow(), weaken() can be called on " +
"any server, regardless of where the script is running. This command requires root access to the target server, but " +
"there is no required hacking level to run the command. Returns " +
"0.1. Works offline at a slower rate
Example: weaken('foodnstuff');
" +
"print(x)
Prints a value or a variable to the scripts logs (which can be viewed with the 'tail [script]' terminal command ).
" +
"clearLog()
Clears the script's logs.
" +
"scan(hostname/ip)
Returns an array containing the hostnames of all servers that are one node away from the specified server. " +
"The argument must be a string containing the IP or hostname of the target server. The hostnames in the returned array are strings.
" +
"nuke(hostname/ip)
Run NUKE.exe on the target server. NUKE.exe must exist on your home computer. Does NOT work while offline
Example: nuke('foodnstuff');
" +
"brutessh(hostname/ip)
Run BruteSSH.exe on the target server. BruteSSH.exe must exist on your home computer. Does NOT work while offline
Example: brutessh('foodnstuff');
" +
"ftpcrack(hostname/ip)
Run FTPCrack.exe on the target server. FTPCrack.exe must exist on your home computer. Does NOT work while offline
Example: ftpcrack('foodnstuff');
" +
"relaysmtp(hostname/ip)
Run relaySMTP.exe on the target server. relaySMTP.exe must exist on your home computer. Does NOT work while offline
Example: relaysmtp('foodnstuff');
" +
"httpworm(hostname/ip)
Run HTTPWorm.exe on the target server. HTTPWorm.exe must exist on your home computer. Does NOT work while offline
Example: httpworm('foodnstuff');
" +
"sqlinject(hostname/ip)
Run SQLInject.exe on the target server. SQLInject.exe must exist on your home computer. Does NOT work while offline
Example: sqlinject('foodnstuff');
" +
"run(script, [numThreads], [args...])
Run a script as a separate process. The first argument that is passed in is the name of the script as a string. This function can only " +
"be used to run scripts located on the current server (the server running the script that calls this function). The second argument " +
"is optional, and it specifies how many threads to run the script with. This argument must be a number greater than 0. If it is omitted, then the script will be run single-threaded. Any additional arguments will specify " +
"arguments to pass into the new script that is being run. If arguments are specified for the new script, then the second argument numThreads argument must be filled in with a value.
" +
"Returns true if the script is successfully started, and false otherwise. Requires a significant amount " +
"of RAM to run this command. Does NOT work while offline
" +
"The simplest way to use the run command is to call it with just the script name. The following example will run 'foo.script' single-threaded with no arguments:
" +
"run('foo.script');
" +
"The following example will run 'foo.script' but with 5 threads instead of single-threaded:
" +
"run('foo.script', 5);
" +
"The following example will run 'foo.script' single-threaded, and will pass the string 'foodnstuff' into the script as an argument:
" +
"run('foo.script', 1, 'foodnstuff');
" +
"exec(script, hostname/ip, [numThreads], [args...])
Run a script as a separate process on another server. The first argument is the name of the script as a string. The " +
"second argument is a string with the hostname or IP of the 'target server' on which to run the script. The specified script must exist on the target server. " +
"The third argument is optional, and it specifies how many threads to run the script with. If it is omitted, then the script will be run single-threaded. " +
"This argument must be a number that is greater than 0. Any additional arguments will specify arguments to pass into the new script that is being run. If " +
"arguments are specified for the new script, then the third argument numThreads must be filled in with a value.
Returns " +
"true if the script is successfully started, and false otherwise. Does NOT work while offline
" +
"The simplest way to use the exec command is to call it with just the script name and the target server. The following example will try to run 'generic-hack.script' " +
"on the 'foodnstuff' server:
" +
"exec('generic-hack.script', 'foodnstuff');
" +
"The following example will try to run the script 'generic-hack.script' on the 'joesguns' server with 10 threads:
" +
"exec('generic-hack.script', 'joesguns', 10);
" +
"The following example will try to run the script 'foo.script' on the 'foodnstuff' server with 5 threads. It will also pass the number 1 and the string 'test' in as arguments " +
"to the script.
" +
"exec('foo.script', 'foodnstuff', 5, 1, 'test');
" +
"kill(script, hostname/ip, [args...])
Kills the script on the target server specified by the script's name and arguments. Remember that " +
"scripts are uniquely identified by both their name and arguments. For example, if 'foo.script' is run with the argument 1, then this is not the " +
"same as 'foo.script' run with the argument 2, even though they have the same code.
" +
"The first argument must be a string with the name of the script. The name is case-sensitive. " +
"The second argument must be a string with the hostname or IP of the target server. Any additional arguments to the function will specify the arguments passed " +
"into the script that should be killed.
The function will try to kill the specified script on the target server. " +
"If the script is found on the specified server and is running, then it will be killed and this function " +
"will return true. Otherwise, this function will return false.
" +
"Examples:
" +
"If you are trying to kill a script named 'foo.script' on the 'foodnstuff' server that was ran with no arguments, use this:
" +
"kill('foo.script', 'foodnstuff');
" +
"If you are trying to kill a script named 'foo.script' on the current server that was ran with no arguments, use this:
" +
"kill('foo.script', getHostname());
" +
"If you are trying to kill a script named 'foo.script' on the current server that was ran with the arguments 1 and 'foodnstuff', use this:
" +
"kill('foo.script', getHostname(), 1, 'foodnstuff');
" +
"killall(hostname/ip)
Kills all running scripts on the specified server. This function takes a single argument which " +
"must be a string containing the hostname or IP of the target server. This function will always return true.
" +
"scp(script, hostname/ip)
Copies a script to another server. The first argument is a string with the filename of the script " +
"to be copied. The second argument is a string with the hostname or IP of the destination server. Returns true if the script is successfully " +
"copied over and false otherwise.
Example: scp('hack-template.script', 'foodnstuff');

Returns the security level of a server. The argument passed in must be a string with either the " +
"hostname or IP of the target server. A server's security is denoted by a number between 1 and 100. Does NOT work while offline.
" +
"getServerBaseSecurityLevel(hostname/ip)
Returns the base security level of a server. This is the security level that the server starts out with. " +
"This is different than getServerSecurityLevel() because getServerSecurityLevel() returns the current security level of a server, which can constantly change " +
"due to hack(), grow(), and weaken() calls on that server. The base security level will stay the same until you reset by installing an Augmentation.
" +
"The argument passed in must be a string with either the hostname or IP of the target server. A server's base security is denoted by a number between 1 and 100. " +
"Does NOT work while offline.

"fileExists(filename, [hostname/ip])
Returns a boolean (true or false) indicating whether the specified file exists on a server. " +
"The first argument must be a string with the name of the file. A file can either be a script or a program. A script name is case-sensitive, but a " +
"program is not. For example, fileExists('brutessh.exe') will work fine, even though the actual program is named BruteSSH.exe.
" +
"The second argument is a string with the hostname or IP of the server on which to search for the program. This second argument is optional. " +
"If it is omitted, then the function will search through the current server (the server running the script that calls this function) for the file.
" +
"Example: fileExists('foo.script', 'foodnstuff');
" +
"Example: fileExists('ftpcrack.exe');
" +
"The first example above will return true if the script named 'foo.script' exists on the 'foodnstuff' server, and false otherwise. The second example above will " +
"return true if the current server (the server on which this function runs) contains the FTPCrack.exe program, and false otherwise.
" +
"isRunning(filename, hostname/ip, [args...])
Returns a boolean (true or false) indicating whether the specified script is running on a server. " +
"Remember that a script is uniquely identified by both its name and its arguments.
" +
"The first argument must be a string with the name of the script. The script name is case sensitive. The second argument is a string with the " +
"hostname or IP of the target server. Any additional arguments passed to the function will specify the arguments passed into the target script. " +
"The function will check whether the script is running on that target server.
" +
"Example: isRunning('foo.script', 'foodnstuff');

"The third example above will return true if there is a script named 'foo.script' with the arguments 1, 5, and 'test' running on the 'joesguns' server, and " +
"false otherwise.
" +
"purchaseHacknetNode()
Purchases a new Hacknet Node. Returns a number with the index of the Hacknet Node. This index is equivalent to the number " +
"at the end of the Hacknet Node's name (e.g The Hacknet Node named 'hacknet-node-4' will have an index of 4). If the player cannot afford to purchase " +
"a new Hacknet Node then the function will return false. Does NOT work offline
" +
"purchaseServer(hostname, ram)
Purchases a server with the specified hostname and amount of RAM. The first argument can be any data type, " +
"but it will be converted to a string using Javascript's String function. Anything that resolves to an empty string will cause the function to fail. " +
"The second argument specified the amount of RAM (in GB) for the server. This argument must resolve to a numeric and it must be a power of 2 " +
"(2, 4, 8, etc...).
" +
"Purchasing a server using this Netscript function is twice as expensive as manually purchasing a server from a location in the World.
" +
"This function returns the hostname of the newly purchased server as a string. If the function fails to purchase a server, then it will return " +
"an empty string. The function will fail if the arguments passed in are invalid or if the player does not have enough money to purchase the specified server.
" +
"round(n)
Rounds the number n to the nearest integer. If the argument passed in is not a number, then the function will return 0.
" +
"write(port, data)
Writes data to a port. The first argument must be a number between 1 and 10 that specifies the port. The second " +
"argument defines the data to write to the port. If the second argument is not specified then it will write an empty string to the port.
" +
"read(port)
Reads data from a port. The first argument must be a number between 1 and 10 that specifies the port. A port is a serialized queue. " +
"This function will remove the first element from the queue and return it. If the queue is empty, then the string 'NULL PORT DATA' will be returned.
" +
"Hacknet Nodes API
" +
"Netscript provides the following API for accessing and upgrading your Hacknet Nodes through scripts. This API does NOT work offline.
" +
"hacknetnodes
A special variable. This is an array that maps to the Player's Hacknet Nodes. The Hacknet Nodes are accessed through " +
"indexes. These indexes correspond to the number at the end of the name of the Hacknet Node. For example, the first Hacknet Node you purchase " +
"will have the same 'hacknet-node-0' and can be accessed with hacknetnodes[0]. The fourth Hacknet Node you purchase will have the name " +
"'hacknet-node-3' and can be accessed with hacknetnodes[3].
" +
"hacknetnodes.length
Returns the number of Hacknet Nodes that the player owns
" +
"hacknetnodes[i].level
Returns the level of the corresponding Hacknet Node
" +
"hacknetnodes[i].ram
Returns the amount of RAM on the corresponding Hacknet Node
" +
"hacknetnodes[i].cores
Returns the number of cores on the corresponding Hacknet Node
" +
"hacknetnodes[i].upgradeLevel(n)
Tries to upgrade the level of the corresponding Hacknet Node n times. The argument n must be a " +
"positive integer. Returns true if the Hacknet Node's level is successfully upgraded n times or up to the max level (200), and false otherwise.
" +
"hacknetnodes[i].upgradeRam()
Tries to upgrade the amount of RAM on the corresponding Hacknet Node. Returns true if the " +
"RAM is successfully upgraded, and false otherwise.
" +
"hacknetnodes[i].upgradeCore()
Attempts to purchase an additional core for the corresponding Hacknet Node. Returns true if the " +
"additional core is successfully purchase, and false otherwise.
" +
"Example: The following is an example of one way a script can be used to automate the purchasing and upgrading of Hacknet Nodes. " +
"This script purchases new Hacknet Nodes until the player has four. Then, it iteratively upgrades each of those four Hacknet Nodes " +
"to a level of at least 75, RAM to at least 8GB, and number of cores to at least 2.
" +
"while(hacknetnodes.length < 4) {
" +

"getStockPrice(sym)
Returns the price of a stock. The argument passed in must be the stock's symbol (NOT THE COMPANY NAME!). The symbol " +
"is a sequence of two to four capital letters. The symbol argument must be a string.
" +
"Example: getStockPrice('FSIG');
" +
"getStockPosition(sym)
Returns an array of two elements that represents the player's position in a stock. The first element " +
"in the array is the number of shares the player owns of the specified stock. The second element in the array is the average price of the player's " +
"shares. Both elements are numbers. The argument passed in must be the stock's symbol, which is a sequence of two to four capital letters.
" +
"Example:
pos = getStockPosition('ECP');
shares = pos[0];
avgPx = pos[1];
"+
"buyStock(sym, shares)
Attempts to purchase shares of a stock. The first argument must be a string with the stock's symbol. The second argument " +
"must be the number of shares to purchase.
" +
"If the player does not have enough money to purchase specified number of shares, then no shares will be purchased (it will not purchase the most you can afford). " +
"Remember that every transaction on the stock exchange costs a certain commission fee.
" +
"The function will return true if it successfully purchases the specified number of shares of stock, and false otherwise.
" +
"sellStock(sym, shares)
Attempts to sell shares of a stock. The first argument must be a string with the stock's symbol. The second argument " +
"must be the number of shares to sell.
" +
"If the specified number of shares in the function exceeds the amount that the player actually owns, then this function will sell all owned shares. " +
"Remember that every transaction on the stock exchange costs a certain commission fee.
" +
"The net profit made from selling stocks with this function is reflected in the script's statistics. This net profit is calculated as:
" +
"shares * (sell price - average price of purchased shares)
" +
"This function will return true if the shares of stock are successfully sold and false otherwise.
" +
"While loops
" +
"A while loop is a control flow statement that repeatedly executes code as long as a condition is met.
" +
"while ([cond]) {
[code]
}
" +
"As long as [cond] remains true, the code block [code] will continuously execute. Example:
" +
"i = 0;
while (i < 10) {
hack('foodnstuff');
i = i + 1;
}
" +
"This code above repeats the 'hack('foodnstuff')' command 10 times before it stops and exits.
" +
"while(true) {
hack('foodnstuff');
}
" +
"This while loop above is an infinite loop (continuously runs until the script is manually stopped) that repeatedly runs the 'hack('foodnstuff')' command. " +
"Note that a semicolon is needed at closing bracket of the while loop, UNLESS it is at the end of the code
" +
"For loops
" +
"A for loop is another control flow statement that allows code to be repeated by iterations. The structure is:
" +
"for ([init]; [cond]; [post]) {
code
}
" +
"The [init] expression evaluates before the for loop begins. The for loop will continue to execute " +
"as long as [cond] is met. The [post] expression will evaluate at the end of every iteration " +
"of the for loop. The following example shows code that will run the 'hack('foodnstuff');' command 10 times " +
" using a for loop:
" +
"for (i = 0; i < 10; i = i++) {
hack('foodnstuff');
}
" +
" If statements
" +
"If/Else if/Else statements are conditional statements used to perform different actions based on different conditions:
" +
"if (condition1) {
code1
} else if (condition2) {
code2
} else {
" +
" code3
}
" +
"In the code above, first condition1 will be checked. If this condition is true, then code1 will execute and the " +
"rest of the if/else if/else statement will be skipped. If condition1 is NOT true, then the code will then go on to check " +
"condition2. If condition2 is true, then code2 will be executed, and the rest of the if/else if/else statement " +
"will be skipped. If none of the conditions are true, then the code within the else block (code3) will be executed. " +
"Note that a conditional statement can have any number of 'else if' statements.
" +
"Example:
" +
"if(getServerMoneyAvailable('foodnstuff') > 200000) {
hack('foodnstuff');
" +
"} else {
grow('foodnstuff');
}
" +
"The code above will use the getServerMoneyAvailable() function to check how much money there is on the 'foodnstuff' server. " +
"If there is more than $200,000, then it will try to hack that server. If there is $200,000 or less on the server, " +
"then the code will call grow('foodnstuff') instead and add more money to the server.

TutorialTravelingText:"There are six major cities in the world that you are able to travel to:
" +
" Aevum
" +
" Chongqing
" +
" Sector-12
" +
" New Tokyo
" +
" Ishima
" +
" Volhaven
" +
"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.
" +
"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.
" +
"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.
" +
"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.
" +
"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.
" +
"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.
" +
"Infiltrating Companies
" +
"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'.
" +
"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.
" +
"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.
" +
"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.
",
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.
" +
"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.
" +
"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.
" +
"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.
" +
"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.
" +
"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.
" +
"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.
" +
"To summarize, here is a list of everything you will LOSE when you install an Augmentation:
" +
"Stats/Skills
" +
"Money
" +
"Scripts on all servers EXCEPT your home computer
" +
"Purchased servers
" +
"Hacknet Nodes
" +
"Company/faction reputation
" +
"Jobs and Faction memberships
" +
"Programs
" +
"Stocks
" +
"TOR router
" +
"Here is everything you will KEEP when you install an Augmentation:
" +
"Every Augmentation you have installed
" +
"Scripts on your home computer
" +
"RAM Upgrades on your home computer
" +
"World Stock Exchange account and TIX API Access

LatestUpdate:
"v0.26.0
" +
"-Game now has a real ending, although it's not very interesting/satisfying right now. It sets up the framework for the secondary prestige system " +
"in the future
" +
"-Forgot to mention that since last update, comments now work in Netscript. Use // for single line comments or /* and */ for multiline comments " +
"just like in Javascript
" +
"-Added ports to Netscript. These ports are essentially serialized queues. You can use the write() Netscript function to write a value " +
"to a queue, and then you can use the read() Netscript function to read the value from the queue. Once you read a value from the queue it will be " +
"removed. There are only 10 queues (1-10), and each has a maximum capacity of 50 entries. If you try to write to a queue that is full, the " +
"the first value is removed. See wiki/Netscript documentation for more details
" +
"-You can now use the 'help' Terminal command for specific commands
" +
"-You can now use './' to run a script/program (./NUKE.exe). However, tab completion currently doesn't work for it (I'm working on it)
" +
"-Decreased the base growth rate of servers by ~25%
" +
"-Both the effect of weaken() and its time to execute were halved. In other words, calling weaken() on a server only lowers its security by 0.05 (was 0.1 before) " +
"but the time to execute the function is half of what it was before. Therefore, the effective rate of weaken() should be about the same
" +
"-Increased all Infiltration rewards by ~10%, and increased infiltration rep gains by an additional 20% (~32% total for rep gains)
" +
"-The rate at which the security level of a facility increases during Infiltration was decreased significantly (~33%)
" +
"-Getting treated at the Hospital is now 33% more expensive
" +
"-Slightly increased the amount of time it takes to hack a server
" +
"-Slightly decreased the amount of money gained when hacking a server (~6%)
" +
"-Slightly decreased the base cost for RAM on home computer, but increased the cost multiplier. This means " +
"that upgrading RAM on the home computer should be slightly cheaper at the start, but slightly more expensive " +
"later on
" +
"-Increased the required hacking level for many late game servers
" +
"-The sleep() Netscript function now takes an optional 'log' argument that specifies whether or " +
"not the 'Sleeping for N milliseconds' will be logged for the script
" +
"-Added clearLog() Netscript function
" +
"-Deleted a few stocks. Didn't see a reason for having so many, and it just affects performance. Won't take " +
"effect until you reset by installing Augmentations
" +
"-There was a typo with Zeus Medical's server hostname. It is now 'zeus-med' rather than 'zeud-med'
" +
"-Added keyboard shortcuts to quickly navigate between different menus. See wiki link here
" +
"-Changed the Navigation Menu UI",
