Unfortunately, I haven't used most of the specialty APIs yet, so I'm not intimately familiar with where their documentation might be wrong. I figured some fixes were better than no fixes, and I can always make more fixes later. Fixes #1023.

spawn() Netscript Function
|
|
==========================
|
|
|
|
.. js:function:: spawn(script, numThreads[, args...])
|
|
|
|
:RAM cost: 2 GB
|
|
:param string script: Filename of script to execute
|
|
:param number numThreads: Number of threads to spawn new script with. Will
|
|
be rounded to nearest integer.
|
|
:param args...:
|
|
Additional arguments to pass into the new script that is being run.
|
|
|
|
Terminates the current script, and then after a delay of about 10 seconds it
|
|
will execute the newly-specified script. The purpose of this function is to
|
|
execute a new script without being constrained by the RAM usage of the
|
|
current one. This function can only be used to run scripts on the local
|
|
server.
|
|
|
|
.. warning:: Running this function with a ``numThreads`` argument of 0 or
|
|
less will cause a runtime error.
|
|
|
|
Example:
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: javascript
|
|
|
|
spawn('foo.script', 10, 'foodnstuff', 90); // "run foo.script 10 foodnstuff 90" in 10 seconds.
