## NS.grow() method
|
|
|
|
Spoof money in a server's bank account, increasing the amount available.
|
|
|
|
**Signature:**
|
|
|
|
```typescript
|
|
grow(host: string, opts?: BasicHGWOptions): Promise<number>;
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Parameters
|
|
|
|
| Parameter | Type | Description |
|
|
| --- | --- | --- |
|
|
| host | string | Hostname of the target server to grow. |
|
|
| opts | [BasicHGWOptions](./bitburner.basichgwoptions.md) | _(Optional)_ Optional parameters for configuring function behavior. |
|
|
|
|
**Returns:**
|
|
|
|
Promise<number>
|
|
|
|
The total effective multiplier that was applied to the server's money (after both additive and multiplicative growth).
|
|
|
|
## Remarks
|
|
|
|
RAM cost: 0.15 GB
|
|
|
|
Use your hacking skills to increase the amount of money available on a server.
|
|
|
|
Once the grow is complete, $1 is added to the server's available money for every script thread. This additive growth allows for rescuing a server even after it is emptied.
|
|
|
|
After this addition, the thread count is also used to determine a multiplier, which the server's money is then multiplied by.
|
|
|
|
The multiplier scales exponentially with thread count, and its base depends on the server's security level and in inherent "growth" statistic that varies between different servers.
|
|
|
|
[getServerGrowth](./bitburner.ns.getservergrowth.md) can be used to check the inherent growth statistic of a server.
|
|
|
|
[growthAnalyze](./bitburner.ns.growthanalyze.md) can be used to determine the number of threads needed for a specified multiplicative portion of server growth.
|
|
|
|
To determine the effect of a single grow, obtain access to the Formulas API and use [formulas.hacking.growPercent](./bitburner.hackingformulas.growpercent.md)<!-- -->, or invert [growthAnalyze](./bitburner.ns.growthanalyze.md)<!-- -->.
|
|
|
|
Like [hack](./bitburner.ns.hack.md)<!-- -->, `grow` can be called on any hackable server, regardless of where the script is running. Hackable servers are any servers not owned by the player.
|
|
|
|
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 based on the number of threads. The security increase can be determined using [growthAnalyzeSecurity](./bitburner.ns.growthanalyzesecurity.md)<!-- -->.

|
## Example
|
|
|
|
|
|
```js
|
|
let currentMoney = ns.getServerMoneyAvailable("n00dles");
|
|
currentMoney *= await ns.grow("foodnstuff");
|
|
```
