I'm having a little issue with the launch fleet script

it seems to find servers and upload the virus correctly but for some reason it never runs the cracks on the server and nukes it for root access

my work around at the moment is to simply go crack the server my self but I will be looking into the launch fleet script vs the auto-deploy script to try and figure out why it's not executing that section of the script

Hi,

https://github.com/chrisrabe/bitburner-automation/blob/cb85943b46a040f570b1721f6b2d06a325f36220/episodes/ep31/corp-recruiter.js#L98

If you have not enough funds in your corporation the script will enter the while loop, but the business.funds will never be updated. So you should use directly corp.getCorporation().funds instead.

Thanks for all the work and the interesting guidelines!

best, Mac

I just picked up the game and stated to watch your YT series and when i was looking at this script for myself i noticed that this line can be removed to prevent a error for missing function.

Comment from colin bougie

I noticed something while going through the code that I think is an error. The number of weakenThreads should use the difference between the current security and the security threshold. Right now, it calculates the number of weaken threads necessary to go from 0 security to our threshold, which doesn't really make sense.

Fix

• Update the weaken threads calculation for launch-fleets and the new gimme-more-money script.

There was a change in how ns.stock api looked for buying and selling since this was originally written. ns.stock.sell replaced with ns.stock.sellStock and the same for the buy version.

This should help anyone who tries to clone after watching the tutorials.

Would be nice if there was a list, folder, or something, that showed what you are currently using in your playthrough since some of the older, yet stable, scripts are no longer used/needed.

it says devtools.js@home (PID - 12)

Cannot read properties of undefined (reading 'toDevMenu') stack: TypeError: Cannot read properties of undefined (reading 'toDevMenu') at Module.main (home/devtools.js:5:15) at executeJSScript (file:///C:/Program%20Files%20(x86)/Steam/steamapps/common/Bitburner/resources/app/dist/main.bundle.js:19:101335)

Game Plan

• Need to run it in my own game to see the error
• Investigate if this exploit is still the same
• Look into adding optional chain to make it safer

Background

I initially started the Bitburner Youtube series to help people get started with the game quickly. Never have I anticipated for it to gain the amount of views and engagement it currently has, or expected myself to be explaining intricate details of the code.

The more that I create videos and answer problems within the comment section, the more I realise that there's a gap in the amount of support provided for the game. Since we're all playing the same game and solving the same problems, then it makes sense for Bitburner players to have a central place to refer to for scripts.

There's a lot of players posting their Github links on Reddit, Discord or Steam, but I couldn't find a place that's dedicated to compile all of these resources together.

I decided that it might be valuable to make this repository as a "one stop shop" for all scripts created by myself and other players. I want to encourage anyone that's watching my videos to contribute in this repository and share their scripts for the benefit of everyone else playing that game.

Software development is a collaborative activity after all.

Changes needed

The folders will be shuffled into the following structure

root
 |- _stable
 |- episodes
      |- ep1
      |- ep2
      |- ...
 |- community
       |- README.md
       |- user1
       |- user2
       |- 

|Folder | Purpose | |:------ | :------ | | _stable | Contains stable version of the scripts I use in my videos. Contains bug fixes for issues raised by the community | | episodes | Contains folders containing scripts that were created at the creation of the episodes. Subject to change due to bugs | | community | Contains folders that were created by other players and references to other Github repositories that can be used as references |

Background

Viewer contacted me via email telling me that they used a fixed value that acts as a "reserved RAM" for the home server rather than specifying the percentage. I think this is a good idea.

Changes required

• Update gimme-more-money script to support the reserved RAM value
• Update validation on the gimme-more-money to ensure that reserved RAM isn't above the (max server RAM - gimme more money RAM)
• Update ship allocation calculation for home server

Problems or enhancements

• Dependencies can change and may unintentionally affect the launch-fleets script
• The launch fleets script doesn't include the home server's RAM.
• pirate.js can be maximised by splitting into individual components

Acceptance Criteria

• Launch fleets can be copied across the game without having to copy other dependencies
• Launch fleets can be used with an optional parameter to utilise some or all the home server's RAM
• Individual hacking components are split into their own scripts to maximise resources

When trying to utilize the launch-fleets.js script im running into a runtime error "

could you help me out on this?

Comment from Sivade

Hi CS, you're doing great work with these videos and tutorials. I'm doing my best to follow your scripting but I'm a novice in all things javascript still.

I wanted to ask if there is a way to alter or allow for the auto-starter.js to utilize some of the Home Server ram. I feel like it should be possible to factor some of our Home Server computing power in the start up, since that gives us a clear advantage, especially when we have a good amount of ram after our first augmentation reset (or subsequent resets). Is it tricky to allocate some of our Home Server ram into the Auto-Starter.js?

Comment from InfiniteTrial:

Its true that your servers are under 100% but a lot of it is just dead weight.

Let's say you have one server with 2048GB RAM and three scripts hack.js, weaken.js and grow.js that each only contain their respective command.
pirate.js needs 2GB of RAM
hack.js needs 1.7GB,
weaken.js and grow.js both need 1.75GB

On that server you could run one of the following:
1024 x pirate.js for 100% load,
1204 x hack.js for 99.94% load, or
1170 x weaken.js (or grow.js) for 99.98% load.

In that scenario you would loose up to 15% of actual workpower, depending on which skript you run.
It gets only worse when the server size increases.
It would be more efficient to split pirate.js into its components and only call the one that s needed at the moment.
