Bitburner Combat Gang management script (fully automatic)

Description

This script allows you to automatically manage a combat gang.

It takes less than 32 Gb, so can be started from your home without RAM upgrades.

Takes less than a day to win BN2 node.

It has a lot of hand-tuneable constants (i didn't tuned them well, so you can optimize the script if you find the defaults poorly balanced).

The gang member tasks can be switched manually, the script detect this and won't autoswitch them back if it finds someone switched the tasks (you can revert back to automatic if you set "Unassigned" task, or just restart the script).

Ascends, equipment and territory war are managed by the script too.

Yes, coding style is bad, it is "rapid development".
