How It Works
Bot takes the following steps.
Checks cost and production growth of all the possible upgrades
Calculates profitable ratio of each upgrade
Sorts elements by ratio descending
Chooses the first element
Checks if you can purchase upgrade now, if not, it waits to collect money
Checks if you can buy new node in less than 30 seconds (you can customize this time), if so, it buys it
Repeat...
Profitable ratio = Production growth / upgrade cost
Production growth = Production after upgrade / current production
This guide is based on my previous "Automation for Hacknet Nodes".
How To Use
Take the following steps.
Run the terminal
Type 'nano hacknet-bot.js'
Copy and paste the code below into this file
Save the file (ctrl + s)
Back to the terminal
Type 'run hacknet-bot.js'
/** @param {NS} ns **/ export async function main(ns) { // helpers const getMoney = () => ns.getPlayer().money; const getProd = (level, ram, cores) => (level * 1.5) * Math.pow(1.035, ram - 1) * ((cores + 5) / 6); // your production multiplier const PROD_MULTIPLIER = ns.getHacknetMultipliers().production; // maximum waiting time for collecting money for new node (default 30s) const WAITING_TIME = ns.args[0] || 30; while (true) { const ratios = []; let hacknetProduction = 0; // loop through all nodes for (let index = 0; index < ns.hacknet.numNodes(); index++) { // get current node stats const { level, ram, cores, production } = ns.hacknet.getNodeStats(index); hacknetProduction += production; // get upgrades cost const levelUpgradeCost = ns.hacknet.getLevelUpgradeCost(index); const ramUpgradeCost = ns.hacknet.getRamUpgradeCost(index); const coreUpgradeCost = ns.hacknet.getCoreUpgradeCost(index); // get prod. growth / cost ratios const levelUpgradeRatio = ((getProd(level + 1, ram, cores) * PROD_MULTIPLIER) - production) / levelUpgradeCost; const ramUpgradeRatio = ((getProd(level, ram * 2, cores) * PROD_MULTIPLIER) - production) / ramUpgradeCost; const coreUpgradeRatio = ((getProd(level, ram, cores + 1) * PROD_MULTIPLIER) - production) / coreUpgradeCost; // possible upgrades of current node const currentNodeUpgrades = [ {ratio: levelUpgradeRatio, cost: levelUpgradeCost, nodeIndex: index, upgrade: "level"}, {ratio: ramUpgradeRatio, cost: ramUpgradeCost, nodeIndex: index, upgrade: "ram"}, {ratio: coreUpgradeRatio, cost: coreUpgradeCost, nodeIndex: index, upgrade: "core"} ]; // push current node upgrades to all upgrades ratios.push(...currentNodeUpgrades); } // get the most profitable upgrade const { cost, nodeIndex, upgrade } = ratios.sort((a, b) => b.ratio - a.ratio)[0]; // wait until you have the money for upgrade while (getMoney() < cost) { await ns.sleep(1); } // execute upgrade switch (upgrade) { case "level": await ns.hacknet.upgradeLevel(nodeIndex); break; case "ram": await ns.hacknet.upgradeRam(nodeIndex); break; case "core": await ns.hacknet.upgradeCore(nodeIndex); break; default: continue; } // check if you can purchase new node const purchaseNodeCost = ns.hacknet.getPurchaseNodeCost(); const missingMoneyForNewNode = purchaseNodeCost - getMoney(); if (missingMoneyForNewNode > 0 && missingMoneyForNewNode < hacknetProduction * WAITING_TIME) { // if you need to wait for purchase node less than WAITING_TIME (in seconds) program waits to collect money while (getMoney() < purchaseNodeCost) { await ns.sleep(1); } ns.hacknet.purchaseNode(); } // sleep 1ms to prevent crash because of infinite loop await ns.sleep(1); } }
You can customize the time of waiting for purchase node (by default 30s) by passing an additional script argument. For example:
run hacknet-bot.js 120
