someguy567 Posted September 6, 2018 Share Posted September 6, 2018 I'm looking for possible ways to optimize a script or lower CPU usage from my script. Are there any practices I should implement that are great for lowering CPU usage? Also, there is something I notice with the scripts. If I use it, it will work fine normally but when I have say multiple of them running at the same time they will start to misclick with certain stuff, such as interacting with a NPC etc. Is this due to the CPU being a limiting factor or could it be something else? I am hoping to squeeze out as many bots as I can on a single server/vps. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

liverare Posted September 9, 2018 Share Posted September 9, 2018 Cache data as @ProjectPact mentioned Avoid updating the cache every other second if it can be helped Bulky logic and calculations belong in your main script loop Keep rendering to a minimum and allow users to turn it off Use multi-threading in places where it makes sense to handle multiple set of tasks separately For power-users, script parameters > GUI If the task is simple, then the code should be too. Don't go overboard with task nodes, switch-case states, etc. think 'happy path'. Also, you should check out: 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alek Posted September 11, 2018 Share Posted September 11, 2018 Anything that you're painting. Scripts with fancy paints are certainly more cpu expensive than a script with absolutely no paint. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perhaps it's worth adding some sort of box you can tick/script parameter you can enter to forcibly turn it off/on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Low resource mode, if I have the checkbox there I will have complaints that users cant see their paints, even if it says "Disable paint". 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
