Gang.nextUpdate() method

Sleeps until the next Gang update has happened.

Promise<number>

Promise that resolves to the number of milliseconds of Gang time that were processed in the previous update (2000 - 5000 ms).

Remarks

The amount of real time spent asleep between updates can vary due to "bonus time".

Example

while (true) {
  const duration = await ns.gang.nextUpdate();
  ns.print(`Gang completed ${ns.format.time(duration)} of activity.`);
  ns.print(`Bonus time remaining: ${ns.format.time(ns.gang.getBonusTime())}`);
  // Manage the Gang
}
