Hey everybody!
 
Tired of the boring stuff in Virtonomics? You don't want to repair equipment anymore? Forcing all your subdivisions to go to training takes too much of your time? Setting the salary of your employees to the required amount is not fun? XioScript comes to the rescue! Never will you have to do these boring things again. Just set the options to your judgement, click on the execute button, and all subdivisions will be managed on your behalf. So you can focus your Virtonomics time on the interesting stuff.
 
This forum topic is the place where everything related to XioScript is discussed. In contrast to it's name, it is actually an add-on only supported on the Mozilla Firefox browser. Currently XioScript 14 is still in progress of being made, so if you want some additional functionality you should check out the older XioScript 12. My versions of XioScript 12 (12.0 and 12.1) are outdated and not working anymore, so instead you can pick up Cobr's 12.0.127 version that is working. Note that XioScript 12 really is a script, so a script add-on such as Tampermonkey is required to run, and they can run in other browsers than Firefox as well.
 
You can find the script/add-on here:

why wouldn't such a general oversight right at the subdivision listing be paying off? I think this is general manager report material. The only other way to see that information is by visiting the financial report of every subdivision.

I have two problems with scripting this idea:
 
First the amount of server pressure. Every subdivision will need one Ajax call. That's in your case with all your factories and farms, hundreds of Ajax calls. And that every time you load your overview page? The server will definitely have problems with handling those calls.
 
The time is the second problem: the CTIE page takes a second to calculate the new price right? I have programmed that, so I know there are three ajax calls involved there. Do the math and you will see that your page need minutes to load, every time you open the page. I don't think you want that.
 
It is a great idea, but not in this format. If you have a solution for it I like to hear that.
This could be done easily at the server side by pulling the appropriate values from the db when generating the page but you are right,  a scripted solution at client-side seems not suitable.

Hello everyone. Great to see the discussion on scripting in this game going so forth.
 
I am the one responsible for Virtonomics Enhanced and am coming back to this game after a very long hiatus. I am pleased to inform you guys that I will start work on VE once more, fixing things and adding more features. I will be checking this thread fairly regularly as well as the userscript comments page. Please do let me know if you want anything spicific implemented first or fixed first.
 
Time to resussicate my dying companies...
 
ciao

Great! Very we!
The Price/Quality ratio feature in VE is very useful.

I have one idea Well Few years back I saw on one of russian realms, that someone had script which showed in the sale tab of factories what is the price of that product in store.
 
As I remembered it was scripted for russian realm and I couldn't translate it to use it for Lien or Mary.
 
Is it tough to write it? This would be very helpful to make best supply priorities Well
 
Thank you in advance guys.

"in store"
Does that mean your store, the stores of everyone or the price on the global market?
Your store is almost impossible, so is the price of the stores of everyone else.
With time-consuming AJAX calls, the global market is possible, although that's still a bit vague...
However, I really like to see that script first before I start with that.

I think this is the one:
 
http://userscripts.org/scripts/show/115046 ...
 
Will see tommorow what will happen, if the prices will be there. I translated it to english but there is no prices yet, just new column Sale Price / profit

What he does is easy:
 
-He saves the prices in the local storage when you are in the shop.  
  (Although this part is missing in the script, that's why it doesn't work)
-He loads the prices out of the local storage when you are in the warehouse.
-I'm not sure, but I think he gives different colors to the prices based on the last time you've set your price.
 
That's pretty smart, because:
-The prices are never outdated (you are always in the shop when you set the price, so he always got the latest prices)
-Doesn't require load time when you are in the warehouse, nor when you are in the shop.
 
However, negative points:
-If you clear you cookies/storage accidentally, or automatically, you lose all your prices, and you have to go to all your stores one by one to see the prices back again in the warehouse.
 
That was sort of a review here, and my conclusion is that it's a better way than I proposed, but because it all mess up when you clear your storage, it's not my favorite way of scripting.

Haha nice try, but it doesn't really work that way To you
 
He already did that for you, it's just an other script:
 
http://userscripts.org/scripts/review/114917 ...
 
I have no clue why he doesn't make one script of it, but whatever.
You were close enough To you

the backbone for getting data and storing data via localstorage is already there in VE. I have just never used it because I did not want to lose the portability of the script.
 
Another method this can be implemented is to store the factory-store link in the enterprise's note. That way even if we switch computers, the data is always available and never lost.
 
I'll try some of it in a cpl of days. Need to get my company on its feet again. I am amazed that after almost 1 yr, the company still hasnt gone bankrupt...lol

Script updated!
Use the link in the first comment!
 
Change log
Version 4.0
 
New easy building :
-On the page where you choose the type of subdivision, there now appears a yellow box where you can fill in all the settings, that are normally spread out over seven pages. Press on "Build!" and the script builds it for you. You can still do the normal way by pressing on "Continue >"
-Supported subdivisions: Store, Services Center, Restaurant, Mill, Warehouse, Laboratory, Medical Center, Power Plant.

Building? You read the right my friend. Forbidden? Certainly not. Because this will not automatically build the things for you, you will just be able to do the same things faster (if you get used to it). For 1200 subdivisions, you still need at least a 1200 clicks. (But propably even more.)
 
It will make tenders a lot easier, especially because while the script builds, you can go back to your tender overview and think about the next building.
 
For general use it's a great tool too, building is most of the annoying things there is. Can you even find one other game where you couldn't build something in less than three seconds? Here, it takes 8x three seconds, almost half a minute for each subdivision. And for that you have to be really fast. (one second load, one second of thinking, half a second to click on the desired option and half a second to click on the continue button) Do the math: 120 subdivisions is one hour. I'm sure this will at least halve the time you used to build.
 
Just a quick note: be careful with setting the technology level. It will automatically buy the technology if you don't have it. I recommend you to always keep it level 1, and set it manually after it has been built.
 
Leave a comment if it works or not.

Very nice addition with the improved building wizard. Will it also support factories and animal farms in the future?

i'd be careful with scripts that 'reduce the number of clicks'. That's borderline botting. There is a reason I stood away from such features. It circumvents user interactions with the game.
 
But this is a must have feature. I just hope that the game designers implement it inherently.
