Nuke ignores try-catch

[Cthary]

Heyho,
i currently try to auto nuke servers.
The Problem is this:
try {
ns.nuke(server)
ns.print("SERVER="+server+" NUKED")
} catch { }

I get a "Script crashed with runtime error" here, "nuke: Not enough ports opened to use NUKE.exe virus.".

How can that be ? i mean, the error is correct but should be catched and ignored.

I solved the problem by creating checks beforehand... but still... why didn't it got catched ?

You need to define the catch error. This for instance will catch any error event.

/** @param {NS} ns **/
export async function main(ns)
{
try { ns.nuke(host); }
catch { ErrorEvent; }
}

To elaborate; an empty catch should work since it's checking for any and all errors, but I've also run into situations where I get a runtime error while using an empty catch.
