dns_server Report post Posted May 21, 2006 Fortune is useless but fun, the format of the files are simple, they are just plain text with fortunes seperated by a line containing a single '%', just get the source of the fortune-mod from debian or another linux distro for a good collection. on [guild tag] parses the online list and then processes guild tags to see who is online in that guild, it is something that can get quite complex as you need to store everyones guild tags, this requires that your bot processes EnhancedActors (for name and guild tags) which can get complex and it helps if it sits somewhere resonably high traffic to watch for names. stats/skills [name] parses the stats pages, this can get complex but not as bad as online, it requires quite a bit of processing to get the parameters but it is something usefull Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jaxbot Report post Posted May 22, 2006 Hey, would a Mail Bot, like you chat to him and tell him to deliver something from a shop, have to be a paid bot? I guess it's the same thing as a trade bot anyway. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Aislinn Report post Posted May 22, 2006 Hey, would a Mail Bot, like you chat to him and tell him to deliver something from a shop, have to be a paid bot? I guess it's the same thing as a trade bot anyway. Search, this idea has been discussed before. (Delivery supply bots) Edit: I'm wondering if you guys even read the bot rules, here's just a few of them a delivery supply bot would break: 3. The only bots that are allowed to buy and sell now are paid bots. 4. Trade bots cannot be in range of any storage. 5. Bots that serve their master in a way such as muling are illegal (see the rules for multiplaying). 6. Bots cannot be stationed in range of harvestable items. They must be far enough way so that they cannot harvest from where they are standing. 9. Commerce bots have to be stationary, with a few exceptions (such as going to the storage every once in a while, or some bots going to resuply, if an exception is made in their case).

auror Report post Posted May 26, 2006 how about a bot that you could play wheel of fortune with on a channel. I don't know if it's possable because the only thing I have ever programed is HTML. The winner could maybe get a small prize or something. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jaxbot Report post Posted May 27, 2006 Yes, it's possible. I'd learn PHP if I were you, it's pretty cool after using HTML Back to the point: It would have to be paid, though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Commerce bots have to be stationary, with a few exceptions (such as going to the storage every once in a while, or some bots going to resuply, if an exception is made in their case). acording to 3 they can't buy or sell. the bot for the game isn't buying and he isn't selling because he doesn't get anything back. The definition of sell acording to http://dictionary.reference.com/search?q=sell is..... 1. To exchange or deliver for money or its equivalent. 2. To offer for sale, as for one's business or livelihood: The partners sell textiles. 3. To give up or surrender in exchange for a price or reward: sell one's soul to the devil. 4. To be purchased in (a certain quantity); achieve sales of: a book that sold a million copies. 5. a.To bring about or encourage sales of; promote: Good publicity sold the product. b.To cause to be accepted; advocate successfully: We sold the proposal to the school committee. c.To persuade (another) to recognize the worth or desirability of something: They sold me on the idea. The right defenition in this case would be 1 and your not getting money or its equivalent Edited June 15, 2006 by auror Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Aislinn Report post Posted May 31, 2006 tell him to deliver something from a shop, Errr how is this bot going to get something from this shop? And how is the player "hiring" it going to pay for the items? If that isn't buying and selling, what exactly is? The player would have to give the bot gc for the item, and the item would have to be "bought" from the shop by the bot... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jaxbot Report post Posted June 10, 2006 (edited) Hey, would I have to pay for a bot that makes money? Ok, more detail: I was thinking about making a bot that hosts a gameshow. Then people would pay ME money to join the gameshow and etc. It wouldn't trade, buy, or sell, but doesn't it count as Illgeal muiltiplaying? EDIT: It wouldn't trade. Typo.

Jaxbot Report post Posted June 10, 2006 Have you even read my post? heh heh, joking. The bot wouldn't trade, people would trade with me. The bot would only be the host of the show. And yes, I have read the rules, I was just checking to find out for sure. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Earl Report post Posted June 10, 2006 If you are still after something a bot could do but no bot does... how about a book prerequisite bot. You PM the name of a book and it returns everything you need to know before that. Would be a hit with all the book readers out there. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
