Lyanna Report post Posted September 20, 2004 The carry bot idea...what do you mean by that? And is it too close to muling? Help bot is diificult to program, because of the number of permutations in the typical Newbie Channel conversation. In any case, there are usually enough NHs there to answer any questions. Having a bot may unnecessarily spam the channel with extra repeated help info. -Lyn- Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dns_server Report post Posted September 20, 2004 by carrying i mean, the ability to carry stuff for me, ie when makeing iorn bars, i could get it to flollow me, and give me coal and fire essences. possibly have the ability to walk to storage and deposit and withdraw items and bring them back to me.

dns_server Report post Posted September 20, 2004 Another bot idea that i would like to create would be an auctioneer. players would be able to give me items to auction, set a reserve, and an auction would be caried out over a fiew days. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Learner Report post Posted September 20, 2004 I'm currently working on a Help bot that will also buy & sell food near beam. Currently he will be limited to answering PM's only. Later I'll look at monitoring channel 1 and sometimes answering (it depends in testing and false keyword hits before that will ge activated). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
