I wonder how hard it would be...

...to create a program to do screen scraping to automatically fight munmars (1 hit kills) for your character? Have it watch your hp and stop and notify you if you get below 50.

quite easy really, that gives me an idea :D

It's easy but probably not that fun.

The fun is in writing an watching it work for a few minutes. I wouldn't use it after that.

I need to test this out, but I think that on average I get more than one Dev before I get *hit* by a Munmar, so it might be a better tactic to simply die, put all my Devs except one in the bank, go spend that one Dev on healing, then go back to killing them........

You heal over time don't waste money on healing :D

Yes, but that also needs to be weighed against the fact that if I spend a bit of gold I'll be *getting* more gold in the process. Because if I heal only by 1 gold at a time, and in those intervals I'm getting more than one gold, I'm effectively using the time I would normally be inactive to get more gold.

and make your own mind up from there ... ooh, look shiny ...

Is that a shiny i see? Yeah. Cool.

I would write a program for that, but I am lazy.

And extremely unskilled.

Oh look another shiny.

I'm having to write a curl script for work at the moment.. maybe I'll give it a shot.

Like f'lar says, I would find it fun to make it work but after that I wouldn't use it. But I reckon some people have already done it, judging by how many battles they've had.

Well don't look at me. I haven't played with screen scraping before, and I did throw something together that gets a web page to a string in vb.net, but I don't yet know how to log myself in.

@f'lar

If you want I can probably send you some code - if I can find it.

Well, I found a way around that. I can duplicate the cookies I found in firefox set by devshed in my request, and then it knows who I am. I think I can handle the rest of the forms, but that will have to wait until another time. I'm supposed to be working.

Well, I have a rudimentary version that works now. It will fight bots, and heal if you die. I can't get it to deposit/withdraw money yet, so it won't go very long (all it takes is two lucky hits by a monster and I have to go heal manually) and it won't accumulate any money over time. I need to do some more fine tuning and then I'll hide the code away for any future screen-scraping needs.

Why not just fight the wolf? That way you know you will never get hit and always one shot kill. :)

40EXP ... then just set it up and let it roll.

That's who I would pick on.

The wolf still gets lucky once in a while. Anyway- it's set up so I can change which bot it goes after. Right now I'm up to one hit kills with the Grim Gaze, which goes almost twice as fast. I think two more levels and I'll be able to do that with the abizoah.
