Do not pass go - Auto-aggro/Auto-logout

[Phades]

I have kept silent about my opinion of Alg's mods but I feel I should say that for the record:

I approve of these mods.

Keep in mind that these type of mods have been around for a LONG time. I for one have had them in my auto-bot town (totally un-manned) for quite some time now. While on my journeys I have noticed behavior of others characters I have encountered that suggest they may have such mods as well.

If it is possible for one, then it should be possible for all. If it is an unintended possibility, then the game designers should make design changes to prevent such things. It is public mods like this that bring about much needed change to improve the game for everyone.

Gah. My opinion of you just went to nadda. People who can't play games (which are supposedly for pleasure, correct?), and have to use bots to succeed are extremely low in my book <.<.

I'm sorry to hear that. When I did play the game competitively I refrained from using bots/advantages. But.... I've gotten bored with the game a long time ago. I have a lot more fun now writing bots and watching them do things automated. I just intervene when they crash or do something I didn't intend for them to do. I don't raid villages/people or trade. I play completely hermit just to enjoy watching my robotic children.

It's not exactly making everyone even, it's game breaking. More than the game is already broken. Only a select few had this before and it was rarely used to begin with, to give it to anyone with a heartbeat in order to say that it gives equality is just silly. But oh well, my farm is coming along nicely now

The game has been broken like this for a couple of years now. All it's doing is forcing someone to code something to actually prevent these from working, which is better in the long run. The problem is as is seen with the recent band aid fix for the auto-hearth script. (I always have hearth as one key press away, anyway, unless i'm killing bears, digging, etc. where it won't stay on opne.) As Phaedes pointed out, these things have been available for at least as long as the client got released as open source.

This leaves me with two possible conclusions about people whining in this thread:

They are either blind to the fact that these are getting used

OR

They're butthurt because they don't have an advantage anymore.

YES, it is going to make the game suck balls for raiders and those wanting to live peacefully until Jorb and Loftar can put a real fix in. Before only a small percentage of players used this, and so if you didn't have access to the counter, it wasn't a huge issue. Now they'll be forced to address it. Maybe, along the way, it will cut down on botting and scripts overall. After all, they need to come up with a fix for this somehow if they want Salem to be a commercial success. No way people are going to put money into any game if Seatribe can't keep the playing field fair.

Now make a auto-aim for range users....

Hearth delay is in game now. Let the games begin
