Auto studying curios

[miraclew]

Basically some kind of algorithm to account for any wasted attention time while offline and attempt to use curios stored in that character's inventory to fill in the gaps. Two benefits:

- Reduces the need to log on at odd times just to swap in fresh curios
- Forces us all to store our most valuable curios in the actual game world instead of altvaults that are completely impenetrable, as any alt would autostudy the shit out of your good curios

What would obviously happen next is everyone would want to strongbox this stuff and just keep the keys on an alt. But strongboxes can be bashed at least, and I think we'd see them being used for their actual purpose instead of trapping people.

lol I was thinking too abusable when I read the first line then I laughed when I read:

so now I feel neutral toward it...

i do it that in my own client, and is executed each 8 hrs (the client with that comand) not hard to make if you have medium development skills..

I really wonder what for you're playing games at all ...

I really wonder what for you're playing games at all ...

1) because I can
2) because i love make bots , emulating silly IA and others shits
3) because I can ..again
4) because i dont like use my time to make some silly things like, foraging, farming,crafting,silkmaking, etc etc.
5) i not play much ofc, I only connect to kill some bitches and hunting.
6) because i can... deal with it , mod <3 (⌐■_■)

make the game more server sided, and woila bot users starts to dissappear due u can really code an pb or eye as example. Bot using with multi boxsing fuck yeah really fun to play !
10 clients open ( i could open 15 clients , confirmed with try ) then code an multiboksing program or just open 15 diffrent clients of included bot and again no need to play the game at all..
i hope jorb and lofter gets the point of this..

15 miner , forager , hunter , so on... its like playing dwarf fortress in a mmorpg rofl. those two gathers clay, and these builds this house, these three gets me an shitloads of curis

-> reason why bot using is illegal on majority of mmo games.

Recently haven has become more about play because you love the game, rather than play to be the best for most people.

I don't like this only because it would make logged out alt claim characters even easier to be made.

Also mechanically, how would it work? Curios don't get consumed and LP doesn't get gained until a Hearthling logs in. There'd be no way to cycle curios into the new slots while the Hearthling is online because the curios are still in play. Besides, there is probably already a bot that can do this anyway.

The idea that this would prevent alt vaulting is bullshit anyway, as alt vaulting isn't really that big of an issue with regards to disrupting the gameworld's economy (and not too mention, is the only security method for low-tech hermits that don't have a brick wall yet).

0/10 poor idea, not thought out mechanically, nor deals with any balance or gameplay either (or could potentially make things worse more than it solves anything).
