Hello Ownedcore,
I'm interested in starting a project where people can make a code snippet which does one single thing in the game, and submit it to version control such as github. In this way we can all build a great bot which is extensible and free. Since I prefer AutoIT, that will be the project.
For example there will be one function to check if Diablo 3 is running or not, and start it if it isn't.
There will be one function which will determine if you are at the log in screen or not.
There will be one function for everything:
Go to town using TP.
Find nearest merchant.
Change quest to a specific quest.
And so forth. In the very beginning the bot will be useless. But as submissions come in there will be more and more workable code, and eventually maybe you could write a bot like this:
startup()
go_to('auction house')
auction_house('random clicking around')
chat(random_chat_message)
boss_run('diablo', clear_area_first=True)
...etc...
I'm a little skeptical about autoit's ability to accurately combat dynamically placed monsters, but at the very least this would be a fun exercise in bot writing, pixel detection, etc. And would be useful for some things.
Is anyone interested in a project like this? Seems everyone is re-inventing the wheel in their own bots; maybe we can band together...
