[AH Bot] HappyAuction

[EndlessPermission]

Hmm, still crashing for me at the same line as before.

@ zinko
30 bots? Jesus Christ that's a lot, may I ask what kind of items you're buying?

edit:
Never mind, maybe I accidentally unzipped the 0.29 version again instead of the 0.3 one. It doesn't crash any longer now.
The login delay still seems to reset itself after the first attempt though.

good news!

actually calling a script from the login screen should already work so long as you have haSetLogin at the beginning of your script

hmm i tested this bit... should be fine. is it single or multiclient?

Okay... total noob here. Where do I set filters for the Snipe bot?

While I usually have 3 clients running I'm testing that with a single one. And I dunno if that's the wrong way but it neither works for me if I first call "haSetLoginDelay()" then "haSetLogin()" and afterwards the bot script I wanna execute or if I first call "haSetLogin()" an then "haSetLoginDelay()". Although I enter a third, delay value in haSetLogin() too, which should be enough by itself I suppose.
I then test it by simply running the bot for a bit, cut the internet connection and see how quickly the bot tries to log in again. And it still tries constantly after it waited e.g. 6 seconds (6000 as delay parameter) once.

I have a question. If i want to log some item from AH and I want to do it in a way that item name and all his stats are written in a same row in the log file how should i do that? I think i should iterate through item.stats but every iteration will result new call to haLog function which will result stats that are written in multiple lines. Any clue?

[ChuiChu]

i think you pm me about this. for anyone else wondering... use the LUA file operations for more manual logging.

the sample code i tested with is:

haSetLogin('[email protected]', 'ikilledblizzard')
haSetLoginDelay(5000)
run some bot and force a DC in the middle (using windows network interface / right click/ disable and renable later)

anyway ill review this again. note also that haSetLoginDelay() would translate to haSetLoginDelay(0) in case youre ever calling it that way.

Hello and thank you again for this amazing bot that has made me rich and famous.
I have found a bug in last version (30) : haItem().type returns rarity + type : 'Ring' becomes 'Rare Ring'.
Regards.

i changed this because it wasnt possible to consistently always separate type from rarity. now rarity is done based on the text color. in the future ill see if i can pull all this info from somewhere else.

i am new to this, can some one help me please ?

bot works but when i set to search for item it started refreshing like crazy until i got d/c for to many actions


how can i limit that ?


also what are those "Bot" files ? is it something i can load with this AH bot ? if so how do i do it ? iam noob at this but it looks like its ready script for bot to use, but how do i use it ?

please remake item.dps function to return pure dps without red gem in socket. even auction show weapons without count these red gems and sort weapons as if red gems doesn't exists. these fake dps exist only in item tooltip. yes i know that i can check gems in my script and if it red - then ignore that item but it's very bad way and some amount of good weapons will be ignored. proper way is recalculating dps as this item without red gems. but algorithm of doing so is too comlex for me and i can't realize it in code. can you change item.dps function so it return pure dps? i think nobody needs that fake dps with red gems.

Great stuff ChuiChu!

i thought the ruby bonus was removed in the final DPS calculation in 1.0.4 (along with every other gem stat)

oooh wait i see. you expect the delay per login cycle not just once when logout occurs. i guess it makes more sense to do it that way... so ill change it up

yes it's removed. auction window shows correct dps. fake dps remains only in tooltip of item and you take it from tooltip - so it's not correct.

I'm way too stupid to use this thing, is there anywhere I can learn how to make my own script? I have read the readme but it's baffling to me. Or if someone can put a sample of their script using the sniperbot with multiple items looping and have your items and prices for buyout taken out that would be nice.

@ ChuiChu
Exactly what I wanted to say :d
Changing this is appreciated!

edit:

Who of the botters here actually still as much success these days? Feels like the item prices sink by at least 10% each day and I have to be careful adjusting the values in time. There were some cases where I e.g. bought an item for 100m Gold that were worth at least 2 times as much just a week before and I then wasn't able to sell them back without a loss.
I'm sniping legendaries and I still have decent success (making like 300-600m a day). But boy do the prices sink quickly. The profit margins get smaller and smaller with most items and only the top. top rolls can be a huge rollover. However, getting the top tier items (ones which go for >300m easily) is far less likely, as it's more likely that more bots are looking at these items that are obviously worth flipping.

Gold is worth pretty little too at the moment. So the profit decreases from two sides.

That's no complained, just interested how you others do.
