I'm working on a plant script, tending, collecting, all the good stuff. Debating on how far to really go with it, or where to draw the line. Go all the way, or half way.
A simple one to run every so often when I run out of renewal seeds would be nice, but gosh the setup can be a pain.
Obviously the easy parts that i'll include:
Filling all bowls with dirt
Locking all plants down
Moving plants to the chopable container
Watering the bowls of dirt
Seeding the bows
Tending plants
Collecting resources
I honestly don't wana buy the bowls and go around from NPC to NPC so I'm most likely going to pull the subs out from my shopper, and make it automatically buy/fill the bowls and dropping them off at home after I get the other crap working.
I've got the tending part half way done, just trying to make a few things happen to my plants to write the remaining checks/subs. All the other subs are simple loops, so I'll do them when I'm ready to test in bulk & need them to prepare.
Anyone have any ideas on what else would be useful? I think that's about it for the most part. I'm still reading up information on plants themselves, and any tactics players may have in the whole tending thing to consider into the script.
I know some players already have this, but I'm writing it for some friends that are tired of doing all the bowl collecting, filling, seed planting, watering, locking down, making/buying pots, getting an account to do it on so that someone they know who has a script, can press play for them to tend their plants, and then take the majority of their seeds for their 'services'. The most annoying part is knowing that some obtained what they shouldn't have, and being the way they are to their 'friends/guild'. Yes this script will be posted, and freely sent out. Hopefully once it's done I won't need to maintain it & the public can maintain it, since I lose interest as most know lol... I'll post my progress once I get the tending part finished, and update from there.
If anyone would like to share ideas feel free. If anyone actually tends plants and knows some good ways to tend them feel free to enlighten me. Right now it seems pretty basic. Find the -/+, apply the correct amount of potions. Strength potions I don't see where they come in. I'm thinking apply them only when a plant didn't grow at it's growth cycle? Maybe a bad fungi/infestation combination? If anyone has any good links to cover that too, that would be great.
So far I'm grabbing information from:
