nice catch I'll fix that tonight

Collaboration makes the world go round; if you agree that anti-matter and matter collaborate.

More Ideas in no particular order.  I think this would be the cadillac miner and overkill for most.


Check box to allow for User to Keep Protection up (I think we recently came to the conclusion that a talisman could drop that)

Drop down to select Defense
   --None--
   Flee
   Fight til death
   Fight til xx%

For Flee, I'll present an option screen to allow you to include and exclude mob types, set the reputation of humans to flee from, max mobs
For both fights You'll get just about the same options screen
For the fight till XX% you'll also have to state what percentage

Drop down to select fighting still
   --AutoDefend--
   Pet? GM Miner with a Greater Dragon? <-- and I think you should hide the dragon when you get to the mine
   Archery *maybe we'd check to keep your bow equipped although we encourage a spell casting weapon
   Melee *maybe we'd check to keep your bow equipped although we encourage a spell casting weapon, I personally don't like this because it probably wrecks your armor
   Fireball
   Curse - Fireball
   Evil Omen - Fireball
   Corpse Skin - FireBall
   Mind Blast
   Curse - Mind Blast
   Evil Omen - Mind Blast
   ...etc

   Maybe we just list all the offensive spells and provide an option for pre-casting other spells like (Curse, Evil Omen, Corpse Skin, maybe poison)

There are two subs in this library
StringReplace
ConvertSpacesToSpaces

There is a number of sample calls that you should remove if you want to use this

;=================================================================
; Subroutine: ConvertSpacesToSpaces
; Author: Paul Erickson
; Version: 0.20b
; Purpose: This routine will accept any amount of text that may
;          spaces within in and convert them to #spc
;
; Parameters:
;       %1 req I need at least one value or I'll call you stoopid!
;       %2+ opt All other parameter are just the rest of the
;               string to be stitched together

; Subroutine: StringReplace
; Author: Paul Erickson
; Version: 0.20b
; Purpose: This routine will an original string, a set of
;          characters (1 to a lot) to search for and a set of
;          characters (1 to a lot) to replace them with.
;
; Parameters:
;       %1 req I need at least one value or I'll call you stoopid!
;       %2 opt What is the set of characters to be replaced; I
;              call this optional but without it there's really
;              no work to be done
;       %3 opt What is the set of characters to replace the find
;              string with.  If you pass nothing I basically
;              remove the find string

Not that we don't already have too many mining scripts, but I have another Work-in-progress.

I basically want it to be useable for both UA and semi-UA (running in a VM or running on a computer across the room)

At start up it detects what kind of pets you have in tow.
If you have a fire beetle it presumes you want to smelt in the field.  If you don't want to smelt in the field then put the fire beetle away.
If you have a giant beetle, It presumes you want to load up the pack with your ore and it must be ore because you can't have a fire and giant at the same time.
The same for Pack Horse and Pack Llama, but here it assesses whether or not you have a fire as well.  With a fire it will smelt and pack the ingots on the pack animal.
If you have none of the above pets then it just mines ore and returnes when you are full.

I allow you to have as many runebooks as you want and then cycle through them

I think the advantage here is that it allows you to mine the way you want to mine. 

If you are fully AFK then you likely want to limit your time in the field and reduce the exposure to PKs, Narcs and GMs.  Most fully AFKs are not looking to peak their resources/hour but are trying to assure avoidance of capture.  So you probably don't want a pet; you want to get to a mine spot dig until full and move on.  Allowing for more books also helps you increase the time between locations so that bad folk can't stalk you for timing of when to pounce.

If you are semi-AFK, then I believe you are looking for resources/hour, and I want to limit the time wasted travelling back and forth to the secure, so I want to allow you to have as much storage as you can get.

Now the difference between field smelting and not smelting is that the ingots are lighter, so you trade the time it takes to smelt for being able to store more resources before unloading.  I do not have good statistics for this but I want to allow both so you can decide.

The script does have some health checking (Poison and hits) resolved through magery.  Adding other methods is trivial.

It also has fleeing capablities, so it flees when harmed, or if there is a human type with a abad reputation.

All that said, is this anything of interest, since there are already enough mining scripts?  And is my theory sound?

I spent all day in front of the computer yesterday, playing with a simple arti farmer.

I started with an old honor trainer that spammed the two daemon room in Fire Dungeon.

Then I figured hey why not do tsuki wolves instead, which by the way, you don't gain honor off them.  And then I though, hey my Tamer is a disco tamer why not use discord too?  So now I have a walking mumbling Disco/Honor/Farmer.  Well by about noon CST all the other farmer woke up and I got tired of them stealing my camps, so I thought why not got do wryms instead.  When I went to bed last night, I'd farmed 1.3 million gp and 57 arties + a couple of the valor arties from swoop.

I was impressed that I'd banked a nice sum and then realized it was 80 degrees here yesterday, wtf didn't I go out side?

if you have positive karma the lil isle inside the ilsh spider cave on the roof is good at high levels too and nobody is ever there
