how to separate donated and non-donated?

Utharnl · 07/12/2011, 11:13

@umplara
If you get disconnected it can take some time before the bot knows this. Each time the "Next Update" timer reached 0 it will check if you're still connected to the server.

And if you want to use the bot on multiple accounts you can copy the bot directory. This is needed because all the bots that are running need their own configuration files.

@lo62ve
It is the same download link for everyone. But I'll send everyone who has donated a file which unlocks those extra features.

great job uthar!

Utharnl · 07/12/2011, 23:33

Yes that is indeed not possible. Also version 1.9.7 is only for Grepolis 1, which is discussed in an other topic (See signature).
The bot in this topic, currently version 2.0.0, works only for Grepolis 2.

Ah ok, but then you should be able to keep your settings. Just copy your whole Config folder.
After that just start the bot and go the settings tab, if you press OK there your settings will be converted to the newest version.
When you are logged in go to one of the other tabs and save your town settings. This will convert your town settings to the latest version.

You can solve the browser problem by pressing F5. Unfortunately the bot uses IE as browser which causes some problems. This is however the best browser that works good with the .NET Framework. When I find something better I'll update it as soon as possible.

Hi Uthar, now the limit of the log file is 503 rows and 14 cities having it fills up quickly. can extend it in external file?

Hi Utharnl,
how does the browser keep the connection, is it by cookies ? If so, can't I be able to copy those cookies to another browser cookie directory and use another browser for the interface during a session ?

Utharnl · 07/13/2011, 18:59

@ancavazz
That is not possible at the moment but I could add that in the next version.

@pcosmin
Yes that's correct, it uses cookies. Also I think it should be possible to do what you want if you convert it to something the other browser understands.
But I'm afraid it's very risky because you will be connected with two different user-agents, which will be noticed by their moderators.

Email notifications are nice, especially with Android powered phone. :-)

Is your bot ready for the new world 22, Chi, that will announce on July the 18th? And can you run two or more worlds at one bot. Like Tau, Sigma and in the future Chi?

lo62ve · 07/14/2011, 09:06

if i donate, how long can i use those features?

Utharnl · 07/14/2011, 10:52

@Jarisk
Yes, indeed

I'm also using android, works great.

@pronkjuweel
The bot works on all current and future released 2.0 worlds.
If you want to run the bot on multiple servers you'll have to copy the bot directory. This is needed because each server needs their own configuration files.

@lo62ve
If you donate you can use those features forever. Both the current features and the features that will be added in the future.

lo62ve · 07/14/2011, 12:15

then how about multiple acount? it also forever?

Utharnl · 07/14/2011, 12:56

Yes, that's not a problem. Although your account will be terminated if you start sharing it with everyone.
