Hi epvp,

Server restarted.
I noticed that pumpin boxs has 2 differents colors now. BP technic to catch bot ?
But maybe I am paranoiac... I'm just preventing.

2 colors? does that mean 2 different colors, or 2 similar colors?

Xavierbot · 10/30/2015, 15:06

Not the same boxes ...

As well as pumpkins :

Screen? i dont see difference.

-popcorn- · 10/30/2015, 15:12

yes, all bonus boxes and pumpkings are tinted, but not only 2 colors
I think they just are randomly tinted

Xavierbot · 10/30/2015, 15:13

This wasn't the case before ? Was it ?
It could be a technic to see which boxes are picked...

scarlatto · 10/30/2015, 15:14

fsbot and mbot collect them

This is most likely only to slow down bots (like the change to make them always spin arround), it's harder for pixelbots to detect the boxes if they are tinted, but i don't think they are going to ban anyone for not picking up a box...

For safety stop the botting please. Mbot collected first all boxes, but now he do it not longer.

I think the new frames of boxes is a new anti-update (over 25 new frames for boxes).

Yep, that's obviouly an anti bot feature , if a bot collects only pumpking with the same tint , you're a bot

i don't really see the different on the pumpkin box , but i easly see it on the pumpkin

Welcome back to darkorbit mon pote , moi je joue plus maitenant .

Well i was botting, and what i saw the boxes are moving indeed.
Also the boxes on 2D are harder to detect than 3D

Hmmmm very interesting.... BP said something official about that "change" ��

gora_power · 10/30/2015, 17:11

i don't see any color change on the bonus box, but i just saw some kristallins and kristallons and they are grey, thats not their original color....

It's the helloween event dute

It's not just 2 colors of boxes/pumpkins, it's a random pixel color for each of them, but the random range it's not so big so it should be easy for bot devs.
