Statter! - A Simple Lua Gold Monitor

Edit 4/19/2016
Just as a fair warning to the fellow botters who may be interested in this.

It's a possibility that Blizzard may track Lua variables that are stored into the game client to find botters.
While it's not known for Blizzard to ban by scanning commonly used Lua variables of botters - it's still a possibility.

This tool is a very simple addon, which addons of course aren't against the game's rules at all.
However, it's being advertised here - which 'here' is a botting community and that simply means botters will be using it.

The Lua variables used by this addon are very generic, and it's unlikely for it to be a potential security risk.
But this warning needs to be made before hand.

Hello! :3

I've decided to whip up a basic Lua script that will monitor gold income on your character as it farms.
This script is activated by loading it through the Questing botbase, just as you would do with any other Honorbuddy profile.

Originally, this script would be activated (by default) in my Optimized Dungeon Farm profiles, however I decided to make a simple stand-alone version for anyone wanting a quick little gold monitor.

I know, there's other plugins and addons that already do this - but I thought I would just share this for anyone wanting to just grab a quick solution.​

Currently - as you see from the screenshot the script monitors and calculates:

• Time since activation (since Statter! was started)
• Obtained Gold (how much gold you've actually obtained)
• Bag Loot Value (how much the total value of every item in your bag is worth)
• Total Obtained + Bag Loot (how much actual gold you've obtained plus the value of the items in your bag)
• GPH (gold-per-hour)
• GPH (+ Bag Value) (gold-per-hour, including the value of items in your bags)
• GPM (gold-per-minute)
• GPM (+ Bag Value) (gold-per-minute, including the value of items in your bags)
• Farm Score (Total Copper Obtained / Time Active In Seconds)/10 *primarily used in dungeon farming given the 10-dungeons-per-hour limitation
• Farm Score (+Bag Value) (same as bove, but including the value of bag items.)

'Need-To-Know!'

• The profile versions are activated through the Questing botbase. Just load it, and start the bot! Upon activation, the bot will stop instantly. Statter! will then notify you if it's active.
• If Statter! is started while items are in your bags, the Bag Value calculations will show absurdly high numbers due to the profile being 'active' in such a short amount of time.
• Bag Value stats are calculated by how much the item will vendor for, not how much they will sell on the auction house.
• Statter! can be disabled by typing /reload in-game.
• This script isn't ran asynchronously meaning it's not a resource hog. Calculations are generated on-demand (including timers), and aren't passively being calculated in the background. This way when you're running your 50+ bots, there's less interference. ;3

Don't want to have to load this every time you start a profile?

You can easily add this script into the header of any profile, or you can add a on-load profile after the scripts started.
The stats/timers are automatically reset when Statter! is reloaded.
You need to register and have one post to see spoilers! ​

Commands

• Stats are shown by typing: /stats, /statter, or /statter!
• Timers can be reset by typing: /timerreset
• The stats can be reset by typing: /statsreset

For Developers.

The Statter! project is welcome to any profile.
I know Statter! is a simple Lua script, but please post proper credit prior to using it in your profiles. :3​

Bot safe!​

 

After you load Statter! and activate it, simply load whichever profile you want to farm as you normally would.
Statter! stays active as long as you don't log out, or reload your client.

Or, if you want to skip the first step of loading+activating Statter! , the Statter! code can be imported into whichever profiles you want.
Send me the profiles you want the code in, and I'll make the edits for you.

Or, if you want to attempt the edit yourself follow these steps:

The forums were having problems the other day - and all attachments were bugged out.
The problem probably fixed itself once the forums were re-stabilized.

 

I don't personally farm, I only create profiles.

 

Would be insanely easy to code that into a profile, but if I'm not mistaken - you can't reset raids.
I may look into it, but I can't guarantee that I'll get around to making it, right now I have a lot on my "to do" list.

 

It calculates raw vendor values.

In order to calculate profits 'based' off of auctions, I'd need to put a static (average) value for each material (ex: stack of Frostweave = 60 gold, or 1 Frostweave = 3 gold.)

Or, we could have it scan the auction house to get averages/undercut prices.
Which that would be a nice solution, however it would require the user to scan the auction house every time Statter! is enabled.

 

(+Bag Value) calculations can show extremely high values if you start Statter! while having items in your bag.
Statter! calculations won't exclude the items that were in your bag before it was started.

The reason why the values can be high is because:
Once Statter! is started, there has been merely seconds since its activation, however it still calculates the items in your bag.
So if you have 500 gold worth of items in your bag, and Statter! has only been active for 5~ seconds, it's going to say you're making a lot of money per hour/minute.
As time progresses, the values will average out to the appropriate levels.

I'll probably add a 'fix' for this later on down the road.

 

This is a profile that merely calculates stats.
Not a combat routine.

If you want to modify the behavior of your combat, you'll need to configure Singular, or download a different combat routine.
