Hey cowdude, I have a leatherworker/skinner that's level 81. LW isn't maxed because I stopped using it when LW wasn't really a big deal anymore with the new content on my server. I'm around 400 with it. Do you need a LW tester? Servers are down for the day right now, but when they come up I can try it out.
Assuming you are currently at rank 200 and crafting a few Silk Bolts to skill up. You already know that you'll need a LOT of those later, so just tell the bot how much bolts it should craft right now even if there's no skill up anymore: Code: #skill item keep description 200-205 12345 200 Silk Bolt ... 240-250 666 0 Some crappy pants that require lots of Silk bolts as reagents 250-260 777 0 Pinky boots that require loads of silk bolts too This means 'craft moar silk bolts as long as you're not 205 AND you dont have at least 200 units of these in your bags'. Note that you should round up the Keep value just in case the next user ain't as luck as you. Especially if you're using green crafts, which is quite a bad idea. I'll surely remove that Keep field later and let the bot guess if the missing reagent can be crafted. But for now I need to focus on getting the whole thing working. So let's keep it there until I update it.
I had just began development on such a tool . . . maybe some collaborative development may be useful?
Need any more testers? I have plenty of characters to do whatever you need, and will gladly make another if you need.
I had to rewrite a huge part of it. It's now a plugin (instead of a bot) that actually switch bots depending on your needs. I'm currently focusing on herbalism and mining 1shot powerleveling using GB2. It will also allow you to create your own 'bot switch' profiles. They currently look like an HB profile (XML with C# code inside CDATA). But basically, I'm doing some cleanup these days and will release a first version with herbalism, skinning and mining powerleveling. And yes, it can support ground mounts (using grind bot) or flying mounts (GB2).
Will it also automatically train us as we reach certain levels of skill? Or, will all training have to be done manually? Would be nice if all trainings were done automatically to make this an AFK-type thing, or make it so you babysit it as little as possible.
That's more or less like a questing profile compared to a grinding one. I personally aim to release a plugin that will do everything I got to do on multiple characters: farming, crafting, auctioning, mails, profession dailies, ... I'm getting tired of having to do the same crap every day. Don't get that excited though, harvesting professions first, then crafting ones... that's already dozens of hours of work.
