      This, for me, is one of the fundamental problems with CTM. Watch an escort quest using either kicks or cavas or brolies or a personal one. You run in front of the escort CTMing in the direction they are going. You move 5 yards then CTM again, rinse, repeat. Over and over until you reach the end point. These packets being sent to the server can, not saying they are but can, be recorded. No human goes W...W...W...A...W...W etc. every 2-3 seconds. They run ahead of the escort or depending on the escort quest just go to the end and wait for them to arrive.

      This is just one example of course. Not saying other people are correct in their assumptions just my own observations of how CTM could be a bad thing.

      This is not really related to CTM at all. It is because of the logic used in the Escort behavior. The Escort behavior or the profiles can be coded to move to the end and wait just like a normal player.

      The behavior would still be the same if we had a keyboard mover.

      Agreed, and not to mention, I almost know all quests out of my head, I know where I need to escort him. So even without botting I'm ahead of the escort guy.

      *nod* So maybe change the quest behaviour depending on the escort quests? That was more where i was going. It was just an example of how CTM *could* be a problem. And as you said it would also be a problem with kb mover instead.
