Ability to auto level crew skills? #44

Open pjmagee opened 8 years ago

Add functionality to level crew skills. This would send the companions on the crew skills missions, when they return the bot will just repeat. This means it would be possible to automatically level crew skills with no player input needed to manually send them on missions.

Wouldn't work since switching players causes some issues, there is a bot that does exactly this. You have to dig around for the updated version as it's not posted public anywhere. The API for buddywing does have the calls if you wanted to code one for say just a single player that stayed logged in but how slow is that to level a crew skill on just 1 char logged in. I remember seeing them when I was screwing around with Default Combat and some plugins.

Why would switching players be the reason this API cannot be implemented.

It can work for just one character at a time, but it's a ton of wasted time to just send someone off for a task and that's all they are doing. I also noted that there are API calls for these you can play with already. You just have to dig through the API's. The most efficient way of doing tradeskills is to kick them off on one player, go to another and kick off, etc, etc, etc, pickup rewards and kick off, pickup rewards and kick off. Buddywing doesn't change characters gracefully, there is a reload button now but pretty positive you couldn't run a script that goes between 2 chars.
