Sending input to the correct process when having multiple ffxiv clients open #10

Closed Toka-mk closed 2 years ago

Toka-mk commented 2 years ago

When having multiple FFXIV instances open, would it be possible to designate which process to send the inputs to, possibly via the PID?

Yeah been thinking about this feature myself, I might be able to release a version with this soon if I find the time

I would prefer it if this wasn't a thing.

Because that could have a significant impact on the crafting market well over and above the current impact that this has. At one instance its a useful tool for passive in-game income. At 2+ instances it can more easily be abused by gold farmers. Don't get me wrong this app is great! But I think it's more appropriate for 1 person, 1 account, 1 computer play.

I'd rather not see the market tank because ryzen Ricky can run 12 copies of the game and is hard-core spamming endgame crafts

While I understand the concern, reality is people who are botting like this regularly are using far more proficient bots which are available online (albeit at a cost).

If I do implement this feature however I might consider locking it to only allow for one instance of the app to be open at a time.
