Script to draw an image onto r/place (https://www.reddit.com/r/place/)

Is the bot not checking pixel if it has the same color first before placing? #312

I noticed that the bot sometimes would apply a color to a pixel when it already has the same color. Why is this happening? Is it because the color check only happens when a series of threads are completed?

Because the API can only get the original 1000x1000 image. The other pixels are all black.

Fuck... So there is no other option other than accepting this?

The latest updates grab the full canvas, so this shouldn't be a bug anymore (if it was)

I added some code to save a copy of what the script grabs & the most recent run it saved this:

04-03-2022_16-50-23

So... not only the original anymore, yesterday's versions did only have the 1000x1000.

I'm thinking that the bot might actually have some weird hidden issue with it where it can't correctly parse and output the new colors to each pixel.

I'm currently trying to figure it out b/c it's not too good of a bot if it can't draw the thing it's trying to draw.
