help botting bot
Syntax: bot <start/stop/cancel> Botting is defined as using a client's triggers to automate your character. Players on LOTJ must be monitoring their screen and be ready to respond to a 'bot check' UNLESS they are using the BOT command in conjunction with certain skills. These skills are: buildship, decrypt_file, develop, encrypt_file, makearmor, ponder, research, secure, slice, and study. Triggering any commands besides those listed above while using the BOT command is against the rules. THE BOT FLAG The bot command will give a character the [BOTTING] flag and can be used for two hours at a time, at which point you will be given the [COOLDOWN] flag and automatically be set to AFK. After 30 minutes, players can use the bot command again. The [BOTTING] flag does not protect your character like the AFK flag does. Other players are able to steal from you, drag you around, or even kill you (normal perm rules apply) while you are botting. BOT CHECKS If the staff believes you are illegally botting, you may get a bot check through the immchat channel. We'll try a few times over a couple minutes - all you need to do is respond on immchat to let us know you are there. Players found violating our bot rules are subject to punishment. Punishments will vary based on the number of recent infractions and can range anywhere from a simple AFKing with warning, to a helling, to a temporary ban. It's important to understand these rules if you are automating aspects of LOTJ with your client. Please reach out to RPC or IMMCHAT with questions.
