  1. Dear community, It has been a while since we released the SDN and we were happy that we were able to launch the platform. The SDN has many upsides as it provides a secure platform that is easy to access by users of OSBot to buy and/or add scripts to the script selection, but also has some downsides. The major downside of how the SDN is organized is that it requires a lot of contact between developers and the administration team to add scripts to the SDN, mostly through IM services like Skype. But to communicate over Skype people need to be online at the same time and also the administration team has tasks to complete that sometimes require some priority. To summarize the problem, the administration team is not able to schedule their work together with the tasks of adding scripts to the SDN. We have thought about several possibilities to make this process easier. The easiest thing to do would be to write a web interface where everything is automated. You submit your script, a connection is made with a server and the server executes all logic required to add the script. However this would create a solution where there is no verification of scripts leaving a security gap, besides the fact that IPB has made things complicated with encryption and obfuscation of some of their files to certain formats on how to store information in the database. So that thought quickly vanished. It was clear to us that no matter what human interaction will remain required, so we took the road of thinking how to cut out the communication through IM services. And here is what we will do: If you are a developer and you want to have your script added to the SDN, you will be able to go to a webpage where you will provide the necessary information to us to add the script to the SDN. This information will be send as an email to a certain address and any communication will be through email after that instead of Skype. The script will get added to the SDN privately and will not be visible for anyone. When this has happened, an anonymous group of users (around 10 people) will test the script to see if it meets the quality standard sought after. Once enough feedback has brought back in about a script, a verdict will be made and if positive the script will be made public and will be available for everyone in the store to add to their collection. The same will happen for update notification of scripts. We will release a page where you will be able to see all the scripts you have on the SDN. If you require a script to be updated, you can request an update and the system will send an email notification to us. By doing the above we hope to be able to start adding scripts to the SDN at a much higher and efficient rate than before. Besides all of the above, we will introduce the possibility of limiting the amount of bots per script bought at one time for any developer who wants to have a certain control over the amount of bots botting a certain activity. Thanks for reading, OSBot.org

  2. The bot client itself couldn't do this. You had a script running or it didn't happen. :p

  3. Let me explain the mentioned instancing to everyone who is not in the clear about it: Limiting the amount of bots your can run on one purchased instance will mean that for a certain script you buy you will only be able to run a certain amount of bots per instance you bought of that script. An example would be like this: Script developer X created a script which has a money making method making 500k an hour. However, if a 1000 bots would be botting the method it would make little to no cash anymore, rendering the sales of that script to zero and the method useless. The developer is then able to decide he wants to limit the amount of bots per bought instance to for example 4. If someone, whether it is a goldfarmer or not, wants to bot this method with 8 accounts this person will have to buy the script twice. Instancing will not affect any currently processed sales and will be SDN only and the administration team will not be in charge of those decisions, the developers will be. It will most likely not be applied to most scripts, but if a developer like mentioned in the example has a very decent money making method he wants to protect and control the usage of it we simply have a method of supporting this.

  5. For those of you who don't know, RuneLocus has a wonderful Item, Object, Interface, and NPC ID list. It seems to be a popular question in the chat, so to make it easier I'm just going to post this thread. There's probably already a thread with all this on it which @ledzeppelin will notify me of in the first reply...but here RuneScape Item ID List | Runelocus RuneScape Object ID List | Runelocus RuneScape Interface ID List | Runelocus RuneScape NPC ID List | Runelocus Enjoy

  6. This release features a patch to Freaky Forester and the Run Away From Combat handler. Freaky Forester was again misinterpreting the dialogue telling us which tailed Pheasant to kill. This should however no longer happen. Expect more releases soon, Maxi is back from France and we should be able to get back to work fully. Thanks, Sincerely, Laz and the OSBot Team.

  13. I think Live Chat provides a perfect mix of a way to support people and also a way to relax and have fun. Honestly the questions they ask are so simple and basic, it may only take up to a minute to help someone every once and a while. Help should always be allowed in my opinion.
