Introduction
Hi all. I'm new here, so I figured I'd give a bit of background about myself.
I'm a software engineer by trade (graduated with a CS degree several years ago and work full-time as a software engineer) and used to play a ton of Runescape. In the past, I've tried to get into script development, but always got sidetracked and gave up without producing anything.
This time, I'm hoping to see it through by setting some short and long term goals to keep me motivated.
I have experience in Java, although it's been a few years since I've used it; however, the OSBot devs did a great job with the API so I don't think it'll be too long till I'm making progress.
Short Term Goals
Develop script that can do tutorial island (DONE)
This should give me a lot of practice as it's doing a large variety of tasks
In order to not jump into this entirely blind, I've been looking at some open source tutorial island scripts as well (shout out to @lisabe96's RQ Tutorial Island Completer)
This may end up being trashed if the ban rate is too high, but either way the scripting experience will be valuable.
Write script to mine clay (DONE - With caveat. See Week 1 updates for more info)
Build infrastructure to facilitate combining scripts well, and combine tutorial island + clay miner (DONE)
This will aid in the future as I hope to have bots complete prerequisites, and then automatically jump to gold farming once those are finished
Build script to automatically mule
F2P Fishing Script (V1 Done, still a WIP to improve it to a gold-farm ready script)
10 mill automatically farmed and muled
MySQL Server for managing bots and facilitating communication between them (see update for 9/25 for more info)
Long Term Goals
Automatic account replacement as they're banned
Alerts (via email, twitter, or text message) when something seems off
Profit in the black (should be a relatively quick one to complete as I won't be paying too much on servers at the start)
Communication between bots (so I don't end up with to many on the same world, or to alert others should something go wrong (e.g. JMod in a certain world)
100m profit
