Is there anyone who wants to learn who to write a osrs bot with me? i am a beginner and know some very basic java and want to learn along side someone

Okay so after a few months lurking around, and the last month being more active, reading up on tutorials, Java in general, posting questions to learn more etc i've decided to start my own thread for my own Progress goal. Some bakground: I'm a 24 year old guy from Sweden, started gaming at like the age of 8 or 9, and since then my computer has always been my number 1 joy in life, it's kinda crazy how much i actually enjoy spending time on my computer lulz, anyways. I used to play alot of Poker, NLHE, made my way onto 2.5/5 stakes, climbed to 5/10 some times aswell on the swedish site SVS, made a decent profit, but eventually got kinda demotivated as poker is dying out as a whole, due to fish (term for bad players) not coming into the game with the same influx that it used to, aswell as not really being able to se myself as pokerplayer 5->10-15 years from now on, by other words, it was a nice way for me to earn money at the computer, while also improving my math skills, logical thinking and self reflection. But the emotional stress it caused, litterary made me punch a hole through my desk. After changed were made to the site, changed their shitty GUI to an even worse GUI that didn't allow HM, (program for data tracking, HUD of stats etc) i decided to call it quits, poker had been great but there was no real future for me. All in all it was a great year, with me spending the summer infront of the computer with my best friend, smoking weed the entire day, chasing fishes until 5am, passing out, waking up at 11am, W&B-> hit the gym-> join the tables -> repeat. So where to go from here: So since i've always loved to actually strive and work towards goals, my natural tendency was to search for something else, something which had a future, something which would have me develop skills that i would benefit from for the rest of my life, so many times have i thought to myself, "Shit i should've started doing that earlier", or "Shit i shouldn't have quit that". There's no redoing in life, What's done is done, therefore and i attribute that alot to poker, i really tend to try to envision everything super longterm, aswell as having a process oriented focus, rather than a results based, (Try having a results based thinking in poker, and you'll go mental within a couple of days lulz). I've tried youtube, i've tried poker, i've tried writing, i've tried webb developing, i've tried so many thing, but what have always been my foundation has been that i want to have a job that let's me work from anywhere in the world, aslong as there's internet connection, No boss supervision(I really despise the thought of me working for someone and me only earning x amount of % of what i produce, rather than me earning the full 100% of my production means) And that it allows me to make BANK irl. Therefore you'll probably see that all these kind of "Jobs" i decided to try out, actually follows this pattern. Anyways so after a semester of maths and physics course in my community college, i started to develop a love for simpifying my homework with equations and formulas by programming my calculator Ti-84 to do all the calculations, and just prompting the values. It was also super helpful due to the fact that it forced me to work with the equations, rather than just mindless numbercrunching and to understand how to reorganize the formulas to get the correct answer. And that's where i started to get into programming. So at the Mid of june (when the courses ended) i decided to try and develop real programming skills, rather than just programming formulas into my calculator. A few years ago while still in high school i took a course in C#, and i distinctly remember hating object orientation, angle brackets, Classes and all there was to it. But this time my mindset was diffrent, First of all i strongly belive there is no such thing as funny, or boring - Cause what is really something objectivly boring? or objectivly funny? There is nothing, right. It's all subjective feelings that we apply, and if somethings subjective that essentially means that WE get to choose how we feel about it and that is a crazily fucking powerful thing, Of course every task is going to have different feelings that is conditioned to it with neurons, but neuroplasticity makes it not being permanent, it's going to take time, but it's never permanent, and that's the key! Shit i've changed feelings about tasks so many times it's dumb, i've even come to love the constant rain in the swedish summer for it allows me to spend the time inside at my computer to learn more about programming. The second thing is that i felt that there were some actual areas where i could apply my programming (Rs07) while still learning and that really helped me to push through the mental barriers which i previously had while trying to learn Java(i've tried to learn it sooo many times, for a couple of days, and then just end up leaving it due to the high learning curve i felt it had, and the time it would take for me to actually learn it) So this time i've actually pushed through for what i belive to be was the(for now) hardest part, as i've got most of the fundamentals down, which was what i struggled with the most while trying to learn Java. At the time of writing this i've written about, 10-15 scripts that for the most part gets the job done, (1-2 that i feel are decent enough to actually publish for others to use someday, still using these as my personal money makers, and can pretty much run these without problems). I've read, 277 pages in Head first Java, and pretty much all of the tutorials in tutorial section, i've read countless script help post to se common problems, solutions, aswell as reading many of the posts in the Snippets section to try and se how others write their script, and solutions to problems that i face. So my current short term goals atm are: *Learn more about OOP - strictly speaking - Inheritance, and implementation of it to being able to make use of Object orientation more smoothly. Scheduled to spend Today -> 5th or 6th of August on it. *Learn more about State Logic - Sometimes i feel i have troubles formulating the correct , if and else statements to make for good code, and i think this is what @Alek meant when he told me it'd be a good steping stone. *Learn more about GUI - Haven't spend more than 5 minutes trying to learn it, so all my scripts are without a GUI, and while the scripts work, it'd be nice to have a GUI for some scripts, to mabye get xp/h etc without having to do manual calculations each time. * Figure out some more ways to bot gold - currently have a few, one with like 800k gp/h without much reqs, but require a shitton of gold, aswell as being pretty caped, but with pretty much 0 banrate, aswell as one with 350kgp/h without any reqs but semi high banrate... I can bot for like 5-6/h a day without bans, but any more than that and the bots gets taken out, which kinda sucks, aswell as not really super scaleable. My mid term goals are: * Learn all the foundations in Java, threads, exceptions, GUI's, Lambdas, Collections, Streams, anonymous classes etc etc. * Have a botfarm of atleast 5bots running 24/7 with atleast 500kgold/h. And yeh here i'll probably have 15 bots, that each run 8h/day, and rotate between them. * Make an AIO questing script, Release version of all F2P quests to Osbot for free - Mostly to learn good OO practices * Make a progressive Slayer Script for leveling accounts and semi decent money maker. My long term goals are: *Become alot more proefficent at Java *Build a new computer, or possibly even server, strictly for botting use. * Make a personal raid script - I remember the old dungeonering script, so should be doable with enough experience *Start selling gold So yeh i guess this was my introduction post, these goals are going to be edited, and added whenever i figure something new out that i'd want to learn, but atm im pretty tired, so these will have to do for now. So for now im going to be working on my OOP Skills, I'll post the links of the stuff that i use and probably a summary of what i've learnt from it, so in the case i have understood something wrong you guys can correct me. Also, I love feedback, it's pure gold to me, so whenever you se something which is wrong, or information that can be added to what i've written, ALWAYS feel free to correct me or add infomation that i've might've missed or not learnt correctly. PS. i munch Notropics like a motherfucker!! Jokes aside i've tried Piracetam, Noopept, Idra-21, Phenylpiracteam, Oxiracetam, Aniracetam, PRL-8-53, NSI-189, Adrafinil and much more, so if you're interested in that kind of stuff, feel free to ask about it, or post your experiences, as i find this stuff really fascinating, but Longecity can be a bit boring.
