SDN improvements plan

[Maxi]

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.

sounds amazing glad there are some updates coming

[Jack]

So we can still sell scripts? Do we get paid per script dl?

If it turns into like a 3 runs max per script, this is SO dissapointing.

Script instancing, will help minimize gold farming/crashing of certain methods.

[Peter]

Gold farmers on OSBot will rage.

Gold farmers on OSBot will rage.

i only run 7 accounts, so not really a huge farm, but this WILL ruin osbot for my sole use.

Not necessarily, depends on the decision the Script Writer makes, not everything will be instanced.

like if you have a script that makes a sh**load of gp per hour and you dont want the method to inflate or be overused.

So this scripts you're talking about is for the SDN not for local host?
