What to do what to see

June 19, 20196 yr

Wanted to introduce myself, you can call me skid.

I think I found my new hobby! I am sitting here enjoying some nice scotch watching my script kill cows.

This weekend I finally gave in to all these ads about being able to play runescape on mobile. Having played runescape extensively in middle school I couldn't help but give in to the nostalgia and played through tutorial island on my phone.

After a while I said hell I will just play a bit and started playing on my computer. Then I thought, well hell why not play multiple accounts at a time to keep my mind stimulated. Fast forward and I am playing four accounts at once while listening to podcast. I thought again, why not automate this so I started googling and came across this community. A little reading of OSBot's API and lurking this forum for code examples and I was on my way!

Full disclosure, I have been a self-taught software engineer for the last three years or so and just started picking up Java as part of a new job so it didn't take a lot to come up with something that worked. What's the best way to get involved around here? I love the OSBot and just bought VIP so I can start running multiple bots at a time. I'd love to read some of people's more advanced scripts that they don't mind having open-sourced.

Here's my first script! It went through a few revisions. I am still trying to understand how to best organize code around OSBot's API.

public class CowKiller {
    private MethodProvider B;
    private String[] advesaryStrings = { "Cow", "Cow calf" };

    public CowKiller(MethodProvider B) {
        this.B = B;
    }

    public void execute() throws InterruptedException {
        while(lifeSafe()) {
            if (B.getSettings().getRunEnergy() > 20) {
                run();
            }
            NPC advesary = getAdvesary();
            attack(advesary);
        }
        run();
        B.getWalking().walk(Banks.LUMBRIDGE_LOWER);
    }

    private void attack(NPC advesary) throws InterruptedException {
        B.log("Attacking advesary!!!!!!!!!!!!!!");
        while(attackCondition(advesary) && lifeSafe()) {
            B.log("attacking the cow");
            advesary.interact("Attack");
            B.sleep(B.random(1000, 5000));
        }
    }

    private NPC getAdvesary() {
        return B.getNpcs().closest(npc -> attackable(npc));
    }

    private boolean attackable(NPC advesary) {
        return wantedAdvesary(advesary) &&
                advesary.getInteracting() == null &&
                !advesary.isUnderAttack() &&
                !advesary.isHitBarVisible() &&
                B.getMap().canReach(advesary);
    }

    private boolean lifeSafe() {
        return B.skills.getDynamic(Skill.HITPOINTS) > 10;
    }

    private boolean attackCondition(NPC advesary) {
        return advesary.exists() && advesary.isAttackable();
    }

    private void run() {
        B.getSettings().setRunning(true);
    }

    private boolean wantedAdvesary(NPC advesary) {
        for (String advesaryString : advesaryStrings) {
            if (advesary.getName().equals(advesaryString)) {
                return true;
            }
        }
        return false;
    }
}

I think that's enough for an introduction, cheers!
