Macro detection

[EvoMike]

hey so just curious , i know alot of players use a macro creator to do simple tasks like teleport alch, alch, and even some skilling .

i was thinking of making a macro recording for like an hour of me doing some bank skilling, im curious can jagex actually detect the macro  playing? or is it more of a they can monitor your mouse movements/clicks and ban you based off repetitiveness ? 

because hoenstly an hour long macro recording of say fletching, making wines, or alching would have authentically random mouse movements and clicks over the course of an hour, so would one say that may actually be safer than running a common script ?

I used a macro on my phone for days straight, cooking, fishing, firemaking etc But when i used bot for one day, oof perm ban.

So yes probably.

I heared that if what they look at usage of F-keys, mouse movement etc when deciding if someone got an infernal cape by himself or was helped. So thats what they probally use to decide if someone is a bot or nah, if it differs from what the user normally does then probally its a bot. So recording ur own movement would probally be the best option yes.

Macro recorders are quite good, just dont run alching non stop for 3 hours. I think what gets people banned is getting greedy with how long and how efficient they can run their macros

Assuming you record 1 hours worth of gameplay, then repeatedly run that hours worth of gameplay, they would be able to compare clicks from the first hour to the second one surely and see that there's an extreme resemblance in mouse movement/interactions? Just a thought

Using nothing but my own homebrew macro recorder, I was able to get 99 fletching botting 6 - 12 hours per day. The recording was 55 minutes long, and I still have the account a year later. Got nearly 90 crafting using the same approach.
