No discovery or server folder in boundless folder on Mac client. :frowning: Saying prototype creative mode is ready on PC is misleading. I have debug mode but can’t access it.

Oh no, I was wondering if lua scripting was going to be a thing I could get my hands dirty with… hi from another Mac user!

Gotta add a huge, huge :+1: on how the chat changes have gone - the universal channels have just added so much now, being able to ask questions, trade, offer and ask for exo rides, just be social - it really is a great thing IMO. :slight_smile:

Can someone help me understand what botting is in boundless? In other games I played Botting was like , having many characters all stacked up and then they all attacked things together…like gold farmers.

What is botting in boundless?

Using an automated program to do things in game without the players input.

One example would include a macro that automatically hits gleam with a hammer and throws regen bombs on a repeating cycle. Such macros are unfair to people who do the same legitimately, and as such have now been officially banned.

The only exception is macros that allow disabled people to play when they otherwise wouldn’t be able to properly.

by botting is meant only fully automated farming or even this one ?


because I don’t mine otherwise anymore

Playing many characters at once is called multiboxing. Botting is about the automation of gameplay. You may need a certain degree of automation to be able to multibox of course, but botting in itself doesn’t rely multiple characters.

Just think botting = bot = robot. If a robot (not you, but a series of code or whatever) is doing something, then it’s considered botting.

If you can walk away from your computer whilst your character is still able to do multiple actions, that’s botting :slight_smile:

What if it’s other characters controlled by the input of one character? Like alts multiboxing, I mean. Wouldn’t that mean the alts following and being run by someone not directly playing them are bots too?
Genuine question
Edit: oh, I see it’s been mentioned already, lol.

Well that’s called multiboxing, as you said, so that overrides the need of naming it botting. But I think because you’re controlling what happens in real time, its not classed as botting?

I’d personally consider it some form of botting and is pretty BM (bad manners) depending what you’re doing with the characters. But I think the only real benefit of mulitboxing is hunting, or Lovestruck trading :laughing:

That makes sense, lol. Ugh, you ever have like this perfectly thought-out wording for a question and it exactly expresses what you want to ask but then you do a dab and your question ends up coming out not even close to what you wanted it to be? :woman_facepalming:t4:
