Turn off bot after X amount of time

[araza11]

Turn off bot after X amount of time, is this feature available?

you can do it via Arelog

You can also use Task Scheduler -

You'd have to open up a notepad file, then do

@ echo off
Taskkill /IM Demonbuddy.exe
Taskkill /IM "Diablo III.exe"

Save As anything.bat (just has to be saved as a bat file)

Then use built in Windows Task Scheduler to run that .bat file at any time you want, and it will kill the bot and D3.

May not be the best solution but works perfectly for me.

A simpler way is to make a special shortcut: http://www.thebuddyforum.com/demonbuddy-forum/demonbuddy-guides/56421-starting-demonbuddy-style.html

Basically, make a shortcut of DB, then in the shortcut properties, edit the target to contain the options you want. For example, to just have it run for 2 hours, it would look something like this:

"C:\Demonbuddy 1.0.952.222\Demonbuddy.exe" -minutes 120

or you could have it only do 10 runs of your profile:

"C:\Demonbuddy 1.0.952.222\Demonbuddy.exe" -runcount 10

Hope this helps!

I think it is a good idea and should be built-in somewhere in the settings. Tony I know you are right, Arelog does that. However, Bat files are not very user-friendly. Along some plugins it's not easy to use. I did use it quite some time but now with the Giles Combat Routines I did not even got it to work, I gave up and do the "dirty" job myself.

It's been used in Honorbuddy for quite some time now via a plugin. I'm pretty sure you guys have the talent/power to make it quick and easy.

It would be awesome!!

Tony, I've been looking at this with Arelogger too, but I haven't had a chance to really check it out and see if it works yet. If I use the scheduler and set the time in hours to 15, does that mean I can have it bot for 15 hours, close diablo for 9 hours, and then it will launch again and play for 15 hours and repeat the whole process again?

yes you can have that kind of combinations with Arelog
