An idea for archaeology bot

[greendream]

I'm an alchemist and I want the recipe from Uldum. I was thinking that a feature might be added to archaeology bot to have a preference for certain areas. For example, there are several dig sites on the continent, and after i finish digging one up, one in Uldum spawns. The bot would know I have Uldum as a preference, so it would go there first.

I'm not exactly sure if each dig site can ONLY be a certain race artifact, or if it can switch between a few, but maybe there could be an option for only fossil for example. (I dont really care about that as if blizz checked solve history it would only be that one race... idk if they can do that, but im assuming they can). And why doesn't it auto train to 525?

First of all, this have been suggested a lot of times.
Second, it doesnt auto train up to 525 (unless you tell it to), because the experience you gain is based on the level of your character, not the level of your archaeology. That is why it's nice to bot from level 70 (fast flying mount) to level 85, although if you train higher than skill level 375 dig sites will appear in cataclysm areas, that is why you don't train archaeology beyond that. Because your level 70 will obviously die in Uldum etc.

However, you can get it to work in this manner. You can blacklist all the sites except the ones in uldum and it will do what your wanting.

But if you blacklist all but Uldum, you won't be able to get Uldum dig sites, as there is not always one in uldum. Eventually there would only be dig sites in other zones. I know a lvl 70 would die, but I think we should have the option to. Like a "if you are over level 70, click this button. If not, your face will explode" If you want your face to explode, DO IT

if all sites are blacklisted except uldum and one pops up that is NOT uldum, it'll pick the closest one and do it
