Automated Interactions

[digitalgold]

I'm a little surprised that this doesn't exist because it doesn't seem overly complex so please forgive me if it does. How about a plugin that does a few things in an effort to look more realistic in the presence of other players. For example, if a player is nearby, say within 50 yards, the plugin targets the player and then does something innocuous like /salute or something along those lines. The idea would be to engage them but not enough to start a conversation. In the event that a player whispered you perhaps the plug responds automatically after a few seconds with "Hold on a sec. BRB" and then after 3 or 4 minutes, logs off.


I could go on and on with different things that the plugin could do in this regard but you get the jist of what im saying. I was using Jumpy and I thought the idea was great and how much more realistic my toon looks randomly jumping bcause almost everyone does that. It made me think about other things players do in the presence of others.


Thanks for the consideration.

I dont know if its a good idea.
Maybe some employees from Blizzard are looking into this forum regularly, so they can see this plugin, too and would know what it does/say.
So, maybe its easyier for them to detect you and ban you.

The only reason i know, would be to code a plugin where you can add your own replies for those things.

Could make it customizable with 20 or 30 different emotes or responses. Just a thought. I have included a /target nearest friendly player and /wave in my lure macros for a long time and imo added a nice touch to my bot setup. For me, the lack of targetting and interaction when interacted with is what gives away whether a toon is a player or a bot.

random emote every 10 mins +/- 3 mins to enemy player(so they cant whisper you)
