I have noticed an increasing number of other bots while gathering.
My suggestion of a plugin, is a plugin that will engage combat when someone try to ninja an ore vein or herb gather. It would also engage combbat when WE try to ninja someone else's nodes.
Reasons:
1 - There are many level 80 chars botting in uldum or hyjal (WOTLK account). Those are easily killed
2 - Many bots have a poor combat routine
3 - Some bots will use spirit healer rez after dying (that would give us a 10 min free of that botter)
4 - Some bots will bug if killed (bad pathing issues)
5 - Honorbuddy has some classes and CC that are really very nice in PVP... sometimes even better than most real-players. (e.g. ShamWOW).
6 - Anyone that would use this plugin, would gear the bot to high PVP survivability... most bots or players use PVE gear.
7 - This would add some fun for people to like to "watch" the bot playing... (just like me), adding some world PVP to the bot stuff!
Plugin logic would be something like this:
1) Is there an herb node or ore node within 10 yards?
NO -> exit
YES -> Is player X levels below me? OR is player health < Y?
NO -> exit
YES -> Is this player class X?
YES -> exit
NO -> Are there any other enemy players nearby?
YES -> exit
NO -> Am I already in combat?
YES -> exit
NO -> Is my health > 90%
NO -> exit
YES -> engage combat
This plugin would be very useful to kill bots or low-level players that ninja our nodes while gathering.
Another possible use of this (with some improvement at the code), would be to do something just like the "rare mob killer", but it would gank players while botting, instead. While farming or Arch'ing, the bot would kill low level players... It would need some different checks to avoid killing players at dangerous or guarded zones, but that would be not difficult to implement (example: check for other humanoids in range). Then it would be "the ganker" plugin.
I would code it myself if I just had the knowledge in programming... If anyone decides to code such thing, I may serve as alpha-tester.
That's it guys!
