When blood shard count gets high, switch characters and spend them then switch back

[JTPace]

Does anything do this? If not, this is me putting in the request!

I want the sane thing. ..


Is it possible?

I came here to ask the same thing! DB guru's please make it so

Found this thread after asking on the KadalaSpree thread. I want this too, if possible! My WD has all her gear, but she's farming for my Sader, who doesn't have her full Akkhan's set. Much love to whoever could do this!

The only problem I could see with this is that KadalaSpree works via the default town run, for people running bounties who happen to get just enough items in the inventory to do a town run it would leave the game and swap characters to buy blood shards. This could potentially mean it would never get a cache. For Rifts it would be pretty easy though, like every 4-5 rifts just have it swap and buy from Kadala.

Core mechanics wise though, not sure it's even possible with DB to be completely honest, never seen a profile or anything in the api to allow selecting characters. There would also have to be some sort of UI that detects all of your characters then lets you select which to switch to, which I also am unsure if is possible.

Will take a look at it though, maybe it's totally possible just never been done before since it's not really useful for anything else.

Edit: Yeah found out that it is possible right after posting this. There is the issue that when it joins a new game to buy shards that the bot would try to start running the profile again on your 'buy' character. Just not in the mood to try tackling this honestly. Possible, but a pain in the butt and no one will probably end up making this because of it's complexity.

I'd like to find a way to do this even with my main char that is running with trinity/quest tools. But yeah the option to switch would be cool too.

v1.1.4.0 (beta) introduces alternative hero switching!

In combination with fItemPlugin, its now possible to switch between an alternative hero to gamble blood shards. This is early development and is still being tested for bugs, but those interested can try it out.

How to set it up

In summary, you need to have the hero indexes setup (the above link shows how). After that, you set your alternative hero then in fItemPlugin settings you set the alt hero option. Finally, make sure both heroes have fItemPlugin settings and have matching blood shard count!

The behavior is pretty simple, its triggered during town run checks (only when no rift quests are active), which enables exit behavior, then hero switching, creates the next game and initializes a town run (since both heroes should have same gambling options, it should gamble on the alt hero) then it leaves the game and switches back to the main hero and resumes as normal.

fBaseXtensions needs to be enabled since it uses the pre combat behavior to exit and initiate the town runs.Trinity might still be usable as the main combat routine, however I have not tested this yet.

Feedback is appreciated always.. enjoy!
