I brought this up a while back, but I hadn't been paying enough attention to be able to fully explain what I meant.

For some reason when in the Attic it goes a bit like this:

'Buying attic item'
'Waiting 9 seconds'
Log: Item Missed (why is this occurring here and not after the 'buy' and before the 'wait'?)
'Buying attic item'
Waiting 10.3 seconds'
Log: Item missed

This is with the attic timings set to 1-4 seconds. So the 'wait' period is taken from the general shop settings...and I'm not even sure where that comes into play...I'm assuming when refreshing the attic to check whether it's stocked? However, when it is stocked surely you would want faster timings not slower timings (like the general shop refresh rate).

My suggestion is that it be more like the process in general shops, with a standard 'wait time' between a successful buy and another attempt and a much quicker wait time between an unsuccessful buy and another attempt...


[Edited to add, the statement below is incorrect..]
ALSO...Abrosia seems to leave the attic automatically at the 59th second...even if it's stocked...even if it's still full of profitable items...

Nevermind, I misread your question

2nd Edit: Abrosia only goes to attic once and starts buying from the first list it loads. Also past the 55s point there probably isn't anything of value left.

I set my general wait delay very low when I go to the attic to compensate for this, and reset it to my standard when I go back to main shops. Otherwise it will wait my standard refresh time between buy attempts which is unacceptable. I have deduced that it only relies on the wait delay after attempting a purchase. All other times, even during the restock period it seems to go off the attic page delay.

You can't even set to to visit the attic longer than 59, unfortunately. It gives an error.

Edit: typo.

I usually just set Abrosia running when I go to sleep (I can't AB during the day here really, since there aren't enough offpeak RS's to keep the shops turning over nicely) and have it scheduled to go for a couple of hours on and off. So I'm not around to change settings before an Attic visit...would be good to just see it adjusted.

Also, while I'm here, Abrosia and Program Manager are crashing A LOT at the moment, not sure if something has changed? I haven't got logs, but if I started posting them you guys would be inundated with 1,000,000 logs...plus the majority of them are Apple ones rather than Codex ones. :)

I've had no problems with Abrosia or the Program Manager lately /unless it was because of my internet being funky cX/ o: ~~

Unless you believe that it may not be the program's fault, you should probably post the errors in the Bug Tracker though o:
