It didn't upload for some reason. It's fixed now though.

[gotvacien]

i have another suggestion is have either your starting neopoints or the difference from starting or both beside the current neopoint log so people know how much they made/spent on a session

[mintpro]

 

New update:

- AuctionSniper now has configurable price margins multipliers.

- ShapeShifter Solver now has a run time multiplier.

- Version 0.8.31.0

 

Just to make sure I understand the run time multiplier correctly:

 

• What's the default time out?
• When running with laptop or other low-CPU computer, I should make the multiplier bigger (than one) if I wanted to use more time to solve the puzzle, right?

i believe its like 30 mins or an hour and yes increasing the multiple will make it try and solve it longer the default 1.0 was getting issues on my laptops core 2 duo at about level 70 but after i made it about 2.0 it was solving 84+ without issues i haven't set up my old p4 desktops to run my bots yet so i cant give you times on that but my main issue is i dont have a wireless card in those desktops and/or a long enough wire to run to the router as i moved since i had them set up when i used them all the time for my diablo 2 and runescape bots but that stopped making me money a while ago and im a bit drunk so im running on a tangent that has nothing to do with what your talking about sorry

I could not find an answer for this, but it's possible I missed it. If you do not have enough nps on hand to complete a faerie quest does it automatically abandon it for you? I didn't realize I hadn't disabled the AutoQuester and it searched for an item but when I checked Neopets, I had no quests. I was just wondering if it quit the quest or if it was an error.

Can you make it deposit everything when the inventory is full?

Would come in handy for rubbish and packrat avi

 

It's on my to-do list.

Default timeout is determined by the complexity.

Bigger multiplier increases the timeout multiplicatively.

Yes it abandons it.

When you load an item from a list for the Auction Sniper, it won't ignore duplicate items like the Money Tree Grabber, e.g.:

 

John
Smith
Lane
John
Fred

 

Is that intended?

No. It's fixed now.

I have a new problem with the Kitchen Quest bot.

 

It's not a huge problem though.

 

For me it doesn't stop when the daily quest limit has been reached. It will keep trying to do quests and I get the message 'KitchenQuest: No kitchen quest items?'.

 

I have 111 messages of 'Daily Quest Limit Reached'.

This should now be corrected.

 

I'm considering utilizing ClickOnce deploy for this Suite. It will automatically keep the software up to date but some complexity will be added if running multiple copies are something you wish.

Hi Valorous.  Downloaded the newest file and I'm still getting the same error:

SQL logic error or missing database

no such table: SuiteSettings.

when I try to run the mtg.  The kad feeder seems to work, and it's contributing prices to the database.  Any ideas on what I can do?

Delete your ValorousDatabase.db file. It will make a new one with default settings.

Yes. That puzzle is base two and frequently highly intensive due to it's complex calculation tree.

 

Divide 1.37x10^25 (1370000000000000000000000000) by 3.8 billion and you have a best-worst-case scenario of 360,526,315,789,473,684.21052631578947 seconds. An amount of time that eclipses the existence of the earth.

 

Good thing the algorithm doesn't try to brute force this huh?

Wait until you see some of the even more complicated ones.

 

 

 

Just tried this.  Still getting the error.

 

I'll send you a PM...

 

 

EDIT: Fixed it.

I'm just gonna throw out a guess and say ShapeShifter is NP complete

 

So what's my best method of action here? Just have it grab a new puzzle?

Let it run. It will automatically expire a puzzle after a determined amount of time and get a new one.

Is there a way to change the amount of time it expires or is it going to be stuck at an hour?

"Puzzle Runtime Multiplier"

Hovering over the text field tells you to increase if you have a slow computer.

 

In 99.99% of all cases if you have a quad core you're better off leaving this at 1.0.

I think there's something wrong with the shop till withdrawal. During auction sniping, the program reports multiple times that it has withdrawn NP from the till (always the same amount), but when I check manually the NP is still there. And yes my shop is PIN protected, but I'm pretty sure that I typed my PIN correctly during login.

What is a list of the things (and URLs) that uses a PIN? I may have forgotten to implement it.

Let me know how the latest update goes.

 

I feel compelled to let everyone know that after extremely hard testing of this Suite nearly all of my shells have been frozen. 26/33 of my shells were frozen after a 3 day long queue was executed on them trying to see what it takes to get frozen while using my Suite. I lost roughly half a billion neopoints in the process but it's good to know what it takes!

 

 

Summary: You'll get frozen if you run bots for 72 hours straight.

[Mandie]

*runs for 71 hours straight instead*

 

Sorry about the loss of shells! Great programs!
