The bot thinks you have damaged kad feeding nodes. There's an error somewhere in parsing.

 

Are you using the premium bar?

I'm using a the premium bar. I only really shut it off to autobuy and don't do that when trying to feed.

[mintpro]

A blacklist for unbuyable Kad foods would be handy. You could type in item names which would be skipped when the feeder checks the kads. Also starting the checking/feeding from the bottom right corner would help especially with mini restocks.

It already blacklists unbuyable kad foods.

 

Could you elaborate on:

Also starting the checking/feeding from the bottom right corner would help especially with mini restocks.

[mintpro]

If I've understood correctly, the Kad feeder checks/tries to feed Kads starting from the top left corner:

 

1 2 3 4

5 6 7 8

etc.

 

I suggest that the program could inverse that checking and start from the bottom right corner

 

etc.

8 7 6 5

4 3 2 1

 

I think it would speed up the process even more because the unbuyable food/Kad combinations are at the top, so the program wouldn't even had to check those before trying to feed buyable foods.

 

edit: Also, during main restocks parsing/checking if the program actually succeeded to feed a Kad and stopping would be a nice feature. ("Hooray... you've succesfully fed...")

It only seems that the unbuyables are at the top due to Neopet's ordering of unfed to fed and generally all of the buyable kad's having being fed. When the kad area is cleared however, it is random and the unbuyables will have already been skipped.

 

For your edit remarks I would have to agree. the kad feeder needs more work but managing to feed them is a large amount of luck even with an auto feeder so I haven't had much development time put into it.

I just ran it. Same thing as before.

Freeze rate, has anyone been frozen for using this recently?

[Turkeyducks]

These look like great programs, but I have a few questions. Am I right in assuming that the program searches for items based on the order in which they appear on your list? Also, is there a limit to how many items you can search for? I'm trying to use the money tree grabber, which was working wonderfully earlier, but now I keep getting errors. My list is huge, but even when I shorten it I'm getting errors.

 

Another great feature would be if you could delete the list. Right now it only lets me add addition items, not remove the ones that I already have. I accidentally added a few junk items to my list, and removing them has been a huge pain.

 

Finally, does anyone know if the default 'wait before grab' time is safe? 100 ms to 200 ms seems kinda fast.

Update your copy to the latest version (0.8.11.4) as of the time I'm posting this.

No freeze has ever been reported.

It does indeed search in order of the list. There is no order. I made a list of 20,000 random names and I had no errors besides duplicate keys (I'll fix this next time I get a chance -- once again I get about an hour a week to work on this project).

 

You can the entire list by selecting an item, pressing ctrl-a then hitting delete on your keyboard or alternatively selecting one and hitting delete on your keyboard.

What is the best settings for the Kad Feeder?

[Faintingcow]

How does the bidding work with the auction sniper? Does it bid a smaller number over the max bid? Or does it do the maximum?

Smallest increment it can for maximum profit.

The login is bugged in the latest version (v0.8.11.4). Previous versions have worked fine.

^ I'm getting the same error.

[Valorous]

Try with the new version and let me know if anything changes.

[kwed5d]

To update to the new version do I have to re-download the updated program, or is there an update I can download and apply to the folder I have your wonderful program installed in?

 

If you don't have the time don't worry about reading the rest of this.

By the way auction sniper is awesome, only thing I have noticed is that sometimes it buys things saying I will have, say, 10,000 profit when actually the profit comes out to be close to nothing (like ~100). I was wondering, to find the estimated value does the program go into the neocodex database or does it find it using the shop wizard? If it takes the shop wizard route is there a way to make it use the super shop wizard for just a selected group of items?

[Turkeyducks]

I redownloaded the program and am still getting the same errors.

 

Thanks for all your work though, this is one of my favorite programs. It's amazing when it works properly.

Redownload it. All you need to do is replace the "ValorousNeopetsSuite.exe" file with the new one.

 

The software uses a centralized database for shop wizard data. This data is populated by the users by finding it with the shop wizard and reporting it's finds anonymously.

 

 

I redownloaded the program and am still getting the same errors.

Log into your account and delete all of your neomails from theneopetsteam (or whatever their account is). If it doesn't work after that I'm going to need a screenshot until I finish my anonymous error reporting system.

Thank you so much for this program!  Going to try it now and see how it works  +rep

[Valorous]

All of the login errors should now be fixed with the new version.

 

The Kad Feeder requires you to have the default Neopets layout.

[Turkeyducks]

The program seems to be working flawlessly now. I've managed to get several codestones, faeries, and map pieces from the money tree. Thanks for the update!

How long do you keep the program running for?

[Ninfia]

very wonderful program~ thank you sooo much for this. i had a money tree grabbing program before, but it would lag so much and not accept the change in time - it just plain stopped working

 

thank you so much~

 

one question:

is the wait time the most ideal, or is there anything better i should enter?
