I may be missing this feature somewhere but I feel that if it doesn't exist it would be very useful. When a shop restocks and you purchase an item, you are still forced to wait your refresh time before it buys again. When manually restocking I would immediately click on that item again after my 5s lock-out to purchase a 2nd, 3rd, so on.

For example, a few moments ago the pharmacy stocked herbal scrambled eggs and my AB kicked in and bought one, "waiting 5s"(lockout) > "waiting 9.4s">buying another. Especially for lower priced items, wouldn't it be more efficient to skip the refresh timer and buy more? Manually, my refresh times are nonexistent so why would the risk involved be substantially increased?

Is there any reason it is programmed like this? Has it been proven to be extremely dangerous? If this feature already exists I apologize for the post.

You might want to look to post here as this is the official thread.

It's just the way it was programmed... it wasn't really designed in expectation of multiples stocking.

Still probably a good suggestion, so I'd put it in the thread listed above

I am as well. I managed to get 3 eggs before they sold out. It refreshed twice which cut me out of a good 2-4 buys.



15s(10s lost)
16s(11s lost)
18s(13s lost)

It would be fair to assume there's a bit of lag tossed in there but it's frustrating to think the of profit I could make in those 34s each restock.

Is there a setting I should double check I may not be aware of?
5.5-11s wait
.4-.7 pre-haggle
.6-.9 OCR
Smart Haggle

Anyway I looked over some old logs and I think he is right, to an extent. What it looks like to me is Abrosia assumes the item is sold in small quantities so it won't try to buy the same item twice in a row because it might be sold out. It tries to buy the next most profitable item on the list and refreshes once there are no more profitable items. The pharmacy restocks a small amount of items at a time so when herbal scrambled eggs is bought it searches the shop for another profitable item, which most of the time there isn't, it refreshes.

08:50:15 - Bought in 1263ms (Est. Profit: 15163 NP)
08:50:21 - Missed : Sold out!

09:02:39 - Bought in 1311ms (Est. Profit: 12325 NP)
09:02:46 - Bought 1435ms (Est. Profit: 7088 NP)

09:46:45 - Bought in 1263ms (Est. Profit: 19578 NP)
09:46:51 - Missed : Sold out!
09:46:54 - Bought in 1420ms (Est. Profit: 3790 NP)

As you can see it moves to the next unique item immediately after the 5 second wait time.

I have definitely noticed this too, and it was when I used to AB in Pharmacy. It definitely goes through your delays between buys, and it definitely causes you to miss out on some buys.

[alphadark]

I haven't noticed this at all until now but I still make profit so I'm kinda ok with it. As long as I'm not iced

[cixelsyd]

I doubt it was programmed to buy several items in one RS.....Ive noticed it too but I dont really care. As in I think it saves me from being caught as it doesnt buy AS FAST as a human would....
