No botting, unattended automation, or complex keybinds

[Teddy]

Hola Señores,

In light of recent events we are amending our policy to allow keybinds in order to remove stupidity from the server.

- You are not permitted to use keybinds as a form of botting. While keybinds are running, the player MUST be present at the computer and awake.
- You are not permitted to create keybinds or programs with allow for unattended automation of tasks.
- You are not permitted to create keybinds which are complex enough to span over 30 seconds of automated activity, interaction, or any other applicable action.

Summary:

- You must be present when keybinds are running.
- You cannot create keybinds which run for more than 30 seconds per activation.

Fair enough! 

[TiMoN]

its a shame we arent advanced enough yet to use common sense

[FARQ3X]

So a basic keybind where you press a button and a command appears is still allowed right?

Yes.

So if I have a keybinds that writes a t/producemeth and after 1 minute t/td, I'm no longer allowed to use it?

Correct.

[Stivi]

Correct.

Right, that kinda sucks as I'm not creating a script that does everything for me, I still have to type the necessary commands. And I'm guessing I'm not allowed to make a script that if I type t/td after 30 seconds it will t/td again?

Sorry, but isn't a keybind something that you press the button and it types for you? So... you aren't typing the necessary commands at all.

Or did I miss something?

I assume they're referring to the botting which does everything for you. Normal keybinds such as *pressing numpad 7* to insert "/me places his hands on his holster" is fine.

A lot of you have been extremely money hungry when it comes to producing meth, and in my opinion the script is giving way too much out. Continuing to use keybinds/bots for meth production from this point onwards is just plain greedy. It's like RS4 all over again, everyone with bottomless bank accounts.

Stop avoiding the risks that were implemented, it's part of the fun.

Yes, but if you have seen the unban request boards, some people were pressing a key and letting the same keybinds run for 8 hours straight. I use keybinds when producing meth for the sole purpose of not fucking up by typing red fosphorus, or another typo, and blowing up.

I believe as long as you tap the key it's okay, you could sit there for 10 hours making meth, provided you're at your desk pressing the button at the right time to type the command. It's the automated scripts you can leave they don't want.

Yeah that's what I do. I also had added some kind of a reminder that after 60 seconds it would type a /td, so that I could remember I have to add the next ingredient xd

Try using /timestamp and just keep it on, might make it easier for you in that respect
