ya like it should charge for 1 hour say u get to 30 minutes u stop it to do w.e the fk u want and when u start it no matter when it starts back at that 30 minutes... simple probably a little more coding for cloud but ya. and still looking for ward to ur livid farm i fkin hate farming bro someone needs to come up with a amazing way to make most exp in farming.. other then wbs i keep getting PKed lol

Hmmm, maybe splitting the payment intervals up into something smaller might be a good middle ground, like every 15mins?
With your suggestion it'd mean a lot more tracking would have to be done.

I posted a possible fix in the Livid Farm thread, give that a try.

 

[jake miler]

ya read that post about livid, i ment that ur next update im waiting on that lol right now it only gives me 22-24k farm exp an hour kinda low

Next update will probably just add the ability to add/remove tasks

 

[jake miler]

is there anyway it cud get me 30k+ farm exp an hour??? lol

i guess your right tracking of time would be an hassle but if its possible it would be the best if not i guess it should give like 30 minutes or so for you to make ur adjustments like u said

Unless it charges per hour completed. Then when you stop, it calculates the time between the last hour and stop time and then charges you for that.

 

[jake miler]

i guess that to, charging u for the time used.

and i guess theres still nothing be done by cloud about the whole taking money for stopping the bot to do few changes and starting it again eh....

To clarify publicly, each run of a bot is treated is a new instance, which is consistent with most SaaS (Software as a Service). We offer a grace period in which within the first hour of a bot execution you can stop and restart and not be charged again because it will re-attach you to the old instance. Beyond that grace period it will create a brand new instance. The best solution for changing settings during runtime is to encourage the Bot Author to allow that in the code. In fact we may start enforcing premium Bot Authors to do that, but for now ask kindly.

Sidenote: The Staff members do not and cannot read all of the thousands of posts made across all the threads in all the forums on RuneMate. We keep a close eye on certain forums like Client Support, because they are the most important. If you need our attention there are many ways to reach us, including PM, profile posts, and creating threads in the appropriate sections. For most situations the last option is the most appropriate.

What if they run it for one and a half hours, do something else for an amount of time (15 minutes, 1 hr etc.) then start the bot again?

i remember the bot z dungeon has the feature where u can pause it and make adjustments which i found to be very nice.

Hmmm, I could possibly implement something like this... Atm I can think of 2 approaches... 1 will take me a while and about 50 lines of code, the other will take me about 2 minutes and 5 lines of code. I'll try to get it done this arvo.

cool that be nice. hopefully it doesnt cause any conflicts with the efficiency of the bot.

It starts a new instance i.e. the old instance is billed and closed and a new one is started charging for the first hour. Again, consistent with most PaaSes.

Makes sense, I thought people were complaining about getting billed for the full hour when they didn't use it, and then going and doing something else, not stopping, making settings changes then restarting.
But I was wrong xD

I plan to make the gui visible again via a button in the paint. Then I'll clear and readd tasks on the start button click.
Should only be 5 lines of code

 

[jake miler]

see if u can do something like where we can pause it or w.e i guess n do w.e we wanna do n start when were ready

The bot itself won't stop, it'll just bring up the ui again and when you press the start button on the ui it'll load in the changes
I can't do anything like have those 5 minutes deducted from the cost, however.

dont really understand, so we cant really stop the bot to maybe change world, go bank etc??
 
oh ya one more thing can u implement something for the bot to click on the meteors that drop?

You can pause the bot and do that, but if you click the actual stop button then the session ends.

 

[jake miler]

ahh coool any idea when u can have that implemented and the meteor would be nice for the bot to do it it self since im most likely not gonna be sitting at the computer to watch it defeats the whole purpose of botting

Random events like meteors might be a tad difficult, due to having to select the skill. Although I think I could determine a random skill by getting the skills from the tracker, removing the ones that are 99 and then selecting a random one.
