Writing a backroom access script and need your help!

[Xyl]

So writing this awesomeness for the general public and need help. I need the store item lists and prices from shops on RR, Pinefar, and Teras that everyone would like to be able to backroom access with ease. Cleric shop, armorshop, weaponshop, fletcher, alchemist, general store, etc. This will be open for public use once I have accurate prices and item numbers. Thanks to all that help out.

It would be best if you parsed the incoming lines with a regex and filtered for the lowest priced item the shop offered. You could hide the line scroll using a hook and display a little "please wait" notice to the user.

Gathering data sucks. My two cents.

personalty I'd do it even simpler... I got a wizard script... buy100... copy and paste the second part 100 times and your set... just make sure you buy a heavy backpack to trash after its over. simple, it lets you pick the cheapest item for the shop at the time. I'm sure there some fancy lich way do to the same thing with out all the copy and pasting.

put stow right
put stow set heavy backpack

pause 1
put order %1
put buy
put stow right.

That really isn't "simpler". What I think he is looking to make is a script that will go to the bank and get you backroom access to many different shops all automated.

guess ya got a point. but its a hell of alot simpler to write. I don;t need backroom access everywhere... so its better for me just to say I wanna see whats in this shop and run the script.

good luck on your script though

For something simple I used to do something like:

;e 100.times { fput "order 1"; fput "buy"; fput "drop #{checkright}"; } and then waited until I saw the backroom deal.

I haven't done Ruby in a while so that may be slightly wrong.

Nilandia's website has the shop listings for each town.

That's pretty close. I think the semi-colon at the end would be the only thing to cause problems, but it'd be a bit mo easier using multifput:

;e 100.times { multifput "order #", "buy", "drop right" }
