Need syntax/operator help

Lauren · January 18, 2019, 8:39pm

First of all ty for taking the time to help me out.

1. What do you use in the link? (very beginning of the program)
using BotSharp.ToScript.Extension;
using Parse = Sanderling.Parse;
using MemoryStruct = Sanderling.Interface.MemoryStruct;

Do I always just use these three? Also can I import other library’s?

3. Also why do we use var instead of int?

> 4. What is MemoryMeasurement in Sanderling. I see it used everywhere and seems to me it can be used to grab different variables from what the bot can see? (Need some explanation)

I think I found the answer to 4. The MemoryMeasurment is in the development tools and shows you all the windows open on your HUD? Wondering if that is correct.

Ty for taking the time to answer my questions. I’m looking forward to learning this code.

from my script ( garbage)
using System.IO;
using System.Collections.Generic;

we not using always var instead int . When your are not sure what type of data it is , or you take a reading (isk) you transform var in int.
is about situation

you have right: Memory measurement is the entire measurement of memory (eve process). You find there all data’s grouped by window, shipui, hud, etc etc.

The imports you listed are only needed in case you want to read the EVE Online clients memory.

Here is an example of a popular bot which uses other imports:

github.com

Viir/bots/blob/b82abce72a08ab19c3ebb4d2ac124363ac9cb775/tribal-wars-2/tribal-wars-2-farmbot.cs#L1-L29


      
          /* Tribal Wars 2 Farmbot v2019-01-18
          This bot farms barbarian villages in Tribal Wars 2. It reads your battle reports and sends troops to your farms again.
          
          ## Features of This Bot
          
          ### Easy to Configure
          + Reads battle reports to identify your farm villages.
          + Uses the ‘Attack Again’ function in the battle report to attack each target village with your preferred composition of the army.
          + Uses the chrome web browser to support in-game configuration (e.g. reports filter).
          
          ### Efficient
          + Automatically activates correct villages to attack from the same villages again.
          + Improves efficiency of units distribution: Skips combination of attacking and defending village for which an attack has already been sent in the current cycle.
          + Applies heuristics to reduce the number of reports which need to be read to learn about all farming villages coordinates.
          
          ### Safe
          + Supports random breaks between farming cycles.
          + Stops the farming when the configured time limit is met to avoid perpetual activity on your account.
          
          For details about how it works, see https://forum.botengine.org/t/farm-manager-tribal-wars-2-farmbot/1406

Yes, the most interesting library to import is PuppeteerSharp, because it helps controlling the web browser.

Thank you.

Another question I have is if there is a list of all the built in commands in sanderling. For instance, the FirstOrDefault() or ToArray() and what they do?

kaboonus · January 22, 2019, 7:36am

built in command in sanderling: bot: automate something else : open developement environement
there you can modify the script.
something like here: How To Configure A Bot

this are from c#, so all documentation is here:

different examples are here, also: https://stackoverflow.com
