You really need to try reading the actual rules before you lecture others on them. There is nothing whatsoever in the rules against reading log files while AFK. On the contrary, they're explicitly permitted in the rules:

Reading the log files sure, notifying you about what is going on in game while not at your computer via text messages? Sounds pretty borderline to me.

is "borderline"? Unless you think they literally meant that all a program is allowed to do is read the and not actually do anything in response ... but that would make absolutely no sense because a program that can just read logs and not doing anything else would have no point.

There's no "borderline" about it: the staff has made it very clear, both in the rules themselves (unless you choose to willfully disbelieve them because you disagree) and in forum posts throughout the years. Any program can do anything ... ANYTHING it wants when it reads the log ... except mess with the game itself.

The moment any program, log reader or not, tries to impact the game you're a cheater. But until then any program can read the logs and do anything else it wants in response.

My Dearest Loramin®,

*Strictly* speaking, doing one thing and another thing is altogether different from doing strictly that one thing.



Ergo, YOUR *WRONG* mon amis.

This thing works pretty slick if you're waiting for something to pop up for sale in EC and want to clean the garage instead of watching scrolling text. Kudos.

I've been using the old version from a few years ago for the last few years, the outgoing text stuff still works just fine. What's different in this new version to make it worth swapping from the older one?

Right on, glad it's working well for you, thanks!

Glad to hear those mappings are still working. It's probably the same version, I haven't updated it in a while. I just created a new thread because the old one was locked due to inactivity and also lost most of the pics due to forum changes so I figured I'd redo it so people new to the game could find it. Thanks for the feedback, cheers!

I want to make a log program where every time Fippy runs into the guards it triggers my sandwich press to begin making me a grilled cheese.
