There is a lot of info both here and in the official forums for making bots. It would be nice to have an easy to follow guide here though.

Here's a little discussion between a friend and myself, any input you guys have, or info for us would be awesome.
The CCFS ive seen lately are in Restuss grinding comms.

The more traditional CCFS will bot 7 toons. They get 10k NPC missions from mission terminals on Dantooine. All their bots mount the multi person transport and head out, destroy the flag and move on, they dont bother killing the NPC guarding the flags.

Each person in the group gets 10k for each flag and they can get 2 missions each. So 16 missions at around 10k each, thats just over a mil each run, which probably takes about 30 minutes.

Players on the other hand, dont have 8 accounts, and have to do things differently. Still running missions in a solo group is a good way. It always has been.

Solo groups cause spawns to be bigger and allows higher level missions. After you kill and loot all NPC and sell stuff to the junk dealer you can come away with a good sum of money each mission. 1 mil and hour is quite good.

Now want i want to know is how do do this.
Now my reply:
I believe they've either got a 3rd party script running, or a full-out bot program. The difference between the two (at least in my opinion), is that the script does not move the characters around independently. All it really does is uses a set of predefined actions and executes them at an exact time. Most likely these characters would follow a (real player's) character back and fourth to the missions, blow the antenna, and then return to the recruiter and collect the mission reward. Then they would repeat this.

The bot program on the other hand would completely automate each toon. They would be able to run the missions on their own, without any person physically controlling them.

If we could find a certain type of bot program that simply recorded our actions, and then played them back, I think this method would be the easiest.

Writing a script to have multiple toons pick up the mission down in the bunker, exit the bunker, get back into the vehicle, and follow the real live player to the antenna, and repeat all of this seems like it would be very hard.

Show your girlfriend AC Tools, see if she thinks its useful. I got it to work really well with crafting, but all that it involves in that case is using the different tools, selecting the schematics, a few macros to skip crafting stages, and then loop with the next tool. No movements.

So.. *shrug*

Whats about command line for bot?

For example, send a tell to one of the bot that will make him react with a specific answer or do a specific thing?
