"Multiple instances of the Launcher cannot be run from the same directory. This instance will now close."

Goddamn that is so frustrating, why was it changed so it now takes 5 minutes to open 12~ accounts? Before you could open as many as you wanted simultaneously.

just add the exe files in a short cut ";" seperated? Will that chain up the command?

12 accounts? Well, there is your problem.

NORMAL people have 1, even two is pushing into sadness, hell I only play with a single toon and I can cause mayhem in eve. Why do you need 12? Are you that BAD at playing the game? I just made 1 billion in 5 minutes after logging on.

Agreed, the players with more than 2 accounts should be heavily monitored to check for automated activity, no way can u run that many accounts without some kind of automation.

I have 3 accounts but I only use CCP approved automation. Cool

I know they talked about possibly allowing automation via their own interface supplied for automation, have they done this already? I haven't seen any docs on it.

Maybe some kind of recorder for ingame ship tasks, kinda like photoshop has for actions ofcourse this has to be limited in scope :)

Multiple screens and do something that requires low user input.

Isn't hard.

When your gut instincts tell you something is wrong, trust them. When your heart tells you something is right, ignore it, check with your brain first. Accept nothing, challenge everything.

I just meant javascript loop in IGB refreshing market data in cache + program reading cache. Usefull for trading notifications even throught I still need to manually go change the orders.

I'd say more than 4.

I use 3 (the old '2 Hulks & an Orca') and could handle a 4th. More than that becomes really logistically complicated.......requiring automation of some sort.
