The TRUE reasoning behind all this!

CCP is now backing CODE.

Oh. Em. Gee.

you can still run many clients with whatever tool you have. Just don't send the command to many at once. Nothing to do with how many monitors you have.

No-one can be this dumb though, gotta be trollin'

I'm directly impacted by this, but this is still a great change, to be honest.

Subs will immediately be hit, plex price will drop by a significant margin, and income from professions like Mining will increase. I can only see this as a good change in the long run, as there is more value in an individual player's time rather than one player being able to actively control 20+ accounts.

As was noted in the CSM Summer Summit Minutes, I pushed hard for this change and I am delighted to see it finally implemented. The grey area that was simultaneous input commands needed to be killed off and I'm over the moon to see CCP go through with it.



Many thanks for the efforts of all who talked, debated and pushed for these changes.

Crime, it is not a "career", it is a lifestyle.

BYE BYE ..dont let the BAN HAMMER hit you on the way out


this will have a secondary effect of lowering inflationary pressure on the game....which will only help new players..and the game needs to help new players IMO .

At last.

Eve was the only MMO game I've played in my long career that allowed automation in such manner, for a very, very long time.
Now that this option isn't available for much longer, all I can say is thank you for finally sobering up and making this step.

THANK YOU

No, but the fact I am running Mac OSX and it provides these functions, how would the distinguish between legal and illegal actions. I run 6 monitors and typically have 12-25 clients running, i can see every client on the screens simultaneously, so clicking from screen to screen and pressing keyboard buttons happens super fast and I can broadcast to multiple clients or a single client, but clicking from one to the other is instant.

The default would be ban first and sort it out later. I dont' have that kind of time, it took me 5 months to get a simple reimbursement thru the CCP bureaucracy, i can't imagine how many years a petition here would take.


Just thinking outloud, I could make a script to cycle the windows and do the commands a window at a time, them I am not broadcasting to multiple clients - this may work after all

Haha isnt this guy the one who went on and on about how people need to adapt and put in more work when the reprocessing and jump changes went in?? Sounds like you need to practice what you preach bud Smile

You are quite correct. It makes his lamentations all the more enjoyable.



Yeah, i am trying my workarounds already, working pretty good so far, jus have to tweak a bit for lag and I'll be golden.

I'll be out of your thread soon

So, does this mean no more Mac support?

Oh, don't be silly. You can have any hardware or software, you just cannot use it to multicast to multiple clients.

One key press sends one command to one client. Adhere to that rule, and you're fine.
