You're claiming that executing a single keystroke or mouse click is not faster than doing the same thing 20 times. Or that 20 ships does not execute a task faster than one ship.


I'm not saying that 20 accounts can't aquire stuff faster than one ship, that's just silly.

Yeah, an ISBoxed character is not any more accelerated than normally played character.


Exactly.

But an ISBoxer is acquiring ingame items at an accelerated pace compared to normal player when both control the same number of characters.


Not always. There are many instances where the person not using a program such as ISBoxer would be far more efficient than a person using it.

Furthermore ISBoxer massively extends the maximum amount of accounts a single player can feasibly control.


It depends on the person. If you're talking the average person, who is lazy, then I would agree.

Compare this to a mission-running bot running one account 23/7 - perfectly possible by human without external programs as well. Activating a module on 40 ships simultaneously- impossible for a human without external programs. Yeah yeah one can construct mechanical devices that replicate keypresses across accounts.

But so can one construct mechanical device that runs missions. And yet one is banned, other not.


If a person is running missions 23/7 then they should probably seek medical attention. Sleep deprivation kills.
There are ways to activate buttons simultaneously with out software people actually do this, regardless of your dismissal of the practice because :effort:.
Currently, people running ISBoxer for the purpose of multiboxing aren't at risk of being banned because they're not doing anything wrong. The people loading the new module available for the purposes of botting are & I suspect that the module in question is the reason for the rewording of the EULA regarding it.

Search for ISBoxer.

That's a bit overkill for just 2 characters though don't you think?

BTW, what sort of performance do you see running two instances of the game on one PC?


"PC" covers a hell of a lot of hardware / software / configurations.

My personal best about 2y ago on XP was 9 with max graphics. As a guesstimate on my hardware today 15 - 20.




Yeah, I was pretty vague. Based on your results I think I'd have no trouble running two at once on max settings.
