Default Re: Single Player Improvement

Personally I think it would be easier with a macro program which is designed to do that very thing. They are usually used by advanced players in online games. Particularly online worlds to do the "grinding" (doing the same task repeatedly to gain levels). Macro recording software are designed so that you can write extensive files that will play the game for you. Then it runs on top of your game doing the mouse moves, the clicks, hitting the keys, etc. This way you could concentrate on the player part, and leave things like files and file transfer to host for the Dom3 game to do. No mucking around internally

My personal favorite is AutoHotKey which I use to give Dom3 capabilities that the devs havent put in. Most wouldnt call me a programmer but I have gotten it to do some fun things. I think a programmer could do quite abit with it.
