Actually, to sell resources to factories, you only need some script sending a HTTP POST requests to the server, based on submission of resource selling form. Since the server discards such requests if there's no gold in factory or no stock to refill, one can call these scripts endlessly.
What you need is resources, and to be logged in. That's why these scripts aren't running 24/7.
In addition to factories above, I've noticed these scripted resource sales at Nickel Factory of East Bay.
There's definitely something fishy when it's just not possible to sell any resource because refill is instantaneous while, if you buy something in another factory in the same location, nothing happens within minutes if not more. |
- about 3 times in Blacksmith of might (Ridge of Hope)
I dont think it was a script here. Who would make a script for selling resources to sell at ridge of hope for a loss? If you check the factory, all the resources have lower prices than you can buy them for at mines and machinery..
I am not saying its not possible. Buying from factories in times of high demand were done this way by few people ages ago. |

Profanity? I don't remember saying anything profane.
And why delete the whole post?
(you disappointed me Slynky, because I admired your thoughts before)
DarkSooth:
When you access a php page, the server generates an HTML page that is sent to you. You don't touch the php in any way, even if you build your own browser.
Yes, on lordswm server you can't run PHP scripts (if you don't have access to that server - and no player has it of course), but you can run them on your computer/server and do whatever you want with that source page you get (i.e. you can modify that page as you wish). Actually you can do also with JavaScript, but it is more limited than PHP.
Like Kotrin said, communication with server (i.e. sending commands) is done via HTTP requests, which you can do when you login (you can login with a script too).
for Omega22:
Yes, you are right, selling resources in Ridge of Hope isn't profitable, but believe me, I saw someone selling 20 Steel many times there. |
Robia - You used the vulgar term for an anus. I agree with your suggestion and the sentiment in this case, however it was still a use of profanity and I had to do my job per the rules. Since it contained profanity, I was obligated to delete the post since Mods lack the ability to edit or delete a single word.
Happy to discuss further via PM, but not in this thread. |

what makes you think that it couldn't be several individuals playing with you at random?
when i stop laughing at this, i will try to explain but right now it's impossible, i'm sorry xDD

the inability to comprehend a point should not be a reason to comment it just for the sake of posting. chit-chatting takes place in the chat rooms.
That's not a proof for many reasons.
of course that the (probably random) 2 lines you quoted are not a proof. the proof is educed from the whole post.
ok, since it needs to be explained again - for these 2 years i have purchased a helmet and then enrolled many times in this factory. (i never need to copy/paste the code on .com actually). in 99% of the times i just type the code after buying a helmet, then return to the factory and sell resources.
during the last week, many times i couldn't even enroll after buying the helmet because resources were instantly sold to the factory and it runs out of wage money. and the same thing is happening to another player also (Robai).
so, if you still insist this is not a proof and someone stays in the empty factory hitting F5 for a whole day (because most of the time the shift ends with not all workslots filled), waiting for someone to come and buy a helmet so there will be money to sell his/her resources... then you should directly go to subscribe for the "Most naive person of the year" competition. there might be some nice prizes ;} |
#22 The reason players sell quite large quantities of steel in Ridge is because its the easiest way to get rid of the acumulated resource from enroling in Yellow lake.You make a profit by buying the steel there, enroll, get higher salary, even if you loose some gold coins by selling in Ridge.Don't know if its 100% accurate,but i know i have done it several times.
On the topic, i think this is a fairly ok idea, but i rather see it as a secondary thing, the focus should be on cleaning the server of cheaters and all these webs of illegal activities and so on. |
dealing with cheaters who are using illegal scripts (these are scripts giving an advantage) always had a priority over anything else. this was the reason why the enroll box was changed, even though it now prevents 3/4 of the mobile users to enroll.
there is no need also to make such transaction log to find out who is sending http post requests to the factory page. admins know how to trace it very well.
however, since this topic was created, i haven't noticed a script activity in the chain helmet factory, so i guess that one way or another it reached it's goal. |
Some players are sick of the scripts:

#22 Im selling steel in RoH BoM factory too.
I enroll mostly in YL and if I enroll in mine I get 4*174=696 gold. If I enroll in Steel works I get 4*185=740 gold. To enroll in Steel work I have to buy 1 steel for 751 gold which I then sell in RoH BoM factory for 749 gold. So I suffer a loss of 2 gold per each steel, but I gain 44 gold every hour for better enroll in machinery then in mine. |
I wanted to bring this back up because 100% there are scripts for autoselling.
No way on earth can I be beaten as often as I am when buying even from a steelworks to enroll, using paste on a fast connection. Buy, reloads, paste, enter - in a matter of a second - yet still the facility is out of gold instantly.
+100 as far as I'm concerned!! Keep this issue live! |

That is definitely true.
I can't think of anyone who would watch a facility with the eye of an eagle, and wait for someone else to buy goods to sell your own resources/enroll.
At times, I've bought goods, and a 2-3 seconds later, gold still there but, when i try to sell resource/enroll, i have no chance for enroll/sell resource.

had this prob at leather helmet plant in yl
only time i ever had issue with it .. but then i'm not a big resource-seller, only bought to enroll
definitely needs fixing and facility log, if it displayed seconds(rather than juts minutes), would illuminate the users immediately, so +1 |
i used to be optimistic thinking there are o scripts just right players at right places ...
having sold resources to factories thousands of times till now when some unlucky soul buys an art
but of recent i began to believe that scripts are at use here ....
when i used to sell resources at factories it used to be luck and planning but rite now with the connection i use i barely have .1 second reload time and it simply is not possible for some one to sell resources worth 10k~ 30k(yeah 30K!!!)
and that too in .1 second
and i see that happening frequently either the luck ratio has gone up or there is scamming ....
luck ratio going on is like lmao .... i believe the scamming has gone up ...
Personal experience:-
some players complain that when in the hunts neutral creatures increase their speed they experience a small lag well when i buy products off the factory and when i refresh the page some times it reloads normally and these are the times when factories still have gold
but there are times when in that .1 second the gold vanishes and i experience a brief lag like the one we receive when the speed increases
now the sped increase is a script no admin sits manually there to do it similarly i think that auto sell is a script |
+1
i do not see why not cuz it affect a lot of players |
oh sorry forgot to mention +1
(there should also be edit post function here so we prevent double post hehe) |

Post in Complaints section.
The problem is that there's no way to PROVE script usage, and "Please check here to see if something is wrong" complaints are forbidden. |
| well i had strong suspicion abt him already yesterday but only admins can prove it. However its in theyr best interest to check it. becoase even 1-2 script users can visibly slow down whole server. |
