d2qol 1.5.0 - Quality of Life Utility

[ryunp]

Median XL's end-game requires highly repetitive crafting mechanics. Working with the cube slowly eats away at game time, but can also cause physical stress on the wrists and fingers. These actions are a perfect target for automation since the behavior is simple and well defined. This was designed foremost as a crafting aid utility, but it easily extends out to normal gameplay.

The scope of functionality is very simple which allows support for all resolutions. This utility does nothing more than click-on-command in locations you have specified. There is no memory peeking, no automated gameplay logic, no cheating mechanics. The 'Actions' currently provided all aim to save wrist movement and finger usage. Very handy when both precision and quantity are needed, such as buying oils or reallocating stat points.

This is a little tool I built and feel it may be helpful to others.

https://github.com/ryunp/d2qol

The github page has some pictures and GIFs to showcase the functionality.

Diablo II is old. The interface is old. Carpal Tunnel is real. This AutoHotKey program provides assistance for common tasks.

The goal is to replace the small, tedious, repetitive clicking sequences.

Many gameplay activities are based on RNG, requiring huge amounts repitition. Despite being 'braindead' activities, the compounding nature adds up quickly.

There is room for expansion on the concept. It's extremely simple, as previous versions I attempted would blow up into building a full on framework of sorts.

If Marco approves/approved of this nice!

I've updated the post to give a better sense of what the heck this thing is.

btw I've already done something similar a long time ago on the old forum, you can check it out here to see if you can find something useful in it (it's in AutoIt3 tho):

I don't have time to continue developing and fixing the few bugs on my script, or by contributing on the github project of your script, so it's nice to see someone doing something similar. coding/scripting stuff like that is so fun though. xD

Random comments on my script:

► Show Spoiler

I probably shouldn't have made it so customizable (custom res and inv/stash/cube size, full/windowed, etc.), because 99% of people don't use those features and it complicates the code unnecessarily, so your code is better off in that regard. I'm also better at coding/scripting now, so looking at that code now, it could have been done more cleanly.

most people have trouble with my script because I didn't include good default settings for realm play (delays after actions are too low for the realm lag/ping), and there's another bug too (I've figured it out, but didn't update yet).

sadly, I didn't use github back then. XD

@mordor: there's no problem using it on realm, since it's like d2clicker, and we allow that.

I'll move this thread to general discussion.

And what if your qube is full ? it will be dropped on ground or your script will crash ?

Most likely not. I assume his script doesen't check to see if the cube is full. From the looks of it, the scripts simply moves your mouse to certain points on the screen to perform the actions that you request. The only thing it checks for is where your cube is, which is defined by you.

Can you reupload this file? Links are broken.

It will attempt to place in the cube. Since the cube it full, it won't go into the cube and stay 'picked up'.

Indeed. This simply performs a small sequence of mouse moves and clicks. There is no conditional logic that acts on game state.

I've tried building more complex versions that deal with detecting game state (without memory reading) but my architecture would spiral out of control.

This may not be super useful for most gameplay, but there is many times where a ton of cube usage is needed, and this simple utility makes a huge difference.

I'll move this thread to general discussion.

Thanks, wasn't sure where to put it. Saw other AHK/AI threads and didn't want to overrun the larger thread categories. And yeah, definitely fun stuff. Your program is pretty slick, looks like lots of work put in there. Impressive you managed all the responsibilities without total collapse

Quirinus, could you tell me about settings related to the ping? I can't set up script to work with ladder latency (around 140-200ms)
I tried change settings MouseClickDelay/MouseClickDownDelay and sleep_click but this has no effect
