Hi kchen, I want to ask can you make a building queue in the script.

It will be great feature in the script.

you can added like auto refresh feature and check every couple of minutes for the last building to finish to build the second.

Any scheduling scripts are unfair.
Kronos's author abolished this function, too.
because it is unfair.

I thought that for fair, I will not write this function
If some people develop this function, I thought that I will withdraw from ikariam

I know that this is unfair, but you can limit it to 2 or 3 buildings in a row.

Because I saw in some similar games there is a queue even in a game like travian you can queue 2 building and it is a feature that you pay for it with money only if you have the resources in the start. And if you want you can see the advantages of travian plus (which is equivalent to Ambrosia).

This mean that it is fair only if it limited..

Because it need money, right!
The game company needs to survive

Do you want ikariam to go out of business?
I do not work for ikariam.
if yes, maybe, I will write the function to make money.

I don't say that you work for ikariam or charge it for money

even ikariam does not has this feature.

I say that you can make it and limit it to 2 building like travian.

 
hanoveel User

Also the script you make is better than plus account in ikariam.

You even make features they don't have.

 
hanoveel User

The only feature you don't have is marchents.

The plus is official allowed,
but my script is illegal.

and

this script is open source.
whether to limit are not important.

Some people can easy to copy my script and change the script name to their name.
like as http://userscripts.org/scripts/show/42504

I can not protect my script, not to mention limiting the level.

so, what you lose if you make it, some one may take your script as it is and add the queue feature.

So, why you don't make it (it will be fun)

You can't tell the people what to do, you make what you want and how people use is not your concern.

And as you say it is not legal so why bother your self.

The queue feature will no give a big advantage, it will only decrease the time people see their account.

And for me I keep the browser open so that I hear the alarm sounds and from time to time I see what is happening to build or transport something.

Also, you can queue transport especially for wine to keep sending the wine required for all cities.

Do you agree with me.

please refer to http://ikariam.wikia.com/wiki/Scripting

In TW server,
SGO will ban your account, if he discover you use my scipt.
This function will let SGO be easier to discover.

anyway sorry!

 
hanoveel User

May be he can discover it or not.

Any way, I will not push it anymore but you make either an option that can disabled or enabled or make another script that make this.

Any way we all use it with risk of banning.

So, thank you for this great script I only need it to be prefect.
