Hi there!
I've got a BuffBot that has been up and running nicely through KoLMafia for a few months now: Notbot, (#896474). I was wondering how to get it included in KoLMafia's list of bots available to purchase from.

I can host whatever .txt or .xml file might be needed to provide the price list, so that isn't a concern.

Thanks!

Just post the name of the bot and where the .xml file is hosted.

The name of the bot is: NotBot
and the xml file is located here:
http://www.knauer.org/mike/kol/notbot.xml

Thanks!

One more questions - is there anyway to find out when it gets added? Or should I just keep checking the list of buffbots with each build?

Thanks!

I'll post in this thread once I get a chance to verify your buffbot. =)

I just noticed that the XML file included the clan-only philanthropic buffs, so I've deleted them from the file.

necro!

Hi, we'd like to update Iocainebot's xml file location to

http://www.iocainepowder.org/iocainebot/iocainebot.xml

Thanks in advance!

And sorry to everyone who missed the bot over the last few weeks (our primary sysadmin was on vacation, and hence the delay in hanging this new one off our webserver).

IocaineBot's URL has been updated in r6382.

Is there a way to add a buffbot that doesn't use kmail, but uses chat commands instead?

You mean KoB?

No, the current buff request mechanism is pretty strongly based on meat-via-kmail as the way buffs are specified.

Anything that doesn't involve payment would almost certainly get abused, I think.

I'd imagine it'd technically be a chatbot (i.e. using a chatbotScript). I have no idea how those work, so I'll just let someone else fill in the blanks.

Click to expand...

If you didn't put limits on the buffs, then yes it probably would be abused. The buff mechanism is really just a html post, I can't see it being that hard to extend it to post to lchat.php instead of messages.php

I would hope chatbots keep track of who they buffed in a given day as to not get abused.
