New to coding, not sure if this helps other newcomers, after making changes in the code, save the file. I was closing out of the "insert character name" tab that was open in the VScodium app for it to prompt me to save, after that, the bot would run the new code. I am going to use this to tinker in C# with, I really love seeing games being used as tools like this!
If you have some experience coding it's a fun lidl idler But it's really not beginner friendly at the moment The documentation needs quite a bit of work and the level design makes it so that basic scripts will lead to death pretty quickly (that isn't a particularly bad thing if iterating was more streamlined; not sure how the script syncing/loading is working right now but if you create a new character it seems like you need to wipe the old file before it starts working properly). Overall think it has a lot of potential but the target audience is definitely niche. I'm looking forward to future updates :3

Really really wanted to like this game, but is simply too janky to play. The documentation is either outdated (which would surprise me seeing as it's not even a year old) or simply incorrect, as even following the most basic instructions causes errors. Methods shown in the docs apparently simply don't exist in the game. I can deal with the bugs and glitching through the world every now and then, but when the biggest part of the game is coding and is so difficult to make the simplest methods work, even following the docs, I just can't get into it. Hoping to see some improvements, and change my opinion in the future.
игра где надо запрограммировать бота. звучит классно. но несколько проблем. первая , после часа . игра не грузится... на 90% и идешь ты... вторая это непонятно ничего... даже кнопка скрипта невидна пока ты на нее наведешь. документация отдельно с сайта. нету наативного редактора. открывается кодиум который у медя дико лагает. я думаю у вас будет все тоже самое.
Gra się zacina na sprzęcie gamingowym, skrzynia która się pojawia jest "nieklikalna" czyli nie mogę jej kliknąć i wybrać czegokolwiek ani cokolwiek z nią zrobić, nawet nie wiem do czego ona jest, zasłania cały ekran. Próbowałem rozwiązać problem jak zawodowy informatyk po 5 letnich studiach: Wyłączyłem i włączyłem grę, wyłączyłem i włączyłem komputer, wyłączyłem i włączyłem wtyczkę z komputera, wyłączyłem i włączyłem prąd w gniazdkach, wyłączyłem i włączyłem prąd w budynku, wyłączyłem i włączyłem prąd w dzielnicy a na wszelki wypadek wyszedłem i wszedłem do domu, żeby się WSZYSTKO zresetowało zanim napiszę , że nie działa. Więc, NIE DZIAŁA !
absolutely amazing game! What makes it better is that as you get better with coding the game gets better!
I'm quite hyped by the idea of it so I'll put a thumbs up for it. Still tho, as of 2025/01/10, the game is basically empty and simply sucks.
hard to move hero. move by R click for L click to ATK and must Hold R click for moving - - Why you let's player move by wasd and L click for ATK ?
Wanted to try this game, even give it a chance..... followed the directions til "Hero.Idle();" then got a huge crazy neverending flag of code not working and then my character just running in circles instead of "Makes your hero fight enemies in current location, drink health potions and pick up items". 0/10
i have really fun actually enhancing my automated hero, the way the game is build allow lot of possibility for build around the logic, fight, loot, anti-stick, optimizing equipement, spells, etc... and i dont had yet unlocked a second char ! theire is also crafting skill apparently, not tested yet, ton of things to discover and the game still in active developpement ! just try it, its free, if you have ever programmed in C# this will not be hard to get in, take a look on discord and official documentation that are available. if you are really beginner in programming, this may be tricky but that's a part of the challenge !
