A Mining/Harvesting/Excavating/Logging Bot would be hot:)

A multi function mining, harvesting, excavating, logging bot would be hot. I think this would be very useful. Especially for crafters and people who don't like running out of gil or having to buy it. I for one would love it because i don't like wasting 8 hours of game time mining for gold ore and gems to level my goldsmithing. I would imagine it would be similar to the fishing bot and should have options to drop copper, tin, zinc, iron, and pebbles for example. It would also have to auto sort like the fishing bot. Granted it would be a slow bot due to having to stand at one point but what better way to utilize your character while being at work;) Just like all bots there would be a chance of getting caught but who cares:) Just an idea.

Oh i did...i went thru and saw those. Did a search on "mining" and saw the other one cause i am having troubles with the fishing bot. I work on computer hardware and windows support for a company but know nothing upon nothing when it comes to scripts. I understand how one sort of works and the function of it...but not really. So it would be so hot to have a multi-function bot with a selection for mining, harvesting, excavating, and logging. With customizable dropping of poop items...lol. The other threads were a tad vague and only about one craft and i think it would make a great addition to the package already in place. It would be so hot to be gone to work for 8 hours and come home to find some darksteel and gold:) It would be like christmas everyday...lol

well I have not gotten arround to figuring out how to do the auto drop functionality(not sure if have to pixel read or if can pull the words from the text line) but as far as making it multi-harvest functional all you would have to do is modify the alt-1 macro to trade each of the harvest tools and the one you are camping would be used.

Say Word!!!

Okay this script runs great with auto it as per mentioned in this post...

https://www.forum.ffxiscripting.com/viewtopic.php?t=2001

but all i need now is a way for it to auto sort items so after you mine successfully it sorts the pickaxes so they don't take up inventory space. the dropping of items isn't as important. can anyone help me figure out how to add to the script to make this happen?

already did this but trying to figure out auto drop of items now. two possible scripts for auto sort are

Send("{NUMPADSUB}")
MouseMove(938, 108, 0)
Send("{NUMPADENTER}")
MouseMove(945, 77, 0)
Send("{NUMPADENTER}")
MouseMove(947, 120, 0)
Send("{NUMPADENTER}")

or

Send("{NUMPADSUB}")
MouseMove(938, 108, 0)
Send("{NUMPADENTER}")
Send("{NUMPADADD}")
Send("{NUMPADENTER}")
Send("{DOWN}")
Send("{NUMPADENTER}")

Both of these are for 1024X768 resolution. to modify for other resolution you would need to run ffxi in xxxx X xxxx resolution and get the x y coords for the buttons in the menu in that resolution. Either of these would be tacked onto the other script. not sure how much key delay is needed but I'm assuming the 200 from the other script would be enough. Have fun and lemme know how it works.
