iMacros Allowed for Apocalypse?

Postby Anonymouslands » Mon Oct 27, 2014 9:35 pm

Am I allowed to use iMacros to autoclick the cure missile button for the Zombie Apocalypse if it follows the API rules?

Not entirely sure what you mean by "autoclick," but it sounds like probably a no. You have to click the button for every cure missile/zombie horde/extermination squad you send. The big rule for any scripting like that is "1 action = 1 click."

Of course, one of the more technically conversant on the team can probably give you a more concrete answer.

Like just something that will press the button for me once the cooldown ends.

Yeeeah, that violates "1 action = 1 click" so that's a big "No, not allowed."

By one action=one click, wouldn't this be like that? It's just that the click is automated. Or do you mean the action as making the script?

The click cannot be automated. The user needs to be completing the "one click."
