The auto-hunt assistant and its limits
Auto-hunting in Genesis runs on a panel the client already ships, not on a third-party tool. Tick the boxes, press start, and the character keeps fighting on its own. The server does two things in that arrangement: it allows the assistant to act, and it hands it a stamina bar.
What the switches do
The panel sends eighteen bytes of its own state, and the first four decide whether anything happens at all.
- Item use: the assistant drinks whatever sits in its slots.
- Automatic aiming: without it the character walks and never swings. This is the usual cause of "the assistant does nothing".
- Loot pickup: collect what the monsters drop.
- Radius: how far from the starting spot the assistant will chase a target.
What the server contributes
| Setting | Here |
|---|---|
| Stamina bar on switch-on | granted, full |
| Refresh | once every 60 seconds while it runs |
| Price of the assistant | none |
| State when you enter the world | kept, not reset |
Retail metered that bar and sold refills. Here it is simply granted, because a zero in the field stops all four of the client's automation loops at once, and an empty bar is exactly what a broken assistant looks like. One more detail about entering the world: the client switches auto-hunt off by itself when your body appears, so the server sends the suppression first and the assistant survives the loading screen.
Where it stops
The assistant fights monsters and picks up loot. It takes no quests, talks to no merchant, builds no party, opens no dungeon and fights no siege for you. It also does not see every monster: out of each species, only the one the client was shown first ends up in the list the assistant walks. Leave a character running alone long enough and something will kill it. That is the design, not a fault.
Where standing with the assistant is worth the time is covered on the levelling page. Make an account on the registration page and take the client from the download section.
Pytania
- Why does the assistant walk without attacking?
- Automatic aiming is unticked. With that box clear the client picks no target, so the body just moves around the spot.
- Do I have to buy auto-hunt?
- No. The stamina bar is granted when you switch the assistant on and refreshed once a minute while it runs.
- Does it turn itself off when I log in?
- It should not. The client does clear it when your character appears, so the server sends the suppression ahead of that.
- Can I leave it running overnight?
- Technically yes, and it will not save you: it does not flee a crowd, form a party, or open an instance.
