Hello guys,

just a quick question: How do you guys find out if a monster (not player) is attacking you, since the black square disappeared from the battle list ?

- I have several approaches, the easiest one is to wait for a damage message if there is only 1 creature of the name on your screen. ("Who of the 2 rats made damage now?"-Problem)
- Read out graphics for distance attacks (doesnt work for melee or puff because you cant tell who attacked you for multiple monsters)
- Smart Analyzing (secret, however it is complicated).

If you guys have any simple read out approach or know of data in the client that could be used, post here.

Yours
jah

Reading how far it is far from you and the direction the creature is facing should be a good indicator for you to consider. No, I do not know if there is a exact way since I don't play anymore.

I can detect if monsters stand next to me ofc, but it doesnt for example show if its a summon or a real monster. Ofcourse you dont want to attack a summon.

IMO...

Non-pvp:
When you attack a summon you get a warning saying you can't attack it. => blacklist the id

Pvp:
You should have a list of creature targets, anything strange should be ignored unless it attacks you. Also, if someone summons a creature that exists in the area you are botting, they are asking for trouble. => be pragmatic
