Is This Runelite Plugin Cheating in Oldschool Runescape?

  • Bit of a grey area but it really depends on how much you want to split hairs, regardless i think its fair to say that using this plugin is more damaging for you as a player than it is helping, like most indicating plugins. T
    his Hieb person has been outed in the Counter Strike community in the past for his obnoxious and snobby attitude towards players & friends which makes sense as to why he'd cry about something like this, but i dont really know if Jagex will get rid of it at the end of the day.

      I don’t have a problem with timers, like he said, u could just put a stopwatch on and read it. I have a problem with plug-ins doing things reactively to actions that happen on screen. For instance, hunleff helper is fine because u start it, but it doesn’t keep perfect time if u delay hunleff or mess something up during the fight. The SOTE ball will always be perfect because it’s reading the game and reacting to it

    The only issue with this is the delay. Moving the notification of something happening elsewhere is fine, but setting a delay along with a notification is definitely against tos. Configuring a plugin to set a trigger does not mean that you are manually triggering something during the fight. The issue with automatic triggers is that they are consistent and will tell you what to do regardless of any random elements. With this I could sneeze, miss the notification, miss 4 ticks, see that @@@@@@@ and tick eat perfectly.
    1. The CG plugin is just a recording. Step under Hunllef once and it's useless.
    2. Tile markers are a way to set up a plan, but doesn't tell you when or why you are stepping on them. If tile markers could light up when something happened during a fight showing you when to move, then it would be a problem. They don't provide new information based on a changing state. If you mess up and now need to get back in cycle, new squares don't light up showing you how to do that.
    3. All metronome does is keep perfect track of when a tick is happening. You can make it indicate how many ticks are taking place and have it count up. If you have a boss mechanic that happens every 20 ticks, you can have it count to 20 and prepare for it to happen. But if you delay the boss in some way, you will have to mentally readjust the time to fit the delay and the plugin will not do that for you. So, if you have a mechanic that happens at irregular intervals, a metronome will not get a new trigger to start counting to tell you what to do.

    Chatbox messages to overhead isn't a real issue since the only function of that is to raise visibility, plus some people like myself don't play with the chatbox open.
    But the timed messages is bad since it introduces a new que for action that wasn't there before. Manually setting phrases and times is irrelevant when the trigger is automatic.
    If people want to go to the extra effort of using a third party timer like the purpp cg timer that's fine since it's a manual trigger and impossible to police , plus in a lot of cases you'll just plank cause you took your cursor off the game to start the timer mid boss, but having it built into the game client on an auto-trigger (+1 step) is bad.

    Watchdogs definitely does make it significantly easier to learn if it’s setup right so you don’t have to be focusing on so many different things at once, imo though it just takes away the learning experience and anyone that’s already good at the content doesn’t need it.

  • @SpicyBicycle
    @SpicyBicycle 4 місяці тому +1

    The argument about it reading text in chat, and triggering. Is like timers that appear on the double fishing spots with the tempoross plugin.
    Its reading a piece of game data, telling you when that spot is about to move.
    yes you could manually count it when you it spawns, but the automatic timer does it first, and gives you a piece of information you otherwise wouldnt have.
    Pest control has things that tell you about which shield has dropped. Which is a random thing, that has a slight change in pattern so the plugin would have to read something.
    Personally though I think you have to add an action in between the automatic reading of the chat message, and the timer setup.
    I'm fine with the automatic reading of the chat message displaying it above your head, but you should still have to hit space bar or click something on that same tick to initiate the timer. That way all the automatic thing is doing is just displaying the same text in a truncated form somewhere else on the screen. That way you're still making a conscience reaction to when the ball comes out and when you have to tick eat.

  • @nochoc
    @nochoc 4 місяці тому +6

    fot sote ball, in order to manually click a timer to count 9 seconds(15ticks), you would basically need to hover your cursor over the start button and hit that start button PERFECTLY, same tick as the text comes up. Zuk timer and hunleff timer you can be off by a couple ticks and have no issues at all, but for sote ball if are off by a tick, you're dead. Thats the difference.
    Tickeating based on sote's head bop is different from clicking when you see @@@@@ on your head. Almost all learners fail their first few tick eats because its just not the same. Tob veterans would obviously feel like its not that different since they have been trained to identify the head bop, but that learning process is important.
    If you can play the same with or without a plugin, then i think the plugin is fine. But if someone started using this sote ball tick eat shit from day 1 of learning tob, its unlikely they ever learn to tick eat without it. The part of the plugin that calls ball on you is totally okay imo.

If sote had a death ball on different times to tick-eat and the plugin recognized when to tick-eat, then that would break a rule.

      I think it needs a message that the game puts in chat itself. Unless you could literally type that yourself the same tick you’ve frozen someone it’s probably not that useful. I’m not even sure that it works off normal chat messages from players but you could always test it. That would be pretty wild if you could get it to work somehow. IMO freeze timers should just be in the game. I feel it’s just a way to gatekeep the noobs from getting into pking which just hurts everyone. You guys don’t get to learn and I don’t get to farm. Not to mention there will always be cheaters who abuse freeze timers and have that advantage over us anyways. I’m all for having it as players like me don’t even really need it at this point so it can’t only help new players get into the game. Even if they don’t do timers is be down for the indicators they suggested a while back. Just like a little orb or something above a player to show that they are frozen. It doesn’t tell you how long but simply that they are. Could be really helpful in multi fights.

    There are tons of skilling/qol plugins that read the chatbox and make timers.
    But I think it matters more for pvm, it does kind of hurt the integrity of encounters. Yes, you have to manually enter trigger commands, but you know this will just have a community pastebin for every encounter.
    These text triggers are a pretty common addon for raids in other mmos. Some are allowed, some get banned.
    Overall I think it's cringe in any mmo. But up to Jagex, it is kind of grey area.

    @JustHereForTheDialogue 4 місяці тому +2

    28:31 I don’t think it manually identifying the time of a game event is a problem when farming timers can automatically identify the timing of a game event with zero input from the player. How you choose to visualize information that’s already being given to you by the game is your choice. You could watch the animations, use visual or audio metronome, to count 9 ticks, you could manually count out the seconds, you could set a stop watch, you could use watchdog. I don’t see a real difference with any of these. None of them are providing you with extra information. They are just changing the way the information is presented. It’s hard to say honestly and I don’t have any really strong opinions on it. If someone can make a strong argument that it breaks one of the rules from the list then so be it but for now I say leave it be.

Just because the user is the one that input when to start a timer doesn’t mean it’s not against the spirit of the rules of the game. Stuff like herb timers isn’t affecting the pvm content of the game, I think that’s the most important aspect of this plugin

    As long as it doesn't do anything for you it should be ok. Certain mechanics are unbeatable if you have certain handicaps. For example, im colorblind and absolutely can't beat phantom muspah more than once an inventory due to essentially unavoidable damage because i can't see the form switch as they are practically the same color. Some sort of indicator would essentially even the playing field for me. I can see both arguments but this seems more like a memory aide rather than a cheat.

    These timers are fine. The issue with the levi add-on is it aided in the decision making process. Having a timer to do a premeditated action you were going to do By counting on your toes. The issue is scanning for phrase and removing the thought process. So if he says twist your arm, it should be 1:1 and say the same thing, not take off gloves, etc.

    Honestly, when it comes down to it, Jagex is just terrible at boss indicators/ showing what is even happening during a boss fight. That is the sole reason many of these plugins even exist in the first place. Nothing is intuitive, hiding mechanics in a chat box is lazy.

    As a former WoW player where combat add-ons have undoubtedly shaped the design of the game, I would like to see this removed. I don't have a problem with an individual using this. I have a problem with these kinds of plug-ins becoming commonplace, and therefore, jagex has to make insane combat mechanics to still design a challenge. The trajectory of this plug-in is headed towards making the inferno giga easy in 5 years from now because the plug-in does literally everything but click for you. When a plug-in hits a grey area, I'd rather see jagex remove it instead of letting it slid.

  • @altitudeadjustment1
    @altitudeadjustment1 4 місяці тому +2

    Idk if I like the sote ball timer because learning the timing of the tick eat is a skill. Same thing with xarpus and learning melee walking. If something told me exactly how to do something it feels like a human just following a bot script. For me, it defeats the point of learning content and progressing at the game. The mechanics I mention also have existing cues from the boss (visual for sote, audio for xarpus) that help you learn the timing. If they allowed this only in entry mode to practice the content I think thats fine but when you're doing the real deal it feels weird to have this.
    The sol watchdog I think is a bit different because I play on resizeable and I play with the chat box closed because it gets in the way of pathing. I play on resizeable because laptop screen size. It doesn't help that the boss is 20ft tall so his chat box would force me to zoom way out which makes clicking on the correct tiles and moving my mouse between my inventory way harder. So having that same thing above my head is nice. I would also take sol's whole sentence word for word above head. I think its a poor design choice on Jagex's part so we need a plugin to make it manageable (For certain game configurations provided by Jagex- resizeable-mind you)

    World of Warcraft has add-ons like deadly boss mods to tell you when to use defensives, when to move away, and major abilities to interrupt. In raids, it shows timers on the next mechanic so people can be aware of what to do next. This is used in all end-game content such as raids and mythic plus dungeons. An add-on on runelite to tell you mechanics easier shouldn't be bannable UNLESS it's doing the actions for you. If it's automatically changing your prayer based on the mechanics or overriding your clicks, then I could see it being an issue.

    I really wish I could answer live. I'm irritated that this has dragged me in!
    My thoughts:
    Changing where a text is.. completely fine. (So from above Sol/Sot to above your head)
    Timing on tick eat.. that's against rules, as it's adding the indicator when to do a mechanic (tick eat) where as visual metronome or w/e is a tick counter allowing you to utilise game info, it's not only showing up for 1 tactic.. (Basically the tick eat timer or remove gear on Sol is an extra indication within the game).
    Also on what 'manual' is, my personal opinion on it is that the CG one you start, click getting stomped etc, where as the counting the tick eat/unequip items are automatically started timers. I think the argument 'you set the timer start/duration' stand is a weak one, as every plugin was coded and set by someone somewhere, and others just copy/paste inputs/codes to have same result in plugin.

    i dont really think u can call it manual just because you input the settings once. It’s like saying a non 1:1 AHK is “manual” bc technically you created the script. At the end of the day you only need to input the settings once for the trigger to go off an infinite number of times. And I feel like that just makes intuitive sense. it’s not like clicking a timer or counting a tick counter while also doing everything you need to do for whatever boss you’re facing is as trivially easy as blinking. You’re adding an input and/or something to keep track of, which is always going to be something that could lead to a mistake. an automatic timer doesn’t give you anything extra to do or think about and therefore there isnt any tradeoff for like: making one mechanic easier but making up for it by doing different actions.

It 100% restricts the amount of attention you need to dedicate to the actual mechanics. It's also triggered automatically which is fucked. Git gud.

    I think the entire concept of runelite is largely an affront to the base game integrity. Debating beyond that point is just being a snarky little silly billy. Unless it's clicking for you, shut the fuck up or get used to solving your own clue scrolls, which for the record, hard interacts(read: automation) with the game client. The 15 minute afk plugin also hard interacts. The impling plugin hard interacts in my opinion, but the first two aren't debatable.

    🤚 yup I'm shit at the game. I don't believe this would be bad. If this is banned anything that pulls the client to top of screen is also interacting with the client. So low hp or even idle pull up is interacting with the game. Prayer reminder and pot reminder is also reading the game. And if deaf or blind or other problems this would give the game playability. People only have an issue with plugins because 1) they don't use it 2) they think they aren't dog sh-t 3) they either wanna agree to everything or fight it all since they don't have a life of their own

    anyways, this isnt a problem. any kind of trigger that acts off chat box input is just an accessibility helper. you still need to do the mechanic. plugins that move for you or calculate locations to stand based on chat input are issues. not timers or gloified audio or visual queues. its ludicrous if people think this is an issue. if you want to play the game without the plugin then just turn it off.

      also its not reading game events, its reacting to chat output. if jagex wants to fix this, stop hiding mechanics in the fucking chat and actually create visual clues in fights.

    By your logic, the developers of cheat clients would be exempt, because they are programming the queues, which doesn't make any sense.
    Iirc there was an automatic Zulrah plugin that would tell you the next phase without any user input, and that is the line that has been defined as against the rules in the past. Users have to input when the game action happens to start the process, or it has been removed in the past, and that is not happening here.
    the same is true for the Zuk timer - the user has to start the timer based on them perceiving the trigger in game. If the set time started without user input, it would be removed.
