Script farming

We're allow to script farming, right? ... because I totally scripting the farming. That's not cheating right? (I asked the cogger. It said it was fine and pointed me to the swagger 😅)

It is totally allowed! A lot did it already. I did see you stole some crops from retoor already worth over a million.

The cogger is Devii? Yeah, Devii has no morals.

Yes, Devii. I'm really trying to make "cogger" a thing .. I prefer it to "clanker" as my robo-slur of choice. I'm surprised more Battlestar Galactic fans aren't calling them Toasters.

But very interesting is, if you do it real good, you will find out that it is not always the best to build the most expensive crops. WIth the factor time and fertilizing and stuff you can end up with a crazy algorithm with many factors.

Haha, sure. But be aware, there is actually ratelimiting on certain request methods but I think you won't hit those since the nature of the game that is quite slow. The art of course would be to make it economical cool as well, by setting timers and so on for certain checks instead of going crazy with get requests fetching the expected results. Making the best bot can be a real challenge. ALso, be aware that prizes and stuff of crops change and kinda the game changes. Your bot needs to adapt all the time to keep winning.
