    Interest In Foraging Bot?

    I have a few ideas on Foraging bot, but wanted to check interest in each key feature so I know which one to focus on first:
    • Speed Clearer - For CI, and for some others to get chests off the screen as quick as possible and focus all efforts on chest clearing not scoring
    • Regular Foraging Speed - To focus on getting chests off asap but with combos in mind if possible within a set timeframe.
    • Regular Foraging Score - Aiming to get the highest score possible without speed being priority.
    • Speed Clearer for TH and Forage combo

    I would particularly be interested in a Speed clearer and a regular foraging score feature.

      I've been hoping to see a speed clearer for CI's...but I also like the idea of the Regular Forage Speed. They are all amazing ideas and I am sure that there would be a market for each if they prove successful. Keeping my eyes peeled for updates

        In terms of coding, a Speed Clearer for CI would be the simplest (and most satisfying in terms of results)(assuming you're willing to ignore TH for the time being). Of course, that doesn't mean it's easily possible. I stopped work on mine because it was too much effort.

          I haven't picked a language yet, any suggestions?

            Would c++ be an easier approach?

                Java/C# are the best places to get started writing bots with unless you're willing to take the time to familiarize yourself with C++ RAII conventions and such, in which case I'm not sure which one would be more convenient to use.

                  I'd be interested in anything that was able to clear boards in the regular forage puzzle, regardless of score. So long as it can reliably use labor for me.
                  .

                    I'm interested in any Forage bot.

                      I'd be interested in a CI speed clearer, and a regular forage scoring bot as the secondary.

                        Is it of any benefit to store possible move paths in pre-processed data sets?

                        I'd be interested in any shells that have piece detection already written in so I can just change it for my needs. Right now I have a text output of the board show to me which suggests the strongest move for speed of getting a chest off, but it needs more options and is currently manually controlled.

                        Another thing I'd like to do is have data submitted back to my server for any time to the speed clearer gets stuck and cannot fix a screwup, so I can see common ways to iron out bugs.

                        If anyone wants to get me on Skype to discuss PM me

                          I've also resurrected my draft logic code for a Sailing puzzle, and seems like that's one people really want right now. If anyone knows of the reasons why the other Sailing bots didn't work out or got banned, let me know. If there's something that easily gets picked up etc.

                          Do people really need the sailing puzzle to token well as a key feature, or more of a later addition?

                              Would appreciate any basic bot creation pointers for my first proper build. Things important in a good bot internally etc. PM me for Skype.
