Either that or the coordinates passed on to FindTextTPA in GetChatBoxText is off by some pixels..
If it's the OCR then there isn't much you can do, I'm afraid...
It does return some of the number correctly so I don't think those coordinates are off.Quote:

I made one of these in reflection a few years ago. It would be great to make one again. Just need to get into Pascalscript :L
Reflection is way easier with hooks and interfaces than using color..Quote:

Someone came, dumped ores at market price and I got f*cked. I'm guessing never buy above market price? Mithril Ores are on the rise, so I was like... yeh fair enough that they're buying above mid price... but then I saw through action the big flaw in that.
Should it be a sort of rule that if they're buying above market price then it's no good to flip? On the other hand, the price I as buying them at is now Market Price, so I'm all profit. What I'm thinking is that there might be a need to keep a few ores behind to monitor the market, cus we don't want to have goods sitting still in a script, and keeping some behind would allow us to know when the market is no longer favorable, switch items, and get back to that one later.
So an f2p version would probably merchant 3/4 items, and a p2p version would probably merchant 10 - 12 items, rotating them as the market floats.

You've got it pretty much, but I know when I flip, all I do is this.Quote:

At this point, you're going to lose money, whatever you're flipping.
3. Check my "history" and see what I bought and sold for. If I bought for 3,400 and sold for 2,800, there's my window. I then know I can buy at 2,850 and sell at 3,350. Those numbers are both 50 + and - the original values.
4. Buy whatever item it is at the low price, and sell at the high price.
What you said about buying above market price...sometimes it's actually good and means the item is rising. The key for a script would just be recognizing the number you buy high at and the number you sell low at, and buy at the low number and sell at the high number.
That undercut is ridiculous, wtf.Quote:

Not really. Everything you start flipping will close in margin after a short while, so you might as well get the fastest buying and selling while you can, and not be undercut by other people.Quote:
