    Default logout vs wait until not(loggedin)

    some scripts us something like
    Code:
            repeat
              FindFastRandoms;
              if TabExists(4) then FindNormalRandoms;
              Wait(2000);
            until not(LoggedIn);
    then some just use
    Code:
    logout;
    is one more likely to get you banned than the other? is one better, what are the pro's and con's of both of them, thanks

    No diff really.. Log out just logs out immediately or you wait until Jagex logs you out.

    Logout;
    pro's: It is faster than setting there and waiting for RS to time you out.
    con's: When you click the logout button it sends a packet of info. And I don't believe that we know exactly what it sends, but I'm guessing it sends info of what you have been doing and whatnot. So more chance of a ban maybe?


    until not(LoggedIn);
    pro's: It doesn't send that packet of info that I mentioned above. So just to be on the safeside, me(and most scripters) like this method better.
    con's: You have to wait 1-2 minutes for RS to time you out.(not exactly sure on the time)

    I'm sure just before Jagex log you out after the time limit they will still send info to their servers about your char.

    it would just seem silly not to, but yes, what MJordan said is basically true

    Fakawi told me, and he said that Regex was the one who researched it.

    Yep and the way to tell is by useing a "Packet Sniffer" to see when packets are sent. Some sniffers can even decrypt packets.....*drifts off into dreams of makeing AutoRune work again*

    Since I am autoing while I'm asleep/etc, I can afford to 'waste' some minutes waiting. Maybe I'm just paranoid, but not sending the packet definitely can't hurt.

    Timing out also fits with our cover: teenager playing for about 5-10mins, then doing homework/watching tv/etc for about an hour, and then logging in again. If you were doing this you would prolly just go away from it and let it logout, instead of deliberately logging out.

    yeah u have to change them. i change it to 0,0..don't forget to get rid of the brackets. if it's still green after you've replaced it with 0,0 then you havn't taken away the brackets.....btw i've got no idea what 0,0 or 1,0 or 2,1 actually does. anyone care to explain
