For those who don’t know what this GoldPlayer cand do for you here are some few words. This player is loaded in your web browser by accessing this link. You need Java plugin to start this application.
What it does? It can log into your DarkThrone Gold account and perform the recruit clicks for you, auto repair your fortress if you are attacked, spend your gold if it reach a max value of troops, or armory, or just deposit it in the bank. It also knows to perform spy and attacks missions on targets.
All the communication with the DarkThrone server is done using your computer, so if you want something to be done over night you have to keep the application running.

Cheers!

Enjoy!

Anyway, if you guys find any problems please don’t hesitate to post them here on this blog.

Cheers!

I’ve been plaing DarkThrone since its beta (about 4 years ago) with some little pauses, however lots of people gone nuts about this simple text MMORPG, including me.

What is nuts about this game? You must recruit your army using a boring recruiter program where you must click a recruit button for each citizen that you will eventually gain. This is about 350 clicks per day, besides the ads you have to skip and other pages.

Also the attacking aspect takes you a lot of time: you have to browse through a long list of users that you can attack and make a decision based on the amount of the gold and also the army number if you can attack or not.

And all these takes you a lot of the precious time.

Because it uses only a web browser to play the game I’ve made an automatic program that knows to login into a DarkThrone account and perform opperations like recruit using the public recruiter, look for a siutable targets to attack based on the selection parameters (max army, min gold, etc), insert all the targets in a queue, attack the targets in a batch, bank the gold if exceeds the given threshold.

The technologies used are Commons HTTP client, Maven and Commons Daemon from Apache. Basically the program emulates the web browser (Firefox 3.0.1) to send and receive data using HTTP. Because it was intended to be run as a batch on a linux machine (using cron) the application was developed as a Daemon java application and can be executed using jsvc. However it can be runned as a standalone application aswell.

There are two Service modules:

RecruiterService is in charge with the public recruiter. It has only two parameters: email and password wich are the email and password you use to login in the game.

AttackService is the attack module. It has the following parameters: email and password the same as above, percentageArmy maximum army that the target can have and is in percent, minGold minimum gold of the target, bankLimit the amount of money when the bank opperation will be performed.

To start the program using java command you have to specify in the classpath all the jar libraries required: commons-daemon, commons-httpclient, commons-logging, commons-codec;

Example:

java -cp <all_the_required_jar_paths_here> com.ovisual.squiddy.dt.service.AttackService -Demail=x@x.xx -Dpassword=xxx -DpercentageArmy=130 -DminGold=10000000 -DbankLimit=20000000

In the above example the email x@x.xx will be used to login with the password xxx. The target will be attacked if the army will be at most 130% of my army and will have at least 10000000 gold. If the amount pilaged is above 20000000 then will be banked.

LE:
I’ve posted the latest binaries and sources.

Using the installed JRE you cen issue these commands in the binaries folder:
For recruiter:
java -cp dtp-beta-0.0.1.jar;commons-httpclient-3.1.jar;commons-logging-1.0.4.jar;commons-codec-1.2.jar -Demail=x@x.xx -Dpassword=xxx com.ovisual.dt.service.RecruiterService

For attacker:
java -cp dtp-beta-0.0.1.jar;commons-httpclient-3.1.jar;commons-logging-1.0.4.jar;commons-codec-1.2.jar -Demail=x@x.xx -Dpassword=xxx -DpercentageArmy=66 -DminGold=10000 -DbankLimit=100000 com.ovisual.dt.service.AttackService

I hope this helps.
