Does Repeatedly Pressing 'S' Cause the Bot to run again and again?

Open chexbox opened this issue 5 years ago • 3 comments

Yesterday, I tried this bot for the first time and wasn't paying attention to whether it was actually working or not. I repeatedly pressed s, thinking it was crashing part way through, and I got kicked. Did I void the delays?

Pressing s multiple times will currently start multiple instances of the bot, causing problems. You should press e to stop the bot before pressing s again.

Also, the delays are currently insufficient to get around GimKits answer speed caps. I haven't done any testing to see what their limits are. If you know what they are, just submit a PR adding the delay (await sleep(milliseconds))

The main reason for the "run bot multiple times" behavior is crashes - if the bot crashes due to a lag in GimKit, etc, there should be a way to start it again. Ideally, the current behavior would be changed so that pressing "s" stops any existing bots before running a new one.
