Why use this Cookie Clicker bot?

I created this bot a while back and thought to publicize it since it turned out quite useful to be able to afk the game and still get golden cookies or even be able to make use of Force of hand when a good golden cookie multiplier occurs.

How to import a save file?

The bot will automatically make use of a file in the same folder called: CookieAISaveData.txt, you can export your old save data to a file and rename it as such to import it or you can change the contents of the file and restart the bot to change the file. It is always recommended to restart the bot when a save file is used or when you prestige so the bot is properly initialized.

Is this Cheating?

This is obviously not the way the game was meant to be played, but the game was intentionally designed so users can make use of commands in the command line, even allowing you to set your cookies to any number you want. This bot was intended to only do things so you don't have, not to do things you couldn't do yourself. Using this bot will not get you the cheated cookies shadow achievement.
