| accepted | how/where? | not accepted |
why? |
|---|---|---|---|
| community translations / adapting the tool for non-English clients | discussions section | direct code-input / pull requests | this is my personal fun-project, and I'd like to find solutions and fix problems myself |
| constructive feedback & ideas | ideas & feedback section | outlandish feature-suggestions disguised as "QoL" | I avoid features that are "OP" or abusable |
| bug reports | issues section | requests to "fix"/improve something that only GGG could | I'm self-taught and lack any dev knowledge outside my niche |
| expectation | reality |
|---|---|
| trade/stash/account features | I exclusively play SSF and wouldn't even know how to implement such features either |
| profit/efficiency-oriented features | I'm a super casual player who plays for fun, without any ambitions or goals |
| polished, focused product that meets certain standards | I throw in features and do things as I see fit because I don't regard my project as a "product" but instead as a personal collection/toolkit |
| things this tool does | FAQ: has GGG approved this? / can I be banned? | |
|---|---|---|
| reads the game's client.txt log-file for certain character stats | to my knowledge, GGG has never approved any 3rd-party tool | |
| sends key-presses to copy item-info or activate chat-commands and in-game searches | I can't make any claims regarding bans, only that I strictly follow GGG's guidelines | |
reads the screen for context-sensitivity only (i.e. to adapt script-internal processes) |
(weak) annectodal evidence: I have not been banned, nor have I heard of anyone else being banned |
