Leveling up casting skills while AFK allowed?

I read in the rules that any type of macro's outside of the in game hotkeys aren't allowed, but I've seen many people that are AFK leveling up their casting skills. I've been told by other players that this activity is allowed but automating anything else will result in a ban. I'm just checking to ensure this is indeed allowed since I don't want banned. Also, is there a preferred program to use for this?

Thanks in advance!

 

Do it in populated area will get you in trouble. Doing it while gaining exp or farming or killing stuff will get you in trouble. Doing it with tradeskills will get you banned.

Only casting skills. Only.

 

Automating skill ups on forage, tracking and sense heading isn't allowed I assume from your response?

 

Tieing forage or sense heading to movement keys are ok.

Macro forage while afk will result in a forced break.

Only afk macro allowed is spell casting skillups.

 

And swimming right?

 

What about AFK attacking / getting attacked by pets to work on offensive / defensive skills?

 

Dont whine if you drown.

 

Pets would have to be light blue so unless you are 60 troll/iksar with a fungi etc you'll die

 

Ok, so if AFK raising casting is allowed how does one go about it? Getting tired of fizzles!

 

1. Obtain a stack of coins or object small enough to press a key.
2. Place said object on desired key bound to cast a spell, preferably the lowest mana of that spell type.
3. AFK
4. Profit

 

That only works on Mac not suRe how pc players do it

 

Hotkeynet on PC

There's a post about how to do it around somewhere

 

GLS,

Don't forget it's hard for some of the Norwegians to obtain a stack of coins while living on government hand outs

 

Hence the reason I said "object small enough"! I'm a thinker, ya know?

 

I wrote a little applescript to help with my spell skillups. You can access applescript by opening launchpad and typing "Script Editor".

Here's my script with some comments, you can modify it to suit your needs:

delay 3 -- this gives you time to switch to your first window
repeat 100 times -- set this to the number of times to cast
tell application "System Events"
key code {20} using {option down} -- key code 20 is equivalent to pressing the 3 key
delay 1 -- need a tiny delay before running next command
key code {124} using {control down} -- ctrl + key code 124 is equivalent to switching to the next workspace on the right (next toon)
delay 1
key code {20} using {option down}
delay 1
key code {123} using {control down} -- ctrl + key code 123 is equivalent to switching back to your first workspace
end tell
delay 8 -- set this delay to fit the recast time of your chosen spells
end repeat​

 

For anyone interested, I believe this is the post Draeko was referring to: https://www.takproject.net/forums/index.php?threads/hotkeynet-101.4369/

Does anyone have a pre-written script for hotkeynet to level up casting skills on multiple clients?
