Default Bot for joining SNGs

Can someone please write a bot for joining SNGs? It would keep "n" tables open at a time, starting a new one when you leave one of the tables, placing it in a certain place on your screens. I would pay $49.95 for it, perhaps many others would too.

Isn't there already some sort of 'open.exe' file or something that does this already?

I swear I've seen people babble on about it before in this forum.

I'd have the ForumBot do a search and find the thread for you but it's currently making me PROFIT, BITCH, at the tables.

Anything even similar to this available? Would be nice having something handy joining new tables and leaving when finished to data-mine.

I wrote a stupid little script to automatically click the checkbox -- I wonder how tough it would be to take it to the next level.

Hmmmm...

How exactly can you manipulate the interface with party via a Bot (i.e., have it play/click things for you)? I'm a compsci major and can do a lot in c++/java/etc but I haven't the faintest clue how to do something like this. Any help appreciated, thanks.

Just grab window handles and such and send them window messages at the Windows API level. You're pretty much forced into C++ for something like this, or a scripting language that access something that's written in C++ (i.e., AutoHotKey)

We can't all have your youthful energy Raptor. The 24th b-day hits you like a ton of bricks...then the arthritis sets in.

If only I knew what you meant by that...

Sorry, for a CS major I'm pretty computer-illiterate. In other words, I'd appreciate if you broke that down for me. How to I control things at the windows API level? I can write and compile my code here but I have no idea how to code something in C++ to control windows objects. Thanks, sorry if this is bothering you.

anyone else?
If enough people are willing to cough up some change I'll be willing to share the luxury of automated table entry. I think $50 is a little steep though.

What I have is not retail-ready, but it does the job and a little motivation ($$$) could get me to make it more user-friendly.
