Hi everyone,

I would like to suggest a feature that send alarms like Player attack alarm from your xenobot to your smartphone or tablet.

Why would I like to have this?
Most of the time my laptop is on my desk upstairs and since I don't like to sit next to my laptop all day to check if my bot is still running.(thats the main reason I bot and I guess most of you do.)
So I would like to sit downstairs and chill some but the only problem here is that I never know for sure if my bot gets stuck or maybe attacked by other players or maybe even disconnected since I can't hear the alarms all the way downstairs.

So wouldn't it be great if we just get an alert message on our phones so I just down stairs without stress:)

I hope you guys liked my idea and if not please tell me why you didn't like it.

Yours,
Kasper

Oh, I used search functions but I found something like an SMS alert. I would like that it plays a sounds file on your mobile deivce.

Too complicated, else other people would have made it already a long time ago :)

If DarkstaR adds some webservice so I can read json data with such info or whatever I can make such app. Sadly right now it would require from me to write an desktop app as well which I cba to do.

Or it's actually quite easy, but won't do it for free cuz I am really busy atm with making some another mobile app and some other stuff

Depends how many people would be interested because I'll have to buy a server as well. But as I said, I won't have time probably until like next month.

It would be nice to get an mobile app with info about your current chars that are botting.

Yeah, that would be cool.
Hate waking up seeing bot offline for like 6 hrs because my internet is bad.

Make a program in C# or w/e that scans a text file that your xenobot script updates a log to, use the program to open that text file and send the latest line as a 'text' by using an email service like Google.
