Is Xenobot now officially better than Windbot?

I havent been active for the last few weeks, so I am wondering is Xenobot now finally a better bot to use when cavebotting or is Windbot still the best option?
I was honestly only using Xenobot as a healbot for the last 16 months+.

Xenobot users online:
There are currently 3436 users online. 836 members and 2600 guests

Windbot users online:
There are currently 1259 users online. 741 members and 518 guests

Are these numbers realistic? Last time I checked xenobot had 300-400 users online including guests.

We're working out some kinks with the new release. But, I think it is, yes.

They're not fake. We increased the online users to span a period of 24 hours instead of 30 minutes. From research, we've seen that this is the same thing they do over at Windbot and iBot forums, we just caught on late. That's why their user counts always seemed higher, even when XenoBot was dominant.

Once reconnect is released xenobot will oficially be a better bot than windbot.

It does work except after server save since you have to re-type your passwords to start new connection session or whatever.

What nakuu said

For massive botters this might mean 1 entire hour only reconnecting a day, and even more.

I trust xenobot, but i still can't understand how come we have an application to check our characters while we're taking a shit but we don't have a function to login characters.

i'd say the amount of people taking an hour plus to log in their chars, each day, is a minority.
Having pre set macros for account/pass reduces the keystrokes to 1 per account. Just have your computer shut down after SS, it would likely appreciate the downtime, anyways.

Its annoying as shit to have to wake up at 2am to relog my chars.

(I run chars for 7~ hours max, so i have multiple sets logged in a day)

I think what I was trying to get at is the quality of the product doesn't hinge on one feature alone

No other bot allows you to download scripts directly from their bot, for free, so I think it is.

If you were to buy say 5x average priced ($15) scripts at Windbot, plus pay for the subscription, that's around $65 total - that's equal to roughly 8 months of XenoBot time + our scripts are included.

So I'd say its worth it, our free script collection is just the beginning, we will have plenty more over time.

Thanks

I think the Winter update will be our next major target, we'll have to see once the test server opens. If not, we'll probably target Yalahar / Zao next.

Either way, you can always view our Trello here: https://trello.com/b/3bo3eJH4/ox-scripts

That shows what we have planned under 'Next Up'.

and besides these scripts are crowded and will only work in dead servers :(

Trial doesn't have access to the scripts, correct, and any great free scripts are always going to be crowded.

I think its the best and easiest, yes. For me it always been.. Im really glad for darkstar and that the community is growing. At the same time ive always loved the xeno community, a little bit smaller, a little bit better. Not often ive bumped into 10x with the same script at the same place like ive seen windbotters alot of times. Mostly ive been alone with xenobot it felt like, atleast on my server. It made me look alot more legit ;) But anyways, im glad for your progress, keep it going!

Prove it or get the fuck off my forum. There's no reason to insult me or my developers, especially when you don't even contribute to this community.
