Marcus Hancroft Posted July 29, 2011 Share Posted July 29, 2011 I have a quick question: I am considering creating a scripted agent account (or bot) to use as a greeter in my store and I am wondering...if you create a bot account does it require a viewer running 24 hours a day to stay inworld? In other words: it would need Phoenix running perpetually to be inworld and visible in my store? Or will it just stay behind the reception desk all the time?

Paul Hexem Posted July 29, 2011 Share Posted July 29, 2011 Yes. A bot is just a normal account, like yours or mine. What makes them a bot is the viewer they use. Usually it's a text based viewer because it's low resource and low bandwith, with features like group invite or full sim scanning. Either way though, you'd need to have a viewer running full time if you wanted the bot there full time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chelsea Malibu Posted July 29, 2011 Share Posted July 29, 2011 I myself use a small application made for me that uses very little resources on my PC and is just a coded interface. I turn it on and it logs my Agents and sets them to their respective objects using that objects location and UUID. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Erwin Solo Posted July 30, 2011 Share Posted July 30, 2011 I was pretty happy with the system I used last year. I don't use it anymore because I've pretty much shifted to marketplace. You can search for BOT on marketplace and see what the options are (or send me an inworld message). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
