Watching a bot

The header every bot page shares, with the character's status, its connection and package controls, the tabs below it, the server choice card and the alerts that report problems. Each bot has a page where you watch it and control it. Open Bot Manager and click the bot's name: the page opens on the Console tab. Every tab shares the same header, so the controls and the alerts described here are always in reach. The header The bot's name sits on the left, with its character's status beside it. O

Read what Asterobot says about a bot, what its script writes and the game chat as the game draws it, in one timeline you can filter, search, copy and write in. The Console tab is where you follow a bot minute by minute. It puts three sources in one timeline, ordered by time: what Asterobot does with the bot, what the bot's script writes, and the game chat, drawn as the game draws it. Below the lines sits the game's chat box: its channel filter, the channel to write in, and the smiley window. W

The Ankama account details and the game server a bot's session reports once the bot is connected. The Information tab shows what the bot's game session says about the Ankama account and about the server it's on. It fills in once the bot has signed in: after Connect for a Full socket bot, or once your Dofus client has joined a MITM bot. Before that, the tab only has a short text pointing you to the Connect button in the header. Disconnect empties it again. When a later connection attempt fails,

Follow your character's items, kamas and pods live, browse them by category, read their effects and destroy items from Asteroboard. The Inventory tab shows what the bot's character carries: its items, its kamas and its pods, kept up to date while the bot plays. It works the same for a Full socket bot and for a MITM bot following the game you play. Turn on live inventory Nothing reaches the tab until you ask for it. On the bot's page, click Inventory. The tab says "Inventory not followed".

Choose which of a bot's game messages Asteroboard shows, then watch them pass in the Traffic panel, read their fields and search them. The Network tool shows the messages going between a bot and the game: what the server sends, and what the bot or your Dofus client sends back. Open it from the bot's Tools tab. It has three panels: Traffic lists the messages, Settings chooses which ones, and Send a game message sends one by hand, which Send messages by hand covers. Why Traffic starts empty A b

Build one game message in the Network tool and send it to the game server as your character, or to your Dofus client as if the server had sent it. The Send a game message panel of the Network tool builds one message from its fields and sends it on the bot's game connection, the same way a script's send() does. Use it to test: see how the server answers a request, or try a message before a script sends it. Before you send Caution A message sent to the server comes from your character, exactly

Follow a bot's character live on its map, walk it to a cell, take it to the next map by a side or through an exit, use doors, zaaps and resources, and travel to any map, on Full socket and MITM bots. The Map tab of a bot page shows the map the bot's character is on, live: where the character stands, who is around and what can be used. From it you can walk the character, take it to the next map by one of the four sides, go through an exit, and use the doors, zaaps, resources and workshops of the
