    Thank you for the advice guys, it is much appreciated.

     

    Yes, I have arrived fresh from the linux world of open source code, but it seems that I have an awful lot to research and learn beofre I can become a useful contributor! :)

     

    I'll have a think on the pros and cons of open source in bot development, as there seem to be some unusual factors which I hadn't considered as I hadn't encountered them before.

     

    Watch this space, and hopefully I can post more intelligent and relevant questions in the future as I get my learning curve up :D

    Google 'open source' and see what results you get back.

     

    Open source or collaborative programming is very common in the commercial programming world, although the benefits of it may not have filtered through to the gaming community.

     

    However, I've been given some pointers to creating bot profiles first, then moving onto bots themselves when I've mastered those, so that's probably a good way forward for me, along with the excellent advice given by bonebox. 8-)

    I'm qualified in programming and I've written commercial code before (Java and C/C++), so I can use an IDE and debugger etc, but I'm new to the world of bots and PoE. I can use other languages too, like lua.

     

    Botting looks quite interesting though, so I'd like to experiment with creating profiles and bots from scratch. I'd usually start by examining existing bots and profiles, so if anyone could point me in the right direction for source materials to research then I'd appreciate it, thanks.
