roughnecks Posted December 27, 2018 Report Share Posted December 27, 2018 Hi. I was thinking about creating a random, 1:1 trade bot; meaning that anyone can send an item to the bot and then the bot sends back another item of the same inventory type (e.g. a TF2 weapon for another TF2 weapon). First problem I see is that I should somehow differentiate between donations (my bot is currently set up to accept donations only) and a "lottery" type of trade (people sending an item but expecting something back). I thought maybe they could attach a message like "lottery" to their trade offer and the bot would know it's not a donation, so initiating an outgoing offer soon after, but I only found a "setMessage(message)" method, can't see any "getMessage". Is this achievable somehow? Anyone (with experience) can shed some light about the best course of actions? Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
