This is not a way for us to shed our responsibilities for maintaining LT. If we wanted to stop doing so, I imagine that we'd find someone else to take over. We believe that this is the best course for the plugin, and we think that the changes will benefit AC.



Lol you did this for no one but yourself since you are 275 now you don't have to worry about macroing. Great, I'm maximum level, lets ruin it for everyone else then.


If you thought this would "benefit" the community perhaps you should have done the research and maybe asked the "community" first, yes? Seems like you don't know the community as well as you thought you did.

Even if we added a "Quit Fellow upon Death" feature, do you HONESTLY think people would turn in on? I very highly doubt it.


As for the SW and ACTool comments: Show one example of running ACTool/SW in conjunction with Lifetank that would not break the rules, ours or Turbines. Spamming /ct doesn't count Honestly, the only reasons I see for running those tools with LT is just to run scripts for alarms. I know they're used for tradebots/tinkerbots, and that's fine.. but not while LT is running as well.


Also, to reexplain.. we aren't disabling ACTools or SW, we're making LT turn itself off in the event it sees either one of these running or installed. So your scripts still work fine, but LT won't be very responsive.


I agree that there is some tweaking that needs to take place to find a happy medium here, but this is what we have for the time being. I'll be honest, some of the ideas expressed across the boards are pliable and is something I don't believe we thought of. Legit discussions are still helpful. Flaming/attacking us for removing more cheating tools isn't. Admitting to using these tools to cheat/UCM is still against Turbine's CoC and therefore VN's, I shouldn't have to remind anyone of that either.

lmao... That makes zero sense. You think because you see a few afk guys at the LS that no one uses the feature?!? Lol, that just goes to show why a new hacked version developed by other players is inevitable.


EVERYONE used the logout on death feature for various reasons. It was, in my opinion, the most important thing next to the actual automated combat.

I'm pretty sure my monarch runs 2 clients on one computer... one with ACTool running a tinker bot, and one with his toon hunting sometimes. If he uses LTX to hunt on a second client on the same machine, will this cause LTX not to function?

As long as he's not running AC Tool and LifeTank on the same client, he should be fine.

The people that complain about this are the vocal minority. We've had about 2,000 unique downloads of this version of LT so far. The number of people complaining about the changes compared to the number of people who downloaded the plugin is very small.

Of course you had 2000.... It's not like macroer's have a whole lot of choice. Sure there is warbot and actool...but who i am kidding.


Nearly everyone will be forced to download it until better alternatives become widespread.

The dual-client setup you described should still run as expected. Launched the 1st client with the tinkerbot enabled. Let it get IG and running. Then uncheck the tinker plugin in Decal and check LT, then launch 2nd client.


LT is only disabling itself if the plugins in question are enabled when LT authenticates. The 1st client will still run since the plugin was already launched, even after you uncheck it, and LT will run if it's already authenticated and you have to re-enable ACTool if the other client needs to relog.

People have to download it for multiple computers, I almost guarantee you over 2,000 downloads didnt come from unique users.


This was a horrible decision on your part and I sincerely hope you either fix this or people will slowly start to migrate to a new plugin.


I never used to have a problem with you, but doing this made you look like a selfish piece of crap.

You may have missed my post on estimated AC population numbers last week, but we have ways of ruling that out.

just one question, did you legitimately get yourself to 275 while remaining at the keyboard the entire time?
