Slayer App

WHAT?

The purpose of this app is keeping track of your slayer task & drops.

HOW?

INSTALL --> video guide here!
1. Open the integrated browser in alt1
2. Enter this url http://hosted.runeapps.org/slayer/
3. Click the 'Add app' button and make sure you give it all permissions!
BASIC
1. Setup a slayer xp counter if you don't have one yet.
2. Use the 'kills left' option on your slayer helm/gem.
3. Alt+1 while your mouse is over the 'your current assignment is...' in the chatbox.
Done, the app should now have found your task & displayed it in the apps interface.

TODO

• Detect slayer task & kills left

• Countdown kills left

• Display xp/hr

• Display xp/complete task

• Save & dispay drops when alt1ing on the 'take' or 'use' option

• Improve the droptab interface

Feel free to post suggestions!

Re: Slayer App

Can't wait to see and make use of this on my way to finish up 99 slayer.. Do you have any estimated time of when it'll possibly be able to be added?

Re: Slayer App

Perhaps adding something which looks at the chat to see if something like a spring cleaner has broken down pieces would be a good idea for this slayer app, seeing as you won't be able to alt 1 those items, although if you have to alt+1 over every drop you want to log, this would probably only be used for unique drops, making the spring cleaner feature kinda obsolete.

Re: Slayer App

I have exams for another 2 weeks, I could bring out the basic version (only slayer kill tracking) if you guys want that?

I'd be fine with what ever you are able to produce for the time being.

I don't know if a Spring Cleaner calc is feasible/can be integrated in a way that doesn't mean we have to manually enter things in, but if it is, IT WOULD BE FANTASTIC.

I wonder if you could have a check from the drops log/menu for "SC" and that would change the price tabulation. Possible option for Spring cost = X (manually inputted in the app settings) to be removed from the SC price given as well?

Hoping!

Re: Slayer App

For some reason it won't see the third XP counter no matter what I do, it only comes up as finding the first two :s please fix.

Edit: okay so this isn't just an issue with your app, every app to do with XP seems to be messed up for some odd reason for me. if I go and make an XP counter to 0 or switch it and gain some XP it seems to not be able to find that counter ever again.

Re: Slayer App

Yes, this is probably a problem with the alt1 api, I have submitted a fix to skillbert for this app.

EDIT : Make sure you have at least 2k slayer xp on your counter, then startup the app.

I ended up getting it to work, oddly enough I went into the legacy interface and started killing and after like a kill or two it finally decided it was going to see the XP counter for slayer >..<couldn't find it at all when I was in rs3 layout no matter where I put the counters..

Re: Slayer App

So I guess there is a bug with it not being able to register correctly..

when in the rs3 layout it can't/won't be able to see either the slayer assignment nor the XP counters, but when I go into legacy interface it finds both things within seconds.. :s slayer XP counter is way above 2k and XP counters are on a dark surface so they are easy to see..

Re: Slayer App

I took a look at your screenshot and it looks like you might have desktop scaling enabled. It needs to be disabled for both Runescape and Alt1. Please make sure you post a screenshot compressed as png next time, a lot of the detail is lost when using jpeg compression.

Re: Slayer App

How to disable desktop scaling for runescape :
To do this, right-click the application’s shortcut and then click Properties. On the Compatibility tab, select Disable Display Scaling On High DPI Settings, and then click OK.

If this doesn't work here is a guide how to disable display scaling globaly : http://runeapps.org/fixdpi .

Re: Slayer App

Had scaling enabled, disabled it and sure enough it worked.

Looks like Win 7 went away from right click compatibility mode, unfortunately. Had to turn it off globally. Skillbert, get Alt1 to work without it disabled and be famous forever! My eyes really don't handle the smaller scaling everywhere.

Re: Slayer App

I'm getting double ticks off the counter when killing black dragons and receiving the strength drop.

Re: Slayer App

Re: Slayer App

Ahh, no I have 3 counters up: PRayer, DG, Slayer. I wonder if it's actually the prayer drop just with enough delay to appear the str. (Using bone crusher while on slayer)

Am I only able to have the Slayer counter for the app to work?

Edit: It is NOT the prayer counter, and does seem to be the Str drop. Preparing a gif.

Edit 2: Here is what it looks like, http://gfycat.com/KeenDisloyalBarbet

Re: Slayer App

Something alone these lines would be a great addition to the app as well. Slayer level, Slayer exp...possibly combat exp as well?

Re: Slayer App

Sorry it took so long to get back with an image for my problem... Just been dealing with other issues that were more important than this.. anyways here is an image of my everything..

As you can tell it can see my xp meters and my slayer task but it's still telling me in the end that it can't find it. I already have desktop scaling disabled as it's always the first thing I disable whenever I do a clean install of my computer so that is not the issue.

Edit: looks like this app is obsolete to me now though anyways since the ninja team has added a slayer counter to the game that is toggable to be always visible.

Re: Slayer App

It seems like it didn't detect it because the word 'go' wrapped to the next line.

...that was seriously the issue all along right there, as soon as I stretch out my chat box a bit more and fitted everything around it started working.

Re: Slayer App

Players can now turn on an overlay to display their remaining Slayer target count from the Interface Settings interface.

^^ from runescape patch notes, tell me if you still want me to extend this app, if yes how so?
