/autotinker¶

Script-provided

Registered by autotinker. Start it with /lua run autotinker.

Syntax¶

/autotinker start | stop | status
/autotinker filter <substr> | streak <n>

Description¶

A Tinkering skill-up daemon: crafts random recipes at the current tier, watches the skill-up chat signal, and scribes the next Apprentice Blueprints book from your bags once combines stop granting skill — then repeats.

Tinkering has no trainer or quest progression: new recipe tiers only unlock by scribing a Blueprints book you bought or looted separately. This script automates that craft-until-capped → scribe → repeat loop. It loads and starts immediately.

Subcommands¶

Subcommand	What
`start`	Resume crafting.
`stop`	Pause after the current combine.
`status`	Print current state.
`filter <substr>`	Recipe-name filter (case-insensitive). `""` clears it.
`streak <n>`	Combines with no skill-up before it decides the tier is capped and advances.

How it detects a cap¶

The character's numeric Tinkering skill has never been located in memory, so the daemon watches the skill-up chat channel for a line naming the craft. It treats streak consecutive combines with no such line as "capped at this tier" — the same signal a human tinkerer watches for before buying the next book.

Book ordering

"Apprentice Blueprints" books are consumed on scribe, so the lowest-numbered copy still in the bags is always the next one in sequence. The default prefix only covers the Apprentice bracket — edit BOOK_PREFIX in the script for Journeyman/Adept/etc.

Examples¶

/lua run autotinker
/autotinker streak 8         # advance after 8 no-gain combines
/autotinker status
/autotinker stop
