Help Classic cd key and Special units

Support

Is it possible to run kolbot using only a classic cd key if you only play classic?

2nd
If I am playing manual with automap is it possible to send a detect message or something that alerts me if “Special” Urdars are found? (Not just normal ones want ones that actually give xp) Also it only needs to alert me no one else.

No, because d2bs, like the most known d2 bots, is working only with D2LoD. It wasn’t customized to be able to control D2 classic window, which has different positions for characters or game buttons.

playing manually with d2bs you should see the bosses in different color than the common monsters.

thank you for your response, I do see the monsters as like a yellowish color if they are “special” while the other ones are red if they are not special. I didn’t know if there was a way to change the coloring so for example if it was “special urdars” to make it like a green color or something like that.

Open tools/Mapthread.js and replace the function newHook by this one:

  newHook: function (unit) {
  	var arr = [],
  		classids = [189]
  	// venom: classid = 362, urds: classid = 189, maw: classid = 694 or 309

  	if ((unit.spectype & 0xF) && (classids.indexOf(unit.classid) > -1)) {
  		arr.push(new Line(unit.x - 5, unit.y, unit.x + 5, unit.y, 0x96, true));
  		arr.push(new Line(unit.x, unit.y - 5, unit.x, unit.y + 5, 0x96, true));
  	} else {
  		arr.push(new Line(unit.x - 5, unit.y, unit.x + 5, unit.y, (unit.spectype & 0xF) ? 0x58 : 0x62, true));
  		arr.push(new Line(unit.x, unit.y - 5, unit.x, unit.y + 5, (unit.spectype & 0xF) ? 0x68 : 0x62, true));
  	}

  	return arr;
  },

It should display the urds boss in blue (0x96 is the color). Note that you can add more class ids to the array to display other mobs in blue, like special venoms.
