7 Posts	Link to post - Posted February 26th 2017 at 5:57 PM Draigos Hello guys! It is my first time in forum so if this is not the right place to post something like this, i'm really sorry and please tell me where to do it! To the topic: I got 1 to 3 questions: 1 - Is it legal to use autoclicker? 2 - (only if 1 = yes) Can i use it the way i want? ex1: using autoclicker to click faster in though objectives ex2: using autoclicker to level main dps while afk ex3: create a "complex" script that set your formation, level your main, reset the game and start another free play in a cicle. 3 - (only if 2 = no) What is allowed about autoclicker? What is not allowed? There is a page with rules? Thanks!

I, using a pretty advanced one sometimes have it set to click 10 times in one second in field and 1 time in 1 second to level, repeating every 2 seconds and once per half hour click the level all button and click the 'yes' there. do whatever else you need. there are no rules, only rules are to not cheat/hack. clicking is playing, period. but read the rules pinned in the forums, and the rules at the top of in game chat.

Since this isn't a legal matter, proper wording would be "Is this allowed?" Automated (or assisted) ANYTHING in ANY game generally falls under the following questions: 1) "Are other players affected by this?" 2) "Does this give me an unfair advantage against other players?" Since Crusaders of the Lost Idols is not a competitive game, the devs honestly do not care if you use a program to help with a feature that is already part of the game. As long as you're not hacking the game, then by all means, use a tool to help an in-game mechanic since it only affects yourself. However, in competitive games (Overwatch, for example), the use of auto/assist tools would give you an edge over other players that do not apply outside assistance, and so they are typically either discouraged or not allowed at all. Rule of thumb: "No harm, no foul."
