Hi everyone! Today I bring to you a tool I’ve made that uses the API to calculate how much gold per hour you are making while playing the game. Click here! (screenshots)
How it works:
- First, you have to create an API key in the Applications tab of your account . Make sure you grant the following permissions: wallet, tradingpost, account, inventories and characters.
When you start the application, I scan everything on your account.
- Every 3 minutes, I scan it again.
- I compare what you have right now to what you had when you started the application.
- New items are displayed in the “Acquired items” section, while the items you’ve lost are displayed in the “Lost items” section.
- For each item, I get it’s current value from the trading post.
- I sum everything and display how much gold you’ve made (or lost) as well as how much gold per hour that makes!
Things to keep in mind:
- The data from the API is not always live (in real time). Sometimes it might take 2 or even 3 refreshes before an item appears, so please be patient.
- Currently, your guild banks and the trading post delivery box are not accessible with the API. That means that if you deposit an item in your guild bank, it will appear as a lost item. For the same reason, if you buy an item on the trading post and you don’t collect it, it will never show in your acquired items.
- You can customize the interface and how the application works in the settings!
A special thanks to my friends who gave me suggestions and helped me test the application.
If you find bugs or have suggestions, you can mail me in-game at Deviljeff.1946 or send me a private message on Reddit.
Have a nice day!
