With the .NET Core for Linux released by Microsoft, is it worth getting Linux native Bot now ??

The thing to note here is that the .net CORE has ben released on linux (and is quite difficult to compile if you're not using ubuntu) and the .net core is not the whole .net. winforms are yet to be released, if it's going to be at all so the bot cannot run on linux yet.

Another thing to note is that v4 of the bot will consist of a few projects compiled into one, and one of these projects will be a DiceBot Core library that will run purely on .net core. This means that I (or someone with more time) will be able to implement it into a command line bot that will be able to run on unix OSs once the dicbot core dll is done

With new PrimeDice, the Bot does not work any more

Just FYI

[HeyYouGuys]

None of the bots do.

[l2r]

None of the bots do.

Sure, may be some adjustment needed. Wait starts here.

I'm aware of the issue, Primedices API is giving problems when trying to authenticate users. There is nothing I can do to fix it. I am in contact with PD staff to get it sorted asap. Follow me on Twitter for updates etc. https://twitter.com/SeuntjieDiceBot

something tells me that the reason is a CAPTCHA on the login page

According to Micro, that is likely the issue yes

I am using the bot for betterbets.io and am getting the error: An error has occurred! Betting has stopped for your safety.
What is the problem?

Hi Seuntjie,
Thank you for the bot. I've been using it for a couple of months and it's been working great until recently,
I've been experiencing some problems where sometimes the bets stop being reflected to the balance or is not reflected correctly. (e.g. the balance doesn't bounce back after winning after a losing streak, or deducts more from the balance than the loss amount)

It took away most of my balance once, and now I'm a little scared to use it.

Could you please advise on how I can prevent this from happening?

Thanks,

[seuntjie]

Thanks. 

I haven't tested the emails in a while. I know that some ISPs are bitchy about what SMTP servers can be used to send emails, so you might need to set the smtp server to your ISPs. I'll try and test the emails as soon as I get a chance

I am using the bot for betterbets.io and am getting the error: An error has occurred! Betting has stopped for your safety.

This means that an error occurred and the bot stopped betting. For your safety.

When a bet fails for some reason (network error or duplicate hash or whatever) and the bot can't determine whether the bet was placed or not, the bot stops.  I don't know what the problem is because very few sites actually provide error codes. It's usually just server error or timeout errors. So all I know is that an error has occurred.

I have not experienced anything like this since v 3.1.0 ish  (if you're still using an older version, it's your own fault. There're updates for a reason). Obviously, if this is actually the bots' fault, this is a very serious issue and I'd like to fix it asap. so:

On which site are you betting?
Have you compared your balance on the site vs in the bot?
Are you betting at the correct chance you think you're betting at?

What sometimes happen, especially if you have a stop condition set it the bot places the bet but the stats aren't updated. So it just doesn't show the new balance.
Can you describe your settings? or even better, send me and exported settings file? If you don't want to share it publicly, you can email me on contact@seuntjie.com
I need as much details as you can to accurately diagnose/reproduce the bug.

To Re-Iterate, the problem is on PDs side, not the bot. There is nothing I can do to fix it

The bot does this mostly. At 999dice, the bot doesn't place the bet unless is has the server seed hash and the bot sets a new client seed randomly for each bet (completely independent from the site, after the server seed hash has been received)

I'll be honest, I don't know if you can add data to the DB from LUA. I assume there is a sqlite library for LUA as someone implemented some machine learning functions in lua for dicebot and it was reading from the DB. I haven't tried it personally.
If you don't mind me asking, what operations do you want to perform on the DB?
I think the easiest way to add fields to the DB would be to edit this file, specifically the CheckDBS and AddBet functions, in the source and recompile the bot.

Thank you Seuntjie,
I was away from bitcointalk.org and hence late reply..

Can I print/display server seed hash?   lastBet object will contain server/client seed of the previous bet, right? What is variable name of current Bet object?

For the DB operations, I just want to add few fields(extra information) and assign values during script execution (few variables I am using in my strategy script)
I will try sqlite_helper.cs file and will see what I can do.   

thanks

You can see the UML for the bot object at the bottom of https://bot.seuntjie.com/programmermode.aspx, it does have the server seed, client seed and server seed hash for that bet.
There is no current bet object as the point of the bet object is to contain the result of a bet. No point in having an object if the bet hasn't been made.

Hey seuntjie!

Yes, I have seen that UML for the bot object.  As mentioned earlier, most of the sites return server seed hash for the next bet with the result of previously placed bet, right?  so could you please confirm if lastBet.serverhash is server seed hash for the last Bet or coming Bet?  It seems logical that lastBet.serverhash contains server seed hash for the last bet which bot has already placed.   Where does that serverhash go which is returned along with Bet result?  I hope I am making some sense..

thanks

My best advice here is to go look in the code for the site you're betting at (https://github.com/Seuntjie900/DiceBot/tree/master/DiceBot) and see what happens with the hashes and if you want to add checks, add them there, as this differs greatly for different sites based on the provably fair methods and my own trust of the site. (laziness is a bitch)
