True, also most player deaths are due to obvious mistakes - YASD (Yet Another Stupid Death), mistakes that the bot will only ever make once and then be programmed to avoid.
- schoen 12y agoYeah, I guess a major advantage for a bot is being totally disciplined and never impatient. "No, I won't read that yet; yes, I will #untrap three times; no, I won't go down these stairs with the cockatrice corpse; no, I won't eat this giant while satiated" and so on. It can be hard for human players to have absolute discipline about not doing actions that they know could theoretically cause instant death. Also, the bot can safely walk along the edge of lava without falling in due to a typo. :-)
- chongli 12y agoYes and bots are capable of using techniques that are far too onerous for humans to pull off such as retracing your own steps perfectly whenever the need to backtrack arises. Humans invariably make mistakes while doing this and wander into traps and die.
