I think it would be fine to implement a routine into the Hunter which monitors the player messages and if you get one from a person which you attacking at the moment then he should stop the attack.

Thx

quite nice idea! should be possible to add for great DEVIL .

Good idea, but maybe it must be implemented quite a bit to be "human like".
For example, if Hunter simply retires every attack when a message from attacked player is detected this could lead to reveal you are using a bot!
In quite half of the cases, infact, it happends that when you are under attack and try to inform attacker that you are on-line, he might miss the message because it's not at pc

I think this is a good idea and I disagree that it would seem less human to recall attacks from players messaging the attacker.  I think it is totally normal to recall if messaged by target, and monitoring ones attacks is perfectly human in my opinion.  I think this would be a good feature.  Also if the target probes you or has any obvious activity that would prove for certain he is online that should be a reason to recall an attack as well.

At least make the hunter more intelligent for messages !

Last night the hunter was attacking one planet, halfway i got a message that he was there.
The hunter then send another attack on another planet of the enemy and again the player send me a message, that he did not understand my attacks anymore.
This is dangerous and can easaly be noticed by a GO, because it is not human behaviour.

If I am using the hunter bot, I have custom messages that I put in place of the "nice town, I'll take it" message of a female saying "light speed activated", turn this on only if you're using the hunter and not the inactives farming bot or it will drive you bonkers.  Everytime it launches an attack on an active player, it notifies me with the message so I can monitor the attack.  I would like to see e-mail or SMS notifications of PM's from players and alliance circular messages so I could respond to them in a timely manner.  An SMS message with the Hunter bot attack launch would be a nice addition too. 


Thanks DH for a great product.

Nah it's ok behavior. I used to farm people that even told me they were online. One time the guy told me to recall my attack but I knew no one could ninja me. Left the attack go and somehow the other side wasn't able to save the fleet - hit happened.
If you are farming and using hunter it might cause problems regarding to limited fleet slots. It would be a waste to attack someone who's online and ready to save ones fleet.

But what you are saying - is human behavior. There's no way GO would ban anyone for not recalling the attack and then sending another wave to another planet belonging to the same player. Maybe it's sleeping time there and the guy won't have time to save his fleet - or maybe he doesn't give a damn. Maybe you just want to bash the guy even if he is online. There is no reason GO would ban you for doing that.
