Automating In-Game Purchases

Mechanics:

1. Monitoring In-Game Market: An AI bot monitors the in-game market for specific items or resources. The bot tracks prices, availability, and other relevant metrics.

2. Trigger Event: When the price of a desired item drops below a specified threshold, the bot triggers the automation process. The bot verifies that the conditions are met and prepares to execute the purchase.

3. Multi-Step Process:

   • Step 1: Check item availability. The bot interacts with the game server to verify the availability of the item.

   • Step 2: Execute purchase. The bot sends the purchase command to the game server.

   • Step 3: Confirm transaction and update player inventory. The bot ensures that the purchase is confirmed and updates the player's inventory.

Example Code:

// Example of an in-game purchase automation contract
interface IGameMarket {
    function checkItemAvailability(uint256 itemId) external view returns (bool);
    function purchaseItem(uint256 playerId, uint256 itemId) external;
}

contract GamePurchaseBot {
    IGameMarket public gameMarket;
    address public owner;
    IERC20 public ntrToken;

    constructor(address _gameMarket, address _ntrToken) {
        gameMarket = IGameMarket(_gameMarket);
        owner = msg.sender;
        ntrToken = IERC20(_ntrToken);
    }

    function automatePurchase(uint256 playerId, uint256 itemId) external {
        require(msg.sender == owner, "Only owner can trigger");

        // Step 1: Check item availability
        require(gameMarket.checkItemAvailability(itemId), "Item not available");

        // Step 2: Execute purchase
        gameMarket.purchaseItem(playerId, itemId);

        // Step 3: Update player inventory (handled by game server)
    }
}
