Hoytdj's Pokemon Trading Card Game Pocket Bot

This bot is an extension (AKA fork) of Arturo's PTCGP Bot. Thanks for all the hard work Arturo! After any new releases of the main bot, this bot will be updated as soon as possible.

IMPORTANT: Tesseract OCR is required for this to work.

• Download/install Tesseract OCR from here: Tesseract OCR Github Link
• I recommend you install Tesseract OCR under C:\Program Files\Tesseract-OCR. If you install it elsewhere, you must manually open your Settings.ini file and add the full path to your Tesseract executable. For example: tesseractPath=C:\Program Files\Tesseract-OCR\tesseract.exe

What features does this add?

A new "GP Test" mode has been added to the Main account script. When toggled on, the bot will automatically remove all non-VIP friends (i.e., friends that may have pulled a live GP). When all non-VIP friends have been removed, the bot will pause, giving you the opportunity to nagivate to Wonder Picks and look for God Packs. When you're ready to continue, simply toggle "GP Test" mode off. VIP friends are specified in the vip_ids.txt file. List friend codes each on their own line.

Why would you want this?

Managing your friend list is as easy as one click! The bot will automatically take care of removing dead accounts, dud accounts, or simply accounts that just haven't finished rolling.

YouTube Demo & Brief Tutorial

• A new setting "VIP ID URL" has been added. You can add specify a downloadable text file for your vip_ids.txt file (just like you can for ids.txt) vip_ids.txt also supports FC, IGN, and star count. Including the IGN can improve account matching accuracy. Including the star count will apply additional filtering. For example, if your min 2 star setting is 3, accounts with a GP not meeting the minimum will be ignored (not counted as a VIP).

Bonus features:

• Rayer_3's Scale100 - Adds support for 100% scale in addition to the standard 125% scale.
• DietPepperPhD's 5 Pack Method - The "5 Pack No Remove" method skips the remove/add friends step between the 3rd and 4th pack. This means you may have to test 5P GPs, but your effective packs per minute will be faster.
• New Heartbeat Delay option. Use this option to send heartbeat messages more or less frequently. You should not reduce this below your average rerolling run time.
• New "Send Account XML" option. When enabled the Discord alert message for found packs will attach the account XML file. I recommend enabling this option if you are using "5 Pack No Remove" and rolling in a group, so that others can inject the account to check for WP Thanks.

A note from Arturo (which I echo):

The bot will always be free and I will update it as long as this method is viable. I've spent many hours creating the PTCGPB, and if it’s helped you complete your collection, consider buying me a coffee to keep me going and adding new features! https://buymeacoffee.com/aarturoo

Thanks for your support, and let’s keep those god packs coming! 😄
