Version 5.6 Alano

Hi there!

Contrary to what we expected, version 5.5 is not our last version 5 as announced in the last post, because there was an interesting feature introduction in the S&F world on Wednesday: The SF account as SSO login.

SF account

Since the bot was totally unprepared for something like this, we’ve been working hard the last few days to implement the new SF login.
Characters that you have linked to the SF account ingame (which can’t be reversed currently) can now be added via a new button under “Add account”.
There you can log in, get a character list, select the characters to use in the bot (whether new or existing), and the bot will do the rest for you.
If the bot recognizes existing characters that aren’t linked yet, it will offer to open the import window.

Please note that due to the little time we had, only one SSO account can be added to the bot at this time, although multiple SSO accounts are planned.

Please also note that the implementation is slightly experimental, which means that there may still be bugs here and there that may not have been noticed in the test with a few users.

Miscellaneous

At this point I would like to mention only two points:

Alina: An Alano

  1. After more than 6 years we ran out of letters in the alphabet again, so now (instead of the planned .NET-6 based new version line 6) a new naming line starts with version 5.6: Names of animal breeds!
    We start with the breed of the last dog in our family: An Alano Español
  2. At this point we dare once again to try to draw a line under the .NET Framework based versions with version line 5.6, in order to upgrade to .NET Core and with it some other things with version 6.
    We will keep you updated on this, as we have been working primarily on this for the last few months, we hope we’re able to give you this version for the first test in the near future.

Have a nice week!
Robin
