MillerFeed 🍰

Version: 1.0.0

A lightweight addon for Runes of Magic that automates feeding Miller's Special Cake to your pets. This is a simple but effective method to level up your pets quickly through overfeeding. MillerFeed follows the philosophy of UNIX command line tools: Do one job and do it well! No graphical user interface, no settings, no overhead. Just the slash command on your fingertips. The addon implements support for both semi-automatic and fully automated buy-and-feed modes. No more clicking until death.

🧑‍💻 Why not just using a macro?

That was exactly what i thought too until i found out that it is not possible to use /wait inside of the lua code of a macro, so you cannot use it inside loops. This addon uses the OnUpdate frame callback to check how much time was being elapsed. But if you really only want to use a macro, this is the most effective approach i could figure out:

/script P=2;function F()f=TEXT("Sys204791_name");for i=1,GetPetFeedItem(-1)do SetPetFeedItem(i);if GetPetFeedFoodItem()==f then FeedPet(P)return end end end
/script F()
/wait 0.1
/script F()
/wait 0.1
/script F()
/wait 0.1
/script F()
/wait 0.1

It is not fully automatic, because you still have to spam click the macro icon but at least it is more effective than clicking in the PetMenu. With this macro you can feed up to 8 cakes per second.

📈 How Auto Mode Works

Requirements:

Be at a Pet Hunter NPC (sells Miller's Special Cake - ID 204791)
Have the shop window open
Have enough gold in your inventory

Process:

Validates you're at the correct shop with sufficient gold
Buys 99 cakes (or less if limit/gold is lower)
Feeds cakes to your pet continuously
When inventory drops to 50 cakes, buys another batch of 99
Continues until limit reached or out of gold
Feeds all remaining cakes before completing

Stopping Conditions:

/mf cancel - Manual stop, shows summary
Shop closes - Auto-stops with STORE_CLOSE event
Limit reached - Buys stop, feeds remaining cakes
Out of gold - Buys stop, feeds remaining cakes

🐛 Known Issues

It is happening very rarely that the addon encounters an off-by-one-error in counting down the fed cakes. What can happen then are minor issues like that the information in the chat log is wrong by one cake, that one cake leaves in the inventory, or that the last system message is not captured.
