I want to be able to create a propdump of a world using multiple bots so
that it will go faster. I can't seem to find any xelagot scripts or
application bots that can do this and I'm not sure how I could do it myself.
:-\

Thanks :)

It uses 1 bot to do it though and for big worlds that'd take forever!

or find one...you couldve already been done one.

Well...I don't know if there IS a faster way to do it. Doing it right from
the server takes just as long as from a bot I believe.

Multiple bots wont speed it up at all. If you have every bot query(all bots
being spaced far enough apart so that queries don't overlap) the results
from these queries doesn't come in any faster. Also, the speed of your
computer, code, and internet connection are probably the only things
standing in the way of doing a query in milliseconds. Multiple bots wont
help. Another fact is that you can use the sdk.AwCellNext method of querying
to do the work faster, if you set it up correctly. So all in all, if you
want a fast query of the world use the awcellnext method, use C++(VB is
WAYYY too slow), get a cable modem, and buy the fastest AMD processor
currently released. :)
