Actually, you might want to look into this a little more.
When you afk, after a certain period of time, the server will dc you and reconnect.
I've had a random event (lunch lady) walk out from under me when I didn't even click.
The only reason I didn't die was because I was on my honor right next to my main, and switched back to the other client to do the random event.

Hashtag wrote:Rat, it was changed because otherwise the number of supplies in the shop would be so low, it just wouldn't work. We used to have x10~ the supplies and have it compete, but then the legitimate players wouldn't be able to keep up with the auto-ers.
I realize that, but with the system that we have now, it makes it 10x harder to find auto-buyers, which would essentially be the main problem with it. If we can find these auto-buyers, and get rid of them (by means of the Staff Members going on regular bot hunts) then there shouldn't be 'too' big of an issue about it.

I second this, I've gotten random events whilst afk at Prem Skilling glanced back from my xbox and noticed luckily, something else is triggering randoms.

Perhaps the 'action' of going AFK, the moment you go into the chair, counts as your character interacting with something?

Awesome! Hopefully cannon balls and runes won't be totally crashed anymore.

Great work, Mike!
