Nothing built in, but someone posted an AutoHotkey script recently, and I posted a js script on the last page.

My JS script allows you to auto cast anything you can put on the hotbar.

Where is this js script

I made an autocast script, paste the following in to you browser console. I've only tested it with chrome.

code:
// I shamelessly stole this sleep function from the first google result I saw
function sleep(ms) {
  return new Promise(resolve => setTimeout(resolve, ms));
}

// Dislaimer: I wrote this for personal use, so if anyone else uses it and it messes up their game it's not my fault.
// slotNumber, quickslot number of the spell you want to cast 1 through 10
// numberOfCasts, how many times you want to autocast the spell
// castDelay, delay in ms to wait between casts
async function autocast(slotNumber, numberOfCasts, castDelay) { 
    for (i = 0; i < numberOfCasts; i++) {
        console.log("Casting spell in slot number: " + slotNumber);
        console.log("Autocast progress: " + (i + 1) + "/" + numberOfCasts);
        document.getElementsByClassName('quickslot')[slotNumber - 1].childNodes[0].click(); 
        console.log(castDelay + "ms until next cast attempt.");
        await sleep(castDelay);
    } 
}
Example, cast the spell in slot 1 5 times every 30 seconds:
code:
autocast(1, 5, 30000)

Any advice for picking between Sorcerer/Wizard/Thaumaturge for T4? All seem fairly vanilla, not sure if there are any upgrades they offer that would make one lean one way or the other.

Is there anything interesting in Lore after 30? I have like 9 extra levels I could train in, but I don't wanna waste hours that could go into elemental stuff if it's all empty.

Huh, refreshing did something buggy to my savegame and re-enabled the option to buy lower-tier classes, so now I have almost all the t2 and t3 classes. The upside is that I have a truly grotesque amount of skills and options, but it somehow skunked my stamina regen so I went from +1.something/s to -0.1/s and nothing seems to change it.

jesus, I had it at 4.3 this afternoon I bet I can get it to 10+ easy if they buffed it again

I'm sad there's no house with more than 400 storage (420 for two specific classes, and yes, one's a giant tree so it might be deliberate) because I want one of all the special buffing buildings and even with voidlore there's no room

There's an upgrade at 30 lore that kills your stamina regen to give a bonus to planes lore and various evil skills.

You only get one from every tier unless you get the refresh bug. There's no real continuity to it other than Max skills sometimes letting you get other in the same path easier

That's a bug, refreshing might fix it (or alternatively you're misreading and they're the T2 options)

For the time being, it seems to be the groundwork for a new mechanic in noncombat dungeons.
Though, the reward from those dungeons is working out weird.
Got five levels in herbalism and presumably the same in Nature given the mana/new spells despite having neither of them unlocked or Nature even an option to unlock just yet.

Sometimes, in a city this dirty, you need a real hero.
I've been playing NGU for a few days now and i'm noticing a few oddities with offline progression, namely in the autoadvance stuff.

Like, i noticed the augment's don't progress like they do online and both exceed the cap you've set on an augment and not be as far ahead as it should be in the next one.

I've just unlocked the auto advance on skills and i'm seeing the same thing. The max to cap will long have been reached but the next skill will have barely started (if at all).

Is this a bug or a feature?

This feels like what idle loops would have been if stopsigh didnt insist on a game being perfect and giving up amd moving on to a new idle game 2 weeks in.

Or rather the game idle loops was supposed to be automating since it abstracted idle games another layer but still.

Everyone complained about Evolve having such low storage limits and needing constant attention and having the same problems as Kittensgame but none of you dumbasses have noticed that Arcanum IS essentially Evolve/Kittensgame :eng101:

Is there a prestige mechanic yet in Arcanum? I haven't seen anything about one

Safari Disco Lion

Boss, if they make us find seven lost crystals, I'm quitting.

The thing is Arcanum has a lot of things I can just let idle while I do other stuff. Evolve was basically micromanaging ALL the time without any real breaks. The only obnoxious bit about Arcanum so far is selling and buying different furnitures to reach specific research/gold caps or something, but that's not an issue once you have bigger houses.

Wasn't one as of a few days ago, no idea if one's been added right now - there's void mana that has no use and some drops like Ichor that have no use and chronomancy only does the one thing, so probably eventually

idk, I'm feeling it a lot more than Kittens/Evolve. it helps to know you should be shooting for the easy to get auto-scroll/codex upgrades, that alone cuts out an amazing amount of micro you'd otherwise need to keep coming back to.

There is not, but there are so few items that you can just kinda memorize what you don't have.

Eventually. Seems the plan is first to fill out all of the classes and other content then do prestige stuff.
