There is an android similar app that has all the info for the roles, as well as the setups for the main role lists (classic, ranked, etc.). It also lets you track which # claimed which role so you can find likely suspects.
I've used it a few times, works pretty well, but I usually find myself going back to the good ol' notepad.
Good stuff, I like it!
Some tips for improvement: Color the alignments and roles with their in game colors; Have the checklist in order of the list in game; Prevent the input of multiple unique roles; It's also worth posting this on the ToS Forums.
And just curious, was this done using javaFX? I once made a prototype a while back, and the gui elements reminded me of it xD.
And if you have an android device, check out the app I made that does something similar: Town of Salem Assistant
From the feedback I've received, people appreciate trackers to be quick and easy to use. So as you guys continue improving the program, be sure to keep a clean and simple ui, and try to avoid prompting any typing(most people still use their wills =P).
Over the years, there have been alot of open source projects to help with ToS, so definitely check those out if you want to improve! Alot of them are on github, and some have been marketed on this subreddit and on the ToS forums.
Thanks for sharing and keep coding =) !
You seem convinced that I'd miss a community which openly supports blatantly obvious metagaming tactics. (Hint: I don't)
Also: a bot is a piece of software which replaces the player (most of the time by means of intercepting communication paths, rarely by modifying the game client).
My software is incapable of modifying the game. My software is incapable of intercepting communication pathways. My software is incapable of hooking into the game.
It's effectively impossible to break the current terms of service (May 28, 2020) with my tool.
If I'd be banned BMG kinda has to ban all users of this little app as well: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=hari.tosHelper
Because technically, they do exactly the same with only two differences: My version runs on Windows and (in the future) has a fake will ready to be copied.
As a matter of fact, since the Android app is still there I suspect legal action wasn't possible, very interesting, much surprise, wow!
