What is RoboBuilder?
RoboBuilder is a program written in Visual Basic that
takes control of your Active Worlds Browser. Under program control
it will make your browser do things you never thought possible!
It's does nothing more than issue keystrokes to your Active Worlds
browser. But as you will see it does this very quickly, and accurately!
This program started as a small tool to help ME build, but as
you will see it has grown to include many features.
What are RoboBuilders Features?
Without getting into much detail, I will outline Robo's
Main features below. Keep in mind that RoboBuilder is not a finished
program, and that I am always interested in input from it's users.
Straight Line
Straight Line duplication is great for building roads
and walls....long roads and long walls! Actually anything that
is duplicated in a straight line is done very well by this routine.
Also included in this routine are the ability to do a (COPY) of,
or (MOVE) the original object a selected distance. This makes
copying or moving structures very easy..:) This routine also contains
buttons for 90 degree rotation of your object, one button rotates
your object 90 degrees either Clock-Wise or Counter Clock-Wise.
All you do to use this routine is SELECT your object then enter
it's SIZE (in mouse clicks, 1/2meter), then enter how far you
want it to make a LINE, or how far away to MOVE or COPY the object.....then
just hit START.
Floor Builder
This routine does basically what it says...it will build
FLOORS! Use this routine to GRAB your land, or LOCK it down! I
should have called this one GRASS PLANTER! With this routine you
just enter again the object size (in mouse clicks 1/2meter), then
the width of your FLOOR (in objects) and the DEPTH (in objects),
then hit START. Robo will then, starting from the top left corner
of your FLOOR, make a back and forth sweep of your FLOOR to cover
it in record time! This is great for anytime you need an AREA
filled! Works great for flat roofs, floors, grass planting, and
huge lakes!
Object Mover
This is the routine that will do something that you just
can't do with the AW browser, move an object a long ways! With
this routine all you do is SELECT your object and then enter the
COORDS that you want Robo to move this object to. Robo will then
as fast as it can, move your object to it's new location, then
TELEPORT you right to it! When using the object mover it is recommended
that you use a VISITOR account. This way if you happen to abort
or otherwise stop this routine that your object will not be placed
randomly as JUNK. Anyone running into your object will be able
to delete it! Also I tag my objects with my email address so if
it does get LOST that you can be notified to remove it. I have
had GREAT success with this routine.....actually thought of starting
a PRIVATE LAND LOCATOR business hehehehehe.
MessageMan Avatar Control
This is a simple macro language for moving and controlling
your AVATAR. Using simple commands you can instruct your AVATAR
to go to coords of your choice and wait for a given amount of
time or a specific time, then it can SPEAK for you, and record
messages, then move on to another location or what ever. All under
your control with the script. Some of the current Script Commands
are: SAY, WAIT, WAITFOR, GOTO, AVATAR. WAIT will wait for a given
number of seconds, WAITFOR will wait for a given TIME, the AVATAR
command lets you change your AVATAR. Other commands and features
will follow, I got a bunch of ideas for this one!!!
Object List
This one was a last minute addition, but I think I will
keep it in there. All this does is let you select from a complete
list of all AW objects(other worlds will be online soon with there
objects). The objects are displayed in a standard COMBO BOX. All
you do is click once on the one you want and the file name is
automatically loaded into the WINDOWS CLIPBOARD, for easy PASTING
into the object properties window!! This will save you from searching
those object lists......after a while you pretty much know what
object you want, but can never remember the exact spelling of
the file name of it! I might add the dimensions of the object
and it's texture if time permits..:)
NOTE: When Robo is working NEVER click on anything but the STOP button!! Never hit any keys or click on ANY Application, if you do when Rapid Delete is running, the application you click on will be sent the DELETE keys!!!! We have seen email disapear in record time...hmmmm....wonder if it can be used as a de-spammer? :)
Remember to EMAIL any problems your having so I can fix them ASAP!!

Hey! Check out this project made with Robo....During the
first stages of RoboBuilders evolution. It's what I have claimed
to be Alpha Worlds largest Enclosed Structure! It's King Bud's
Lost Army Pyramid. If there is a larger enclosed structure, please
let me know! hehehe Just the Roof and the Floor has exactly 20,189
objects and took 10 hours to complete. The rest was added in a
couple hours total....and I'm still not finished with it..:)
