Before reading the instructions, please be aware that this project is not maintained anymore. I found that after each update of Bloons TD 6, all images of buttons, heroes and skills would be outdated. To still use the bot, please create your own snippets of those images and replace the ones in ./resources/. If the flow of the menus was not changed, this should still work with the new images.
The BloonsTD6Bot is a farming bot for the popular tower defence game Bloons TD 6. It is intended to be used to farm Insta-Monkeys during time-limited events such as Easter or Halloween. Bot navigation is done through fuzzy image matching.
The bot is able to finish the map Dark Castle on easy difficulty, standard mode in less than 6 minutes. At the time of creation, this was the fastest way to farm Insta-Monkeys.
