Auto Cast Buffs is an automation script for Habitica that casts stat-buffing skills every 15 mins. The script checks the player's class to determine which skill to cast, and checks the player's mana to determine how many times to cast that skill. The player can configure how much mana they want left over after casting.

Summary

Auto Cast Buffs is an automation script for Habitica that casts stat-buffing skills every 15 mins. The script checks the player's class to determine which skill to cast, and checks the player's mana to determine how many times to cast that skill. The player can configure how much mana they want left over after casting.

Before Installing

It is highly recommended that you use a desktop computer for this, as some of the steps don't work well on mobile. First you must uninstall any scripts that do the same thing(s) as Auto Cast Buffs. For example, if you are running the Auto Cast Party Buff Skills script, you need to uninstall it, because Auto Cast Buffs also casts buffs, and these two scripts will conflict with each other. To uninstall a script:

1. Click here to see a list of your scripts. If you're not already signed into your Google account, click the "Start Scripting" button and sign in. Then click on "My Projects" in the main menu on the left.
2. Click on the script you want to uninstall.
3. Click the blue "Deploy" button near the top of the page, then click "Manage deployments".
4. Click the "Archive" button (looks like a box with a down arrow inside), then click the "Done" button. If the script has no deployments, there will be no archive button, and you will see the message "This project has not been deployed yet". In this case, just click "Cancel".
5. In the main menu on the left, click on "Triggers" (looks like an alarm clock).
6. Hover your mouse over each trigger in the list, click the three dots on the right, and click "Delete trigger".
7. If your script had no deployments, you can skip to the last step. If you clicked the "Archive" button, continue to the next step.
8. Click here to open your API Settings. Highlight and copy your User ID (it looks something like this: 35c3fb6f-fb98-4bc3-b57a-ac01137d0847).
9. Click here to open the Habitica Webhook Editor. Paste your User ID in the "User ID" box.
10. On the same page where you copied your User ID, click the "Show API Token" button, and copy your API Token.
11. In the Habitica Webhook Editor, paste your API Token in the "API Token" box, then click "Login".
12. Click the "Delete" button next to every webhook that belongs to the script you are uninstalling. The webhook should have a large title that matches the name of the script.
13. Repeat the above steps for every script you need to uninstall.
