A single-tap keybinder tool for NationStates raiding
I reiterate that this tool is an experimental prototype and should not yet be relied on for public consumption - it is published for legality and accountability reasons, not because it is ready for generalized use. One day, this warning will disappear and Railgun will appear on the Chrome and Firefox stores, and on that day, you can use it in your raids - but for now, developers only, please.
The keybinds of Railgun are similar to those of YAFFeather, so going from one to the other should be familiar. The current list of implemented keybinds is:
- A - Refresh the current page
- F - Move to the current region
- D - RO yourself in current region
- R - Join WA on next puppet
- E - Resign WA on current puppet
- M - Clear WA application "magazine"
- L - Load WA application into "magazine"
- S - Endorse a nation
This tool is not like Feather - instead of clicking buttons on the page, this extension creates and sends custom HTTPS requests to the NationStates server. This approach allows for speeding up certain activities, such as appointing ROs in a single keypress. However, this is inherently riskier than simple keybinding, as the chance for the developer to screw up the rules is magnified exponentially. The developer of Railgun has made every effort to comply with NationStates rules, but mistakes do happen - the developer is not responsible for any unintended or erroneous program behavior that breaks these rules. By using Railgun, you acknowledge that you understand and accept the inherent risks present in using such a tool. This tool is also a prototype - it is not as polished, fully-featured, or streamlined as it ought to be for the sake of rapid development.
