Accessing Fallen London with external programs

[ancusohm]

Hi,

I code a bit in my spare time, and I’m currently thinking about writing up some code for excel that will allow me to better track my inventory in game. (I’m thinking about setting up some functions that do things like calculate the number of a given item I would have if I converted everything into that item).

I could track all of my inventory changes by hand, but it would be helpful if some code could automatically access my &quotmyself&quot page and track my inventory.

This might be a stupid question, but is there any way to do that?

I’m just curious. I would mostly be doing this for fun and as a programming exercise.

Scripts are against the rules, so while it might be a fun and harmless programming exercise I’d advise against it.

Edit: Ah, there’s the quote.

@Alexis Kennedy

All scripts are prohibited, including relatively benign ones that e.g. automate outfit-changing, in part because it’s difficult to draw the line, in part because we dislike wasting time on support and finding that the cause of weird behaviour is user scripts. Of course we pursue some sorts of thing more aggressively than others. We can and will delete accounts permanently.
