no one has compiled the game / wallet with the bot in Linux for easier adoption?

Can anyone here do it?

It is already done, and in the OP.

The bot was compiled by ElvenArcher and the source code is here along with the linux and windows executable.

I think I recall something about the bot not working if you have more than 4 cpu cores... which I have, meaning I can't mine with the bot right now. Sad

Edit: Actually, it looks like the client cant launch the game (even without the bot). I have no idea why at all.

Btw, the %appdata%/Motocoin directory is 1.11gb.

Edit: I got the bot working in a VM. There must be something wrong with my Windows 10 installation.

mine was "mining" fine with 5 cpu's but the chain isn't and doesn't want to be synced. IS there a chance lol where could you upload your %Appdata% Motocoin dir without YOUR wallet for us? for the latest blocks and chainstate? Its just not getting along for me.

Curious HOW you get the entire blocks and chainstate? isn't there some script / webscraper for that? so that if someone has that we don't have to do it manually but it can help new people download it rather than come here for outdated mirror downloads of blocks and the chainstate. my windows install is not recognizing the blocks I put them there with no redundant dir structure... I'd love to run it in linux but ... i stopped using linux in 2014 and can't get it to run in linux, at least in windows I can get the wallet to open but its not syncing at all... Trying still to fix this, its been two days, lol... 184 weeks behind...

I have two transactions from 2014, one is 64 000 MOTO and other is around 33 000, haha, omg.
I have a question though are the nods maintained by an open wallet i.e. proof of stake, or does one have to be actively mining to be seen as a "node" in the blockchain. How to use the bot in linux? if someone can PM me please? I don't want to spam the thread with stupid questions...

I will try uploading a new bootstrap.dat. This will allow you to sync right up to when I created it, which would be today.

The bootstrap.dat is the "normal" way to do it. Copying the blocks and chainstate folder is a little bit insecure as your wallet will only verify the last ~300 blocks not the whole chain.
With a bootstrap.dat, your wallet will verify all blocks.

To be seen as a node, you do not need to be actively mining, you just need to be online. Whoever your peers are will see you as a node.

To mine on linux with the bot, download the source code zip file and extract it. Then go into the "game" folder and there will be a file named motogame (no .exe) and you will need to copy that and replace the one that came with the linux qt. Then open the wallet and click the play to mine button. This will launch the bot.

BTW I think someone may have created a new bot because the play time is only ~8 seconds for each level... I'm not sure if the current bot will work. I will try mining all day today though (in a VM) and let everyone know if I find any blocks.
