Auto-Clicking and Cheating Policy

[ZeroTakenaka]

Does an auto-clicker violate the cheating policy? I'd very much like to NOT hurt my hands(or mouse) when playing the game.

Auto clicker is allowed. HolydayStudios said so on Kongregate forum:

we consider cheating when someone tries to alter values directly in the game, like with cheat engine. So far we have managed to block cheat engine, but some cheaters can be more creative. So if someone manages to cheat he will get banned

Is there pvp in this game or something? If not, then why ban cheaters, since they won't be gaining an advantage over others in a pvp type environment? I'm just looking to see where your head is at, and this stance on from what I can tell is just a single player game.

Multiplayer features will be added soon. So you don't want cheaters to access these features and ruin it for the rest of us. They will be banned from accessing these features. They can still continue with the game in single player mode tho.

Personally, a pvp system being added to the game would make me stop playing, as i detest them. That ♥♥♥♥ is most of the reason why i don't play most F2P games.

That said, like what Verkade mentioned, there's soon to be some kind of multiplayer added.

Is this why "donations" are so astronomically high in the higher end guilds? If that's the general expectation, then autoclicking should be an in-game feature not something that requires some questionable third-party source.

That depends on what you consider "astronomically high".
If you mean 200000 guild coins, this is about the average maximum a player can donate with the expeditions only. If you add the PvP, the battle pass and the daily logins, you can see a bit higher than that still.
If you mean higher donations, then the person has bought packs available in the guild shop or from the blimp that spawns every week for a week with sales, for real money.

Basically, expeditions are a set of 5 every 6 hours. That means 4 cycles of 5 expeditions per day.
On average, one cycle will make you donate 50k guild coins to the guild in a month.
