[Suggestion]: Automatic restart after an error about capsulefarmerevolved

[BlueKossa]

Create a file called run.sh (or something else) with this in it

#!/bin/sh
while true
do python3 ./main.py
done

then to run it, sh ./run.sh

Please we need this Poro. I also missed drops because of it. I'd suggest doing it like this:
If the program recovery fails, wait 10 minutes to try again. That would be a nice solution!

It does automatically restart three times. However, after three unsuccessful recovery attempts it shuts itself off to prevent account/IP blocking.

I'm using this script to check whether CapsuleFarmer is running or not. I run it on Windows, but this could be modified to work on other systems too. Feel free to use it:

import os
import win32gui
import time

class Restart:

    def check_program_running(program_name):
        def callback(hwnd, hwnds):
            if win32gui.IsWindowVisible(hwnd) and win32gui.GetWindowText(hwnd) != '':
                hwnds.append(hwnd)
            return True

        hwnds = []
        win32gui.EnumWindows(callback, hwnds)

        for hwnd in hwnds:
            if program_name in win32gui.GetWindowText(hwnd):
                return True
        return False

    def start_program(program_path, start_dir):
        try:
            os.chdir(start_dir)
            os.startfile(program_path)
            print(f"{time.ctime()} Started program: {program_path}")
        except:
            print(f"{time.ctime()} Could not start program: " + program_path)

    program_name = "CapsuleFarmerEvolved.exe"
    start_dir = os.path.dirname(os.path.abspath(__file__))
    program_path = start_dir + "\\" + program_name
    check_interval = 600 # in seconds

    while True:
        if not check_program_running(program_name):
            print(f"{time.ctime()} Program not running. Starting now...")
            start_program(program_path, start_dir)
        else:
            print(f"{time.ctime()} Program running.")
        time.sleep(check_interval)

Has to be in the same folder as the CapsuleFarmer, or change the start_dir variable to wherever the .exe or the main.py is.

In case you are not using the exe you also have to change the program_name variable to main.py

Temporary workaround is:

create a textfile in the directory with the CapsuleFarmer.exe
open the textfile and write in it:

:1
CapsuleFarmerEvolved.exe
goto 1

save and rename the file ending to .bat instead of .txt

if you run the file now, it should restart itself after crashing

Thank you for the answer. Enquiry about this.
You always talk about an .exe. My bot is running on my RPI 4 and strong the bot via the python main.py. Would that also work with it?

[IttsGod]

Sorry, thought u were using the EXE on Windows
Im running it on my Raspberry Pi 3 too, but on Docker which with the commands in the Readme already auto restarts it

For All Who want to use this:
It's required Python and pywin32 Library (pip install pywin32) installed on your computer.
