  • Batch scan all the 11 Nodestones on V-martix UI at once without any manual input.
  • Intuitive and convenience UI. (See Usage)

🔨Setup

🙌Note :
For user's convenience, a executable (AutoNodestone_PyQt_start.exe) is provided.
You can execute the program without setting-up Python envierment.

  1. Download and install Python3.
  2. Download and unzip whole AutoNodestone folder.
  3. Inside your AutoNodestone directory, open a command prompt and run :
pip install -r requirements.txt

🕹Usage

🤔How program evaluate combination?

A valid combination must not violate the rules :

  1. Nodes with the same main skills(skill that appear on first row) can not appear more than once.
  2. Each required skills(selected by user) must appear at least twice.

Program will find 3 different valid combinations with minimal number of Nodes.

Because Nodes with the same main skill can be stacked and enhanced, if there are several valid combinations with same number of Nodes,
the combination with higher stack count will has higer priority.
