BTs/макросы — исправление проблемы с производительностью

В одном из последних изменений в версии 1.6 я внес баг, из-за которого переключение между BTs/макросами в некоторых случаях становилось мучительно медленным. Особенно это было заметно, если у вас было несколько макросов с большим количеством нод.

Этот патч исправляет проблему. Я буду внимательно следить за ситуацией.

Пожалуйста, сообщайте о любых случаях замедления UI, которые заметите.

C#-скриптинг в BTs — IEnumerator

Крупное пополнение нашей библиотеки инструментов. Подробнее здесь.

Исправления и улучшения

• [UI] Исправлен вертикальный скроллбар в Macros
• [BehaviorTrees] Оптимизировано время загрузки BTs
• [BehaviorTrees] Исправлен некритичный (восстанавливаемый) краш, возникавший при быстром переключении между несколькими BTs/макросами
• [Scripting] Оптимизировано разрешение зависимостей — теперь оно должно потреблять меньше памяти и работать быстрее
• [Packs] CheckForUpdates в Packs теперь по умолчанию отключен. При необходимости вы (автор) по-прежнему можете включить его.
• [BehaviorTrees] Добавлена поддержка IEnumerator<NodeStatus> в BTs

Патч первого дня для 1.7

По вашим отзывам в этом патче исправлена проблема, обнаруженная в системе автообновления: если была включена опция Security Measures, приложение обновлялось некорректно и после перезапуска откатывалось на предыдущую версию.

К сожалению, по очевидным причинам я не могу просто выпустить обновление, которое само это исправит. Есть два варианта решения:

1. Временно отключить Security Measures в Settings, обновить приложение, а затем включить опцию снова.
2. Перейти в Downloads, скачать установщик и запустить его. Не переживайте, все ваши настройки сохранятся.

Пожалуйста, продолжайте сообщать о найденных проблемах!

Исправления и улучшения

• [UI] Исправлено автообновление — теперь оно должно корректно работать во всех 4 режимах: standalone, portable, а также с включёнными и выключенными security measures.

New Release — 1.7 (RU/EN)

A lot of work went into making Behavior Trees and the entire scripting system more flexible. We can now finally build bots using only Macros and Behavior Trees, without needing to rely on Auras.

Combining two complex systems (Auras and BT) made the logic harder to follow, so the new nodes should make things much clearer. And this is not the end of it — more changes are coming soon, especially around preview-related functionality.

Screen Capture — BREAKING CHANGE

For many years, all Capture triggers (Image/Color/Text/ML) required the Target Window parameter — EyeAuras worked only with windows.

Starting with this version, we are trying a different approach:

• If Target Window is not specified, EA will capture the primary screen.

What does this mean in practice?

• Previously, clearing the Target Window field would effectively stop those triggers from working. Now it simply switches them to primary screen capture mode. I strongly recommend using Enabling Conditions to control capture. This is important! Check your old triggers to make sure there are no "test" or "forgotten" ones — they will start consuming CPU.
• One less setup step if you are configuring something for personal use: in many games running in Borderless Windowed mode, or similar fullscreen-like modes, specifying Target Window is no longer required.
• Once the window dependency is removed, working with mouse coordinates becomes simpler — every coordinate becomes absolute.
• Anything related to clicking objects on the screen should continue to work as before. If you notice any issues, please report them.

IMPORTANT! Multi-monitor setups are not supported yet. Only the primary screen is captured. Support will be expanded in the future.

Behavior Trees & Macros Improvements

• Major Macros changes: macro flexibility has been significantly expanded.
• New CV-based nodes: computer vision nodes that act as trigger equivalents. For simple bots, triggers are no longer required!
  • MLSearch together with MLFindClass — works with ML models and lets you filter ML search results. Combined with MouseMove improvements, you can build a point-and-click bot in minutes.
  • PixelSearch — finds a pixel of the specified color.
  • ImageSearch — finds an image.
  • ColorCheck — checks whether the color of a pixel/area matches the expected value.
• New logic nodes: let you control execution flow.
  • Interrupter — conditionally interrupts nodes that are already running.
  • Timeout — sets the maximum time a child node may remain in the Running state.
  • CheckKeyState — checks the current state of the specified key.
  • IfThenElse — if..then..else as a BT node, useful for users who are just getting familiar with BTs.
• Undo/redo in BT: you can now undo/redo node additions and deletions with Ctrl+Z / Ctrl+Y.
• Hotkey activation: BTs and Macros can now be started directly with hotkeys.
• Login Widget: a simple widget that can be used in mini-apps for EyeAuras-based authentication.
• PopOut View: a read-only popup window for BT/Macro testing and debugging.
• BT variable support: nodes like MouseMove can now use CvLastFoundRegion from CV searches.

C# Scripting System

• Precompilation and script persistence: scripts are compiled ahead of time, reducing runtime delays. Compiled binaries can be stored to avoid recompilation after restart.
• API File Provider: scripts can inject and load additional files (.css, .js, .md, .dll) via IScriptFileProvider.
• NuGet package support: packs automatically fetch and package required NuGet dependencies for a better offline and startup experience.
• Keybind attributes: scripts can bind methods to hotkeys via [Keybind].
• Dependency Injection improvements: cleaner script structure thanks to [Dependency] or init properties for services such as SendInput.

Trigger Improvements

• Lifecycle Events Trigger: added triggers such as AppStarted, making it possible to automate processes without showing the EA UI.
• ML Search: some basic models can now be downloaded directly from the UI. In the future, the same system will be used to distribute "standard" models such as HP bar detection.

Packaging and Distribution

• Script protection (ShadowForge): closed alpha version of obfuscation and IP protection for distributed scripts.
• Pack compilation modes: scripts only, scripts + binary, or binary only (with obfuscation).
• Pack distribution policy: packaged-only distribution can now be enforced to simplify onboarding.
• Feature exclusion for packs: ability to disable CV or Input for lightweight builds.
• Start Minimized & Minimize to Tray: new packaging options for standalone applications.

Computer Vision API (Experimental)

A programmable interface for Image Search, Pixel Search, ML Detection, and Text OCR with OSD overlay support. More details here.

Authentication and Licensing

• Semi-offline mode: the first steps toward fully offline use of the application.
• KeyLogin: sign in with license keys — no account required.
• Sublicensing: tiered access to paid packs and features.

Performance and Optimizations

• Cold start optimization: startup time reduced by up to 15%.
• Modular feature loading: RAM and CPU usage optimized by excluding CV/Input where they are not needed.

EA will now show an error if you try to set a name containing a dot, just like it does for other invalid characters.
• [Web] Fixed links on the Aura Library page — the hostname was missing.

Деревья поведения — в некоторые узлы добавлена опция Invert

Новая опция пока доступна только в тех узлах, которые работают с захватом изображения: проверка цвета пикселя, ML, поиск изображения и т. д.

По смыслу она очень простая и полностью эквивалентна узлу Inverter, но встроена прямо в сам узел.

Причина в том, что BT обычно разрастаются очень-очень быстро, и уменьшение общего количества узлов помогает сохранять структуру дерева более понятной и аккуратной.

P.S. Да, последние несколько недель были довольно тихими. Внутри я работаю над новой крупной функцией, которая станет доступна публично позже в этом году. Буду держать вас в курсе.

Исправления и улучшения

• [BT] Исправлена ошибка, из-за которой при массовом удалении нескольких узлов отображалось множество ошибок

Улучшения производительности — пожалуйста, сообщайте о любых замеченных проблемах

Проделан огромный объём работы над внутренними механизмами программы — слишком большой, чтобы перечислять всё по пунктам. Такие изменения нередко приводят к цепочке мелких багов, поэтому, пожалуйста, обращайте внимание на любые странности в работе и сообщайте о них. Я буду внимательно следить за входящими сообщениями.

Поведенческие деревья — добавлена поддержка Undo (CTRL+Z) / Redo (CTRL+Y)

Писать скрипт в узле ExecuteScript, а потом случайно удалить его — то ещё удовольствие. Знакомая ситуация.

Теперь такие изменения можно быстро откатить прямо на месте. На данный момент Undo/Redo поддерживает только добавление и удаление узлов. Поддержка изменений других типов появится, как только механизм станет достаточно стабильным.

Исправления и улучшения

• [BT] Исправлена ошибка в BT, из-за которой можно было удалить узел, соединив его выход с его же входом...
• [UI] Улучшена поддержка Semi-Offline mode — доработан алгоритм обновления токена, теперь всё должно работать плавнее
• [Scripting] У IBlazorWindow появилось новое свойство TitleBarViewType, которое позволяет полностью заменить заголовок окна на любой вариант по вашему выбору

Bugfixes/Improvements

• [BT] Fixed a problem with Debounce node not saving properties
• [Crash] Fixed Import-related crash which happenede when clipboard containted link to unsupported file
• [UI] Fixed a problem with full-screen region selector - selection was off a bit

Behavior Trees / Macros - Activation Conditions - Hotkeys

Previously, there was a single way to make Trees and Macros "tick" and "run" (correspondigly). If you wanted to make the tree run when/while some hotkey was pressed, you had to use a separate Aura with HotkeyIsActive trigger in it. In the new version you can just add that same hotkey in the Tree/Macro straight away, reducing number of operations and complexity of configuration drastically.

Interception conditions

In original HotkeyIsActive triggers, there is a functionality, which allows to restrict hotkeys to a specific window/application/etc.

This mechanism is directly responsible for enabling/disabling hotkeys handling at any given moment. By adding one or multiple auras you can specify exact set of conditions, which must be met before Trigger will start doing anything.

For example, by linking Aura which has WindowIsActive in it, you will make Trigger react only to keys which were pressed while game window is active.
In more complex cases, you can link the trigger to some in-game condition, for example, you when you click RMB(part of HotkeyIsActive configuration) AND some powerful skill is off-cooldown(linked condition), instead of casting whatever is usually on RMB, you'll simulate key press of a button which casts that skill. A good example would be automating cast of Vaal Skills on Path of Exile - you have the usual version of a skill bound to some button which you spam and whenever Vaal version got enough souls, it will be automatically release without you having to remember about it.

In BTs, the equivalent will be adding Enabling Condition on the tree itself - just like you did it before. The hotkey will be intercepted only if Enabling Condition is met. We'll see how that approach goes - please send your feedback.

New Node - Interrupter - MAJOR

Very important new node in BTs ecosystem - it allows to conditionally interrupt already running nodes. Usually, when some node is Running (like Wait or Until Success), there is no chance to other nodes in the tree to do anything - EyeAuras just waits for the node to complete its work. In contrast, Interrupter node, when executed, ALWAYS runs Condition(left) node, even if the Action(right) node is Running. Moreover, if Condition succeeds, instead of giving control to already Running Action, it will interrupt it from further activity. This could be used to break long-running actions (e.g. Wait) or make some loop(like Until Success) stop on demand - the node is emmensely powerful given right conditions.

New Node - Check Key State

Very simple node, which checks the current state of the specific key. If it is pressed, the node returns Success.

New Node - Timeout

Another node which is expected to be paired with long-running nodes such as Until Success - it allows you to put a maximum time which you "allow" the child node to Run. The first combination of nodes which comes to mind is something like this:

By combining Timeout -> Until Success -> Image Search you basically tell the tree Keep trying to find the image until you Succeed, but no longer than for 2 seconds.

Performance - startup time improvements

Started to work on startup time improvements and, more specifically, "cold" (first) start.

Here are startup times for the latest pack for GTA5 by @linx - https://eyeauras.net/share/S202503032233289fPxqP4AA0N0 v8215 - 33.41s v8224 - 28.89s

So the new version is approximately 15% faster on the first launch.

Subsequent launches: v8215 - 29.38s v8224 - 27.10s ~8% faster.

I will keep working on improving those stats.

Packs - added ability to disable modules from loading

Sometimes, you do not need ALL the functionality which is built into EyeAuras in your Packs. For example, if your pack does not use computer vision at all, it does not make much sense to load CV-related modules into the memory - this is waste of both CPU and RAM. With the new functionality around working with applications directly - such as reading memory - it is expected that there will be more and more cases where you just want to use EyeAuras as a platform for development and distribution own of your app.

This feature is intended to be used exactly for that purposes - you now can disable some parts of the application from loading. Those modules, which are blacklisted:

• will not ever be loaded into memory
• will not load any dependencies
• will not even be decrypted, meaning they could not even be scanned/flagged as they never leave encrypted blob of data they are distributed by default

For now, we have two types of modules which could be excluded:

• Computer Vision - All types of capture-related functionality (Image/Color/ML Searchers, etc)
• Input Simulation - Send Sequence/KeyPress/MouseMove and all other input-manipulation actions. p.s. Note that HotkeyIsActive is still available

How much does it save?

• Computer Vision - heavy-hitter, could save around 300MB of RAM and 3-5 seconds of startup time.
• Input Simulation - light-weight in comparison, but, more importantly, by not loading input-related libraries, you make the app appear more legit to all external observers. This could be very important if you decide to distribute your pack not as an automation tool, but as computer-vision-based helper.

How to set this up?

Blacklist is a part of Pack configuration. By default, everything is shipped, but you can disable two types of modules/

KeyLogin

KeyLogin is a way to sign in using a one-time license key — no account creation required. This system is intended to be used along with Sublicenses to allow your users to access your cool Packs as quickly as humanly possible.

That is how the process looks right now

For end-user(the person who will be using the pack):

• purchase a key to your pack from a 3rd party website
• go to pack page, click on Download pack
• login via the key and start using the pack

That is it. I think this is as simple as it could get and we'll stay in that state for some time and see how it goes.

For you(author, who is creating the pack):

• you create something cool
• you export it and get URL (like this or this or other packs in Aura Library)
• add description, images, etc to the page
• add an aura which checks for the license - code is available for copy-paste
• enable Script Protection - this makes it much-much harder to counteract licensing mechanism
• contact me(Xab3r) in Discord and I generate keys for you
• you(user) distribute keys via FunPay or any other websites that allow to sell keys

Yeah... for authors the process is not as straightforward. I will streamline it this year.
