Bot automatically disconnects

So i have some code that fills in the whole map with 1 block like this:
http://prntscr.com/bdazqa

But i ran to a problem: after executing the for loops at around 7000-7500 times on a 200x200 world, the bot simply just stops working, it also disappears from the minimap. Also i can't connect him back unless i exit the .exe file and reopen it. Same goes for compiling the codes.

Does anyone have any idea what is causing this problem? And a solution if possible would be very welcomed too.

Re: Bot automatically disconnects

After the bot disconnects, put a breakpoint somewhere in the loop and see if it actually breaks there.

Just start another thread or use timers.

interesting. ironic, even. How much experience do you have with bots again?
I mean, the community didn't know the problem, but you've just about got this figured out.

oh well. gg /thread

jk, jab's right. threads are easier, but timers are apparently better. there was a discussion here a while ago

One bot to rule them all, one bot to find them. One bot to bring them all... and with this cliché blind them.
