Old School Botting Functions

Full tutorial on creating Functions for automation using Python for osrs botting. The example used will be woodcutting, where the script will use colour detection using opencv and use pyautogui to move the mouse, click and use the keyboard to drop items using an image recognition module that will detect the wood icons in the inventory.

Other python files will also use tesseract-OCR to detect text within images using tesseract-OCR image to text recognition functions.

This video is more about how it was created at the start core.py is how to make the python script focus on the old school runescape application and adjust the window size so all the scripts run as intended. Then functions.py is where all the different kinds of shortcut functions are placed to reference the mini map, or a piece of code to do color detection or open the inventory.
