hey there everyone, im currently making something similar to tornw3b, but i want it to be api-free

 

essentially, im using my own api keys to pull bazaars from ids and check and stuff, but its getting really hard to find whos active and who isn, whos got a baz, whos a 1d play newb, etc

 

so i was wondering whether theres a way to see those 70k or so active people we got, and select from their ids and filter

 

alternatively, maybe grab ids from bazaar directory, but thats way out of my depth

 

so, anyone have any ideas/suggestions?

 

tl:dr i wanna pull bazaar stats from ids, but theres too many, so i need a list of active players

if there isnt a way to find all actives, i might ask yall for public api keys, and use a bunch of those alternating so as to not pass the 100 rpm limit, and do it one by one, but at 4m ids thats gonna take a shit ton of time and i dont wanna :)

Public keys only have access to public info, all public keys can access same info 

 

I can get the exact same information from my key than from someone else’s, but if I can run 10 keys at once I might only do 30 rpm instead of the 100 single key, and run way faster too

I'm aware what access a public key has.

 

The point being if you're using other peoples keys and create a loop it could temporarily block them from torn or interupt their other services that rely on API calls so back to my point I doubt many people will be giving them out just so you can scan for active players since it provides no benefit to them.
