Barrelstopper Gunning Bot

Our gunning bot is designed to help on sea monster hunts and pillages, with advanced human-like mouse movement. It’s optimised to run efficiently even on low-resource systems such as virtual machines. It’s fully AFK, will restation, and automatically detects when the puzzle is in a broken state.

Its main purpose is to fill cannons, not to achieve ultimate stats. It can swap the gunning pieces for coloured images, which helps it detect pieces at speed.

How do I use this bot?

The bot only searches the centre of the screen for the station, so stand at the station with it roughly in the centre of your screen.
Set the speed on the gunning puzzle to max.
Set the custom/standard option to standard, unless you’re using custom images, in which case set it to custom. Custom images are more accurate, because there’s less processing per screenshot so the bot can take more of them.
Leave the lag offset (default 15) and open window (default 20) settings alone. If you have a fast PC and the bot places pieces too early, you can slightly reduce the lag offset to find the sweet spot. The bot is very timing-sensitive and no setting works for every PC. If you’re not sure, contact us on Discord and we’ll set it up for you.
It’s usable on a pillage, but it sustains around a Respected ranking.
The bot automatically dismisses the puzzle if it hasn’t detected a piece placement within a set time. This isn’t a bug.
The same 100% size of text and apps and 1080p Windows settings apply. You may be able to use a bigger game window.
If you get an error replacing the image files, your game client is probably not installed in the default location (or you’re using Steam). The images are in the bot folder, and you can replace them by hand.
The max guns setting stops the bot jumping on and off station when the guns are full.

Common Questions

The bot doesn't work. What should I do?

Like most Puzzle Pirates bots, ours need specific settings to work. The game client must be sized at 800x600, and Windows' size of text and apps must be set to 100%. These are the most common reasons a bot doesn't work. If you still have trouble, contact us on Discord.

How accurate is the rank?

Ranks are our own estimates. Puzzle Pirates ranks players on a curve, so as more players achieve higher scores, everyone's ranking is pushed down.

Will I get banned for using this bot?

We understand that account security is a top concern, but we can't make any guarantees. Being caught using a bot isn't always the only reason for a ban, as other factors can come into play. Our bots are designed to go undetected within certain parameters, and those vary with the performance of the computer running the bot. It's your responsibility to monitor your bots and adjust the mouse speed so it isn't moving too slowly or too quickly. We provide a guide on what an undetected mouse speed looks like, but the right setting varies from machine to machine. Setting your bot to lightning speed may look cool and get you a high ranking, but your account is unlikely to last very long.

Can I share the bot with a friend?

No. We have a strict policy against sharing accounts, and we collect usage data on our servers to detect it. Anyone found sharing their account will be permanently banned from subscribing and may forfeit any remaining subscription time.

My antivirus flags the bot. Is it safe?

Our code is secured and obfuscated, which makes it hard for antivirus programs to understand what it does, so they may flag it as suspicious. The bots never collect your Puzzle Pirates username or password. We do collect bot usage statistics and window metrics to optimise the bots; our Privacy Policy lists everything we store.
