PowBot Desktop - Out of Beta

March has been a big month for PowBot Desktop.

Big thanks to everyone who tested the beta, pushed the client hard, and reported bugs. That feedback has been directly shaping the work we've shipped this month.

It's been a long six months since we first started on PowBot Desktop to get it to where we are today, we truly beleive we have the best foundations out of the native OSRS automation clients available to really take botting to the next step. Just because we've reached this milestone doesn't mean we're slowing down on development, we've got some big plans especially with AI to really transform OSRS botting.

Premium

As we're now out of beta we have enabled the premium plan for Desktop, which gives you unlimited desktop instances and the ability to run local scripts, it is available for just $4.99/month.

Users can still enjoy 2 desktop instances for free to try out the client however they won't be able to run any local scripts.

Walking Performance

We've made major improvements to our walking system this month, including up to 10x faster path calculation in some scenarios.

That means less time spent waiting on route computation, faster recovery when the environment changes, and better responsiveness overall when scripts need to move around the world.

As our walking implementation has been built from the ground up there may be missing navigation methods, please open tickets in discord to get these added.

KvStore API

We've added a new KvStore API for Desktop.

This lets scripts store and retrieve key/value data per RuneScape account, which is useful for remembering progress, account-specific state, task history, banking preferences, unlock status, and other persistent script data.

See the KvStore API spec.

Death Handling

The desktop client now includes improved death handling.

If your account dies, the client can now return and collect items from death automatically. This makes long-running scripts much more resilient and reduces the chance of a death turning into a total wipe of your session.

LocalTile API

We've added a LocalTile type to make local scene coordinate work much easier when building scripts and debugging client behavior.

This is especially useful when you're dealing with scene-relative positions, local movement, raw coordinate data, and any APIs that operate on local rather than world-space tiles.

See the LocalTile API docs.

Ground Item Ownership

Ground item ownership is now exposed, so scripts can determine which loot actually belongs to your account.

That means cleaner looting logic, fewer mistakes around contested drops, and better script behavior in crowded areas or multi-account setups.
