Craft-a-lot helper mode is designed to allow the Craft-a-lot app users full functionality even on forge modded clients.
The Craft-a-lot app which runs on the Overwolf platform requires game events in order to achieve GPS functionality.
On "Vanilla" clients - the game events are acquired by the Overwolf platform, since the Overwolf events engine does not work with modded clients - we created this mod, its purpose is to acquire the game events missing (mostly player`s HP status and xyz location) and forward those events to the Overwolf app - for it to display the data to the user and give the user the same experience he would have received on an unmodded client.
The app uses these events in order to display a graphical "GPS" feature that leads the players to their marked locations around the game world.
this mod is not to be used as a standalone mod - it is part of the Craft-a-lot Overwolf app, it does not have any UI or effect without the Craft-a-lot app.
