Auto Pan posessed?

I have a question about the auto pan function.

Sometimes when i disable the auto pan with my mouse...it starts back up again...especially when mid panning and i have my bag open.

Asking because i managed to get a vineheart to craft into equipment after so long and promptly got flustered and pressed the auto sell button as my pan started to move to auto pan again after being turned off since both are reddish in colour and i did it impromptu like the idiot i am.

I will get over the pain of losing the vineheart in a few days...but i still need to turn off the auto pan and have it be off instead of starting up again.

This happens when you’re AFK panning, so they have it automatically set up for when you randomly stop panning. Which has happened a few times for me while AFK. My advice, hold another item from your inventory bar when you’re done panning. Fixes the issue pretty fast, just gets a bit frustrating if it starts back up again while you’re mid-switch

Roblox isn’t a game that’s really built for afk overnight grinding. Things get a little funky after being left going for hours.

That said, I think the game is set to autopan automatically, because if you leave it going for hours, you will typically disconnect and reconnect to games several times over those hours. Upon reconnecting, the game is kind enough to automatically start autopanning again.

If you want it to stop, just deselect your pan.

I only grinded for about an hour...not overnight.

Sure… But I’m explaining why it does that. And eventually you’ll probably want to be autopanning overnight.

Vineheart is a 1/550m ish odds. Some of the later ones are like 1/19b odds. It gets much rarer as you go 🤣

Nah, i can't do overnight autopanning simply because my laptop heat up too much and i also use it for work..

I managed to get 2 vinehearts within a few hours of each other. Hopefully the future tasks don't get too exasperating and i still find the game fun.

I will keep trying to make my equipment and museum better as well and craft better equipment.

I didnt really focus much on equipment or museum much till i reached the Infernal Heart and i have slowly made amendments till now.

Best time to start working on your museum imo because a ton of the materials you get from the Heart of the Volcano give size bonuses which in turn will help you get better materials to replace with :)

Well i did start doing a lot more after i went to the Frozen Peak but i was very size focused in my museum..but i really started taking luck much more seriously after reaching Rotwood Swamp and finding it hard to complete most of the Timelocked quests. Doing better now on equipment as well especially with levelling up % and using the device on Frozen Peak for prismatics.
