Cant choose campaign?

[fearek]

The program seems to choose a random campaign on its own and I cant overwrite it
World of Tanks has many campaigns running right now and all I want is Festive Tokens but it jumps to streamer skins even though it could farm Festive Tokens

Hello,

The miner works on the game-selection basis, that is, you select the game to be mined - not the campaign. The campaign for each game is selected automatically, based on the presence of the ACL in the form of a list of channels that are allowed to progress a campaign. Campaigns with an ACL are prioritized over campaigns without one (where any channel can progress it). This lets you obtain the harder-to-get drops first, before focusing on the drops which can use any channel to progress. As the ACL limits the pool of channels a campaign can be progressed.

Game-selection was chosen for the simple reason of main interest and non-changeability: the user is interested in content for the particular game of their choice, so that's what they choose with. Also, their "games of interest" list mostly does not change once already set, unlike campaigns which constantly change over time. Managing a list of "campaigns of interest" would quickly become cumbersome.

Regardless, changing the system to work on a campaign-selection basis would require a substantial rewrite of the miner's internals, which is a topic for #220. The simplest solution for the current system would be to expose the "mineability" flag to the user via the GUI interface, to let you disable mining of the drops of choice. This has already been proposed in #170, with the only difference being able to mark whole campaigns instead of individual drops.

Does this answer your question?
