New Facebook layout
Since Facebook decided to totally replace the old layout with the new one, all my scripts need some small changes. You can find the updated versions below:
Download PackRat Helper: version 1.1.1
Download MobWars Helper: version 1.0
[This version of the script is OBSOLETE. For more informations and new releases check the Mob Wars Helper category.]
Also available at UserScripts.org, where you find a short manual.
For more informations about the installation process please check the FAQ.
MUCH better!! Thank you!!!

I was about to donate to your cause as I know this can take a great deal of your time, but I refuse to do so if you are going to bend to the will of the devs. This would be like Google telling me I could only do one search an hour because their servers were loaded. The bigger problem is that more and more people are playing PR. How are they gonna handle that load? They need to figure this out without putting the burden on the user.
Being able to only buy one new item (especially when some recipes call for 3 of those like the Bridesmaids dresses), or only being able to gain a certain amount of credits, or a certain number of pop ups limits YOUR CUSTOMERS. I (as many others) can only get onto the system for about an hour a day. Doing some of these tasks while I sleep is very helpful. How is this any different than the many people that don’t have jobs (or have jobs that allow them to play PR) and are on PR 16 to 20 hours a day?
Also, can you fix the line 52/53 problem? I’ve tried the fix listed and it’s just not working.
Thanks for listening.

There seems to be an issue with the current database. I updated a few minutes ago and Tiki Island, Born to be Wild and Safari Kingdom sets are messed up. And when I went to stalk the markets, it immediately purchased a lock. I do have it set to get new sets and new cards, but I don’t think it’s ever supposed to purchase locks. I did not update to 1.1.1 I am still at 1.1 with the manual change I made to support the new URL.
Comment by Jim — 7/10/2008 @ 11:28 am
Jim: Thanks for the feedback. Actually since a couple of hours the database is generated automatically and the three collections you mentioned where not scanned correctly (due to the use of both item and Item templates in the Wiki. I hate case insensitivity) and Locks where ignored. It should work now.
Comment by Piotr P. Karwasz — 7/10/2008 @ 2:30 pm
Very cool use of the wiki.
Thanks again for an awesome script. Almost makes me want to go learn javascript
Comment by also a developer — 8/10/2008 @ 5:48 am
First of all i want to thank you so much for this script! This have helped me out so much!
I’ve been using this script since ”DAY 1”, and now my level is currently: 24, and I’ve only been playing for 5days..
That’s a average : 5Lvls per/day.
VOTE: 5/5
***Only thing that’s missing is: Anti-ban, when the question comes ”Are you a human?”.***
Currently been flagged as a bot 3-4 times and I’m starting to get nerves. Luckily for me I’ve been online every time this have happen.
Comment by KAKAKAKAKAKAKAKA — 9/10/2008 @ 5:37 pm
Can you update the script? I haven’t been able to use it for almost a week now due to the Line 53 error. I tried the fix on the Greasemonkey page, but it still doesn’t work. I’m hoping with a new version, it will once again work.
Thanks so much for your work on this.
Comment by SS — 9/10/2008 @ 6:29 pm
SS- the current release fixed that problem. All you need to do is update to the current version.
Comment by Jim — 10/10/2008 @ 9:14 am
How do I uninstall the script download? This thing is annoying.
Comment by Brad — 10/10/2008 @ 8:22 pm
Brad - How is it annoying? You use it when you are away from the computer. And if you are away, how can it annoy you? If you are playing PackRat in person, simply click the monkey head in the lower right corner of your browser to turn it off. Click it again to turn it on, it’s that simple.
Comment by Jim — 12/10/2008 @ 6:57 pm
is it only me or does it happen to everyone? there is no ‘ROR’ and ‘Turns’ shown in the ‘City’.
Comment by Dimitri — 15/10/2008 @ 12:10 pm
edit: the bug is gone now.
Comment by Dimitri — 15/10/2008 @ 8:23 pm
Every time I view my city, the page refreshes and I am directed to the jobs area. How do I stop it from directing like it does every 4 seconds.
Comment by chad — 18/10/2008 @ 9:27 am
You have to go to the job page so MWH sees it and choose one job to do. or you can cancel doing the job.
to the MWH: it would be cool to have an option for automatically buy something in the city. possible options maybe like this:
buy this:
-best ROR
-lowest price ONLY
-highest price ONLY
-buy ONLY this structure: [all possible structures here]
BTW, Packrat got new layout, PRAutoclicker doesnt work anymore
Comment by Dimitri — 18/10/2008 @ 7:32 pm
hello just a quick question you could add one for Dragon Wars
if you wouldnt mind 
do you take requests ne how please hit me back on anthony3003@googlemail.com
Comment by Anthony3001 — 19/10/2008 @ 12:06 am
SS: Google allows unlimited traffic from human users, but if you want to use their API (for automated scripting) you are allowed only a limited number of requests every day. The same applies to PackRat.
Since at the moment I made the adjustments PackRat didn’t make money in any way (the ads you have seen were actually Facebook ads and Facebook was paid for them), it’s reasonable that they want to spare their servers from unwanted traffic. They didn’t want normal players experiencing problems just because someone chose to run a script. Besides scripting is not allowed under the Facebook Terms of Use.
KAKAKAKA…: The script stops when it detects a captcha (in Mob Wars). At least it works for me.
Brad: Do you mean how to uninstall the script? You can disable it by right clicking on the monkeys face or uninstall it from Tools > GreaseMonkey > Manage scripts
chad: I didn’t have time to look into it. However if you visit your Stockpile, Bank and City the bug disappears.
Dimitri: Added to TODO list (which however grows larger and larger since I lack the time to dedicate to the script). PackRat Autoclicker needs updating, but I can’t do it right now. Maybe in a week or so.
Anthony3001: I can help you adapt the Mob Wars script if you want. I am not planning to release new scripts in the near future.
Comment by Piotr P. Karwasz — 19/10/2008 @ 10:40 pm
Piotr P. Karwasz: Thanks for answer! I’m now currently on level 50, and have been playing for total 15 days.
I’ve been using the MBH (Mob wars helper), 10/15 days. I’ve stopped using it, because now i get around 5-10 mill/per hour income.
I also try’d the hitlist script from userscript.org. And after 10-15min of using the program i got a total 3-4 bounty kills and total 1,000,000,000 cash!! That’s sick!!!
Thanks once again for making this hack! I recommend this hack to everyone! Specially noobies (Beginners 1-40lvl)
Comment by KAKAKAKAKAKAKAKA — 20/10/2008 @ 2:40 pm
They made a game update, which seems to have broken the jobs with a prereq (liquer smuggling), everything else works fine but whatever update they did blocks the script from the inventory.
Comment by Tim — 19/11/2008 @ 12:17 am
Broke all job requirements
error in module inventory on line 788
Thanks bud
Comment by Varsis — 19/11/2008 @ 12:30 am
Could you please add support for the new weapons (add support for adding the attack/defense points of the new weapons, maybe a probability calculator based on the drop items, etc.) and like previously stated the job requirements. it’s been giving me train schedules all day
Comment by Bob Joe — 19/11/2008 @ 1:45 am
How can I edit your script I would like to see if I can fix the bug. It is really anoying I came back to my game and have 9 safe houses and haven’t done even one drug smuggling by air in days.
Comment by Bryan — 19/11/2008 @ 2:50 am
Error in module ‘jobs’ on line 1254: itemlist[item] is undefined
This is what i keep reading in mobwars helper. I really love your scripts.
Comment by Victor — 19/11/2008 @ 6:22 am
I also have the “Error in module ‘inventory’ on line 788: result is null” error. I’ve got 13 Safe Houses and it just keeps trying to add more.
Comment by Mike — 19/11/2008 @ 6:34 am
Error in module ‘jobs’ on line 1253: itemlist[item] has no properties

Comment by Johnny — 19/11/2008 @ 8:10 am
I also get the error on the script:
Error in module ‘jobs’ on line 1253: itemlist[item] has no properties
only does drug smuggling by air, will not obtain safe house.
I used the script with greate success for very a very long time.
Comment by Dolf — 19/11/2008 @ 2:34 pm
I also get the following error:
Error in module “inventory” on line 787: result hos no properties
Comment by Dolf — 19/11/2008 @ 2:38 pm
mob wars helper script does not work any more when it cums 2 automaticly doing the jobs in mob wars…. since the new jobs and weapons and prep jobs came out…. oher wise the scripted rockss….well rocked
Comment by m — 19/11/2008 @ 7:36 pm
I’m also having errors with the MobWars Helper script. I just downloaded it, and it works with several jobs, but it errors. I’m fairly sure it is because MobWars updated. I would greatly appreciate the fix.
Comment by Chris — 20/11/2008 @ 6:33 am
yay they finally did it…. quick fix but no errors
http://userscripts.org/topics/18023
Comment by m — 20/11/2008 @ 7:22 am
I am having problems with the Mob Wars Helper Script. It stopped doing the job I had selected. Instead I ended up with 11 train schedules. So I reinstalled it and now I am getting the following error message:Error in module ‘jobs’ on line 1254: itemlist[item] is undefined
I think I read somewhere that there is a temporary fix to this issue. If so, can you please explain to me or provide me with this fix? FYI…I am a rookie to scripts so please give me as many details as you can.
Comment by Jeanette — 20/11/2008 @ 8:21 am
I’m hoping there will be an update soon, but my new strategy is to do the Drug Smuggling by Sea and collect the Tactical Shotguns. I’ve already managed to get 4 of them. Hopefully by the time I get 10, the script will be fixed and I’ll be able to start doing the Illegal Weapons Smuggling.
Currently, Drug Dealing is the best Exp to Energy ratio(15:10), but the Illegal Weapons is better (85:55), not to mention the extra $15 mil an hour the mission should net.
Comment by Jason — 21/11/2008 @ 5:21 am
ok. the solutions by people on the userscriots do not work as they should.
even if you start to do the drug smuggling job, you must have enough illegal weapon caches in your stockpile. so the remade script just does this job only. anyways: Piotr, when you would have some minutes of spare time to take a look at it, it would be great!
thanks in advance.
Comment by Dimitri — 25/11/2008 @ 6:23 pm
I’m getting this error:
Error in module ‘jobs’ on line 1253: itemlist[item] has no properties
Comment by Shane — 3/12/2008 @ 3:36 am
About the update: I almost finished an update, I just need a couple of spare minutes to post it, but I am full with work for now.
Comment by Piotr P. Karwasz — 5/12/2008 @ 2:51 pm
Will the script work with the non-english mobwars?
Comment by Leo — 5/12/2008 @ 4:33 pm
Hi Piotr,
Do you think the fix for MWH will be out tonight?
Comment by Steve — 6/12/2008 @ 4:01 am
Hey thx for making this script! I didn’t realize how much I needed it til it didn’t work
I do REALLY like the idea of auto buying property. if it’s possible to do buying based on ROR, make sure it doesn’t count the undeveloped land, so buying the larger properties doesn’t get too expensive. if that’s not possible you could show a couple more digits of the ROR? I have enough properties that everything is the same ROR most of the time. either way, I’m going through withdrawals without the basic job functionality though. would be nice to get some more of those AK-47 nade launchers 
Thanks for the script again!
Comment by sm00th101 — 8/12/2008 @ 8:10 am
Hi there,
Many thanks for this automated scripts it a big help and make the playing experience much more enjoyable.
I’m also experiencing the same problem with the script not being able to process the newly added Job “Illegal Weapons Smuggling” that needs to “Aquire one Illegal Weapons Cache” with 10 Tactical Shotguns.
Script error indicate the following in the job module:
Error in module ‘jobs’ on line 1254: itemlist[item] is undefined
I which I new how to do scripting than I could amend the changes and upload for all but need some direction and I will help and assist where I can
Again many thanks for this contribution thus far
Kind Regards,
Ben
Comment by Ben — 8/12/2008 @ 10:08 pm
woot, so it means that in a soon future we will get a new mob wars helper? t_t
thank you, Piotr!!!
Comment by Dimitri — 12/12/2008 @ 1:16 am
Any update on this? I’m dying for an update here. Even a temp patch?
Comment by Zimmy — 16/12/2008 @ 12:26 pm
I keep getting this error “Error in module ‘inventory’ on line 788: result is null” it keeps “Acquire Train Schedule ” i have it set for best experience/energy…
Comment by Pat — 19/12/2008 @ 8:40 pm
I keep getting “Error in module ‘inventory’ on line 787: result has no properties”
and on the Stockpile page, I get:
Best attack upgrade: 64 Wesson PPCs at 0$/point
Best defense upgrade: 64 Wesson PPCs at 0$/point
Best attack/defense upgrade: 64 Wesson PPCs at 0$/point)
Huh? The best buy would be something that I typically can’t buy?
