Macro/Automato
From A Wiki in the Desert
Automato is a LUA-based automation program which is useful for any automation task which primarily involves screen scraping and sending mouse clicks, with a special focus on automating video games. Automato was originally called Jimbly's VeggieTales, as it was initially developed for growing vegetables in A Tale in the Desert, but has grown to be used in other games as well. See the Installation page for more detailed installation instructions.
You can find out more information about this program, including the download files at http://www.dashingstrike.com/Automato/, and the source of the macros can be found at https://github.com/DashingStrike/Automato-ATITD
