Every existing run targets a boss and assumes endgame damage and (mostly)
teleport, so none of them are usable while levelling. run_level is closest but
hardcodes plain left-click attacks, which does nothing for a caster.
cold_plains takes the waypoint to a configurable Act 1 area, then loops:
scan with target_detect -> cast one configured skill at the nearest target ->
loot -> roam if nothing is visible. The bot's normal end_run TPs it home.
It sends its own hotkey rather than going through the build's _skill_hotkeys,
so it works with any build. A blizz_sorc profile can run it with Fire Bolt long
before Blizzard (clvl 24) exists, and re-binding to Fireball at clvl 12 is a
one-line config change.
Guards, so an unattended run cannot wedge:
- empty attack_hotkey fails in approach() with step "no_attack_hotkey" rather
than roaming for three minutes doing no damage
- max_runtime_s caps total battle time
- max_engagements caps casts per step, so an immune or misdetected target
cannot pin the run in one spot
Disabled by default: routes are built from [routes] order, and the new run is
not in it, so Config().routes.get() returns None and the entry is filtered out.
Opt in by adding run_cold_plains to the order.
PREREQUISITE, documented in params.ini: the destination waypoint must already be
discovered. A fresh character has none, so it needs one manual walk out first.
