Add autoclicker functionality

You can easily start and stop autoclicking functionality using setInterval and Game.clickCookie(). If you could put this on a button in the UI it would be very helpful, especially since the current meta requires autoclicking. I don’t consider this to be cheating since you could download a program to simulate fast mouse clicks anyways.

I’ve written some code to encapsulate the autoclicking functionality:

function Autoclicker () {

    var clicking = false;
    var autoClicker = null;

    // shouldClick (optional) - boolean value representing whether to click or not.
    // if not included will toggle current status.
    this.toggleClicking = function(shouldClick) {
        clicking = shouldClick != null ? shouldClick : !clicking;

        if (clicking) {
            // the previous interval may still be going, so clear it just in case
            if (autoClicker) {
                clearInterval(autoClicker);
            }
            autoClicker = setInterval(Game.ClickCookie, 0);
        }
        else {
            clearInterval(autoClicker);
        }
    };
};

Usage example:

var clicker = new Autoclicker();
clicker.toggleClicking();

So far CookieMonster is mostly informational. I think the only real game interaction it has is popping wrinklers and even that requires a direct user action and can hardly be used to cheat. Allowing the game to do actions on its own is not really what CookieMonster is about in my opinion. So I vote against this.

Sorry, I’ve decided to not add this functionality to Cookie Monster.
