-Scotty allows you to automatically teleport through World Completion in Central Tyria, turning this epic journey into a fairly trivial task.+Scotty's Automatic Teleporting menu allows you to automatically teleport instead of moving in almost any bot mode!
  
-World Completion comes with some great perks and every player strives for it.

-https://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Map_completion#World_completion 
-  
-Instructions: 
- 
-  * Download the Map Completion Tasks from BOX.  https://app.box.com/s/9fhpdu4n8rcshyjfigs4fo8j057nqgwm 
-  * Unzip the .bttask files to the following folder.  C:\MINIONAPP\Bots\GW2Minion64\LuaMods\GW2Minion\TaskManagerProfiles 
-  * Restart the game client or Reload Lua from the MMOMinion menu. 
-  * From the Main Menu, choose Custom Tasks and then select the Map Completion profile.

-  * Click the Play button to start the profile. +  * Open Scotty's Automatic Teleporting menu. 
-  * Once the Map Completion Custom Task is running, Open the Custom Tasks section of Scotty.+  * Click the Automatic Teleporting button to start the profile.
  
-{{https://i.vgy.me/ZVUDqu.jpg}}+{{https://hosting.photobucket.com/images/jj613/Onwugru/Automatic_Teleporting_Menu.PNG}}
  
-  * Click the "Toggle Semi-automatic" button and you'll hear an Enabled sound, at which point Scotty will teleport you to the next custom task location at the interval specified.  (default 10 seconds) +NOTE: You may also do this for any other bot mode you can select from GW2Minion's bot-mode menu.
-  * Tick the box for Player Detection and configure a radius if you don't want Scotty to teleport you automatically while other players are nearby. +
-  * If the bot gets stuck on any given task, simply choose the next task from the Selected Task box in the Main Menu.  (not all of the Custom Tasks are perfect) +
-  * When the 1-40 Map Completion has finished, repeat these steps with the 40-80 Map Completion profile. +
- +
-<color #ed1c24>NOTE: I highly recommend using 10 seconds or more to prevent detection during map completion tasks. You can teleport as often and rapidly as you like outside of doing map completion or unlocking Vista/POI/WP's.</color>+

 ====== Teleporting Guidance ====== ====== Teleporting Guidance ======
  
-  * When doing MAP COMPLETION, I do not recommend teleporting faster than once every 10 seconds. Map completion counts as anything that would advance the map completion in the upper left-hand corner of the (M)ap screen towards 100%. I personally use 3 seconds on my test accounts, and suggest 10+ to keep YOU safe.+Overall, teleport as often and fast as you like. It's worth reading through these tips and caveats though. 
   * Do not complete achievements too quickly when loading a coordinate text file that explicitly says "DO NOT COMPLETE TOO FAST" in the file name. These often have public leaderboards and you don't want to get caught completing a race in an impossibly small amount of time.   * Do not complete achievements too quickly when loading a coordinate text file that explicitly says "DO NOT COMPLETE TOO FAST" in the file name. These often have public leaderboards and you don't want to get caught completing a race in an impossibly small amount of time.
-  * I do NOT recommend teleport-gathering on US/EU servers, but the option is there due to popular demand. If you insist on doing this, I suggest stopping after an hour or two max. Gathering too many crafting materials is the single riskiest thing you can do, whether or not you're teleporting. (Note that LS3/LS4 materials do not seem to be tracked. e.g. Winterberries)+  * Map Completion times used to be closely monitored, but this no longer appears to be the case. With that said, consider there is a risk associated with teleport gathering as they have the ability to monitor it server-side.

-  * Outside of the aforementioned caveats, teleport as fast and often as you want. Remember that players pop in and out of the game world all the time for various reasons, so you can always make an excuse in the very unlikely chance someone calls you out. Examples: "My previous map instance had too few people and I was forced to join this one. I just got back from PvP/WvW. I just reconnected. I used a Teleport to Friend device.
