Cookie Clicker Auto Clicker Hacks
After adding cookies to one's bank or changing the number of cookies a click is worth, the next logical step in the Cookie Clicker journey is getting the game to do the cookie clicking for you.
Luckily there is a way to hack the game to accomplish such an endeavor.
Again, this cheat takes the player to the in-game console with yet another code. Inputting, "setInterval(function(){Game.ClickCookie()}," followed by a number and a closed bracket sets how often by increments of milliseconds the game will automatically click the cookie for itself.
If one were to want to have it click every three milliseconds, they would type "setInterval(function(){Game.ClickCookie()}, 3);" For every five milliseconds it would be "setInterval(function(){Game.ClickCookie()}, 5);". It is that simple!
Cookie Clicker is available now on the web and Steam.
