Hi, no, I'm not planning to develop a solution without the dependency of autodocktools. The plugin is just a tool to use autodock and vina from within a pymol session. The Autodocktools are used for receptor and ligand preparation which is an essential part of a docking protocol, equally important to scoring functions and the docking algorithm itself. If a ligand is not correctly prepared (e.g., incorrect assignment of rotatable bonds, protonation state) you will never end ab with the correct result. Hence, this is a quite sophisticated functionality that cannot be replaced with a few lines of additional code and I'm therefore not putting any effort in this direction.
