This program is ZeroSignal's Shaiya Bot (ZS Shaiya Bot).

FEATURES:
* Lots of them


IMPORTANT:

* Since this is covered under GPL, you can distribute this software, however
please realise that this software has the potential to be abused therefore
I recommend to only give a copy to those who are responsible and who have
contributed something to the Shaiya hacker community.

* There are allot of Easter Eggs in the code, so it pays to learn lua.
<http://lua-users.org/wiki/LuaTutorial>
Then you will be able to modify the code, or hopefully add to the codebase.

* This program is intended for educational purposes only.


REQUIRED SOFTWARE:
MicroMacro.
Shaiya GameGuard Bypass.


SETUP:
1. Open ".\data\config.xml", set the install_path to your Shaiya installed direcory.
2. Open ".\char\My_Avatar.xml", Select All, then copy the data into a new file.
Save the file, in the same folder, and as your avatar name.
3. This is now your avatar file, read through the comments carefully so you can
modify the file, to suit your needs.


RUNNING SCRIPT:
1. Start Shaiya.
Note - Do not move any GUI bars, if you do, the script may not work,
and you will need to close Shaiya down, and restart.
2. Select Character and enter the world.

Apologies on the the release 0-02b, it had a few bugs, which I didn't test properly, this release 0-021b should work ok.

See original post.

This bot is still no good. To many problems with the script. Once i fix one problem with the filename a new one pops up. The frist problem off the bat is the class.lua is miss named in lib folder. Its class.lua_

after that the problems keep coming and coming

In main.lua
remove line 21:

Part of the problem is the changes to include(). The newest version will automatically try to include from the current working path, so there's no need for 'g_script_dir'. include("lib/utils.lua") should work just fine.

As a quick work around, this also works: Now, another problem is this: data/waypoints.lua does not exist. data/waypoint.xml does.

I commented it out temporarily, and it appears to run. I can only assume that this version does not yet contain XML reading support, so I won't be able to test the actual waypoint setup yet. Works great otherwise. Nice work so far. If there's anything else I can do to help, let me know.

I've migrated a few data based things over to XML, Waypoints, Skill, most Character Data (except the Avatar_class overidden functions), and some global values.

One question I do have is there a way I can place Lua in XML, and have it read a load the XML, so I can have all Character data in the one file, rather than having two separate character files, one for the Lua, and the other for the XML?

There is still allot of testing and fixes that need to be done, and I'm gonna have to put this on the backburner for a few weeks while I get my end-of-year tertiary exams out of the way.

It is for the best to separate data from code as much as possible. What are you having problems with, exactly?

The only way I can see you storing bits of Lua code into the XML file would be to store it as a string value and possibly use Lua's loadstring() function to parse and execute it. There could, however, be problems parsing that string out of the XML file; especially if the '<' and '>' characters are used.

the Avatar_class functions need to be polymorphed, with user created functions. I only briefly looked at it but I think loadString() should work, thanks.

edit: ahh yeah xml special characters, hmm maybe the lua is better left in the separate file, when I get the new version out perhaps u can take a look at it, and offer some suggestions.

Maybe i did something wrong.
After i run it, i modify the lines that u posted here before i read, just using common sense, and then i read it.

But, my problem is that my char dosnt attack by itself. Perhaps im doing something wrong, maybe shorcuts or something.

Do u have any idea?

PD: this is a masterful piece of code, amazing really.

I've just released a new version 0-03b that uses XML for most of the data. The benefits are that character scripts are much easier to understand.
See Top.

edit:
Here is the link for the ZS Waypoint Editor for those who want to edit the waypoint.xml file.

I just put up a full release of the latest copy of 0.98, which includes a few improvements to the library and the XML module. If you can't get the XML stuff to work for you, just download the latest version of MicroMacro off the download page.

byhoratiss: Did you edit char/<mycharacter>.lua and set key_attack to the hotkey that you put attack into? I typically place it into slot 1, or key.VK_1.

thanks elverion.

How's it going for everyone, any issues they have come across?

Most of the skills in './data/skills.xml' need adding, and a bit of fixing. Here is my latest: For my next release I am experimenting with Finite State Machines, so functions like flee, and other functions that are time imperative, will be able to be called, without causing threading issues, or bloated code.

I use the move_to, and functions that function depends on, but in a different script. I noticed moving from your old version to the new version where you correct the angle every so often, sometimes it will seem to get stuck in an infinite loop that will freeze up the game until I stop the script. I've had this happen in about 3 times in 6 hours of botting using the new functions, but with the old versions of the functions it never happened in 12+ hours.

I will check into this more since it's in my script, but possibly something you can watch out for too I guess.

Thanks for the heads up, I'll have to modify and fix it up.

I'm getting this when I try to run it. After the setup, ofcourse.

Which I find odd because the avatar_class.lua is obviously there...

I'm pretty sure it's due to the pathing issue noted here. Zero, have you updated your lib lately (since changes to include())?

I was using 0.98 during testing, the Deprecated line was active, though the new line has been added, for compatibility to 0.99 it's just a matter of commenting the old line, and un-commenting the new:

In main.lua, line 19 & 20.

Then I get this.

A cheap fix would be to open up main.lua, and add this near the top: That should do the trick.
