Script to do a waypoint if the EOJ timer doesn't show?

[Hidden]

Thanks Rock that removed the error but..

Now it waits till event starts, completes quest, accepts quest and then stands there. Event timer is showing. (Event timer just disappeared and it still waiting there.)

Is there some way of implementing the PEFvisable into the wait for event start function? eg if timer not visible = start script?

Code: Select all

repeat
    yrest(5000)
until PEFisVisible()

I noticed that I haven't put that anywhere not really sure where to put it. and i corrected a homebase tag to start as it should have been.

add this to your onload

Code: Select all

 if (ScorePE == nil) then
         printf("Score is nil, oh no!")
         __WPL:setWaypointIndex(__WPL:findWaypointTag("ADD YOUR WAYPOINT TAG")); 
         return
      end
 

so it should look like this

Code: Select all

function waitForEventStart()
   	repeat
      yrest(1000) -- check every second
      local namePE,messagePE,namePH,ScorePE,Count , IsScoreVisible= RoMScript("PE_GetInfo(1)")
      if (ScorePE == nil) then
         printf("Score is nil, oh no!")
         __WPL:setWaypointIndex(__WPL:findWaypointTag("timer")); 
         return
      end
      if Count == 2 and YourTargetScore > ScorePE then break end
      until false
	end

so if the timer disappers it will go to the place you want i made a waypoint with the tag timer and have it run to a spot where the timer will show then come back to the event loop and wait

Thanks Abron,

Will have to settle for getting it to run a second wp and just loop the event. Might just make it run to one further down the road when the timer disappears.

hy guys!

first of all i would like to thank rock and lisa for their work and greetings from germany

i have a problem with the visible eoj timer and i would like to ask you for your help!

the problem is:
i do the event quest onetime.. then the bot goes to the spot where the timer is visible and returns.. do the event
quest onetime and returns..
what i want is:
stand at wp #1 wait for event stand there at event.. do event at #1 till event is over and only move
to timer visible wp´s when timer disappears
can you please have a look at my xml?
thanks

that the end of your script when you loop back you have to put

Code: Select all

  if (isEventFinished()) then
     __WPL:setWaypointIndex(__WPL:findWaypointTag("Home Base"));

then at home base you should have the wait for event to start function

[lisa]

I don't have the dissappearing event score issue but you can always try the function I posted which gets the values from memory.

[crazzy]

thanks for your fast answer..!

i´ll try it later after work ~ bb

btw:
i´ll think i have to put a "end" after that one?! ->

if (isEventFinished()) then
__WPL:setWaypointIndex(__WPL:findWaypointTag("Home Base"));

[crazzy]

hy guys..!
i´d tried it but it doesn´t work

what the bot still does is:
do the event quest onetime(!) - start wp´s #2-#7 - do the event q onetime - ...

what i need is:
do the event quest till score is reached or event is over - wait till next event starts - AND if event NOT
visible -> start wp´s #2-#7 to get timer visible

*need help!*

thanks for your work..!
i really appr. it!!

thanks frank

[lisa]

maybe look at my file here as an example.

[crazzy]

hy lisa
i know your file.. i use it for my dq!
for the event i want to do the arrowhead q but still got problems with the visibility of the timer
maybe you can have a look at it.. wp # 2 - #7 are only for getting the timer back.. the char should
stay there at # 1 and wait and do event quest!
BUT he does the event q only once.. then do the wp 2-7 do the q once and again
i think i should have something like:
"do till event finished the quest"
*help!*
i´ll post my xml

hi was working on the same problem, and the first thing i would like to recommend is to read out the time till event starts and then use a yrest till this point. Here is how i do it:

Code: Select all

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<waypoints>
<onload>
function doevent()
   local read1
   read1 = memoryReadRepeat("intptr",getProc(), addresses.staticTablePtr - 0x40 ,{0x3CC,0x4B8,0x230,0x94,0x90})
   if not read1 then --32bit code didn't work, try 64bit.
      read1 =  memoryReadRepeat("intptr",getProc(), addresses.staticTablePtr - 0x40 ,{0x338,0x38,0x230,0x94,0x90})
   end
   return read1;	
end

function doquest()
    local Counter = doevent()
    if Counter > 6000 then
	yrest(Counter)
	inventory:useItem("Arrowhead Carved with Name")
	RoMScript("AcceptBorderQuest()")
	RoMScript("ScriptBorder:Hide()")
	player:target_NPC("Myan Kellas")
	CompleteQuestByName("Last Luck","public")
    else
	inventory:useItem("Arrowhead Carved with Name")
	RoMScript("AcceptBorderQuest()")
        RoMScript("ScriptBorder:Hide()")
	player:target_NPC("Myan Kellas")
	CompleteQuestByName("Last Luck","public")
    end
end
	
</onload>
	<!-- #  1 --><waypoint x="-2699" z="-17935" y="810">
	 doquest()	
	</waypoint>
</waypoints>

but the problem nearly all here are revering too is when the timer disappears doevent() will be nil and as comparing nil to an int you will get an error.
So the doevent function or eventscore only works as long the timer is shown, although you if you read it out with the function lisa coded so there are 3 opportunities here:
1. find out how to ask the server after the timer
2. check if doevent returns nil and wait/search for the timer
3. as the event starts every 20min. Buildng function that checks if current time is == 00:11 or 00:31 or 00:51 or 01:11 or 01:31 and so on.

And one more thing would be interesting to find out. The event in Chrysalia is not only on 1 channel its also on the outher 2 so if we could read out the timer without it being shown, we would be able to do event on the other channels as well and im locking for a function to change channel

sry for my bad english and hoping to work that out with you guys

[crazzy]

and hoping to work that out with you guys

i really hope that some of the pro´s like lisa or rock5 will have a look at that problem..

i think there must be a solution to fix it..!

some way to read out that timer.. mmh ~ my skills end right here(!)

btw ~ on our server the event is only on ch 1

bb

[haringpb]

Well if you want a solution you could check timer every x secounds and if doevent() = nil then loadpaths("searchtimer")
With a Searchtimer waypoint witch has loadpaths("publicevent").
But this doesnt solve the problem with the timer not being shown on the outher server and even more, that you cant see the score there. If you could read this out it would be great.

[crazzy]

Sounds interesting to me..
Did you have some kind of code for that..?!
My skills end here^^
Or maybe Lisa will have a look at the code..

Bye Bye

[lisa]

If the code I posted that reads it directly from memory doesn't work while the event is "missing" then you will just have to resort to

3. as the event starts every 20min. Buildng function that checks if current time is == 00:11 or 00:31 or 00:51 or 01:11 or 01:31 and so on.

and have no way of knowing what score you have or whether the event is over.

There is already code posted somewhere to tell what time it is.

[crazzy]

hy..!

tried the other methods already.. but.. and i think there are many more.. it doesn´t work.
regardly to the 3. method - reading the time - i can´t find any code in the forum.. i searched every
single post here..
*help*

bb

[lisa]

i can´t find any code in the forum.. i searched everysingle post here..

http://www.solarstrike.net/phpBB3/viewt ... ate#p45025

I would say there are more than enough examples on the forum

[crazzy]

Hyhy!

I think it could be a solution.. But I am not able to write that function
With os.time and so on..! Because my prgramming skills end right
There
MAybe Lisa will have a short look at it I really hope so

[haringpb]

Hi seems since the last patch the function

Code: Select all

function doevent()
   local read1
   read1 = memoryReadRepeat("intptr",getProc(), addresses.staticTablePtr - 0x40 ,{0x3CC,0x4B8,0x230,0x94,0x90})
   if not read1 then --32bit code didn't work, try 64bit.
      read1 =  memoryReadRepeat("intptr",getProc(), addresses.staticTablePtr - 0x40 ,{0x338,0x38,0x230,0x94,0x90})
   end
   return read1;   
end

doesn´t work anymore can we get an update or could anybody explain how i could update it?
