I need an example to revive/repair/return

[L4G]

Hi, first of all thanks for making a great bot like this.

Now, i want to ask you if you could post a full example script for when the bot dies it revive, go back to town, repair, maybe buy some potions/herbs and go back to fight.

Actually i can make the bot to revive and go back to fight sometimes, but i don't know how to tell it to count for example 2 hours and go back to town and repair, or die and go back to town and repair.

I have seen some little extracts of script code in the forum but not a full example of how and where to create/modify a script with this funcionality, i think it would be great if you can provide it.

Greetings !

The point is... why not to have all this information in just 1 post instead of a lot of posts where you have search a lot and to copy/paste small sections.

We would need someone, who writes that post.

to repair i made 2 files, yourmacropath.xml and yourrepairpath.xml
my macro path runs around a circle counting each mob, when it gets to 300 if runs the code below the counter, which i have set as calling the window to the foreground and keyboard presses of my recall button, it waits 20secs while the screen loads from recalling and then loads yourrepairpath.xml

yourmacropath.xml:

<waypoints>
<!-- # 1 --><waypoint x="" z="">
if( player.Fights-player.free_counter1 > 300 ) then <!--recall at 300 monsters-->
player.free_counter1 = player.Fights; <!--this code counts each mob-->
showWindow(getWin(), sw.show); <!--calls the window to foreground need for mouseclicks-->
player:rest(2);
keyboardPress(key.VK_7); <!--my recall button is in the position on spellbar #7-->
player:rest(20); <!--we wait while the screen loads from recalling-->
load_paths("yourrepairpath.xml"); <!--loads a repair path-->
end
</waypoint>
<!-- # 2 --><waypoint x="" z=""></waypoint> <!--macro path-->
<!-- # 3 --><waypoint x="" z=""></waypoint>
<!-- # 4 --><waypoint x="" z=""></waypoint>
<!-- # 5 --><waypoint x="" z=""></waypoint>
<!-- # 6 --><waypoint x="" z=""></waypoint>
<!-- # 7 --><waypoint x="" z=""></waypoint>
<!-- # 8 --><waypoint x="" z=""></waypoint>
<!-- # 9 --><waypoint x="" z=""></waypoint> <!--macro path-->
</waypoints>

obviously the recall has an 1 hr timer, so youll need to adjust how many mobs you kill before it tries to recall, or you can try this code to recall after a certain amount of time
replace:

Code: Select all

	if( player.Fights-player.free_counter1 > 300 ) then  <!--recall at 300 monsters-->
        player.free_counter1 = player.Fights;  <!--this code counts each mob-->

with:

Code: Select all

if( os.difftime(os.time(), player.BotStartTime) > 3660 ) then <!-- runs code after 1 hr 1min of macroing-->

if you do it by time, youll also need to add a timer reset in the code, i suggest right after teleporting, so it would liike like this:

Code: Select all

<!-- # 1 --><waypoint x="" z="">
	if( os.difftime(os.time(), player.BotStartTime) > 3660 ) then <!-- runs code after 1 hr 1min of macroing-->
	showWindow(getWin(), sw.show);  <!--calls the window to foreground need for mouseclicks-->
	player:rest(2); 
        keyboardPress(key.VK_7); <!--my recall button is in the position on spellbar #7-->
        player.BotStartTime = 0;    <!--RESTARTS TIMER-->
	player:rest(20);

if your nearest town doesnt have a teleporter you can run there instead of teleport
remove this from code:

Code: Select all

showWindow(getWin(), sw.show);  <!--calls the window to foreground need for mouseclicks-->
	player:rest(2); 
        keyboardPress(key.VK_7); <!--my recall button is in the position on spellbar #7-->
	player:rest(20);  <!--we wait while the screen loads from recalling-->

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

yourrepairpath.xml runs from teleporter to merchant, if you arent using a teleporter option, youll need to make waypoints from your macropath to the npc, instead of teleporter to npc

at the merchant i call the window to the foreground, needed for mouseclicks, you can download other addons that auto repair, but this works just aswell, youll need to adjust your mouseclicks to aim them at the right icons/chat options on screen, after it presses repair icon,

i have it set to buy potions too, this is tricky for now, we have it set to press a keyboard button (VK_6), which has an ingame macro, so youll need to go ingame and make a macro with this:

Code: Select all

/script StoreBuyItem(3, 99);

and place it in the correct keyslot, mines 6
this ingame macro will buy 99 items of whatever item is in position 3 on the merchant window, change these according to merchant, and how many items you want. if you need more pots than 99, just copy the keyboardpress code

Code: Select all

	
player:rest(.4);
keyboardPress(key.VK_6);

and duplicate it


after that mine runs back toward yourmacropath and then loads that macro

yourrepairpath.xml:

Code: Select all

<waypoints>
	<!-- # 1 --><waypoint x="" z="" type="RUN"></waypoint>    <!-- run from teleporter to merchant -->
	<!-- # 2 --><waypoint x="" z="" type="RUN"></waypoint>
	<!-- # 3 --><waypoint x="" z="" type="RUN"></waypoint>
	<!-- # 4 --><waypoint x="" z="" type="RUN">    <!-- make this waypoint aim at merchant -->
	showWindow(getWin(), sw.show);    <!-- calls window to foreground, needed for mouseclicks -->
	player:rest(2)
	player:target_NPC("YOUrNPCName");    <!-- this will open the chat dialog for merchant -->
	player:rest(1)
	player:mouseclickL(150, 220, 825, 582);   <!-- opens the shop window, youll have to run this and see where you clicks need to go -->
	player:rest(.4);   <!-- ^^ the 150 is left and right, left is low right is higher,  the 220 is up and down lower towards the top of screen-->
	player:mouseclickL(250, 380, 825, 582);   <!-- presses repair again you will need to adjust this, let the macro run once and see where it clicks--> 
	player:rest(.4);
        keyboardPress(key.VK_6);   <!-- this presses your spellbar button #6, in your slot 6 you need your buy macro-->

it isnt perfect yet, my macro runs through the first 300 mobs and recalls and repairs, but having watched it go over 600 monsters,

it tried to recalled, got a cooldown error because my recall had 15mins left, but the macro didnt know the cooldown wasnt up, and it waited 20seconds and ran across the map towards the teleporter

i think the easiest fix is make the recall a timed thing and have it set to over a hour so you dont get a cooldown error

i dont know if my post are in the right section, but here goes
i have some problem trying to set the bot to do this :
- check main hand durability on waypoint 1
- if durability is 0.4 then use recall button (mine set on = )
- and load the repair paths
- after the bot finishes repair and shopping load the return paths

This is what happen after i run the macro (i include the last 2 kills of the bot) :

Code: Select all

so i figured theres something wrong inside the player.lua file line 1114 ?
and heres what inside that file on line 1114 (i didnt change anything inside player.lua from the fresh download) :

here's my 3 xml filename :

The error means, something in the coding of your WP file is wrong. I suppose it is

Code: Select all

keyboardPress(key.VK_=);

because thats not a valid hotkey variable. That a look into the file '/micromacro/lib/mods/keyboard/en_us.lua' to find the valid variable for the key you want.

Instead of using the keypress, you could also use

Code: Select all

sendMacro(RoM API function);

and use the RoM API function 'Do_Teleport();' ??? to port (see here for a list of fuunctions..)

If you have dificulties to find the error in such a waypoint coding, it could also be helpful just to copy that coding into the normal player.lua just before the assertation to get a more excact error message from the lua interpreter (if you can handle a little lua code / editor).

And don't use

Code: Select all

player:rest(20);

for the loading screen waiting. Becaue that's not a real pause. The bot will still watch for aggro and could get memory reading errors. It is better to 'pause' the bot with

Code: Select all

yrest(20000);
