Beep when whispered

[zephir]

Hello,
I would like that when i'm whispered, my pc beeps.
I would like the code, to work a bit like the 'gmMonitor' http://www.solarstrike.net/phpBB3/viewt ... =detection
A code that when detects whispers, run this code:

Code: Select all

printf("\a\a\a");

Hope you can help me Thanks and regards.

if onload have

Code: Select all

<onload>
	EventMonitorStart("Whispers", "CHAT_MSG_WHISPER");
	registerTimer("beepwhispers", secondsToTimer(5), beepwhispers);
	local function beepwhispers()
		repeat
		local time, moreToCome, name, msg = EventMonitorCheck("Whispers", "4,1")
			if time ~= nil then
			printf("\a\a\a");
			end
		until moreToCome == false
	end
</onload>

Something like that will probably do the trick.

Thank you for you quick reply.
but It now appears the following error:

Code: Select all

scripts\rom\bot.lua:436: onLoad error: [string "..."]:5 Error: Non-function type passed to registerTimer() where a funtion is expected.

[lisa]

Try this, it is probably because I had the function after the timer, so MM hadn't read the code for the function yet.

Code: Select all

<onload>
   function beepwhispers()
      repeat
      local time, moreToCome, name, msg = EventMonitorCheck("Whispers", "4,1")
         if time ~= nil then
         printf("\a\a\a");
         end
      until moreToCome == false
   end
   EventMonitorStart("Whispers", "CHAT_MSG_WHISPER");
   registerTimer("beepwhispers", secondsToTimer(5), beepwhispers);
</onload>

Now it beeps when whispered like it should
the problem is that 'RB Command' macro starts being pressed like crazy
and it stops executting the code, stopping at some point
and I cant even press END to pause it

probably something in the 'repeat'

[lisa]

I guess it depends how often u get whispered, if it is lots then could probably add in a time check so it only beeps at you once for messages every 30 secs or something, can be tricky to get timing working nicely though.

It will stay in the loop beeping for aslong as you get whispers, if you get 5 then it will beep 3 times for each whisper for total of 15 times, then it will go back to the macro usage every 5 seconds.
Assuming nothing else is going on. Are you getting bot to run anything else?

[zephir]

the only code I'm using is:

Code: Select all

	<onLoad>
		function beepwhispers()
		repeat
			local time, moreToCome, name, msg = EventMonitorCheck("Whispers", "4,1")
			if time ~= nil then
				printf("\a\a\a");
			end
			until moreToCome == false
		end
		EventMonitorStart("Whispers", "CHAT_MSG_WHISPER");
		registerTimer("beepwhispers", secondsToTimer(5), beepwhispers);
	</onLoad>

	<onLeaveCombat>	
	</onLeaveCombat>
	
	<onDeath>
		RoMScript("BrithRevive();");
		waitForLoadingScreen()
		yrest(settings.profile.options.WAIT_TIME_AFTER_RES);
		player:update();
		player:rest(1);
 		printf("\a\a\a");
		error("You died", 0);
	</onDeath>

	<onLevelup>
	</onLevelup>

	<onSkillCast>
	</onSkillCast>

	<onHarvest>
	</onHarvest>

	<!-- Lua code to execute when MAX_UNSTICK_TRIALS is reached. -->
	<onUnstickFailure>
		player:logout(nil,true);
	</onUnstickFailure>

and something strange happens:
I press DEL and activates code
it walks 5 waypoints, but then it stops the code (the macromicro stops code excution, and I can't press DEL or END)
and I happened to press the party button, and the chat opened and it typed '0' and closed the chat and walked to the next waypoint

sounds like an issue with the WP or possibly an addon.

Hi there,
great bot - great board. I´m a totaly newbie - at least i have coded other script-languages.
I tried diffrent things with the bot - all works fine - but the whisper-beep-script will not run.

Would be nice, if you can give me a tip - where do I have to fill in the code-snippet?
I tried out profile and scripts - in all cases it stops the waypoint-script from running....

Hope you can help me

[rock5]

Why don't you show us your code so we can see if there is something wrong with it? So there was no error message?

[spawni]

wow - fast reply

unfortunately no error msg. What i have tried first was a simple copy n paste thing with your Rock5's Millers Ranch Chickens run and the beep-code snippet

Try and errors:
1. code-snippet in profile-xml - onload-section- result: chicken run won´t work - no error message
2. code-snippet in your eggs-script - result: chicken run won´t work - no error message

In your script i put the snippet in one try on top of onload-section in another try at the end fo the script.

Used code:
<onLoad><![CDATA[
-- edit by spawni 27.09 beep by whisper ----
function beepwhispers()
repeat
local time, moreToCome, name, msg = EventMonitorCheck("Whispers", "4,1")
if time ~= nil then
printf("\a\a\a");
end
until moreToCome == false
end
EventMonitorStart("Whispers", "CHAT_MSG_WHISPER");
registerTimer("beepwhispers", secondsToTimer(5), beepwhispers)
]]></onLoad>

Ok I think I got it.

'moreToCome' only returns true or false if EventMonitorCheck actually returns a log entry. If it doesn't, ie. there is nothing to return, then moreToCome will be nil. Actually all the vlues, "time, moreToCome, name, msg" will be nil.

Try this instead.

Code: Select all

until moreToCome ~= true

That should work.

[spawni]

ty - will try it out and give feedback (tomorrow)

[spawni]

your tip made the difference - no it beeps - thx for your help

Hi

I'm trying to implement this as follows:

Code: Select all

if (soundLoad) then
	notifysound = soundLoad(getExecutionPath() .. "/alarm.wav");
	if (notifysound == nil) then
		warning("Failed to load sound file \'alarm.wav\'");
	end
end

function beepwhispers()
      repeat
      	local time, moreToCome, name, msg = EventMonitorCheck("WhisperNotify", "4,1")
         if time ~= nil and name ~= "Newbie Pet" then
		 printf("Someone whispered!\n");
		 if (notifysound == nil) then
         		printf("\a\a\a");
		else
			if (soundGetState(notifysound) ~= "playing") then
				soundPlay(notifysound);
			end
		end
         end
      until moreToCome ~= true
end

function enablenotifications()
	EventMonitorStart("WhisperNotify", "CHAT_MSG_WHISPER");
   	registerTimer("beepwhispers", secondsToTimer(5), beepwhispers);
	printf("Enabled notifications.\n");
end
	

However it seems time is always nil so the sound is never played. Any ideas?

Thanks,

Mike

[rock5]

'time' uses 'os.time()' which was removed from the game awhile back. You will need an addon like d303fix to add it again or maybe check by 'moretocome'. That should always return true or false if an entry was found so this should work

Code: Select all

if moreToCome ~= nil and name ~= "Newbie Pet" then
       printf("Someone whispered!\n");

[mike]

Ah offcourse! Thanks for helping a noob Rock5.

[BlubBlab]

Is there an order in moreToCome or will it response random?

[rock5]

It should send you the messages in order from oldest to newest.

[BlubBlab]

Then it should work as intended thx
