Waypoint Configuration Problem

[peacemoneys1105]

<waypoints type="RUN">
<!-- # 1 --><waypoint x="-5477" z="3408">
__WPL:setWaypointIndex(1);
yrest(2000);
player:scan_for_NPC("Bullet");
yrest(1000);
</waypoint>
....
<!-- # 25 --><waypoint x="-2806" z="9232">
player:target_NPC("Simon");
yrest(1000);
</waypoint>
<!-- # 26 --><waypoint x="-2749" z="9231" type="TRAVEL">__WPL:reverse();</waypoint>
</waypoints>

When I start the bot it will usually work for one loop but when it returns it gets the quest again and then tries going for last waypoint.. thus getting stuck. I thought it was the WPL:reverse so I tried a different tag and that didn't help either. It does reverse around after turning in the quest so that works.

When you reach waypoint #1, you are resetting the waypoint index to 1 again. This means you will probably keep trying to run to waypoint #1 forever.

Once it has reached the last waypoint and reversed and then reaches waypoint #1 again, it will still be going in reverse (hence, trying to go to waypoint #25 from waypoint #1). You should put this in waypoint #1:

Code: Select all

__WPL:setDirection(WPT_FORWARD);
__WPL:setWaypointIndex(2);

And in waypoint #25:

Code: Select all

__WPL:setDirection(WPT_BACKWARD);
__WPL:setWaypointIndex(24);

This way you can ensure that your character is running the correct direction and to the correct waypoint.

I did that some time ago just with using a

Code: Select all

__WPL:reverse()

at the first and at the last waypoint. Or do it the way like Adin said.

      keyboardHold(key.VK_SHIFT);
      player:mouseclickL(440, 280, 825, 582);   <!-- Blackboard -->
      keyboardRelease(key.VK_SHIFT);
      player:rest(.5);   
      player:mouseclickL(150, 250, 825, 582);   <!-- quest -->
      player:rest(.5);   
   </waypoint>
   <!-- # 3 --><waypoint x="00000" z="00000" ></waypoint>
   <!-- # 4 --><waypoint x="00000" z="00000" >
   player:target_NPC("NPCNAME");
   player:rest(1);
   player.free_counter1 = player.free_counter1 + 1;
   if(player.free_counter1 == 10) then
     player:sleep();
   end;
   </waypoint>
</waypoints>

thats how i have mine set up, no reversing needed

That's a good tricky solution for all the cases you have nearly intervisibility between the board and the NPC.

with a little modification you could do any daily hand in

you dont have to use reverse commands if you add the waypoints in reverse order, or even just similarly placed points for the trip back to the board
