Change exp Per Hour in Window title

Can I add something to my waypoints to make Rom bot show in the window title what Ive gathered so far vs how much exp Ive earner

Idealy I would have it say

RoM Bot Player****(Gathered #Number Gathered# "Item monitored")

Item monitored could be staticaly assigned so only 1 number would change

Currently it says something like

RoM Bot Player**** (exp ####/HR)

Not at home rite now but I think Thats about right.

This could be used to monitor items gathered using Harvest waypoints, Gold for Clops KS, and Eggs too. Im sure their are other uses.

Please let me know if this is already available otherwise if it can be made

Check this thread started by Lisa:

http://www.solarstrike.net/phpBB3/viewt ... =27&t=2034

It tracks some character info and gold gained. Maybe you could modify it for what you want.

This could work for what I want.

If I can find where the current window title is defined I can work from there.

Any help please,

Thanks

Code: Select all

	-- Set window name, install timer to automatically do it once a second
	local displayname = string.sub(load_profile_name, 1, 4) .. "****";
	setWindowName(getHwnd(), sprintf("RoM Bot %s [%s]", BOT_VERSION, displayname));
	settings.loadProfile(load_profile_name);
	settingsPrintKeys();		-- print keyboard settings to MM and log
	registerTimer("timedSetWindowName", secondsToTimer(1), timedSetWindowName, load_profile_name);
	player.BotStartTime_nr = os.time();	-- remember bot start time no reset
	player.level_detect_levelup = player.Level;	-- remember actual player level

	store = CStore()

Ok,

Ive found this in bot.lua and I think this is where it is setting the window name (probably why it says set window name) can I change this in a profile after its been set? or would I need to edit it here to make it an option first?

I was thinking their would need to be an option to read Inventory rather than read EXP.

Not asking for it to be done for me tho, Id like to work through this and actually see it happen, so just lookin for a nudge in the right direction here

Code: Select all

local LAST_PLAYER_X = 0;
local LAST_PLAYER_Z = 0;
function timedSetWindowName(profile)
	local displayname = string.sub(profile, 1, 4) .. "****";
	if( (player.X ~= LAST_PLAYER_X) or (player.Z ~= LAST_PLAYER_Z) ) then
		setWindowName(getHwnd(), sprintf(language[600],
		BOT_VERSION, displayname, player.X, player.Z, player.ExpPerMin, player.TimeTillLevel));

		LAST_PLAYER_X = player.X;
		LAST_PLAYER_Z = player.Z;
	end
end

So where is the formula for player.ExpPerMin and player.TimeTillLevel

I assume as this refreshes when player coords change that this is where I want to make my changes

Now I can use help XD

Code: Select all

		setWindowName(getHwnd(), sprintf(language[600],
		BOT_VERSION, displayname, player.X, player.Z, player.ExpPerMin, player.TimeTillLevel));

This is what is doing the text on your window, alter that and you alter what is being shown.

This should change the text to I like monkeys

Code: Select all

setWindowName(getHwnd(), "I like monkeys")

Does that help you?

To put this into practic, I wonder if you could just replace the timedSetWindowName function somewhere in your own code. Then when the timer calls for it, it runs your version. I don't know if that would work but it's worth trying.

Code: Select all

storecharinfo(player.Name,"Eggs,"..inventory:itemTotalCount(204792)..",Cakes,"..inventory:itemTotalCount(204791))

So I have the addon working to store the character info, but how can I use this same string to show counts on the window

Code: Select all

setWindowName(getHwnd(), sprintf(language[600],
      BOT_VERSION, displayname, player.X, player.Z, player.ExpPerMin, player.TimeTillLevel));

This is good string of code and if I could repurpose the calculations and put them into a new addon much like the first string of code has its own addon, then I could end up with something like

Code: Select all

if( os.difftime(os.time(), self.LastExpUpdateTime) > self.ExpUpdateInterval ) then
		--local newExp = RoMScript("GetPlayerExp()") or 0;	-- Get newest value
		--local maxExp = RoMScript("GetPlayerMaxExp()") or 1; -- 1 by default to prevent division by zero

		local newExp = self.XP or 0;
		local maxExp = memoryReadRepeat("intptr", getProc(), addresses.charMaxExpTable_address, (self.Level-1) * 4) or 1;

		self.LastExpUpdateTime = os.time();					-- Reset timer

		if( type(newExp) ~= "number" ) then newExp = 0; end;
		if( type(maxExp) ~= "number" ) then maxExp = 1; end;

Where Exp calculations would be changed to be Item per hour, with the variable that you desire being set at the beginning of a waypoint

My problem is I dont know LUA at all yet and simply reading through code and mashing it together is tedious.

Ill keep at it, but does anyone know if I can define my own variables within my own addon?

something like

WaypointType = gather
namevar1 = monitored item 1
namevar2 = monitored Item 2
GatherItem1 = inventory:itemTotalCount(204792)
GatherItem2 = inventory:itemTotalCount(204791))

For example Below is not working code

Code: Select all

setWindowName(player.Name,"namevar1,"..GatherItem1..",namevar2,"..GatherItem2))

You could monitor the Waypoint file to see if its Gather or Level and then it would change the window readout accordingly

If you could define variables you could make a new variable using the ExpPerMin calcualtions as well

Code: Select all

self.ItemPerMin = ItemGainSum / ( valueCount * self.ItemUpdateInterval / 60 );

This is all in theory, but by making a calc like that with some added new variables you could then calulate gold herbs eggs cards daily items and monitor them using rombot obviously you could use ItemGainSum exported to a list to quickly calculate totals if you like too.

And thats my whole idea currently XD

try

Code: Select all

setWindowName(getHwnd(),sprintf(player.Name.." "..GatherItem1.." "..GatherItem2))

Sigh still no worky

sorry forgot the print and didn't check the ()

Code: Select all

setWindowName(getHwnd(),sprintf(player.Name.." "..GatherItem1.." "..GatherItem2))

I assumed you had done the code for

Code: Select all

GatherItem1 =

and

Code: Select all

GatherItem2 =

already.

Interesting

attempt to concatenate global 'gatherItem2' (a nil value)

how do I define these variables

GatherItem 1 and 2

O.o nice with the fast responses

thats what I thought but was getting errors

Seems this is working.

So I assume I can then pull the calc function out of the Player.lua and remanufacture it to meet my needs while defining variables?

Thanks for the help so far

Strange I can define static values but Im guessing im typing this wrong.

I want the values to be

GatherItem2 = inventory:itemTotalCount(204792)

but when I enter it like that I get the error

Inventory (a nil value)

I thought this was reading the inventory and making a count. doesnt the inventory update on startup ?

Sorry I thought you had it mostly done, you just needed to know how to implement it.

Code: Select all

local GatherItem1 = inventory:itemTotalCount(208473) -- lvl 66 health pot
local GatherItem2 = inventory:itemTotalCount(208480) -- lvl 66 mana pot
setWindowName(getHwnd(),sprintf(player.Name.."health pots: "..GatherItem1.." mana pots: "..GatherItem2))

also there was a patch recently and the new addresses haven't been found yet, I am surprised you can do anything with bot =)

I was busy today

bot is working and addressing for eggs seems ok now so thats why I was using them

But Ill have to stop here for the night

Good Morning

So here is what Ive thought about

Code: Select all

local GatherItem1 = inventory:itemTotalCount(208473) -- lvl 66 health pot
local GatherItem2 = inventory:itemTotalCount(208480) -- lvl 66 mana pot
local ItemPerMin1 = GatherItem1 / ( valueCount * self.ExpUpdateInterval / 60 ); --This should still work
local ItemPerMin2 = GatherItem2 / ( valueCount * self.ExpUpdateInterval / 60 ); -- to calculate per min 
local LAST_PLAYER_X = 0; 
local LAST_PLAYER_Z = 0;
function timedSetWindowName(profile)
	local displayname = string.sub(profile, 1, 4) .. "****";
	if( (player.X ~= LAST_PLAYER_X) or (player.Z ~= LAST_PLAYER_Z) ) then
		setWindowName(getHwnd(),sprintf(player.Name.."health pots: "..GatherItem1.." mana pots: "..GatherItem2));

		LAST_PLAYER_X = player.X;
		LAST_PLAYER_Z = player.Z;
	end
end

But I get an error when starting the bot,

Code: Select all

[b]5: attempt to index global 'inventory' (a nil value)[/b]

I am guessing this is in functions.lua around line 400?

2 things come to mind

first is that classes/inventory.lua hasn't been loaded yet which is why it is returning inventory as nil.

the other is something else has gone wrong, there must be more to the error message. what else did it say?

Where did you put the code? Or did you just edit the existing code?

If you edited the existing code, 'inventory' may not have been defined yet. I don't see any way around it.

But I think you could put this somewhere where it will be called after the bot has started, such as a userfunction or in an event such as an 'onload' event. It would then overwrite the existing code and inventory would already exist.
