Problem using aimAt command

Need some help here. I'm using a .lua script similar in fashion to the creatpaths script and in it, I'm attempting to make the bot's camera point toward a specific coordinates. In the script where I run the command player:aimAt({v.x, v.z, player.Y-3}), I get the error:
"2016-01-30 10:43:43 - ...am Files (x86)/micromacro/scripts/rom/classes/player.lua:3919: attempt to index global 'camera' (a nil value)"
Line 3919 of player.lua is simply camera:update(). Why is that not running? I'm assuming something isn't loading that is needed? But I have no idea what.

If you are using a modified version of createpath then quite a lot of the bot functions wouldn't be loaded.
Try adding this to your code.
Code: Select all
local cameraAddress = memoryReadIntPtr(getProc(), addresses.staticbase_char, addresses.camPtr_offset);
if( cameraAddress == nil ) then cameraAddress = 0; end;
camera = CCamera(cameraAddress);
There may be more needed to add/include but it would be a matter of trying and working out what is missing to be able to do what you want.
TBH it might be easier to just make up a WP file that does what you want for creating paths, that way every function in the bot will be active.

Thanks Lisa. I was wondering earlier today if maybe I should make it a waypoint file instead.
I have another question. I have this file creating a table (with embedded tables) holding nodes, NPCs, MOBs, objects, and neighboring nodes. Now I'm at the point where I want to save this off into a file. Any idea how I might save a table like this into a file that I can later copy into a userfunction? I know doing a table.print doesn't make it look anything like the arrays we tend to use a lot. For example, this is the format we tend to use a lot:
Code: Select all
mytable = {
[1] = {x = 1435, z = 6532, Neighbors = { 2, 4}, NPCs = {110532}, }
[2] = {x = 1504, z = 6620, Neighbors = { 1, 3, 7}, MOBs= {110532}, }
[3] = {x = 1435, z = 6532, Neighbors = { 2, 4}, NPCs = {110529}, }
}
But I'm not sure how to save my table info out into a format like that. Any ideas?

Basically you want to save the exact thing you see that you posted into a file.
Here is an example that does more than you want but you can pick and choose what you need from it.
Code: Select all
local function savefile()
local tmp_points = {};
for i,v in pairs(worldmap.points) do
table.insert(tmp_points, {index = i, value = v});
end
table.sort(tmp_points, function (a,b) return (a.index < b.index) end)
file, err = io.open("rbmedit/pointssaved.lua", "w+");
file:write("return {\n")
for i,v in ipairs(tmp_points) do
file:write("\t["..(v.index).."]={ X="..v.value.X.." , Z="..v.value.Z)
if v.value.Y ~= nil then
file:write(", Y="..v.value.Y)
end
if v.value.Name ~= nil then
file:write(", Name=\""..v.value.Name.."\"")
end
file:write(", Links={")
if v.value.Links ~= nil then
for j,k in ipairs(v.value.Links) do
if k.Num then
file:write("["..j.."]={Num="..k.Num)
end
if k.Action then
file:write(", Action=\""..k.Action.."\"")
end
file:write("},")
end
file:write("}")
else
file:write("}")
end
file:write("},\n")
end
file:write("}")
file:close()
end
You also want to have
instead of the
Then to use the table in the file you just need to do
something like that anyway
