(note skill name's censored out)

And at that point, the game is completely unresponsive.

All SVN applications I'm trying to install, all installations 'end prematurely' and don't want to install for some reason

lol. Strange. I use Tortoise SVN without any problems. Sometimes you have to delete 'red marked' files to avoid conflicts. Hope your problem with the bot is now gone?

Could you post more of your MM window content. Before and after the yellow updare messages?

EDIT: I saw in your screenshot a 'Timeout' from the macro function. That could happen If you don't define your ingame dummy macro (but the bot should not start if you don't do) or if your press and hold a modifier like CTRL/ALT/SHIFT while the bot is running.

Yellow.. what message?



Game freezes when I hit the delete button to resume/start the script.

Oo. I suppose you are running the l1-10' demo profile? That's designed to do the character classhall run for getting new arcane transmutor energy. And by doing that, the 'openGiftbags1To10();' function in the profile opens the Level 1-10 giftbags and at level 9 consumes a fruit. I don't account, that someone would use that for botting up a 'normal' character. But you have two apples. So still one left. lol

When did it use them? Did you move any of your inventory around while starting or running the bot?

Esiw wrote:I was not running the l1-10 demo profile, I have in fact never run any of the pre-existing waypoint profiles.

Esiw wrote:Also something I found out about pot cooldowns; it completely ignores the profile settings for it because; - in player.lua the string if( os.difftime(os.time(), self.PotionLastUseTime) < settings.profile.options.POTION_COOLDOWN+1 ) then is commentated out and if( os.difftime(os.time(), self.PotionLastUseTime) < 15+1 ) then is used instead, for some reason...

There was the thought that all potions have a cooldown from 15? It is more flexible to use the option, so I changed it back to use the POTION_COOLDOWN option if you want. The default is still 15(+1). It is in SVN 327.

I do not really understand your point completly. The skills are used in 'rounds'. All skills in your profile are checked one after another if your are usable (check the cooldown, the options, ...). And if the bot reach the last skill he starts again with the first one. As a melee the bot is using parallel to the skills the general attack key every 2 seconds (player.lua line 460).

So please write again what you want to do, what's your intention.

Esiw wrote:Either way, yea pots have cooldown of 15, but the pots I use atm give a "mana over time" effect that is 30 seconds long, I found it much more economical and more suitable for certain mobs or grind/farm areas to let it tick the full effect instead of letting my character spam away, and again depending on which type of potion I'm using.

Although at the same time I don't feel all that safe that I'm putting my HP pots on a 30sec CD at the same time...

<option name="POTION_COOLDOWN_HP"	value="30" />
<option name="POTION_COOLDOWN_MANA"	value="30" />

Esiw wrote:Well, to put it simply, if I'm in-game and I spam my hotkey to shoot my rising tide, it fires a significantly higher amount of that spell per minute compared to if I let the bot do it- I'm thinking if I can make the bot attempt to fire multiple times (just as I'm doing when I'm spamming the button as the spell is about to go off from the previous cast) that it would increase the fire rate in the same way.

As for latency, I just know from experience with WoW that latency can have a great effect on cast times, so I wasnt sure if the bot was waiting with casts to make room for latency, or whatever

<onSkillCast>
	if( 20 > player.HP/player.MaxHP*100 ) then
	    player:cast("PRIEST_SOUL_SOURCE");
	elseif( 30 > player.HP/player.MaxHP*100 ) then
	    player:cast("PRIEST_HOLY_AURA");
	    player:cast("PRIEST_URGENT_HEAL");
	    player:cast("PRIEST_URGENT_HEAL");
	end;
</onSkillCast>

Esiw wrote:Oh and btw, in the latest default.xml you have <!-- either false or arrow or thrown --!> and the --!> at the end instead of just --> causes the bot to return an error message when you attempt to run it.

d003232 wrote:You can use them in your profile to have different cooldowns. If they are not set, the general cooldown option will be used. Although I'm not sure if we really need two different one. Because as long as the potion ticks, you should be above your 'take a potion' limit with your mana/hp value. And if not, it seems so be reasonable to take a new one, even if the old one is still ticking.

Esiw wrote:Yes it could be a little difference by checking the other not usable skills. But I would argue that the lagging is < 100 ms ? Hence you could spam any cast by adding it within your profile into the '<onSkillCast>' event. Here an example with some emergency casts:

Code: Select all

<onSkillCast>
	if( 20 > player.HP/player.MaxHP*100 ) then
	    player:cast("PRIEST_SOUL_SOURCE");
	elseif( 30 > player.HP/player.MaxHP*100 ) then
	    player:cast("PRIEST_HOLY_AURA");
	    player:cast("PRIEST_URGENT_HEAL");
	    player:cast("PRIEST_URGENT_HEAL");
	end;
</onSkillCast>

Esiw wrote:I tried that, adding the mechanics to onSkillCast, but that's not what I'm looking for- it's exactly the same if I add anything there, it still waits an eternity between attempting to use attacks/spells and waits much longer after a spell cast is finished than necessary when compared to the spell fire rate of my own buttonmashing.



Oh and yeah sorry for all the quick edits in my post but; any idea why my character doesnt sit down when the bot is resting for mana/hp?

rom/bot.lua profile:l1-10

d003232 wrote:We don't sit because the most players don't sit if the rest. Or most players don't rest? And if all bot's ingame are sitting for resting that would look a little strange. buuut .... we could add a option?
