Use of harvest

[vegasmike]

I apologize if this was covered elsewhere but I was unable to find anything on this in any threads that seemed even slightly relevant. I am having a problem with player:harvest(). For some objects, it works; for others, it does not.

Here is a line from my WP file

Code: Select all

<!-- # 13 --><waypoint x="-26189" z="34159" y="-144">player:target_Object(118914);player:harvest(118914, nil, true, true);</waypoint>

When I walk to the waypoints, I get a confirmation of the item name in MM as being found and that it will be harvested. However, the item never harvests and the quest never updates.

Using the harvest command in other quests, specifically ones in which the object being used is a caged prisoner, works just fine as applied but does not here. Any help would be appreciated.

player:harvest doesn't have that many options and should only really be used when collecting resources such as wood, herbs and ore. player:target_Object is for collecting objects. That's the function that has all the options for dealing with differerent types of objects.

After having excluded the player:harvest() function, I still have the same issue. MM says it recognizes the item by name and will harvest but it does not harvest the quest items from the node. Here is what I did:

Code: Select all

	<!-- # 13 --><waypoint x="-26189" z="34159" y="-144">player:target_Object(118914, nil, true, true);</waypoint>

Is it posible it's the wrong id? There is a quest item in Xaviera that has 2 ids, one is for the object you see and one is for the object you click. People usually have trouble botting it because they try to click the wrong id. When you click the Wildbery, does it disappear or does it just become unclickable but still visible?

It is certainly possible. I am very new at this. I got the ID by using getid. Are there better ways to go about getting the numbers?

Once MM shows that the item has been found and will be harvested, if the command to player:target_object() is resent immediately, MM gives a message for no harvestables available. However, on this second command, the cog never disappears from the screen which makes it seem as if the node is still available for harvest. The Wildberry never actually disappears.

Here is a little waypoint file I just wrote. Stand near a Wildberry and run it. It should print info on all objects within a radius of 50 from the player. If there is a second id printed with the same coords as the wildberry then that is probably the id you should be targeting.

I ran the WP and it didn't bring up any other names.

So it didn't print anything at all in green?

There are just the "Tergothen Wildberry"s from the area. The WP didn't yield any object IDs for me to compare but the names are the same as the quest as well as the tooltip.

[rock5]

Seeing as the item doesn't disappear, I was sure there was going to be more ids, either 2 objects with the same name but 2 ids or an unnamed object with a different id. I'm not sure what else to suggest.

I was trying to use this code to get the id of the Mysterious bag in Merdhin Tundra but it didn't print any id's

Code: Select all

GM detection started
Dist: 27,       Name: Mysterious Bag,   X: 2200.00,     Z: -9395.00
Dist: 26,       Name: Sugon Highland Reindeer,  X: 2200.63,     Z: -9395.67
Dist: 20,       Name: Mrbigshot,        X: 2236.05,     Z: -9391.15
Did not find any crashed game clients.
2:27pm - [string "..."]:14: End of file.

because I crash when I get bags there but no other zone I was wondering if the ids where different

if you want info of a nearby object you can have a userfunction like this.

Code: Select all

function kk(_arg1)
	local objectList = CObjectList();
	objectList:update();
	local objSize = objectList:size()
	for i = 0,objSize do
		obj = objectList:getObject(i);
		if string.find(obj.Name,_arg1) then
			table.print(obj)
		end
	end
end

then just start up commandline and use

Code: Select all

kk("Mysterious")

It is case sensative but you don't need the entire name.

Try using this in <onLeaveCombat>

Code: Select all

    if player:findNearestNameOrId("Mysterious Bag") then
        player:target_Object("Mysterious Bag")
        yrest(1000) -- If not enough time to pick up bag, increase it.
    end
