678 Changelog

[rock5]

• Fixed - Now shows the Revision number again when rombot starts. It's backward compatible so if you are still using TortoiseSVN 1.6, it will still work.
• Fixed - When using 'range' with player:moveTo, now it moves within range instead of stopping short. It would stop short because of 'successDist'.
• Improved accuracy - when reaching a waypoint, it now should stop within 10 instead of the 30 before. The way I did this is to have it stop looking for targets in the last 50. That made the loops faster and so I could reduce 'successDist' from 30 to 15. It usually stops within 10.
• Improved - The bot now checks the players speed to determine the stopping distance (successDist). On foot it should be at most 10 and mounted about 15. Seeing as the stopping distance depends on how far you travel each loop and how far you travel depends on how fast you are moving, I thought it only fitting that the 'successDist' variable should depend on your speed. So if you are mounted or drunk some speed potion then 'successDist' will vary accordingly.
• Modified - player:moveInRange is obsolete. Kept for backward compatibility. Now it uses moveTo instead of it's own code. It's obsolete because you can use a 'range' argument in moveTo.
• Modified - player:mount() now checks to see if you are swimming before trying to mount.
• Added - speed and swim offsets to make 2 of the above options possible. These are the same offsets used by the swim and speed hacks.

Started cot and got this. reverted 678 and latest cot version.

Code: Select all

11:25pm - scripts\rom/bot.lua:464: onLoad error: C:/micromacro 609/scripts/rom/classes/player.lua:1978: attempt to index local 'waypoint' (a boolean value)

got this too, also problems in goblin and normal farm waypoints (char going back and forward on a waypoint and does not take next one).
revert--> all ok

Yeh happened to me too. There was a small bug in player.lua line 2268. "self.moveTo" is supposed to be "self:moveTo"

got this too, also problems in goblin and normal farm waypoints (char going back and forward on a waypoint and does not take next one).
revert--> all ok

This also happened to me when I ran the sea of snow package script. If I create a simple waypoint with a few points, it doesn't do it. Looks like I was too optimistic with the successDist value. I need to do a bit more testing to see if I can avoid returning it to 30 again.

[rock5]

I've committed fixes to those 2 problems to rev 679.

The setting for successDist has been raised to 20. Not as good an improvement as I'd hope but it seems to be working properly now. *crossing my fingers*. Maybe I'll revisit it again in the future and try to improve it more.

[lisa]

no errors for me in 679 yet

[sdude13]

Problems on normal farm waypoints still exists.
using old revision and it works again...

Please explain. Are you talking about it running backand forward over the waypoint like in 678?

You can try adjusting these settings if you like, in file "player.lua".

Line 2098

Code: Select all

	local successDist = 0.4 * self.Speed -- Distance to consider successfully reaching the target location

And line 2242

Code: Select all

		successDist = 0.4 * self.Speed -- In case the players speed changed

Change the 0.4 to 0.5 or 0.6. At 0.6 it should be the same as 677.

[rock5]

I've effectively undid the changes that are supposed to improve accuracy of arriving at waypoints. It was causing problems, even though I kept increasing the value of 'successDist'. So 'successDist' is now effectivelly at 30 again.

Now at revision 681.

[lisa]

Hmm I updated to 681 but the splash screen keeps saying 677.

Um.... Um.... I don't know. Mine says 681.

Code: Select all

Welcome to rom bot! press END to quit

It can play up sometimes but it always works correctly right after I do an SVN Update on the 'rom' folder.
