Hey experts.

from time to time I got a problem, that after killing a mob ("Clearing target."), the bot stands an do nothing! I have delete everything from my <onleavecombat> segment, but the problem is not solved.
Has enyone the same problem? Any solution?

you might have to try turning on debugging to work out what is happening

Yeap - have switched <option name="DEBUGGING" value="true" /> so from time to time I got this "Error in memory reading" which is causing this stucking :shock: - have the newest bot rev.

There are 2 places where the message "Error in memory reading" appears. One is in functions.lua but that errors when it appears if you have debugging enabled so it wouldn't cause it to get stuck. The other place it appears is in pawn.lua in the memoryReadRepeat function which is used in lots of places but mostly in pawn.lua, player.lua and in a few functions in functions.lua.

Hmm, this could be more difficult to localize the problem.

Hm, same issue again

Code: Select all

Bewegung zu | Soll Entfernung: 50 | Ist: 75
Kampf beendet. 18 Bebender Elementar getötet. (Kampf #43 / Laufzeit 6 Minuten)
Lösche Ziel.
Error in memory reading
Error in memory reading
Error in memory reading
Error in memory reading
Error in memory reading
the bot stops after "clearing target" - I've to pause [END] and to resume [DEL] the bot manually to continue the script. :(

I have to many theories to list, a bit more info might narrow it down though.

1: Is it always after killing the same mob type?
2: Is there anything in the waypoint doing the cleartarget or is it just part of normal bot usage?
3: Is there anything in your onleavecombat in profile?
4: Is there anything in the WP that checks an address directly?
5: Anything in a userfunction that is using an address to access memory?
6: Is it only every now and then or is it quite often?
7: Are you botting a new map, or is it an area you have botted regularly before?
8: Are you using any addons, have you tried removing all non essential addons?
9: Does it happen on other characters?
10: If you tap the computer gently on the left side with your index finger does it work again?


lol sorry about #10 but I just had to make it an even 10 questions ;)

I get this often too. "End" then "Delete" seems to do the trick, but manual intervention is not good. I just got it at Howling Elemental in goblins. Will try to keep track the places I see it. I know for sure I see it while doing butterfly dailies all the time as well.
