RoM bot

[viperfx]

Can anyone please share with me their settings to get this bot working with the addon called UberFlex ?

Now, that 'ë' in your character's name needs to be replaced with \137. So, if your name was "Namë", change it to "Nam\137". Save it, and run the bot.

I'm pretty sure "\137" isn't a valid string character. If LUA is anything like other languages it would be "\x89". The "\x" denotes you wish to insert a byte string, and then from there you can add all the hexadecimal code you want.

Anyways, I started fooling around with the bot a few days ago out of curiosity, and my bot isn't resurrecting upon death. The window just waits on a mouse click. What is the fix for this?

\137 is decimal notation. See the Extended ASCII chart. You will need to use string.char(0x89) to insert it through hex.

As for the resurrection problem, let me see your profile and a screenshot of your hotkeys.

i wonder if there is a way to "blacklist" mobs so u don't accidentally go after elite mobs or mobs that are too high for yu but in the area you want to bot

You could add the monsters to your friend list in profile. That should do the trick.

It does not do the trick. I added "Cow Beetle" and "Yuri" to my friends list in profiles\player.xml and I still attack both of those things.

As for the resurrection problem, let me see your profile and a screenshot of your hotkeys.

I figured out the problem. Somewhere in this topic you (or someone else) said the script was AcceptRessurection(true); and later on in the topic it was said to actually be AcceptResurect();

I haven't died yet, but I assume with the macro properly set up and default bot settings, when I die, the bot will use the macro, I will res, the bot will wait 60s for the sickness to go away, and then it will follow my deathpath.xml back to the leveling spot?

Also, there is a bug ingame; If you die, swap your equipment in your Character Screen using that new button. Swap your gear to be naked, then ressurect, then swap back. Your items wont lose any durability and you'll save yourself a lot of cash. Perhaps a macro or the bot could be updated to automatically do this upon death?

Bug Report

Code: Select all

			local target = player:getTarget();
			if( settings.profile.options.ANTI_KS ) then
				if( target:haveTarget() and target:getTarget().Address ~= player.Address and (not player:isFriend(CPawn(target.TargetPtr))) ) then
					cprintf(cli.red, language[5], target.Name);
				else
					player:fight();
				end
			else
				player:fight();
			end

If I have ANTI_KS set to false, I will still attack everyone on my Friends List, since the check is not done in that case. The very first check should be a Friends List check, then a KS check, which doesn't work at all, since true or false my bot steals all kills anyways...

When selecting a new target, the very first check should be a Friends List check. Then you sohuld check if the target is at 100% health. If not, you should not attack it. Time and time again my bot targets and initiates an attack on a monster that is at low health (35%) and being killed by another player.

Couple of points. Anti Kill steal works fine. I am a melee player so i see this work better than if you were a ranged person. I have been using the bot for a couple of months nearly and started using that freature strait away. So it does work.

I do agree however the bot should NEVER target a mob that is below 100% health if anti KS is turned on. Simple coding fix witch would then eliminate other code. At the moment my bot will target a mob start chasing it and eventually wills top once the mobs health then changes again. Once this happens it then has to backtrack to the waypoint and then get another target. This can eat 10s easy.

The Way to ignore mobs you dont want to target is to simply add them to your friends list. This works perfectly. The 500+ mino charms i farmed proves this. If you are around lvl 36 you will be familiar with minotaur Patrolman and their berhu pets. Pets have insane health for the the lvl and disapear when the patrolman dies. I put in my friends list Berhu and it would ALWAYS skip the berhu. So this feature does work as intended.

All in all this bot is a fantastic piece of software. One of the best bots i have ever used.

Keep up the good work.


Oh for the person who had issue with the funny chracter the error you were getting is probably due to need another / infront of the numbers as the 1st slash the code is thinking it is a tag that needs closing. It is probably liek php where you need to place and escape char infront of it to signify that is is the actual character not the special properties the character represents. Mind sound odd to some but if you are a programmer or have worked with regular expressions you should get my drift .

Yes, that is correct.

Your items wont lose any durability and you'll save yourself a lot of cash. Perhaps a macro or the bot could be updated to automatically do this upon death?

I'm sure there is a Lua function to swap your equipment, but I do not know what it is offhand. Lets just pretend it's SwapEquipment() for now. You can change your res macro to this:

Code: Select all

SwapEquipment();
AcceptResurrect();
wait 5
SwapEquipment();

I will not be adding any code to the bot for this, however, as I know for a fact that they are currently working to fix this bug. It is expected to be fixed next week. Take advantage of it while you can.

Thanks for the bug report; I will be working on it soon. I think that a majority of the KS-check problem is due to an in-game bug where if you are out of distance of the player (or his enemy) when he targets the enemy, then move in range, it does not properly update that other players' target. However, a simple health check should fix the problem, I suppose.



The problem with Extended ASCII and Unicode characters in player names is proving quite annoying. Lua does not work well with Unicode. To compound the problem, the characters are stored as multi-width... meaning it's difficult to guess how many bytes each character will be. If a character is 2-bytes (ex: ë), it must be converted to 2 single by characters (ex: ├ ½). Now comes more trouble with Lua... it doesn't want to find profiles with either 'ë' or '├½' in them.

[shavas]

As a suggested work around for the lua profiles. Add in an optional config to specify the lua config file. Dont waste time trying to beat your head against the limitations of a language... just code around it. The amount of time i have wasted on various projects cause of that mindset has now taught me to step back and just work around it. It wont be so elegant but i am sure in a very short time you can add a section in for somone to name the lua script they want. Maybe even have it passed in as a command line option from micromagic.

Cheers.

Pls administrator help me =\

what i must change in my micromacro to my char attack first the mobs that are attacking me first, because here my character are being attacked by 3 mobs and he got a new target and dont attack first the mobs that are attacking me first, plz what i can do to my char kill first all the mobs are already attacking me first to take after a new target? ty =)

since the targeting only targets stuff in front of you, you could goto the onLeaveCombat section and add a script to move backwards

Code: Select all

keyboardHold(settings.hotkeys.MOVE_BACKWARD.key);
yrest(200);
keyboardRelease(settings.hotkeys.MOVE_BACKWARD.key);

then when it goes to auto target it should grab the closest mob which should be the ones hitting you (i havent tried it yet, just theory)

WORKS FINE RAJIN!! TY!!

I need a screenshot of your hotkeys.

[fatty]

screenshot..<Removed for the user's protection>

[Administrator]

Looks like you've got it set up correctly. I've removed the link to your screenshot to protect you.

Turn off the bot for a minute, and kill a monster and then click on the 0 hotkey (attack). Does it loot for you?

[fatty]

thx and no 0 doesn't loot for me

[Administrator]

Did you hotkey your weapon, or did you move the Attack icon from General skills into hotkey 0?

[fatty]

lol that was it. >< tytyty

so, u know a way i can fix the "ë" ?

so, u know a way i can fix the "ë" ?

Download the newest version (2.24), and manually load your profile. It's simple, just append the profile name when running the script: rom/bot.lua profile:Mynamë


executor: Make absolutely sure that your profile exists in micromacro/scripts/rom/profiles/ and that the filename is in the format of Yourcharname.xml, and not Yourcharname.xml.xml.

[executor]

did this and now i have error and it says that game was updated . i downloaded the 2.24 version and starded rom\update.lua but it isnt working
EDIT:I installed new version once again and now it only gives me e:\...player.lua:638: attempt to index local 'pawn' (a nil value) error.How can i fix this?
