Swapping clases, bot still tries to use previous class skill

[Cindy]

A couple questions regarding bot buffing.

1. After I swap class, it will try to use the skills from the first class, in my case on scout it still tries to use priest stuff like grace of life, and casts this a very large number of times (unsuccessfully of course, since its not available on scout side.

Profile entry:

Code: Select all

<skills_priest>
. . . 
<skill name="PRIEST_GRACE_OF_LIFE" 		hotkey="MACRO" priority="20" rebuffcut="30" inbattle="false" />

2. The bot appears to buff up when I get the script going, even with waypoint forced to TRAVEL, this is very bottish in areas that there is no reason to buff (ie. a script for doing something in town).

3. It also seems to have the unfortunate side effect of wiping out the player being mounted, which is unfortunate, because its not really good to have to mount up at every waypoint, and besides that also appears bottish and noticeable by a keen observer. (This is how I found out about botting, I noticed a guy always mounting at an exact spot that was odd, since it was halfway between point A and point B, and a human would just mount at A and go to B, not mount halfway there).

1.
After switching class you should reload the profile so the skills are also reloaded, can't remember the function off hand but try a forum search for "loadprofile", if no results then try just "profile"

2.
TRAVEL only stops you attacking mobs, doesn't stop from all skill casting. I thought the bot was changed to only use buff's with long durations unless in combat.

3.
bot shouldn't be casting buffs or healing while mounted, there is already code to deal with that.

What revision of bot are you using?

740...

I'll experiment with the script some more today. Thanks Lisa.

That did the trick, the buffing thing obviously went away with fixing the first issue.
