Option - run back after fight to wp

[Jig]

Hello,

i have follow problem, i want to farm some mobs, but without running - just standing still.

if i use wander with radius 0 then i have the problem the bot doesnt run to the original position. im using this atm:

Code: Select all

<waypoints>

<option name="PATH_TYPE"              value="wander"/>
<option name="WANDER_RADIUS"          value="0" />

<!-- #  1 --><waypoint x="x" z="z" y="y">	player:restrnd(100, 3, 10) </waypoint>

</waypoints>

so he runs back after every fight, but the bot is circling his head, and that is obviously a bot after some minutes.

If i dont pause, the bot is circling his head continuously - but it doesnt fight or scan for targets.

Can someone help me?

If you don't want it to move while it waits then you have to write some wait code
Eg.

Code: Select all

repeat
    yrest(1000)
until player:findEnemy(false,nil,evalTargetDefault)

That should work. It should stand still and wait until a valid mob is in range and then continue normally and attack it. When there are no more mobs it should return to the wp to wait again.

i really don't see how this part can work

Code: Select all

<option name="PATH_TYPE"              value="wander"/>
<option name="WANDER_RADIUS"          value="0" />

What I usually do though in this situation is do the code in onload and not even have any actual waypoints

If you are melee you would also need to add code to go back to the spot you want, if ranged it's pretty easy.

Code: Select all

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?><waypoints>
<onLoad>

changeProfileOption("MAX_TARGET_DIST", 180);
changeProfileOption("COMBAT_DISTANCE", 180);

while (true) do
local done = false
	local objectList = CObjectList();
	objectList:update();
	local objSize = objectList:size()
	for i = 0,objSize do
		obj = objectList:getObject(i);
		if done ~= true and (obj.Name == "Puppet Warrior" or obj.Name == "Puppet Shaman" and obj.Type ~= 1) then
				player:target(obj);
				--player:update();
				--if( player:haveTarget() ) then
					player:fight();
					done = true
				--end
		end
	end
	player:checkSkills(true);
end

</onLoad>
</waypoints>
