Bot errors

[masstic1es]

I recently did an svn update to most recent bot commit (bot 329 revision 772) , and since then it seems I've been crashing and erroring out on the bot more often.

is there error in my scripts? or am I just that lucky? Seems to happen on all of my daily quest scripts (big and small chars, different quest locations)

Also not sure if this is connected, but my clients have been crashing more often than not as well

In your other topic I asked about what version of game your server uses.

Really not sure what to say.

Second pic is saying that RoMScript("GetNumQuest(3)") is returning something other than a number, this is in the completequestbyname function. Even if you have no quests it still returns 0 as a number, so for it to not return a number is beyond weird.

Code: Select all

Command> print(RoMScript("GetNumQuest(3)"))
0
Command> print(type(RoMScript("GetNumQuest(3)")))
number

So yeah again I'll ask if you are playing on a server that has the latest game or if the server uses an older game version.

I think you may have me confused with someone else?

I play on one of the "official" servers. version 6.0.6.2689

[lisa]

Yeah I was thinking of another person.

Only thing that really comes to mind is the last game patch has corrupted your game itself.
Have you got another PC with the game on it or maybe 2 lots of the game on 1 PC which could rule out that as an issue?

[masstic1es]

for the errors or the crashing? Or both? and yeah, I can test on multiple machines.

My script also gives lower error. Ambolia´s Graffu farm

and I could not communicate because it burns before the pc

I am nearly unable to do anything with the bot since the last revision too. Every script crashes with different errors. Scripts, which didn't crash before. The lower error while leveling weapon, different errors when completing quests. Loginnextchar userfunction errors sometimes when relogging, which it never did. The ingamefunction addon is not installed or, the test macro didn't work (both errors). I should start writing down all errors, or just use the old revision

So was it definitely since the last bot revision? Not since the last client update?

or just use the old revision

Actually that's not a bad idea. If it resolves your issues then that would definitely confirm there is a problem with the changes made and not something else.

Yeah it's always hard to say, because for some people it works fine, but I am reading some other posts where people get errors. My bot also runs, but not as reliable as it did earlier, which is because I get many errors. For some reason I am not able to revert to an older version, because it doesn't show me an older version :/

go
TorsiouseSVN --> Update to Revision
then
Tick Revision and to the right in white box put in the number, 771

[Ego95]

Yes that did it Tested it the last days and it doesn't crash anymore .

[rock5]

Ok then I'll look over the changes from 771 to 772 and see if I can find something. I don't hold much hope though. There are a lot of changes. What do you do that causes the most errors? Maybe I could reproduce the error. If I can, it will be that much easier for me to find the problem.

[Ego95]

It's hard to say, because mostly, when there is an error I read it, try to find anything about it and if I don't find anything I'll just think it was a problem of rom itself.
Additionally it is totally random when it errores :/

Maybe you can try following things:

1.At first I noticed the crashes when doing that daily on elven island where you have to run to the waterfall to collect something. I did this which 3 accounts.
If I remember correctly on the first account the bot crashed right after starting when accepting the quest. I believe they all crashed when accepting or completing a quest but on the other accounts it happened at the 4th or 5th alt. Maybe if you can, just run two or three accounts through that daily.

2. The next thing, where I noticed crashes was when leveling up the weapon ability. A script, which normally worked for up to 24 hours (didn't test it longer) always crashes with the new revision.
I used this script: http://solarstrike.net/phpBB3/viewtopic ... 098#p52098

Sometimes is crashed after 10 minutes, sometimes after 2 hours. I think I got the error mentioned in the first post. (http://solarstrike.net/phpBB3/download/ ... &mode=view)

3. In generall I noticed crashes when using your LoginNextChar userfunction right after logging in. I got the message, that the communication with the game did not work (http://solarstrike.net/phpBB3/download/ ... &mode=view) or I got the message that the ingamefunctions addon is not installed.

Sorry, that I cannot give you any further information right now. Like I said above it's really hard to find out because the errors happen randomly.

The first thing I'll try is the elf dailies. They are easy enough yo do. To be sure it's not something wrong with the way you do things, could you send me your version and I'll use that.

BTW in another post with a similar issue, it was fixed by reverting to version 771. You might want to try that. Just use "Update to revision".

[rock5]

It was just brought to my attention that I never officially updated the login and loginnextchar userfunctions to the version I'm using. I've updated them now so see if they help with you relog errors.

[Ego95]

Okay, I did update the userfunctions Didn't test them with the new revision yet.

I will add the elf daily script which I've downloaded as it is here on solarstrike. There should be nothing wrong in itm because it worked for about one year. Maybe there are a few things to improve. You just have to use your account number and your secondary password

I also changed the itemshop guid. Updated gmmonitor because I don't usually use it. Which brings me to the question, what gmmmonitor options do you use as in profile options? It could be relevant because gmmonitor can be the cause of issues because it uses a timed event. I've never used searchGMList. I'm assuming you are using gmmonitor 7.7a? Have you changed any of the default settings at the top of the file?

[lisa]

If you think a timer event is the issue during a yrest then use rest instead as it doesn't yield and the timer event code isn't done during the rest.

[rock5]

I know. That's why I previously said it shouldn't cause a problem because waitForLoadingScreen and related functions don't yield. But we don't know what the problem is so I'm just trying to cover all bases, just in case.

I am using v7.8c. Because I am playing on an official server I just turned up the gmMinLevel value to 86
