player:target_NPC

[beanybabe]

I was using rombot 3.29 rev 778

to make a waypoint.

If you start at portal in logar and press 1 then target snoop press 5 press 6 then 3(go to varanas) save and check the xml it fails their are 2 << >> that seem to be causing problems.

Code: Select all

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?><waypoints>
	<!-- #  1 --><waypoint x="-1159" z="-5541" y="61">
			player:target_NPC(111256) -- Snoop the Stubborn
			ChoiceOptionByName(">> Transport to Varanas <<")
	</waypoint>
	<!-- #  2 --><waypoint x="2294" z="1154" y="24">	</waypoint>
</waypoints>

I'd suggest you try using Rock5's travelTo user function for dealing with Snoop. It makes things so much easier when traveling between zones.

Ive thought of trying that function but on simple waypoints I prefer to just use the default waypoints as made by the creator. I have been adding a wait and loop to check for npc on other end.

Code: Select all

      repeat
      yrest(500)
      until player:target_NPC(111256) -- Snoop the Stubborn
	ChoiceOptionByName(">> Transport to Varanas <<")
	yrest(500);	
	mountUp();

I just ran into 2 places (logar to varanas) and (east_varanas to central_varanas) that it creates invalid html. I wanted to let him know so he might apply a fix to the code some time later.


I can fix by just using
ChoiceOption(3) -- transport to varanas.
which will work but some times the choices move.

I believe the >> are added by an addon. The >> will cause an error. ChoiceOptionByName works with partial names so you can just delete those brackets and it should work, eg.

Code: Select all

ChoiceOptionByName("Transport to Varanas")

But you are right, it's a good idea if createpath could handle and fix it. I'll look into it.

Done. The next commit will have the fix included.
