Question for Lisa: Party Bot

[kanta]

Ok, that seems to have worked. I did have to move the stopfollow=true so it was after the player:moveto. Kept getting target acquired before moving.
I really hate to say this.... but there's another problem now.... After I break party and reform to reset the instance the heal bot stops responding to the markers.
I may just set a 5 minute rest for reset....

Ok, I'm just too tired to keep going tonight.... 1am....

Code: Select all

        if icon == 4 and stopfollow ~= true then
         stopfollow = true
         player:moveTo(CWaypoint(-11837, 8644));
waitForLoadingScreen(5)
PartyHeals()
         end
         if icon ~= 4 then
         getNameFollow()
         stopfollow = false
         end
if icon == 3 then 
repeat
yrest(2000)
until RoMScript("GetNumPartyMembers()") == 0
waitForLoadingScreen(5)
repeat
yrest(2000)
until RoMScript("GetNumPartyMembers()") > 0
PartyHeals()
end

if icon == 2 then 
player:mount()
end

-- set icon on leader to 3, rest for 3-5 seconds then leave party
-- set icon on leader to 2 when you mount up, add a yrest(2000) after you use player:mount() on leader.

That should cover most things for now =)

ok... I'm at my wits' end. I've got an idea partially working but now it's stuck in a loop at one point.

Not sure if the last code you posted would work as that is going on the basis of breaking party within the instance and riding back. I'd prefer not to do that as it takes extra time to travel back. What I'm doing is
1) WP start in front of Origin
2) Enter Origin
3) Kill LL
4) Walk back and exit Origin
5) Break party
6) Repeat

Here's what I have done so far. I made a starting waypoint file for the healer. Once it detects it's in a party it enters Origin. This works as it should. Once it is fully loaded into Origin it loads the partyhealer WP. This also works. I have it so when it detects the V marker it should load the original starting WP, go to point 3 and exit Origin. This only partially works and is where I'm stuck. It loads the WP like it should but immediately loads the partyhealer WP and gets stuck in a loop. How it is finding the partyhealer WP I do not understand.

Waiting for party before entering
We changed the option 'MAX_TARGET_DIST' from '201' to '50'.

Waypoint #3 is closer then #1. Hence we start with waypoint #3.

Exiting Origin <-- How on earth did it reload partyhealer?

Here's the code
Party.lua

Code: Select all

      if (not player.Battling) then
      
         if icon == 5 and stopfollow ~= true then
         cprintf(cli.yellow,"\n 	Exiting Origin\n")
         loadPaths("farmLLhealer");
         end

farmLLhealer.xml

Code: Select all

	<onLoad>
	local zoneid = RoMScript("GetZoneID()")
	if zoneid == 4 then
	cprintf(cli.yellow,"\n 	Waiting for party before entering\n")
	__WPL:setWaypointIndex(1);
	else
	cprintf(cli.yellow,"\n 	Exiting Origin to reset instance\n")
	__WPL:setWaypointIndex(3);
	end
		changeProfileOption("MAX_TARGET_DIST", 50)
	</onLoad>
	<!-- #  1 --><waypoint x="-11724" z="8629" y="118" tag="llstart">
yrest(10000);
repeat
yrest(2000)
until RoMScript("GetNumPartyMembers()") > 0
__WPL:setWaypointIndex(__WPL:findWaypointTag("llenter"));
	</waypoint>
	<!-- #  2 --><waypoint x="-11834" z="8641" y="122" tag="llenter">
    waitForLoadingScreen();
    yrest(2000);
    loadPaths("partyhealer");
    cprintf(cli.yellow,"\n 	Loading party healer WP\n")
	</waypoint>

	<!-- #  3 --><waypoint x="707" z="909" y="118" tag="llexit">
waitForLoadingScreen();
yrest(10000);
__WPL:setWaypointIndex(1);
	</waypoint>

partyhealer.xml

Code: Select all

<onload>

	cprintf(cli.yellow,"\n 	Party healer WP loaded\n")

while(true) do

player:lootAll()
PartyHeals()
healing()

end
</onload>

If I use the following code in party.lua it just sits there retargeting.

Code: Select all

      if (not player.Battling) then
      
         if icon == 5 and stopfollow ~= true then
         stopfollow = true
         cprintf(cli.yellow,"\n 	Exiting Origin\n")
         loadPaths("farmLLhealer");
         end

How do I break it out of the partyhealer loop?

Is that a V mark on the mob? I seem to remember Lisa saying that if you mark a mob then kill it, when it respawns it will still be marked if you haven't reused the mark. Maybe that's your problem.

The V mark needs to be on party leader. Healer won't detect it on mobs, also it's unreliable if you set it on the healer.

From first glance it is loading coords #3 of your farmLLhealer.xml because it is closer. So the code checking zone and telling it to use coords #1 either isn't working or the character is still inside?

I am curious why you went with using different WP and linking them together instead of just doing it all in the code section.

Code: Select all

        if icon == 4 and stopfollow ~= true then
         stopfollow = true
         player:moveTo(CWaypoint(-11837, 8644));
waitForLoadingScreen(5)
PartyHeals()
         end

         if icon ~= 4 and icon ~= 3 then
         getNameFollow()
         stopfollow = false
         end

if icon == 3 and stopfollow ~= true then 
         stopfollow = true
         player:moveTo(CWaypoint(-11837, 8644)); -- change coords for exiting
waitForLoadingScreen(5)
repeat
yrest(2000)
until RoMScript("GetNumPartyMembers()") == 0
repeat
yrest(2000)
until RoMScript("GetNumPartyMembers()") > 0
PartyHeals()
end

Set 4 icon to leader when entering instance, set 3 icon to leader when exiting instance.
Make sure your leader checks it is in a party then put 4 icon on itself, then enter instance.
Also make sure PartyHeals() has near the top

Code: Select all

stopfollow = false

Actually you prob don't need the stopfollow in this code at all, I used it in mine because I used a movement key to stop the follow and then wait for the icon to change, without it the code would just keep taking a step back lol

I had tried putting it all in the code, but the healer bot would stop responding completely. Maybe I was doing it wrong. I'll try the code you put in and see what happens but that will have to wait till tomorrow when I get home. Gotta work tomorrow and it's getting late.
