Trouble rev655

Hello! :)
After rev655 i have some problems. A lot of files such as addresses.lua, update.lua, database folder etc etc. got a red symbol instead the green check. I used SVN revert on all the file, and they finally got this green check. But it does not work. Here a screen of my problem.
bot.png
When the profile has been loaded, the bot try to use the icon wich i marked blue. But the macro is placed on icon with number 0. If i place the macro from 0 to blue icon (f9) the pg only write something like "1234;Chatframe1:AddMessage("Macro test etc etc.
What i should do?
Good news! Addresses.lua has lost the green check and got the red! :?
Sorry for my bad bad english, i hope wich someone understand and help me :D

The bot no longer uses a macro key on the action bar instead it has taken over the function that toggles whether title/guild icons are shown on the players. So the bot uses the key for that function. By default it is F9 but you are using F9 for the upper actionbar.

Try going to the "Key Binding" in the system menu and clicking "Defaults". If you have "Extra Action Bars" installed, try removing it.

If addresses.lua icon turns red again after you "Reverted" it then stop running rom/update. If you aren't running rom/update then you are using a script to start the bot and it has the 'update' argument in it. Remove the 'update' argument.

Done, but it still doesn't work. What you means for "Extra Action Bars"?

"Extra Action Bars" is an addon. If you don't know what I'm talking about then you don't have it installed.

So what happened? When you pressed "Default" did the F2-F9 hotkeys disappear from the action bar? What happens when you run the bot now?

There is a revision 655. I clicked that link and got 655. That page just might not have been updated yet when you tried it.

Exactly the hotkeys f2 f9 disappear. In the key bindings interface the f9 key is associated to show title/guild or something like this :)
The bot loads the profile, but it stuck in the same point of the screen wich i posted before.

Did you copy the 'ingamefunctions' folder to the games 'interface/addons' folder? It's changed so needs to be updated.

Also do player names flash on and off when trying to start the bot?

Still a lot of crashes and its got to do with the way the memory is stored when the bot is looting as all my crashes are during a loot period.

How many clients you running bobdole, I haven't seen any posts from people crashing in millers since 655.
Did you do full svn update and svn revert?
Did you get the new speed hack?
Did you try following the steps I posted? here
Are you sure that there isn't an update.lua being used when you start the bot.

Not sure what else to try. Maybe just do a complete new folder and set up svn again, redownload latest userfunctions and WP. Use default profile.

Prior to patch, I could run 9 clients with little issues. Since patch I can run 3 without crashes. Trying your suggestions.

Update: Tried all the suggestions and nothing stops the crashes, now with this latest revision (657) I can only run one bot for more then 5 minutes.

Note: Only area I have not changed since the patch are my 3 userfunctions: QuestByName, setwindow, and teleport, you think the crashes are due to one of them?

Also with this latest revision (657): The crashes are always @ the Feedbag. It appears that maybe if 2 bots end up getting feed @ the feedbag at the same time one will crash.

Damn I was hoping the latest revision would help. I really thought the memory freezing was causing the problems but with it only freezing for a fraction of a second now, I thought it would work better.

First off: I am sorry to be such a pain in the ass, you guys are amazing with the amount of time and energy you put in to this project and I am very thankful to all of you but yes it appears the latest update has made the crashes far worse and not better. I am happy to test ideas on the fly if you want to post code changes to test. I think the memory freezing is a problem when more then one bot is doing the same function at the same time and that causes the crashes, which makes me wonder if this is a issue with the revisions or the miller script it self?

What if I have several versions of this running in there own directories, could that lessen the crashes? lol

Update: doesn't stop the crashes.

I'll load up half a dozen today in millers and see what happens for me. I don't normally do millers at all unless testing.

rev 656 = 3 Bots if I am lucky.
rev 657 = Not even one bot will run more then 30 mins.
