There's this new event (since the 4.0.5 patch) in Tergothen bay. Lasts 18 minutes and you have to make red "!" quests to collect point. The one with most points earns 35 red shells.
Then there's a 2 minute cooldown. And it starts again.

Thing is: Hero stats costs 210 red shells and Crimson stats cost 150.
Meaning that if you reach 1st place for two hours (6 events), you get a random Hero stat (210 red shells).

This is much faster than DOD, where you can get 240 mementos an hour (1 minute per run). (480 in 2 hours) (In normal mode.)

Of course it is much more convenient if you have 3 or 4 characters farming dod, which will multiply the income x4, but you can leave afk players in tergothen bay and they will get red shells too. I have earn myself aprox. 50 red shells in 10 hours.

You only get the 35 shells if the 6000 is reached within the time limit, if not then you get like 4 shells.

Your calculations assume you win every time. On my server I am lucky to get 3rd place because people use teleport to go from quest giver to quest giver to hand in more quests and get more points. Event itself lasts less then 1 minute during busy periods.

Botting this event would get you a maximum of 2 quests to hand in if same NPC, so you are looking at maybe 600 points and busy periods 600 points won't even get you 3rd place.

Also the event quests are opened up by doing normal quests first. When you first arrive you will have 4 NPC with event quests.

So I guess it will depend on your server to whether it is worthwhile trying to do the event.

how would i get my character to click the prisoner cages? thats only part im stuck on, thanks!

start bot using

Code: Select all

rom/getid

and then point your mouse at the object, if you look at Micromacro window you will see an ID for that object.

Then you can use this in your WP

Code: Select all

player:target_Object(ID)

obviously using the objects ID you got earlier where the code has ID.

Hello, remeber me from DoD Farming Concept? I think the same as you do. Farming the red Shells by our Bots can be more profitable. So i make the Quests at the Torog Caravane. No other players there to detect my Bot. My Question is how to get the bot wait until you have completetd parts of the Quests. My bot want to run to the Npc to complete the Quest. But he should complete all others first and wait until the Event starts again before he talks to the Npc´s. Unfortenatly i destroyed my Waypoint in a fit of rage. I get nuts if the Bot does what he want and not what i have coded. Its sounds strange, but its like im my KS-WP. I told my Mage to use NOT Flame until he reaches the first Boss. But, now and then he make Flame cast to kill the Mobs

Its harmless, he does 95% what i want him to do, only somtimes he had an independent existence/ a life of its own. But in my Profile or WP´s are no entry to do him so -.-

Begin and end of that public encounter is announced by some client/lua-event.
I dont know wich one though

It's not "SYSTEM_MESSAGE" for sure.

Hello,

in the new content near the Shadow Daily the mobs drop ( The Ants ) some Arrow Head with a Public Event within. In german Letztes Glück/ Last Luck?!. Ive searched Romdatabase and Buffed and didnt found the correct Item name or Questname, but i´ll think you know what i mean. So this quest gives about 450 points. I would be easy to win the event and rip off MANY valueable Items for Justice Points. BUT

you have to right click on the Arrowheads ( should be no problem to code that, even for me

) and then a popup apperars little story and where to go. My question is how to accept this kind of quest? Daylie Notes wont work, because you dont have a npc to talk to accept to end the quest in the cave . I have a working event timer from the flame event. Thats no problem.

Posted: **Tue Oct 02, 2012 10:30 pm**

Popup window? Try this: http://www.theromwiki.com/API:StaticPopup_OnClick

I haven't been able to find this quest. Can you give a coord or better location? NPC name?

Posted: **Wed Oct 03, 2012 12:18 am**

Quests that come from items are called border quests. They have their own accept command
http://www.theromwiki.com/API:AcceptBorderQuest

So use

Code: Select all

RoMScript("AcceptBorderQuest()")

Use the normal complete quest commands to complete the quest.

So i tried to create a WP for the Event. Naturally it wont work

Code: Select all

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?><waypoints type="TRAVEL">
<onload>
               
        YourTargetScore = 3100

   function waitForEventStart()
      repeat
         yrest(1000) -- check every second
         local namePE,messagePE,namePH,ScorePE,Count , IsScoreVisible= RoMScript("PE_GetInfo(1)")
         if Count == 2 and YourTargetScore > ScorePE then break end
      until false
   end

   function isEventFinished()
       local namePE,messagePE,namePH,ScorePE,Count , IsScoreVisible= RoMScript("PE_GetInfo(1)")
       if Count ~= 2 or ScorePE >= YourTargetScore then
         __WPL:setForcedWaypointType("RUN")
         __WPL:setWaypointIndex(__WPL:findWaypointTag("Home Base"));
      end
   end

</onload>

	<!-- #  1 --><waypoint x="-2705" z="-17946" y="810">
   	queststate = getQuestStatus("Letztes Gl\129ck");
    	while queststate == "incomplete" do
      	yrest(100);inventory:useItem("Pfeilspitze mit graviertem Namen");yrest(100);
	RoMScript("AcceptBorderQuest()")
      	queststate = getQuestStatus("Letztes Gl\129ck");
      	end
               if (isEventFinished()) then
               __WPL:setWaypointIndex(__WPL:findWaypointTag("Home Base"));
      	end	
	player:target_NPC("Myan Kellas");
	</waypoint>
	<!-- #  3 --><waypoint x="-2705" z="-17946" y="810" tag="Home Base">
       waitForEventStart()
      __WPL:setForcedWaypointType("NORMAL")           
	</waypoint>
</waypoints>

It will not get the quest from the item.
I cant take it -.- what is wrong, all semms to be right?!

Edit: I change the WP to

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?><waypoints type="TRAVEL">
<onload>

YourTargetScore = 3100

function waitForEventStart()
repeat
yrest(1000) -- check every second
local namePE,messagePE,namePH,ScorePE,Count , IsScoreVisible= RoMScript("PE_GetInfo(1)")
if Count == 2 and YourTargetScore > ScorePE then break end
until false
end

function isEventFinished()
local namePE,messagePE,namePH,ScorePE,Count , IsScoreVisible= RoMScript("PE_GetInfo(1)")
if Count ~= 2 or ScorePE >= YourTargetScore then
__WPL:setForcedWaypointType("RUN")
__WPL:setWaypointIndex(__WPL:findWaypointTag("Home Base"));
end
end

</onload>

<waypoint x="-2705" z="-17946" y="810">
inventory:useItem("Pfeilspitze mit graviertem Namen");yrest(100)
RoMScript("AcceptBorderQuest()")
queststate = getQuestStatus("Letztes Gl\129ck");
while queststate == "incomplete" do
yrest(100);inventory:useItem("Pfeilspitze mit graviertem Namen");yrest(100);
RoMScript("AcceptBorderQuest()")
queststate = getQuestStatus("Letztes Gl\129ck");
end
if (isEventFinished()) then
__WPL:setWaypointIndex(__WPL:findWaypointTag("Home Base"));
end
player:target_NPC("Myan Kellas");
</waypoint>
<waypoint x="-2705" z="-17946" y="810" tag="Home Base">
waitForEventStart()
__WPL:setForcedWaypointType("NORMAL")
</waypoint>
</waypoints>

But want accept the Border quest. And i want to end the quest via Daylie Notes to prevent me from complicated scripts

The timer is working he will start when the envent begins open the border quest, but won´t accept it. And the NPC to end the quest is Myan Kellas.

Edit: Now i have made the WP like this

Code: Select all

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?><waypoints type="TRAVEL">
<onload>

YourTargetScore = 3100

function waitForEventStart()
repeat
yrest(1000) -- check every second
local namePE,messagePE,namePH,ScorePE,Count , IsScoreVisible= RoMScript("PE_GetInfo(1)")
if Count == 2 and YourTargetScore > ScorePE then break end
until false
end

function isEventFinished()
local namePE,messagePE,namePH,ScorePE,Count , IsScoreVisible= RoMScript("PE_GetInfo(1)")
if Count ~= 2 or ScorePE >= YourTargetScore then
__WPL:setForcedWaypointType("RUN")
__WPL:setWaypointIndex(__WPL:findWaypointTag("Home Base"));
end
end

</onload>

<!-- # 1 --><waypoint x="-2705" z="-17946" y="810">
inventory:useItem("Pfeilspitze mit graviertem Namen");yrest(1000);
RoMScript("AcceptBorderQuest()")
player:target_NPC("Myan Kellas");
if (isEventFinished()) then
__WPL:setWaypointIndex(__WPL:findWaypointTag("Home Base"));
end
</waypoint>
<!-- # 3 --><waypoint x="-2705" z="-17946" y="810" tag="Home Base">
waitForEventStart()
__WPL:setForcedWaypointType("NORMAL")
</waypoint>
</waypoints>

Is this ok? I mean is if eventfinished at the right place and the other codes, too?
Fortunatley i wont crash MM, so it have to be right?! but the event-timer sometimes disappears and in this case it wont work. Some idea for a invincible timer?

Edit: with tihs WP i will work, but on my server you got only 1-3 seconds to end the quest but in the night when the real players fell asleep you can stay there and make the hole event on your on. I will try it tonight. Stay patient in Germany its 19:18 pm it will take some time

Code: Select all

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?><waypoints type="TRAVEL">
<onload>

YourTargetScore = 3100

function waitForEventStart()
repeat
yrest(1000) -- check every second
local namePE,messagePE,namePH,ScorePE,Count , IsScoreVisible= RoMScript("PE_GetInfo(1)")
if Count == 2 and YourTargetScore > ScorePE then break end
until false
end

function isEventFinished()
local namePE,messagePE,namePH,ScorePE,Count , IsScoreVisible= RoMScript("PE_GetInfo(1)")
if Count ~= 2 or ScorePE >= YourTargetScore then
__WPL:setForcedWaypointType("RUN")
__WPL:setWaypointIndex(__WPL:findWaypointTag("Home Base"));
end
end

</onload>

<!-- # 1 --><waypoint x="-2705" z="-17946" y="810" tag="Home Base">
waitForEventStart()
__WPL:setForcedWaypointType("NORMAL")
inventory:useItem("Pfeilspitze mit graviertem Namen");yrest(2000);
RoMScript("AcceptBorderQuest()")
player:target_NPC("Myan Kellas");
if (isEventFinished()) then
__WPL:setWaypointIndex(__WPL:findWaypointTag("Home Base"));
end
</waypoint>
</waypoints>

100ms might be too short a time to wait for the quest dialog to open. Try a second or 2.

Posted: **Sat Oct 20, 2012 5:59 am**

I think I have almost a working code using the arrowheads, but unfortunately it accepts and turns in the quest good once. Then the window stays open instead of closing and the bot isn't able to accept another quest until the old window is closed. If I press the "Accept Quest" button manually it will clear the window (though the quest won't be accepted again since it's an old window). Im pretty sure if I could get some help to figure out how to close the window in the code, or if someone could fix the function to automatically close that window it would work. Here's the relevant code:

Code: Select all

	<!-- # 16 --><waypoint x="-2704" z="-17940" y="822">
		 repeat
   		        yrest(1000);
    			namePE,messagePE,namePH,ScorePE,Count , IsScoreVisible= sendMacro("PE_GetInfo(1)")
		 until namePH=="Stalemate"
	</waypoint>
	<!-- # 16 --><waypoint x="-2704" z="-17940" y="822" tag="turnin">		
	
			inventory:useItem("Arrowhead Carved with Name");yrest(500)
			RoMScript("AcceptBorderQuest()"); yrest(500)
			player:target_NPC("Myan Kellas");
			CompleteQuestByName("Last Luck"); yrest(100);
				
		namePE,messagePE,namePH,ScorePE,Count , IsScoreVisible= sendMacro("PE_GetInfo(1)")
		if namePH=="Stalemate" then

			if inventory:itemTotalCount("Arrowhead Carved with Name") > 10 then
			 __WPL:setWaypointIndex(__WPL:findWaypointTag("turnin"))
			else
			 __WPL:setWaypointIndex(__WPL:findWaypointTag("killmore"))
			end
		else
		 __WPL:setWaypointIndex(__WPL:findWaypointTag("turnin"))
		end
			
	</waypoint>

...I know it's a bit messy but I do what I can with my limited knowledge of coding

Any help is super appreciated!

Posted: **Sat Oct 20, 2012 6:13 am**

look here http://www.theromwiki.com/API:CloseAllWindows

and with

Code: Select all

RoMScript("");

you will get

Code: Select all

RoMScript("CloseAllWindows()");

Posted: **Sat Oct 20, 2012 6:16 am**

I think the frame might be called 'ScriptBorder'. Try

Code: Select all

RoMScript("ScriptBorder:Hide()")

Posted: **Sat Oct 20, 2012 6:23 am**

Wow that was fast, i'll give em a try, thanks!

Bad news is, RoMScript("CloseAllWindows()"); didnt do anything..
Good news is, RoMScript("ScriptBorder:Hide()") worked like gangbusters!

Thanks!

glad you got it all sorted out, I've started to farm these things, drop rate isn't that great but the respawn of the mobs is awesome. I am just selling them to people at the moment, my chars are still to low of lvl to use them lol
