Hi,
since a few days I try to get the computer shutdown function of the bot working. It looks like this in my profile:
Code: Select all
<!-- Log out and resurrect settings -->
<option name="LOGOUT_TIME" value="X" /> <!-- in minutes, 0 = timer disabled -->
<option name="LOGOUT_SHUTDOWN" value="true" />
<option name="LOGOUT_WHEN_STUCK" value="true" />
<option name="CLOSE_WHEN_STUCK" value="false" />
<option name="RES_AFTER_DEATH" value="true" />
<option name="MAX_DEATHS" value="10" /> <!-- Log out after this many deaths -->
As X I set a specific period in minutes. So normally it should logout/close runes of magic and then shutdown my computer. I've tried it often and the last days I tried it with a value of 1-5 so I don't have to wait long to see if it works. Sometimes it logs out, sometimes not. Sometimes he logs out with a message like "auto-logout: value of 4 is bigger than the logout-time value of 1". I don't understand why he logs out 3 minutes too late. And he never shuts down my computer.
What could be the reason why he can't shutdown or logout?

Do you mean?
Code: Select all
Elapsed time 4 greater then scheduled time 1. We will logout.
That's the normal message you get when it logs out. As to why it is 3 minutes late, I'm not sure. I expect it could be a bit late if doing something else such as moving to a waypoint or fighting but 3 minutes is excessive. Maybe you have a loop in you code somewhere that takes a long time to complete.
You said

tells me that when it doesn't log out you don't get a message. Is that right? Maybe it's getting stuck in that 3 minute loop. What is your character usually doing when you want it to log off?
As to why it doesn't shut down the computer maybe the shutdown command doesn't work or maybe it's a permission problem. Do you have administrative access to your computer? Have you tried starting micromacro with administrator access?

Yes this is the message.

I've got the adminstrative access to my computer. I think this could be, I usually need the logout shutdown function when I farm the first boss in DoD or when I do public event quests in the new zone. When I use the bot for public events he checks every second for the event start. So I think it's because of the loop. I've tried it in DoD and it logged out successfully. Then the only problems are to get the logout working while I do public events and then finally shutdown my computer.

All you have to do is make sure the bot gets control at some point. If the bot goes to a waypoint then it will have control when doing so.
Or if you like, you can check for logout in your loops. Just add
and if it runs out of time it will log out.

Ok, I've added it to the loop and it works fine now
The only problem is the shutdown function. Maybe it's broken? Or are there any reasons why it doesn't work?

Firstly, do you get the message that it is shutting down the system?
If so then that would confirm that it is a problem with the shutdown command.
I tested it out from the commandline and it worked. Maybe you should test it out on your system.
Start the commandline waypoint and type this.
Code: Select all
os.execute("\"%windir%\\system32\\shutdown.exe -s -t 30\" ")

Um, I don't get it working with the bot itself. But while I searched for a programm to do this I found one. I don't know if it only works with windows 7, but here it is. Problem is solved.

Why download a program ?
Just type [windows]+[R], "cmd"
and : shutdown /f /s /t [TimeInSecond]
It's what I do every evening... And what I've just do at the moment.
