Housemaid pots/food (over)use

[Edamh]

Anyone else notice that housemaid pots/food are being overused? That is, the bot does not seem to check to see if buff for housemaid food/pots is still present before using same. I ran through a stack of Unbridled Enthusiasm pots in a matter of 30 minutes when I expected them to last 12+hours.

Has there been an update to the useGoodie function? I don't see one in the thread. Granted, I took a break over the summer so I haven't been on recently, but iirc the useGoodie function was working last week before this week's patch.


EDIT: I watched the bot some more, and the Unbridled Enthusiasm buff seems to be cleared at the end of the battle. Here's my end of battle code; I don't see anything that should be clearing that buff.

Code: Select all

         file:write("Date: "..os.date().." scout")
         file:close();

anything in useGoodie that might clear it?

Maybe the mob has a skill to remove the buff. Or maybe there is something in the profile.

god speed will cancel each other out you can only use those buffs same with the attack foods

Hello,

i recognized that usegoodie sometimes make trouble using some bufffood. Sometimes my bot will use all the time until its empty. I have all goodies in my onleavecombat section im my profile. For the bufffood that my bot keep eating, ill use the player:updatebuffs function on the 1 wp or when i enter instances. For example:

<!-- # 17 --><waypoint x="4714" z="824" y="679" type="TRAVEL">
changeProfileSkill("MAGE_PURGATORY_FIRE","InBattle", true,"Autouse", true)
changeProfileSkill("MAGE_FLAME","InBattle", false,"Autouse", false)
changeProfileOption("QUICK_TURN", true);
player:updateBuffs()
if not player:hasBuff("Grenzenloser Enthusiasmus") then
inventory:useItem(207200);
end
yrest(500)
player:updateBuffs()
if not player:hasBuff(506687) then
inventory:useItem(207203);
end
yrest(500)
player:updateBuffs()
if not player:hasBuff("Klarer Gedanke") then
inventory:useItem(207202);
end

But sometimes MM wont accept the name and i have to use Id´s. But one of them are always working. There a better Solutions i think, but its not very difficult and its works for me. Perhaps you´ll try it.

Good Luck

As far as I can tell the only way UseGoodie will use up all your food is if the buff id is wrong, which they shouldn't be after all this time, or the actual name of the buffs have changed. Either way, you can always specify the item name and buff yourself overriding the default ones. That way it will only take one line to do it vs the 3 lines you use.

But you are also correct. That code is very simple and functional. In fact that's the way I prefer to do it. Although you don't need to update the buffs as they are updated as part of the 'hasBuff' function.
