By default the 'NearestPC' key is F7, the NearestNPC key is F8, the reason it was set to F7 was to check for a player already harvesting the node. Using F8 will break the "AvoidPlayer" functionality. I suggest you change it back and update your documentation to reflect this.

After I changed it back to F7 the bot worked like a champ. Use F7 instead of the recommended F8.

sorry about the f7 i thought that was for targeting the mobs i apoligise for that i never used the avoid players feture
pleas tell me if i messed up on anything els i just want to help out some make it a little bit easyer to under stand

if you aprove the help file i made ill start adding screen shots to it and every thing

Here is the fixed document and ini

Avoid Players should be on by default, bots do not want to attract attention and nothing pisses harvesters off more than someone coming up and harvesting their node. Great way to get them to send a message to a GM and attract attention to your bot.

If you include the service in the archive then the archive has to be updated about once a month when the service is updated. I suggest NOT packaging it with the bot.

Since I am no longer the maintainer of this bot you need to talk to psouza, these are just my suggestions.

Ok so the bot starts, I get him to run round the forrest ruins, hell I even get him to harvest.

BUT after an event (going up a skill point, or finding something) he just stands there. The status will say 'harvesting creature den ......' and no more.

I have attached my ini file I you all could please tell me where I am going wrong it would be great.

I know im gonna sound dumb.... But im a working man and know next to nothing about computers. I tried the walkthru by Atmosfesrrsve, but get stuck at the beginning when i have to download EQ@service.xui. Is it possible to make a walkthru for seriously computer handicapped people like me. I'm a solid player in game. 2 lev 50 characters 1 50 TS, i put in long hours in game and a harvest bot would be nice. please if you can help

Can some one post a little FAQ how to set up this bot step by spet? or link to topic where can read about this

Thank You!

Bot stopped working this morning with the update was just wondering if anyone else is having a problem with it or if it is just me

Deleted duplicate

There seems to be a bug in the waypoint navigation. I can get things working fine if I tolerate really loose/relaxed movement, but the script does not work well to hit specific waypoints before moving on.

For example:
Move to waypoint 1, find some rocks, harvest, find more, go harvest, etc.
Program decides to move to waypoint 2, moves a few steps, then decides to go to waypoint 3, few more steps, then waypoint 4, etc. This can get bad when waypoint 4 is now behind a mountain that waypoints 2 and 3 were directing you around.

The problem seems to be in FindNextMoveToLocation. If I understand the logic correctly, if no resource is found, we pick the next waypoint. There should be a forced check to make sure that we are AT the previous waypoint before this happens. If we're not there yet, and there is no resource, then direct the movement back at the existing waypoint.

I think this is what some of the relaxed/strict/direct settings are supposed to be doing, but the code as currently written doesn't seem to care if I have my entire route as direct with strict settings; it still skips to the next waypoint too early.

The program counts 'rough opaline' as a 'Rough Opal' rare.
