HarvestBot 311 : EverQuest 2 Premium Discussions - Page 3

What were you using? 10? It wasn't missing nodes, they were out of range! I use a min of about 15 except for very VERY tight situations.

Thanks, it's nice to hear that you guys are enjoying the bot instead of just the problems with it for a change. 8^)



Yup, you found a bug, one that lead me to fix another bug too, thanks. (See changelog below)



I have repeatedly asked for features that people want, beleive it or not you're the first to request one, see changelog.



I just searched my code for the phrase "No resources" and came up blank, obviously I have altered that code so maybe I fixed it inadvertantly for next release. What is the frequency of this problem?



Nope, I've noticed the same thing, I did change the evade routines but they still need tweeking *sigh*. I have tried to remove the 'botlike' things the bot does and one of them was jumping over and over trying to get past an obsticle, it now jumps once, then turns to one side then to the other but with no jumps. Guess I need to work on the timing.



Hehehe, perfection never happens in coding, the best you can hope for is rare bug reports. 8^)

New ChangeLog for next version:

Was a Fix ever found for the Walking backwards?
I Tried both on my Pent4 and AMD, Thought maybe it was an AMD issue.

Yup, I think it's in this thread? You didn't post to the thread without even reading it did you? You would not expect me to spend the time to find it for you would you?

Sheesh

Let me think...
Yeap I read the thread.

I tried all the suggestions and it didnt help any unless I didnt let the Bot go long enough. It looked as if it was in autrun constantly...
Another thing that I noticed that the INI doesnt mention in wehat order you need to have the harvesting keys set. I figured that out.
I have the Script running great on my Pentium4 but like I said the AMD 64 is giving me problems

Exactly what range are we talking about? movetorange?
because if so its set to 8 by default.

MaxWander is the range from the waypoint x,y location that will be searched for resources, this is the range we were talking about. MovetoRange as you call it or RuntoRange as it's actually called is the distance from an x,y location that we have to reach before 'we are there' and stop running.

Hmm, Im starting a bad habit, here is the entry from the INI file

;RunToRange = 8 How close do we get to a what we are running to before we
; stop and consider ourselves 'there'.
; Use caution playing with this.

PS. I rechecked in case I was mistaken and it IS in this thread, continuing my bad habit... I'm going to have to change that.

I am also having problems with the script crashing while "moving on...."

Things that may help identify the problem...

1. It happens the very first time it "moves on"
2. The buff countdown timer stops moving instantly.
3. FPS drops to about 2 FPS until DX crashes. maybe running out of memory? Very simular to a bug in DFC zone and memory leaks.

I have done some VB and Turbo Pascal programming. without seeing code hard to see whats happening...but from the outside it looks like maybe its entering some type of loop until memory resources run out....Just my 2cp

I set debug to 10 and ran the script. nothing looks out of the ordinary...Not wanting to post the WHOLE thing here is the last bit.

If there is anything I can do to help test ect let me know.
Hope this helps and keep up the great work.

The frequency is after the first or second harvest.

OK, I have good news for anyone with the "moving on..." crash problem.

After realizing this isnt .exe code and I can look at it duh...hehe

I decided to look into the crash problem myself cuz it was driving me crazy.

The problem seams to happen when the "sub FindNextMoveToLocation" subroutine is executed. To avoid this routine use waypoints in your .ini file instead of "wander" mode. Its a quick workaround until the watcher can dig into this further.

Hope this helps

There are no waypoints in The enchanted Lands, what do you reccomend?

I have the same probelms. The first one beingthe crashing because of dx9 and the other bing the running backwards glitch. I have everything updated. I'm using 3.12 when I start the bot, my char immediatly runs backwards and starts jumping. I remapped the keys in EQ and in the harvester ini file to no avail. Hope this helps a little. I'll post the log a little later.

Thanks

You didn't think they magically appeared did you? Make a route and maybe share it with the group?

Umm, nobody mentioned that this happened when NOT using waypoints, that's a HUGE clue. I'll look again.

Wow totally didnt expect that responce, thanks...


I barely know how to run the program let alone make a route.

Thanks agian.

Glad to help, Sorry I couldnt look into it further "The Wife" and I had plans.
