~Zoning~ Harvest Bot : EverQuest 2 Premium Discussions

I am currently working on modifying the harvest bot so we can use it in instanced zones like Cove of Decay and have it zone out when no more resources are found, zone back in, then run back to the middle of zone and continue harvesting.

I am currently testing this in Blood Skull Valley because I dont have Cove of Decay access just yet, I should later today.
Here are a few of the issues I am having with it not working so far:

1.) When I tell it to "NavigateXY oServiceObject,-7.27,-48.26" it doesnt run to the door, it trys to run into the wall. What am I doing wrong when trying to get it to run to a loc? I tested this out in the middle of commonlands and could NOT get it to run back to the exact spot i had /loc after I had moved and started the Navigate function.

2.) The mouse click does it at position 600,500 which works for me, but it might not work for people using other resolutions / screen sizes. Is there a way to find the coordinates for the exact middle of peoples screens?

I am not a coder and I really dont know what I'm doing.. this is just how I thought it would work in my head and if any of you more skilled members can help me refine/rewrite this to get it working it would be MUCH appreciated. Imagine constant harvesting in T4 zone with no danger and constant harvestable nodes!

wow, looks like you are doing good. Keep up the great work! If you could get this working.. it would be AWESOME!!!

Anyone?

I beleive you can hit the "U" button to open doors instead of clicking them.

also, might be good to grab the latest harvester codebase (with waypoints, etc) and go from there.

ok, do you see anything wrong with this wyrv or how we could get it to work better?

Honestly I havnt looked at it.

I suggest PM'ing the authors that have updated the harvester before.

simucal, send me an IM when I am on, need some info from you...

what we need is a way to interact with objects without having to 'click' on them- I was working on a simple macro for somthing similar (but unrelated) to this, but ran into problems due to the fact that if another player happened to be standing between me and the object, I clicked on that player rather than the object.

What object are you wanting to interract with?

And how?

I mean resources can be targeted and then a button hit to gather from it.

What more are you wanting?

Some of these instances have reuse timers... CoD is 12 hrs for example.

You are incorrect about that, I zone in and out of CoD now, over and over.

The object we need to interact with is the door to zone.

can the door be tabbed to be targeted?



Also, did the "U" button not work? It might be another button, but I thought it was "U" in eq1.

its F in EQ2 and no doors cannot be tabbed to so there really is no way to know exactly where it is besides running right up to it and brute forcing alot of screen locs and checking zoning bool.

My recommendation would be to set it up for specific instances with location to zone from, direction to face, mousemove so it is near the top of the screen, and then send F key for *use item*.
Logic:
manually walk to zone in loc and face the door
script memorizes
mousemove and {F} to use door
wait for zone in
memorize loc and direction of door (direction from item list)
.loop
...find nearest node
...walk to node
...{ESC} 'to clear target
....loop
......{TAB}
......while node != nearest node name
....loop x6 'reasonable number of harvest attempts
....Harvestkey 'key appropriate to node type
.Until nextnode = null
return to exitpoint


I've found all nodes harvestable in Cove of Decay, but if your instance of choice has unreachable nodes, throw in appropriate node elimination code.
