This log showed People n Places failed to open in time or after 3 tries. Do you have lot of bookmarks?
I have recently noticed that this will cause a rather large delay in opening PnP.
At any rate I'll loosen up the check time on that function and post a update Monday nite.

As long as you know that the people and places are in the correct position, you should be able to test if its open or not. I would always recommend leaving people and places open when macroing mainly because it optimizes the mining process.

This is how i setup my macros based on people and places:
Position 1) Mining Field
Position 2) 15K Jet Can behind station (so you warp and dock directly into station)
Position 3) Station itself, so you can dock instantly.

With the above, it controls the whole route of your mining macro and if the route changes, it doesnt matter, it will still work in any mining field, in any space not matter the distance between the station and the asteriod field.

The problem post previous relates to setup of MaxCote. MaxCote does a full auto setup. The script tries to open PnP, checks to see if it opened, and if not retrys 3 times, then exits the game and attempts to relog on.

MaxCote only uses a optional docking bookmark. It was designed to use PnP to warp to various belts depending on rather or not roids are present, any ships/rats, etc. Since MaxCote was initially designed with Coldwar in mind and rat evasion being number 1, PnP setup was critical.
I now consider this method out of date but since it works I'm not changing it.

actually i dont have any more than 3 bookmarks, all in original without subfolders. Seems just strange that when the pnpwindow appears the cursor start switching between two places a couple of times, then exits the game.

After trying MaxCote this afternoon I encountered no issues, so I looked over your log a tad closer. Macro went south earlier. You had too much lag during log-on and a attemtp was made to close Eve. That failed and the macro merrily continued on its way, thus the wrong mousemoves.

Of course when macro told Eve to close it should have and that is a bug.
Of more importance is how your connecting, I hope not dial up, no one has tested dial up. If not dialup then you just had a long login delay and macro should have relogged. I'll fix that. In the mean I suspect if you remove tha maxCote.ini and rerun it will be fine, unless you have serious lagg all the time...

Thats even more strange since im sitting on a high speed (2mbit) DSL connection. Every try i made was without any other traffic too, so it shouldnt have been a problem.

whats likely to cause it to login my alt instead of the correct character even though you specify the correct name along with the login and passowrd?

also it runs the intro movie...its that correct behaviour for a first run or should the macro cancel it? (THIS HAPPENS WITH CLEAR CACHE OPTION)

the macro does not seem to set the game to 1024x768 windowed so it loads in full screen

Seem to have got round these(clear cache off)..now it logs in click mid top left, minimises chat, clicks agents, clicks p&p a few times then closes the game and reloads it..over and over

Both your issues are lag related..if you want, turn on the log function as explained elesewhere. Delete maxcote.ini, rerun macro and a few seconds after you notice the problem stop the macro ( you did setup a shortcut key,right? ) open the log file, search for and remove your user id, password and character name then send me the log via PM please.

Clear cache MUST be ON during a setup run. Before restarting macro after ONE successful run please edit the MaxCote.ini file to make clear cache NO. Capilization makes a difference..

When i run the program via hotkey or the macro program nothing happens. While watching it in the macro program screen i see that after i click run, it runs for like 15 seconds before just closing. Nothing happens the whole time.

Time Zone auto logoff criteria is being met most likely.

You have got the setup screen to come up right?

If not, then do you have Eve in a unusually named folder?

yes and i got it to run last night but now it has the same problem

Both user name and password is CaSe sensitive!!! I found that out after the first time or 2!!

ZX

The macro set ups all fine.But when the ship left the station the macro makes settings in the overview.After that the macro log out and quit the game.Why?
Auto log off is set to off.I hope someone can help me?

Something in overview setup failed, delete maxcote.ini and rerun script. If problem occurs a second time, delete maxcote.ini again, turn on log feature for before and after, run script again to point of failure them edit log to remove your account info (search for it) and send it to me via PM please.

How's the new version coming along ? The current doesn't work on my widescreen notebook :(
