Ive tried two different bots now and when i run either of them, it just spins me in circles with the A key. I dont know if I messed something up in services while I was looking through it, but im pretty sure the script is wanting to use my W key to move forward.

Im pretty sure I didnt screw anything up. But I wouldnt put it passed myself.

Any ideas?

sounds accurate. Make sure that movement is set with AWSD keys. (US keyboard) if you have some funky keyboard, you will need to tweak the scripts to match the layout of the keys.

Sounds like what happens when vgservice is not reading offsets properly. Delete all files except updatevgextreme and patch. There was a vanguard patch last week that required a new vgextreme update.

just fyi, here's what was happening from a more technical perspective. Before moving, the bot checks your heading, which I believe defaults to 90 if it's not reading properly, and calculates the desired heading, which is most likely not 90, regardless whether the servicer is reading locs properly. It decides you need to turn either left or right to face the correct heading, but since the heading never changes, you spin in circles.
