EQ2MegaBot v2.6 - Buff Bot AND HUNTER BOT! Discussion Thread : EverQuest 2 Premium Discussions

markjohnson wrote:First, I'd like to say thanks for making such an awesome program.

I just set it up last night and after a few hours of configuring and reconfiguring I finally got it up and running.

I am using it in solo mode and I am having a lot of trouble staying alive.

My first problem is when it stops fighting to heal, when I regen more power back it won't go into combat mode again. I turned it off and it works better, but then I die because I used up all my power.

I also have a problem with heroics. I can't turn it off it seems. I have to fight heroics. is there something I missed or an easy fix to have it ignore heroic mobs altogether?

also having trouble with looting. it doesn't try to loot the crits or chests at all. I have it set on manual and have the the mouse x,y cordinates entered in, but it doesn't open the chests or loot the bodies. It said in the bot window that I had 1 things to loot. and stuck turning. I'm not sure what that meant, but the log looks fine except for this one error I get occasionally.

Code: Select all

7/27/2005 7:45:11 PM: ERROR: Bad MobDiff returned, something is probably wrong with EQ2Service, just defaulting to zero (0) so the script will run, but you will fight anything in the color you are figting

7/27/2005 7:45:11 PM: Target to FIGHT Found

Also, is there a way to get my manastone to work? it is my favorite treasure as a healer as I can keep casting spells all day long if I'm not taking large amounts of damage.

Keep up the good work and looking forward to 2.7

ps I was just thinking. I tried to add a muck dreg to the things to not attack. maybe that is where the error is coming from. The instructions said to not add anything and that the game will do it for me.

markjohnson about your lewt problem I think I recal reading in the directions that you should have a UI mod that allows you to press enter to lewt, I am at work atm so I don't have the directions handy but that might be an issue, just trying to think of things to help ya out.

Ok this happens no matter what ive tried, i get the error "Cannot open log file c:\program files\sony\everquest II\logs\servername\eq2log_charactername.txt"

When I put both of my characters on auto, the healer is set up to just heal. My necro will have his pet out and the necro is set up to just nuke like crazy until the mob is dead.

The number one reason that I die is that the healer bot targets my pet and is casting heals on my pet (who isnt' taking damage and is at full health) while my necro is beat down until dead. It is a fairly consistent problem and I've been unable to figure out why the healer targets my pet instead of me (especially when there are times that he'll heal the necro just fine).

The only thing I can think of is the new EQ2 code that allows you to hit the function key twice to get somebody's pet? Anyway, is this something that you're aware of? And something that can be fixed? Is there anything I can do to help track this down and fix it? Is anyone else experiencing this?

Let me know if you need further explanation on this.

Thanks!

tault_sirusdv wrote:Hey rich, another interesting feature would be to be able to record a path from evac point / spawn point and run back to corpse / mobs to being fighting again. An option for say when your health drops bellow 10% to have the option to set an Evac key.

aka

1) start script from zone point
2) either use in INI settings or hit RECORD PATH key.
3) run to your hunting spot
4) fight
5) reach 10% HP
6) Call EVAC
7) follow path back to hunting ground starting with nearest waypoint
locate corpse if any and retrieve (stealth key maybe for just this part / the whole run back?)
9) start fighting again.


I ask for this because I set up my script to Send me IMs when I find items and get tells and to SMS me when my character dies. And it gets kinda frusterating not being able to reset this awesome megabot.

yes, I've seen this some since the new code from EQ2 for hitting the function key as a pet/main toggle. Since the code was written before this was in there, there are still targetting places that need to be cleaned up with an Escape() before the targetting. I'm working in 2.7 to clean it up, but thanks for pointing it out, I hadn't noticed it was that bad, but I guess it is.

If there's any way I can help with this (testing out new code, providing logs, etc.), please let me know.

One thought for an added feature that may have been mentioned in the past, but just in case:

You have checks in place for when health dips below a certain percentage and once true we can have a set of actions take place. Could you add the same thing for power? In other words, once power dips below a certain percentage I want to hit my macro button that activates my manastone, or it coule be a potion that I have, or it could be a spell that exchanges my health for power, etc. This would be an awesome addition to the existing functionality that you have.

Thanks again for an amazing program and please take me up on my offer to help if there's anything I can do.
