[FLY][A] Cataclysm Dailies AFK [Croga] (99% AFK)

[Croga]

Having issues with "The Bears Up There". My character jumps between level 1 and 2 without grabbing any bears.

Yeah, I noticed that one bugs from time to time. Does that in the Hyjal Quest profile as well. Can you attach a log?

Hey Croga, first I just wanted to say thanks for the amazing dailies profile and addon. I've been running these for about a week now, and it seems that the Therazane dailies bug out about 20% of the time in a couple of different ways:

1) Going to the Therazane portal, my druid and rogue will often just sit floating above the portal on their mounts and won't go through. If I dismount them, they'll zone through and pickup quests.
2) from time to time doing Beneath the Surface / Painite motes / Fear of Boring, the bot will just switch to "moving to hotspot" and run out of the cave and and winds up stuck on the hill just below the throne of Therazane.
There's nothing in the log or debug, it fought a quest mob, Mounted, and ran to the hotspot. The only thing that shows up in Navigation is:
[12:21:36 AM:755] Could not generate full path from {1902.267,3.672723,-168.6457} to {2276.667,-203.3333,611.073} (time used: 4.048 seconds) and from there it'll just sit until it afks out of the game.
3) Taking the portal back from the throne room fails the same way as going through the portal, and once that happens, the bot tries running along the ground back to the temple of earth, completely ignoring everything that it agros until it gets to a point where it can't run any more, stands at a cliff edge and dies.

Is there any way to force a profile to dismount before zoning through? I'm mostly just an HB user and this point, I haven't really started digging into the profiles and what's possible yet. It seems that 2 of the problems could be fixed with a forced dismount before interacting with the portal. As for that second thing... I have no clue

Thanks again, if there's anything I can help with, let me know, I'd love to learn!

Too be honest, I don't care about dailies but I see it gets XP for your guild so, thanks!

I should be able to add a dismount here. Will check later today.

I've noticed this as well. There really isn't anything I can do about this, it's HB behaving badly. Can you report this in Mesh Issues please? That way the devs can check it out.

Should be solvable by the same dismount as #1.

I've updated the SVN. Bot should now dismount correctly before using the portal.

Thanks for letting me know DM!

Thanks Croga!

I'll get a capture of what's going on and post it for the devs as well.

Thanks Croga..


Ive runned this profile for 2 days, on my warrior. Im a little bit puzzled tho because at day one it runned smoothly and the second day its chopping alot when it walks. It used 3 hours to finish Tol Barad.. I dont know why and the log dont say much. Anyhow nice profile. Ive managed to quest with 3 different chars in my guild so my rep will go up by a bar a day

Thanks so much for this.


TIA

 

[Croga]

Hey Tia,

Thanks for the feedback!

The chopping is most likely not a profile issue. As you observed; the first day it ran without trouble.

On the second day; was it WoW looking choppy or just the bot walking, then stopping, then walking again? In that first case you might have been running other programs that made WoW slow. In the second case it could be because there were more people around. In the end there's little we can do about it; sometimes HB is just a bit slower then other times.

You could try disabling as many WOW addons and HB plugins as possible. That should definately improve performance.

Hi Again Croga..

Thanks for answering! This must be the first poster that actually answer!

Anyhow ive figured out that is was that crogaplugin that made the walking chopped up. Everytime i disable it it runs smoothly and but i enable it it chops like never before and takes endless time before the zone gets completed.
PS: Im running no addons on this wow installation. as this is for bots.

Regards,


TIA

I've seen this behavior from time to time, but only in Tol Barad really. The bot will stutter step a lot from time to time, other times it runs smootly, I haven't seen an issue as to why.

2 things I have noticed:
1) The bot will get hung up running to the portal to leave TB depending on the quest rotation, it gets stuck on one of the tents and it won't try to get unstuck as usual, I'll try to get a screencap/logs next time I see it.
2) First 3 firelands dailies get done, then the bot just cycles talking to matoclaw over and over at the shrine of malorne trying to pick up a quest, when its already done the outside 3. Will try to get logs today.

TY again for this great set tho Croga, I really appreciate your work.

ouch.... that's my plugin there

The plugin should only do something in TB if you have the Magnets quest and it isn't finished yet. Otherwise it should just idle.
The big trick is that the plugin is kinda dependent upon your framerate. If you have a low framerate the plugin will slow you down more then if it's high.
I've made a small change that should improve performance for this case. Could you re-SVN and see if that improves it?

I'm afraid Firelands isn't supported by me anymore. I'll leave it in as is but I currently don't have the time to get it up to the quality I'd like it to be.

As for TB; I'll check tomorrow if I can add a waypoint that will lead it around the tent. Shouldn't be too hard.

Thanks both of you for reporting issues. It enables me to perfect these profiles

I will check tomorrow. Ive done the quests today so i cant do them. I run wow with minimum settings because i run 6 bots on one machine. I had to cut it down to 4 due to im leveling my guild so im doing dailies. Thats where your profile comes in Loves it so much. I just wish i could level it a little bit faster and have more chars but im not gonna buy more wow accounts. 13 accounts is more than enough for me to play around with

My pala works smoothylu without that plugin. it even handles the magnets? But i run kicks questing plugins so maybe they know what to do?

TIA

Kick's has a plugin that handles the magnets. Deepholme, however, is a lot slower without my plugin. Even the magnets should run smoother with my plugin, over Kick's version.
Then there's Wildhammer; my changes should improve the Wildhammer dailies.

There may, however, be negative interactions between Kick's magnet and Wildhammer plugins when activated together with mine. You could try disabling Kick's Magnets and Thundermar ale keg plugins. That might solve your problems as well.

Hi.. It finally runs smoothly without chopping so much. Running Tol Barad and its moved to the first quest location within seconds. Just hope it works further out in the profile Ill give feedback as i get them. I committed the changes you made to it last night and i trying it now

 

[owongo]

how about a horde version?

Nope.

Hey m8, plugin i took from the svn didn't load. Works now but you accidentally opened an if-statement with capital I (If) on line 148. Just so you know it loads just fine after that.

Wow, and nobody noticed that for months

Thanks for finding that mate. The SVN has now been updated.

 

[Croga]

Since I completely stopped with everything WoW related, I cannot support this set of profiles anymore.
Consider it orphaned and available for adoption. If anyone wants to download it, the download will stay available indefinitely and if anyone wants to adopt it to make changes, feel free to do so (with the proper credits ofcourse; to Kick and me).

 

[UREG]

Thnx for all the hard work

got stuck in terazan quests on both chars... He just stands and w8t...
