I'm re-posting this Plugin by echelon17 originally posted here:
http://www.thebuddyforum.com/honorbuddy-forum/plugins/uncataloged/46825-plugin-loot-fixer.html
NOTE: See original thread for details as to why it was created and why it was eventually removed. And don't expect the author or me to support this plugin.
Regardless of the reasons for it's removal, I believe it to be a solid fix to the bot-like activity of running away after a kill and running back after the bot belatedly discovers that the body has loot available.
HOW TO USE THIS PLUGIN:
Simply drop this file into the HB > Plugins folder
Start HB, enable LootFixer and click the Recompile All button
Make certain that the in-game Auto Loot is ENABLED
Also make sure that HB Enhanced Mode setting is ENABLED and under Settings & Tools, Loot Mobs is ENABLED.
Also under Bot Config, Ground mount farming mode is DISABLED
It's always a good idea when testing a new plugin to see if it works for your needs, to disable all other plugins. Some plugins may not play nicely with others in your collection. So before you whine and complain about how this plugin or a custom class, or a certain profile is not working properly, try these easy steps:
1) Install a fresh up-to-date Honorbuddy in a new folder, separate from your existing HB install containing loads of CC's, profiles and plugins and likely dated settings files.
2) Go into the CustomClasses folder and delete everything except your one favorite custom class for the toon you'll be using with this test
3) Go into the Plugins folder and delete all plugins except the one you will be testing with.
4) Start HB and run Grind Bot in this case. It should automatically load your one and only custom class.. no need to select one of the many you may normally have.
5) Click the Plugins button and make certain your plugin is enabled.
6) Load your favorite GB profile and start the bot
With this clean install you should get a good working bot doing what it's supposed to be doing. That is IF your plugin, profile, and custom class are bug free. But this certainly narrows the problem for you and possibly anyone willing to help you resolve said problem.
I've found that having a separate HB install for each and every toon and spec has resolved many issues for me. It may take more space on your hard drive, and yes you need to update each install separately. But having a trouble free bot when I need it is priceless. It's the price we pay for utilizing an open source code platform with many different authors attempting to resolve many different botting issues.
Getting back to the issue of echelon17 removing this handy and wonderful addon, I beg his/her understanding that there are some people in this community that appreciates his/her efforts and this plugin. I hope eschelon17 allows this plugin to remain as long as it continues to be a viable solution to the "Oh! I forgot to loot that corpse. Let me run back and get it." problem.
Trust me, this works GREAT in a clean install. In fact my grind seems to have been turbo charged. The loots are nearly instant. So much so, that the body is still falling in some cases and the bot has already looted and is moving on to the next mob or hotspot. Amazing!
Per request of the author I have removed the attached plugin.
My apologies to echelon17 and the community.
