How can I make the Bot assist another Character, that is controlled by myself?

Hello

I've searched everywhere to find a solution for my problem, I think the problem is quite simple.

I just RAFed myself and I want to play the first character, while the 2nd follows and assists my main char, whenever hes in trouble. The thing is, I only have one key and so the Partybot solution doesnt work (since for that I need the bot also running on my main char).

I found an old plugin from regalo that does this, but its from May and doesn't work anymore. All other threads had the same question but mostly about doing dungeon runs, which is not what I want to do, which is why lazyraider wouldn't work.

Thanks for your help

Because i want to do the exact same thing myself. I just started playing MoP, so i have to level my Character of course. So, is there a way that i can level my Main Account by myself and the Bot Account should just follow me, Assist, Accept Quests, loot the Mobs etc. ?
 
you could try something like LazyRaider as it has a feature to follow the party leader around, so that might work for you.
 
Inrego created a plugin pre-MoP that did it better than lazyraider, as LR only moves when not in combat, and doesn't really assist very well.

I updated the plugin to work with the latest HB, but it needs to be manually edited to enter your lead char name (line 49 - can't miss it really). Run it with 'Combat Bot'. Works pretty good - mounts up when the leader mounts, attacks the leaders target, keeps up with the leader etc - it doesn't do any quest accepting/turn-in's though.

Credits to Inrego for originally creating it.

I tried installing that putting it into my Plugins folder and adding a new folder called AssistFollow, but it doesn't show up in the plugin section when I run the bot.
 
Yea I got the same problem it is placed in my plugin folder but cant see it in plugins
 
I thought that was what Party Bot and the Leader plugin did? I could be wrong though because I haven't actually used it before..
 
My Partybot is abit retarded with running around ahead of the leader then running back.,..Pull mobs and die
 
No idea why it's not showing up. Mines in..

HB/Plugins/AssistFollow/AssistFollow.cs

It just works for me....

Post a log, may be some errors in there.

It showed up after a few restarts :P. Problem is now that I don't think it works properly with the new HB update. Can someone confirm this or is it just my client?

I updated the plugin myself (but I haven't tested it). Try this instead. Remember you need to make a folder in your Plugins folder, so the path is: Honorbuddy/Plugins/AssistFollow/AssistFollow.cs

It doesn't have any healing built-in, but if your combat routine heals other players you should be fine. It will halt any movement while you're casting so it will not interrupt your heals.
Maybe it's worth noting that I implemented logic to make the follower follow you over edges. If you jump down over an edge, it will follow you instead of running around. I found it useful for many instances where people take shortcuts, and HB wanted to take the "safe way" by navigating there.

Just gonna give an option ( the way i do it if i am playing at least 1 char )

Get Keyclone

Wizard setup to open 2 wow

Setup macros like:( is 1 3 lines macro btw )

/assist yourplayedchar
/cast desiredspell
/follow yourplayed char

Have fun.
 
Why get keyclone when assistfollow does the same thing? :)
 
quick question about this: i wanna change the player it follows, and the code is if (player.Name.Equals("Player Name")), so if i wanted to change it to follow a player called Angryorc, would the code be if (player.Name.Equals("Angryorc")) or if (player.Name.Equals(Angryorc))? For some reason it always just follows the first person in my group, rather than the name i put in....
 
You should try Multibox Suite. Works perfectly for me. Open two instances of WoW with the two characters you want to level. Create a party with whichever character you want to play as the leader. Open honorbuddy on the other character and run the bot multibox follower with a blank profile, that character will now run around after your main character, turn in and accept quests the main character does (Edit: actually I think it just interacts with the quest giver, with an addon called kAutoQuest it'll then accept and turn in the quests), loot quest items, attack whatever the main character is attacking using whichever CC you choose. It's perfect, you can configure it to manually select who you want it to follow by editting the MBoxFollowerBot.cs file on line 47 change private bool ManualLeader = false; to true. Now the leader will be whoever your character has selected when the bots started. I've used this bot to level multiple characters to 80 on RAF, works well through dungeons if the follower is a DPS, simply attacks the target you are and nobody is any the wiser.
