[BETA] ArchaeologyBuddy - An Archaeology Bot (with flying)

[Nayhaw]

At Jaedenar and Dunemaul there are lots of stuck points. Aswell, water is a killer.

 

[magimoogle]

Blackrock Mountain really breaks this bot good.

Northrend is very broken for the bot. EK somewhat works and Kalimdor is the only thing the author tested.

Btw, you don't need to actually do anything in Northrend unless there's an item there that you specifically want.

SUGGESTION: Increase the distance of a Red Telescope (the thingy you get when you survey ) to 80 yards or close to, there is really no point that it only fly's 45 yards when Red Telescope means 80 yards ;P ...

This bot has gotten me to 525 and on my way to get those few special items.

Just here are the problems that I have been running into that have probably been spoken about.

1. When going into the Mount Hyjal zone it Will get stuck at the base of the cliff surrounding the entire zone. If we could have the bot use flightpoints to get in and out of zones like this I think it would be an ok solution. This is the location it stops at <Hotspot X="3860.277" Y="-1768.162" Z="358.9238" />

2. Some of the digsites in Uldum are stopping at ledges or not navigating to the center of the digsite to start the routine. One is the Neferset digsite that has this problem with navigation. Here is the point is gets stuck at <Hotspot X="-11260" Y="-605.1469" Z="90.26495" />

3. Digsites with buildings or ruins in the area are quite troublesome because the bot sometimes gets stuck on top and just escavates constantly unless you move him from the edge. This has been the biggest problem for me out of the three I have listed. Just got stuck on multiple spots This is one of the spots <Hotspot X="-5655.542" Y="1409.036" Z="131.6834" />

I am just trying to help make this better but you probably already have these in the que for fixes. Just ask for specific info if it helps

Thank you for this and everything you have done for the community. Plus rep

 

[Koalemos]

Gave it a shot but it seemed to follow roads while flying in the air so it is way too slow for me currently.Hopefully will be updated soon to be more efficient

 

[gameownz]

Works good so far but sometimes (once he collect everything and the place is empty) he
just mount fly some yards in the air and don't do anything no mesh download no flying
just nothing. Anyone else have this problem?

 

[jacobhwrd]

Yes it does follow roads to get from zone to zone. I believe this is to try and make sure that you dont get stuck when traveling to a different zone that is at different lvls. Plus this is also to allow the ppl without the lifetime HB flying support to use it.

What do I do?

You use a blank profile or a profile without a set level limit.

On page 69 Xanathos explains it

 

[nfllover100]

Thanks for the tip but whats weird is I didnt have a profile loaded it was a fresh HB

 

[raphus]

Changelog v1.0.0.502

• Flight logic is improved yet again. Its a lot more clever now. Climbing over mountains should be fixed.
• New anti-stuck behavior for trees and such objects during flight.
• It will no longer land on buildings, rocks etc.
• It now loads an empty profile upon starting bot.
• Mounting in water is improved.
• Nerubian and Vrykul artifacts are now supported.
• Druids will now use flight form regardless of survey distance

 

[Vertraag]

Quick question raphus: is the Twilight Grove digsight blacklisted now? Thanks for the update!

 

[mctrix]

you are a top bloke.

You should have left that profile thing so users had to actually read or learn a little to get this to work.

 

[landizz]

Keep getting "An error occured while loading ArchaeologyBuddy" re-installed both HB and the bot several times.
