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

Status
Not open for further replies.
Raphus i have to say mate youve done an awsome job here, i got 0-325 Archaeology in just over 3hrs using this bot, it seems navigation is a big problem though, i found that if i used a ground mount there were no problems at all (except for the obvious time it takes to get to each dig sit) when using a flying mount it seems to get stuck in tree's and sometimes cant navigate around mountains/hills etc also if u use experimental pathing while using a flying mount it will do constant circle movements on the spot (very bot like)

I hope to see you making this bot better and better dude!

i am an official "Assistant Professor" - thanks for that :P

I like the fix that you made for getting over blackrock mountain but it only seems to work going south. If you approach heading north it will still get stuck every time about 10-20 yards short of making it over the peak.
 
I have a request that I strongly believe shouldn't be too difficult to implement :) I would love the ability to be able to have the bot ignore specific digsites. For intsance, Archaeology locations - WoWWiki - Your guide to the World of Warcraft lists the various dig sites and the associated type. If there was a way to configure it to ignore specific types, like "fossil" or "troll", for instance, that would be great! :) Maybe even an option to ignore specific dig sites all together.

The reason I say that it would likely be simple to implement is because you are already able to pull down the name of the dig site prior to navigating to it. We see it in the log. Maybe give us a configuration file to use so we can add in an array of dig sites to ignore or dig sites to go to.. unless you wanted to keep some internal index where you know that the following dig sites are 'fossil', the following are 'dwarf', etc, which would allow us to either focus on specific site types or ignore specific site types.

Thoughts? I'm sure everybody would be into it. I just hit 525 and have zero need for 'fossil' or 'troll' anymore. All need is 'dwarf', 'night elf' and "tol'vir".
 
Yup, same problem as jacobhwrd.

I have a few problems getting stuck in Badlands when trying to get to the south and also getting stuck in burning steppes when trying to get to duskwood's twilight grove. Also whenever the bot is in duskwood's twilight grove, it gets stuck on the cliff and does not survey (has to manual survey to break to loop).

Another bug is coming from the north to wetlands to survey the north dwarven dig site, the bot stands right outside of the dig zone on the bridge.

many of these problems I only notice on my shaman who only has 100 archeology, while my dk with 525 does not have these problems.

What would you do when you start it for the night, after 4 digsites you only have fossil and your character just stands there doing nothing. Id rather have 1billion troll fragments at that point rather then know that I left my character logged in doing nothing :)
 
Yeah i agree with Lindariel. Plus water seems to be this bots WORST enemy at the moment. Also it can tell where the dig sites are but if it travels outside of the dig sites it is screwed until you stop if and take it back into the dig site.

Temple of Zin-Malor is quite buggy also atm. My toon flies up and down from the ground and roof of the big building digging on the roof, it also gets stuck inside the building.

Many dig sites also have problem withit digging outside of the area it is suppose to. (known bug)

You could program in an exception like... if preferredDigsiteCount() == 0, then dig at one of the sites on your ignore list until one on your preferred list becomes available.
 
How do I actually use this :S...there is no option for Archaeology where I normally select 'mixed'/'instancebuddy'?
 
This bot does not show in my dropdown tab!!, I've sourced through every relevant post. Zip filed to folder copied Archaeologybuddy folder to my bot folder where it sits with instancebuddy as the only 2 bots in the bots folder. i also tried to unzip directly to my C: HB/BOT folder where the Bot from the zip file just merged with the existing Bot file containing instancebuddy. I've tried a few combinations and this should be showing in my HB. is there a step I'm missing as this seems pretty straight forward to me hence my confusion. here is my path C: HB>BOTS>ARCHAEOLOGYBUDDY The 3 files in the folder are
ABloader.cs
Archaeologybuddy
Emptyprofile

I do not Have Lifetime and am aware Flying mount is not available until i upgrade, I should still have this bot in my drop-down bot tab shouldn't I?
 
New release will be up in a few days. All bugs reported in this thread are fixed or being worked on.

Blacklisting specific types of digsites and stuff like that will be in as soon as we get it stable.

Thanks for all your hard work, I and I'm sure many others definitely appreciate it :)
 
ive been reading how people are leveling archeology and i was wondering what the best way to run and level this bot to 525 for best results. I am at 150 right now and its been farming fragments. Is it better to level it as you go or just farm fragments until you have a lot. then level it. Or does it not matter?
 
i went from about 150 arch to 525 arch using this plugin alone, though i did have to jump in and stop it from acting retarded in game more than a few times :) I would actually 'solve' whenever i had enough to do a 'solve'.
 
Can anyone please help in relation to my earlier post

if you dont see it in the drop-down men?, i think you put it in the wrong folder, you have to drop it in the folder "bots". if you already do it, then i think you have the folder "bot" 2 times

seems like hb/bots/bots/archeology
