[PAID] BGFarmer - An Advanced Battleground Bot Base

[namednoob]

All I can say is millz is awesome, had asked him to provide me an extra trial since there was this incident with the wow update yesterday which took nearly the whole day, he gave me the extra trial to test BGFarmer.

Tested it with my mage using portal and the result was no other than I bought it it worked really nicely I was impressed.

Now I have to work things out with tuan to figure why his routine inst working well with BGFarmer and see if he can possible fix it.

Thanks millz

I was wondering if you're working on making BGFarmer compatible with Ashran. If so, I'd buy it in a second, I just want to make sure its being worked on so I know my investment was for good!

Running TuanHA Premium the bot does nothing. Then upon pressing stop, HB crashes.
Running Singular, bot starts, nothing happens, but this time there's atleast some activity to be seen in HB, never queues.

That log file just shows Honorbuddy loading, it hasn't been started yet, so nothing has attempted to run. Can you post another log where you've clicked start and nothing happens please?

hey there i just wanted to let you know that recently the bot is getting stuck in temple of kotmogu where the corner pillars are when trying to attack an enemy player,it basically keeps running against it without noticing its stuck this is very botlike behaviour any suggestion on how to solve this? thank you

You can use the blackspot navigation tab in the GUI to blacklist certain areas of the map. It should help resolve issues getting stuck.

I'm testing now in AV and my framerate is 10-20 fps where it normally runs 60-80 fps. I tried with Singular and Tuanha's, no difference between the two CR. I stop BGfarmer and my framerate returns to 60+, turn it on and back down to 10-20.

I've been reliably informed by raphus that there's a bug in Honorbuddy's core which has an infinite loop on an already intensive piece of code (which BGFarmer heavily uses). It'll be fixed in the next HB build apparently. Will see how that goes, and if it's still bad I'll start doing some performance profiling on BGFarmer.

Item equipping doesn't seem to be taking into account that the pvp gear is higher stats in the pvp zones. Mine keeps equipping my molten core helm over my pvp helm when the pvp one is considerably better. Obviously I can just bank it, but I'd rather not have to do that.

That's done by Honorbuddy. Settings & Tools -> Auto Equip.

I've done a bit on Ashran (BGFarmer will acknowledge Ashran as being inside a BG, and it'll accept queue invites), but I haven't wrote any of the actual Ashran logic yet. I do have plans to add it, but I don't want to make any guarantee's at this stage in case I encounter problems with it.

Yea I apologize for that, I fixed it last night. For some reason it does not autoequip when using Enyo, so I thought it was related to BGfarmer, but it is just a setting which can be turned off in HB. Easy fix.

Is there anyway to use Anticap with BGFarmer? When the bot is in Ashran it will not que up for another BG, as it thinks that it is still in an instanced zone. Anticap will however work with the regular BGbuddy. I find Anticap is vital as it will spend your points before you cap. Any help would be appreciated, I'd rather not stop my bot at 4k ty!

Don't queue in Ashran. There are PVP vendors in the nearby towns. Find yours and queue from there.

I was running bgfarmer from the bank in Ashran. I was not queued for Ashran or in the instanced area. When I came back a few hours later my character was drowning in the ocean. It appears to me that it went to repair into the instanced zone at which point it began queuing for Ashran. It seems to have accepted the queue and from that point gone haywire. For about 2.5 hours my bot went crazy. I am worried about the possibility this may have compromised my account. Attached is the log of the incident.

Hey Millz.. this is so weird but im in an av.. and 2 people and I are running exactly the same.. are jumping the exact same time with random jump.. its wack to see that "everyone" is doing everything and running the same, I thought that this uses pretty much type custom pathing for each person to randomize where we go and how.. to avoid detection of constantly running same waypoint... just curious thanks..

It was stupid to see myself and 2 others in av running exactly the same places.. doing exactly the same stuff. (ie mounting) (turning) i thought everything was randomized.

also in isle of conquest " it stays at docks for about 10minutes.. anyway to change it? i realize i can "disable docks" but wont it just go to another area nad just stand on flag for 10 mins? instead of attacking etc?

also millz i love your work.. im having a bit of a problem to where it "stutters" around like inch step feet etc.. to stay in range.. doesnt look very human like thanks

I think you can fix that by adding a blackspot.

is there some special setting i need put use for using singular alongside this, as a resto druid? it seems to be targetting really randomly, and not seeking out players with lower health, even though that is activated.

I've no idea what's happened there. Honorbuddy has seen that it needed to repair, it then selected this unit as the closest repair vendor: Reema - NPC - World of Warcraft

..in Talador! It started moving towards that unit and ended up going through the instanced bit. This is an Honorbuddy bug rather than BGFarmer. Not much I can help you with other than advising you to queue up elsewhere in the world.

I'll change the logic a bit for IoC to improve that. The stuttering will be getting changed in the next build too.

Using same paths -> Use the Navigation tab in the GUI to add blackspots to paths. When you see your character run a path similar to someone else, click add blackspot while on that path, and it won't use it again. This is the best method for randomizing paths, as everyone blacklists different paths. I had thought of auto-blocking certain paths, but if BGFarmer auto blocked that path for everyone, then all of the bots would switch to the new path - and it just wouldn't fix that problem.

Jumping/Mounting/Turning - All of this is randomized. Depends what's going on in the BG at the time, but EVERYTHING in BGFarmer has some form of randomization on it.

The targeting options are focused on enemy players. The targeting should still find friendly units to target still though. Healer targeting could probably do with an overhaul to be honest.

Playing a Hunter using the Gladiator Suit CR It tends to not kite or move much. I have it set up as the caster option with kiting and distance set to 30 yds, but once a melee class gets on me it tends to play a lot more like melee. The CR will use spells effectively to gain distance, but once those are used and the melee are back on me the bot doesn't really kite at all. Is there anything different to set up logic for a hunter, or does this sound like it is working as intended? I am unsure of how to get logs if you don't mind telling me i have no issues providing them. On my melee classes this works great, but the movement with my hunter is not optimal.

 

[namednoob]

Would it be possible to add an option for Temple of Kotmogu when you have the orb to go to the middle and fight there until you lose the orb?

 

[Detk0rd]

Thank you millz for your VERY elaborate response and as always I will always support your work you deserve it

It kites (moves around) when the target is stunned or you're silenced etc. It moves around using strafe keys. The reason it doesn't do it too much is because it's hard to calculate what terrain is around you, so if it was trying to strafe constantly, and you were in one of the bases in WSG (for example..) then you may end up just running into the walls etc. I tried to add enough movement so that you don't just stand perfectly still in combat, but didn't want to add the traditional style of kiting (turn around and run away) as that's just going to ensure you get killed (you wouldn't be DPSing while trying to run, and you've got people pummelling you from behind).

Would it be possible to add an option for Temple of Kotmogu when you have the orb to go to the middle and fight there until you lose the orb?

It attempts to do that, but once you get into combat the CR takes over, and just attacks whoever you're in combat with.

Can you help me ? Sometimes it works flawlessly and sometimes i get this " [BGFarmer] Waiting to initialize, please wait... " No matter how many times i restart or relaunch HB.

Even if movement is being taken care of by BGFarmer?

Yeah. It's difficult to decide when to just stop attacking someone and go back to where you were, and when the bot should keep fighting.

 

[jimtehownage]

I've been using BGFarmer the past few days and it's been working flawlessly, now I get a weird error in my screen it says you are not the right faction to use this mount???
