is this your own quest profile your trying to debug? or is this someone elses?

because you can define the xyz of the quest giver in the tag, and that should resolve the issue.

After entering the coords, it still won't path correctly to the NPC, I myself thought the issue would be resolved by doing this but it appears that it still has issues.

Hi, Giwin,

You've got a lot of weirdness going on in both of your logs. Although its different than most issues we see, I think you are suffering from cache corruption. Can we give a try at cleaning all four of them up?

Hi, Giwin,

Thanks for trying that, and thanks for the fresh log.

The other stuff has been cleared up, but this is one of the issues in your log that I was hoping the cache clearing would correct:

[17:36:23.536 D] [STUCK] Got stuck at <-5275.057, -2970.617, 358.8492> on map 0
[17:36:23.562 D] [STUCK][HITTEST] LD/LU: False
[17:36:23.562 D] [STUCK][HITTEST] Left: False
[17:36:23.562 D] [STUCK][HITTEST] RD/RU: False
[17:36:23.562 D] [STUCK][HITTEST] Right: False
[17:36:23.562 D] [STUCK][HITTEST] Behind: False
[17:36:23.562 D] [STUCK][HITTEST] Behind Left: False
[17:36:23.562 D] [STUCK][HITTEST] Behind Right: False
[17:36:26.860 D] [STUCK] Strafing worked!
...<repeats>...​

The last thing I can think is one of your plugins is interfering with Honorbuddy navigation and causing this problem. Can we try disabling all plugins, and see if the problem goes away?

cheers,

Tried with no plugins, even turned off the plugins and restarted Honorbuddy to make sure no plugins were still hooked... the bot attempts to go the NPC but the NPC is inside a House and the bot is at the top of the hill thinking the NPC is there but the NPC is directly above, it doesn't seem to take into consideration Z Distance or something.

Hi, Giwin, and very sorry we're not having any success.

Your theory seems solid, and it would explain why Honorbuddy thinks it is stuck and calling the Stuck handler. There are three possibilities I can see for correcting the situation:

  • (Longer term) Perhaps the NPC is standing in an unmeshed (or badly meshed) area.
    If so, that's why Honorbuddy is clueless about the mobs actual location. If this is true, you can report the problem to the Navigation thread. They'll need both the correct coordinates for the NPC, and they usually need a screenshot to see how to correct the problem.

  • Try switching the Objective to the CollectThings behavior, and see if you fare any better.
    One nice thing about CollectThings, is if it can't get its chosen mob within a reasonable time, it will give up on that one, and move on.

  • If the mob is in an unmeshed region, use a series of MyCTM behaviors to get to it.
    This bypasses the Navigation system entirely. The only downside to doing this, is you must specify the exact path the toon will travel, and there is no obstacle detection or avoidance.

If none of these work for your problem, I'm tapped out for the moment.

cheers,

Thanks for all of your help, again I can only like as I have already given rep and it won't allow me to give more :).
