Default Combat Discussion

I cant' get default to work. Bot loads, routine loads, profile loads. The bot moves around to hotspots, and harvests nodes. But when it sees a mob, it just stops and stares at it indefinitely.
It can even loot mobs, like if the companion kills it. But even if I initiate combat, the bot just sits there and won't attack.

There are no other routines in the folder. Plugins were deleted from the plugins folder. log is below. Thanks!

Routine doesnt load, hence the no fighting part.
Something wrong with the file...
 
I'm seeing tons of object errors. Most likely, someone stealthed near you, which causes the game to fuck up big time (you'll see GetHealth errors when that happens).

Try running this: https://www.thebuddyforum.com/relea...dependency-wizard.html?highlight=buddy+wizard

Make sure your game client is in English.

Clear your CompiledAssemblies folder.

When this happens in the future, the only thing you can do is restart both the bot AND the game (not just logout, you have to fully restart).
 
Hmmm.

Ran the wizard. Re-downloaded buddywing. Set it up in an entirely new folder, separate from the other BW. shut down the game, reopened it. Ran BW as an admin. Still no luck, same behavior.

Sigh. For some reason the upload wizard isn't working now. Cant upload the log file. It just has that last log file still in there and won't upload the new one. Cuz when it rains, it poors.

:/

BUT - is this line the problem?

[13:55:17.943 N] Buddy Wing: The Old Robot is ready!


I even tried manually selecting Default Combat in the routines dropdown, but still didn't work.


I have another BW folder set up in different place that has Joe's. That one runs fine. It's even relatively stable. It's just... Joe's is kinda old and slow. I'd really like to bot 3.0 style, ya know?

Any ideas? Thanks for the replies.
 
I found the typo you were referring to - Saboteur was mispelled. Put in the file you linked above, but it still isn't working. I loaded the bot up on my Sentinel, and default worked like a charm. Is gunslinger just broken? Is anyone else using one?

I'm not a coder, but I know enough about how it works to figure where some of the errors are:

based on this:
[16:24:08.427 D] Routines were reloaded. New routine list:

I can surmise the following - can you guys take a look and see anything pops out at you?

In the file "BuddyWing 1.0.1213.689\Routines\DefaultCombat\Core\RotationFactory.cs" the bot has a problem with line 41, which reads:
var instance = Activator.CreateInstance(type);

In the file "BuddyWing 1.0.1213.689\Routines\DefaultCombat\DefaultCombat.cs" BW has a problem with line 55, which reads:
RotationBase b = f.Build(BuddyTor.Me.Discipline.ToString());

The other references, referring to System.Activator.Createinstance, and Buddy.commonbot I couldn't make heads or tails of. I dunno if this is helpful, but I thought I'd highlight it incase any obvious syntax errors pop out at you.

Thanks again for your help.


While I'm at it, I should ask - if no one else is encountering this problem, I must conclude that saboteur GS is not a popular spec for botting. Anyone have a suggestion as to what might be better?

Is the routine also pushed to svn, or only to the devs?

Should be pushed to the SVN, which the devs upload with each release. At least, that's my understanding of what's happening-- I could be pushing these updates into the ether.
 
IM having alot of issues with this.

Problems with stealth, i get going in and out of stealth like crazy.
I think stealth is preventing the bot from using Mount.
There is a way to turn off stealth ?

Im having FPS issues too.

Suggestions ?

Put a // in front of the line that calls for stealth. If it's the last line, make sure you remove the comma at the end of the previous line.

Bot shouldn't be stealthing in manual mode, only afk

I never did a rotation, just added some skills after the //Rotation comment on the default file.

You have Mag Shot listed several times on there. If I recall, Mag Shot is a zero-cooldown ability. That means that the bot will just spam Mag Shot, since it's so high in the selector. Priority Selectors work from top to bottom until they hit a useable skill, then they reset to the top again. Therefore, you can't really program it to do a rotation, just select the best ability at any given time.

EDIT: Mag Shot is the Rail Shot replacement, so it's not zero cooldown. However, having it in there several times is still bad code. From memory, don't you only want to Mag Shot when the target is burning? We can actually check for auras for that.

Just came back to swtor (played on launch). I just parsed the Opener rotation from dulfy for IO, from the site rotation you use MS a couple of times.
 
Shadow Serenity - FPS drops to around 10-14 in combat. Even skillbar cooldowns are a bit laggy. Tried to tweak the routine and remove the bloat but still. Other classes work fine.
 
Powertech Pyrotech Issues

So pyrotech comes up as Firebug when the game does it's detection, I edited the file to make it work and then I modified it for some more DPS. Starting dps was 1200 and ended with 2050 so about double the dps output now. Hopefully the game detection can be fixed but until then this will fix you up.
