Followbot w/ pirox technique

[flickeringobscenity]

Hi!

I suppose "technique" is a little grandiose for this
When I was using Pirox, i made a followbot using this code:
z=SetVar("xxxx", Target("x"))
z=SetVar("yyyy", Target("y"))
z=SetVar("zzzz", Target("z"))
z=WP($xxxx, $yyyy, $zzzz)

So essentially it set a variable with the x, y, and z values of its target and used those as its next waypoint.

Is it possible to do something like this with HB's hotspot system?
Maybe I should just have it spam a /follow macro...

I do realise that Partybot serves this function much more efficiently but I don't have a second key at the moment.

Thanks

there is an addon called jamba used for multiboxing and it has an option called strobe follow which basically spams follow commands

This should be doable, but you'd have to write it as a botbase, which is probably more trouble than it's really worth for you.
How often would you really use something like this?

I think you may be better off just scrounging up the funds for another license.
Beyond that, Jamba can stobe follow commands, and _keySpam can spam a /follow macro if you're really feeling serious about this.

Hmm, alright guys, thanks.

It was useful in Pirox for RAF levelling and farming instances, and I do intend to pull together some more bitcoins for another license, but I had a lot of fun tweaking shit in Pirox so I'm just feeling out feasible projects with this new toy

This could easily be done in a plugin and using a bot base such as raidbot to handle combat.

He didn't mention it getting involved in combat, just a followbot. And if he wants to use it to farm instances with a lowbie, having it fight is only going to cause problems.
