Framelock and Botbase "release"

[NavyAV89]

I am asking this question here because i think it is HB's responsibility to not allow community devs to create these problems. I wont mention specific items in the Buddy Store that I am observing this with because i do not want this to turn into a flaming thread. So, 2 questions....

1. Please correct me if i am wrong but the only HB component that should really be using framelock are Combat Routines...right? Why would a Botbase need to use framelock? I notice my Wow client freezing at the same point every time and it looks the same as when i try to use framelock and am sloppy with the code to do so. If CRs are the only ones that should be using it, HB should prevent other objects from using it.....IMHO.


2. Whn i switch botbases, a certain botbase does not seem to go away. I see log messages from it as if it is still active. The only way to truly unload it is, to switch to a different botbase, shut it down and then restart. If i close with said botbase configured, the problem is still there at startup. Even if i never start HB.

Why does HB allow this? It should terminate anything the Botbase is doing when i change to another Botbase.

Actually, i am very unhappy with this developer and their products. I am just going to stop using them. I just wish I came to this decision before the expiration of the refund button.

Hi, NavyAV89,

We greatly appreciate how careful you've been to avoid starting a flamefest and developer bashing!

Ratings & Reviews are now available in the Buddy Store. It would help fellow Community members if you use this to provide specific & meaningful feedback. Products won't improve without constructive criticism.

As far as a refund, you may try contacting [email protected] and see if they can work something out for you. We don't know what, if any, flexibility they may have. Just remember, if you refund, you will never be able to re-buy the product in the future (if it gets its act together).

As to your first point...
our eventual goal is to permanently enable frame lock (and provide no user configuration for it). But, we cannot achieve this goal until we correct a large quantity of internal HBcode. And, to this day we are still trying to discourage some third-party developers from using harmful programming techniques (e.g., sleeps, or constant re-queries for the same information each frame, etc.)

cheers,
chinajade

I sent the request...

I am aware that I will not be able to purchase the products in the future and I am comfortable with that resolution.

I finally received a response and they are telling me they aren't even willing to look at it beyond the 7 days. This is unfortunate.
