HB ARCHIVES: Feedback for Honorbuddy Improvements--DO NOT DELETE!

[theatristformallyknownasG]

This is a profile issue.. It depends what the profile writer wants the profile to do first (if "Kill between hotspots" is enabled that probably has something to do with it as well).

With that said, just contact the creator of the profile and ask him to move things around. Worst case scenario is that you get a "no"

So if I simply re-order a profile myself it should sort itself out ?

This should collect the items before killing the mobs in the next task. Again if you have "Kill mobs between hotspots" enabled that may have something to do with the killing spree.. Try to turn it off if it's enabled..
If it's killing mobs before collecting stuff it probably has the "Kill task" above the "Collect task" - Keep in mind that HB will defend itself if the bot is being attacked.. So if the items it needs to collect surrounded by mobs it has to fight it's way through (And even loot the mobs, if it's enabled = wich can pull even more mobs)

Example from kickz 12-58 alliance

			<Objective QuestName="The Coastal Menace" QuestId="26349" Type="CollectItem" ItemId="3636" CollectCount="1" />
			<Objective QuestName="The Coast Isn't Clear" QuestId="26348" Type="KillMob" MobId="127" KillCount="7" />

I hope this explains it without getting too confusing

When flight paths and native flying are enabled, flight paths should have priority over Native Flying and not the other way round (or an option to at at least choose).

Thank you.

A stand-alone Lazyraider/Combat version for those of us who have no interest in farming/gathering/grinding/questing etc... Would be epic
Keep up the great work

Please allow for HB to shutdown more gracefully when it crashes... so we can relogin immediately after restarting.

Completely agree with aussiemob. Release a "rotation only" version asap after a patch so we can raid.
It is a little suspicious that we have to cancel raid everytime there is a patch

I think learning to play your class would come in handy at those times? If you rely on HB to even raid for you, might as well just give up on the game. This automates boring tasks, but raiding is end game content, so why the hell are you even paying for WoW?

I know people buying the bot just for this function. Why do you do your rotation on your own which is an endless routine and not farm on your own all the materials or pvp on your own? Do not criticise the others. I play my class well but still having the bot doing my rotation for me is great since I don't stress myself.

 

[zinner]

Could we get a update of status for release ?

 

[EpicXss]

Thank you.
I don't rely on hb to "even" raid for me. It is the other way around.
I want the bot to play better than a human. To respond faster and always with the correct prioritizing.

It is clear from many of the treads, none of the routines will give you top results if you don't know how to play your class.
In raid enviroment you still have to time your cooldowns working together with the rest of the raid so it will never be fully automated. But it will free you from tedius stack building or blanketing or whatever your class have to do to perform to it's max potential.

The classes I bot with, I study to the smallest details to be able to set up the "perfect" rotation/prioritizing. Thus I can make small changes depending on the bossfight.
Or make changes on the fly depending on how it behaves.
So ofc. I can play it manually but that for me, would defy the whole point of playing this game.
I don't want to do repeating task not in this game or in real life. I want to solve it so it runs by itself.

Do you wanna go gather water every day or would you rather build a pipeline once and for all.
If you wanna continue fetching water by hand you are free to do that, but don't blame builders for being lazy or not "able to play".

Feel free to delete this post together with M3th02's post. Since this is a response to a nonconstructive input and this discussion should not even be in this thread.

I agree with previous posters, please release a rotation only "lite" version so we can raid.

And for all those people saying l2p, some of us get bored playing this game at times such as LFR and just want to chill.

 

[keystar71]

Mayby just an Idea but......hAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA lol

Is is possible in honorbuddy to have an option to cancel the current quest when we see that there is a problem and it wond go on to the next quest ?

lets say a next quest button ? or a way to be able to interfere in an interface where we see the current quest ahead so on ?

 

[keystar71]

for waht I have previously said , sometimes quest are done but bot did not record it some how and try to get it again and again or is at the wrong place and try to get quest from wrong npc....


and secondly : is there a way to add a way to choose what items we want to keep like in a list. and the same way a way to choose only the thinkgs we want to keep ? TY and that is all folk's lol

Like I've said in previous threads you should not be treated any different than those who do not raid, it'll only cause a bigger workload for HB devs, as well as mods on the forums, because people will whine that they cannot use it for anything else.

 

[exdeus]

As feedback goes I (and a lot of others) would like a Lightweight version with only the ability to run our Combat rotations. I personally use a custom build CC with lazYraider or Tyrel and would be nice to have the bot available even after a patch that is always up. I do use the other functions of HB but they are just as convenient. Im always happy to wait but its just a little thing that would be nice.

Cheers guys

yes something like PQR just for using cc with lazyraider or Tyrael....A HB light.....

No i think it's a good idea, may be a lite HB faster for combat rotation, easy to upgrade when there is a new patch...and don't care about whining people.... they always whine....

same it's so boring to do raid....i do them only for stuff and gold....

There is no such thing as a "lite" version for botting...

To answer this question once again, addressing new content is trivial compared to the other work that must be done.

The vast bulk of the time is spent:

• Reconstituting changes to the WoWclient object model
  This is caused by changes in game mechanics--not "new content". The game mechanics deal with things like how spells work (overrides vs normal), etc. Information is refactored--information that used to exist in one object has been shuffled to another object, or sometimes broken into pieces and scattered to several objects. This new refactoring must be analyzed and accommodated.
  
  
• Analyzing and defeating the anti-botting measures Bliz had put in place.
  Aka, "The Warden".
  Your client-side botting safety is the primary concern--a shortcut here would be devastating to the entire Community.
  
  
• This time Bliz switched compilers.
  So, the old patterns that were used to quickly locate, check, and update blocks of code are no longer valid. The development team must spend additional time to locate the new information, and create new patterns for it, so the next updates won't take so long.
  
  
• Many, many more issues along this line.

Almost everything else is trivial in comparison. The time it takes to produce a 'lite' version is virtually the same it takes to produce a 'full' version. Thus, there is no such thing as a "lite" version.

There you go.

So many times a tap of the strafe key fixes stuck. So many times the bot doesn't even try to unstuck and just rams into that tree. Every minute of not making it toward the goal and not moving significantly should qualify for strafe unstuck. If position returns, then and only then should we see it go through it's 5 point back peddle move (that often fails anyway). Universal movement pause would also let us fix some of these stucks where the bot goes crazy if we try to nudge it.

NPC interactions: sometimes it triggers a dialog option, then thinks it didn't and repeatedly tries to grab the quest it's now already on. often the bot just tries repeatedly for hours till d/c or throws some exception to the profile, but any time i tap a movement key, it's fixed!

Maybe I just need some help making a coordinate checker plugin that tries to strafe after a minute of coordinates not changing beyond a small threshold... cause its like the one event that seems to prevent 100% afk for most of my botting.
