HB ARCHIVES: ProfessionBuddy--DO NOT DELETE

[jazzman170]

I'm quite dissapointed that they completely fuc*ed us user's over with PB by not giving us the option of chooseing which version of PB we want to run. I'm forced to use .745 of HB because the PB of latest is forced to latest PB which is buggy as hell (crashes) with PB and my profile.

hey, just came back to HB and found that PB should be installed with latest HB, but unfortunately it's not... anyone can help?
tried installer and zip...

So, professionsbuddy should automatically install when I run honorbuddy? Because.. it apparently does not. Can't seem to figure out how to get honorbuddy to download/install it.

Hi, Rogurogu and Featy,

As of build .746, ProfessionBuddy is now part of the Honorbuddy core. If you are having problems with it not showing up in your Bots list, you need to open a thread in the Support forum with your full log attached.

I have similar problems. Since the BuddyStore ppdate PB runs CustomAction Code twice. Profile runs fine before the update.
I made a small test Profile with just few lines of Code, same result.
Result testCounter = 3 instead of 2.
I tested with a complete fresh Installation of HB

Yup I've been observing this odd behavior when depositing gold to GB too. It's doing it twice as well. Happening 100% of the time.

Hi, all,

Just an update...
HB-1092 ("ProfessionBuddy's CustomAction executes twice.") has been marked as repaired, and should be available in the next (post-.747) Honorbuddy drop. No ETA on the drop.

cheers,

Here's a log for the TrainSkillAction "bug"

Hi, AtomicBomb, and many thanks for this log.

We're trying to write up a bug report for the exception we see in your log. Can you provide details (a profile, or profile fragment) that we can attach to the bug report on how the problem can be replicated?

cheers,

Hi!

How to i change logic (source code) in PB?

For example i want change @MailItemLuaFormat@ in old MailItemAction.cs file

Hi.
I use multiprofil . The latest versions HB of the farmer does not switch to the auctioneer. Farmer sends mail to the auctioneer and immediately flies to collect resources.

Hi!

How to i change logic (source code) in PB?

For example i want change @MailItemLuaFormat@ in old MailItemAction.cs file

I've done this by make a custom version of the old .cs file.

For instance I have a GetMailAction which uses slightly modified LUA (To do a /reload UI and reset the mailbox timer). I've named this GetMailActionQuick, and just placed it inside a folder I've created inside the Plugins directory. I can then access this from my PBProfiles.

As far as I am aware there is no way now to overwrite the behavior of the builtin PB code.

Anyone have problem in version hb 746,747,748?
this command:
<CustomAction Code="MyLog(&quot;Switching to banker&quot;" />
<CustomAction Code="SwitchCharacter((string)Settings[&quot;BankerName&quot;],Realm,&quot;Combat Bot&quot;" />
no more switch to banker. hb 745 working fine

this command:
<CustomAction Code="MyLog("Switching to banker");" />
<CustomAction Code="SwitchCharacter((string)Settings["BankerName"],Realm,"Combat Bot");" />
no more switch to banker. hb 745 working fine

This is exactly why I came to the thread looking for the reason it does not switch.

I had to just turn the banker script off, and just let it farm

Hi, Xel'[Naga],

For technical reasons, ProfessionBuddy is now distributed as part of the Honorbuddy core. This means the source code is no longer available.

The move also causes problems in that the Programming Guide that was previously distributed as part of ProfessionBuddy is no longer available either. This is bug report HB-1150 ("ProfessionBuddy documentation is missing"), which is still open.

Wullie is spot on, in that there is no way to override the current ProfessionBuddy behavior with modifications you make. Wullie's solution of making a mock-plugin out of your modification, and calling the method directly from your profile is very clever! Your other option is to take the old ProfessionBuddy code and make a 'new bot' out of it that contains your modifications. Obviously, you will be missing out on bug fixes to ProfessionBuddy if you do this.

Hi, Turya and Thebbandit,

Will be glad to write this up, or have a chat with Master Highvoltz. But, we're not going to waste his valuable time, if there are no logs that illustrate the problem.

Hi, Wizard, and many thanks for that log.

We've opened HB-1179 (""Switching to banker" causes toon to immediately mount for farming") against that issue.

Sorry, I did not understand. New versions of HB will not be able to switch to a banker?
What is HB-1179?

HB-1179 is the reference number of the "bug" or "issue" they've raised against this problem.

This just means it's been acknowledged and will be fixed when resources allow. Keep an eye out in the release notes of new HB versions for this reference so you can tell if the new release includes a fix.

To help show information in my log, I have put a logmark at the position that the error is occuring.

[16:52:53.076 N] Multiprofile: Switching to banker
[16:52:53.097 N] (Singular) info: 15.2 seconds since BotBase last called Singular (now in Rest)
[16:52:53.100 D] Activity: Moving to next hotspot
[16:52:59.778 N] [LOGMARK] Mark # 2 added to logfile

the switch just doesn't seem to fire and it stays on the farming toon. Also when the switch error happens, the farming toon just starts flying out of the west side of org and starts farming low level minerals... XD Hope this info helps to find a resolution.

H, Thebbandit, and many thanks for the log!

It is refreshing to see the LOGMARK being used—many thanks for this. I've added your log and comments to HB-1179 (""Switching to banker" causes toon to immediately mount for farming"), since it was the same failure fingerprint.
