Help! I think my bot has Alzheimers, keeps forgetting stuff [LOG]

Originally in support, seemingly a trinity issue:

https://www.thebuddyforum.com/demon...879-help-bot-alzheimers-forgetting-stuff.html

Log in original post. Watching closely.

EDIT:

- After starting "cursed shrine" the bot runs off and wont open the bonus chest.

- Malled-lords cause oddities too, the bot just twitches "some distance from em" and wont go near or attack. Monk.

- Still forgets current elite/rare/boss if other is nearby and goes to give it a hug.

- Loots X-items, then goes to fight random mobs, maybe returns to forgotten items

EDIT2:

[Trinity][Movement] Returning ZigZag: RandomXY <602.4377, 469.5004, 0> r-dist=20 t-dist=17,83411

This keeps popping up LOT when my barba does Whirwind... I have the target-based WW active so shouldnt that be "not random" ?

[Trinity][Navigator] Navigator Moved dest=x="643" y="790" z="0" (Name=SafePoint Dist=99 IsElite=False LoS=False HP=0,00 Dir=NE) duration=0 distance=101

What does this mean? Despite setting most avoidances above 50% HP my bot runs off scared... This line keeps popping

EDIT3:

Theres a setting to aply a wait time to "bounty events" but it does not seem to work. Maybe related.

EDIT4:

[Trinity][Behavior] CurrentTarget set as null in refresh! Error 2, Returning Failure

Couple random caused this line to pop up as my bot just ignored them.

EDIT5:

- Odd behaviour. Opens H-cache, pics up couple items, runs to stash em, pics up two more items and runs to stash em and then the last items but NOT stashing them.

EDIT6:

Sledge the large bounty-related mallet-lord caused this line to pop up and my bot to stay some distance from him twitching around:

[Trinity][Navigator] Navigator Moved dest=x="725" y="1223" z="-10" (Name=SafePoint Dist=98 IsElite=False LoS=False HP=0,00 Dir=E) duration=0 distance=100

"HP=0,00" ?? Does it think my char is dead / low hp and tries to run avoidance?

Seriously? Anyone? Is there any support? 70% of topics here have 0 answers.

EDIT: some things ive noticed:

- Regardless of what range i set in "avoidance" the bot will keep the same distance and quite often die in molten-explosion twitching just at the edge of the kaboom

- Theres a setting to "wait for bounty events" that doesnt seem to work or do anything, my bot wont wait for cursed shrine or chest

- Sometimes forgets nearby cursed chests, sometimes forgets to loot em, sometimes forgets to kill the mobs

- Loses loot-goblins when they run off for certain distance. Even with kamikaze active. Mobs nearby cause this more often.

- "leave leges unidentified" -option STOPPED working just recently, no idea why, no change in any setting, just stopped working. I'd like to keep it on.

- Elite kill-range setting does not work. Set it t 15 or 150, irrelevant, bot still pulls multible elite-packs. Same goes for trash-kill range.

More issues.

- Leap/quake barba keeps using leap OOC and jumps to healt-globes OOC. Not good

- Kills X-mobs, then runs off "somewhere" and maybe comes back to kill the rest

- ALL CLASSES, arcane avoidance is poop, sometimes works, often not at all

This is seriously destroying my gameplay. My bot can barely reach Grift l25-28
 
MORE issues.

- Sees enemies, casts Earthquake, at his feet, not at the enemy

- Spams Rend FROM RANGE, regardless of CD-setting in variables

- Uses "inore pain" randomly and often BEFORE getting hit by enemy

- Random leaping, for no reason, uses leap, to anywhere

What will it take to get some support here? These issues are basicly capping my performance short, VERY short.

.

The reason why so many of us do not even bother to try and help anymore can be summed up in a recent e-mail I received after trying to help - but let me rather quote verbatim a recent private mail from a buffoon called "Necro19":

With Members like you , no wonder everyone goes to figure out himself how he can solve his own Problem.

And u came along with such sarcastic Informations.

You know what ? I figure this out by myself. Good bye i don't need you any longer.
Biggest bunch of asshole ever... jesus christ leave me alone Freak!!

ROTFL so yeah...:P
 
I dont mind trying to solve things myself but this coding-stuff "aint my game" and while i can "somewhat" read it and maybe even copy/paste stuff, i cant really write it or add variables to stuff.

Ive tried searching, no definitive answer. Tried bazillion setting-variations, no help.

Ask me, il answer. Point me the right way and il take it from there.

In WoW perfecting my bot was "the game" for me, same goes here. Something is just messing up things and i cant seem to find out what.
 
Hi Swatti,

I hope you can appreciate the things that do work (when they do) and understand we are constantly working to improve the bot. I hope at least your bot is relatively stable and you're happily running rifts or bounties or whatever it is you bot for.

D3 is constantly changing and the DB API is often cryptic at best. Weird stuff happens but I really do try to make the bot as stable as possible. It will never be perfect, support every profile, every build or every situation ideally - what it does do is support almost all general situations and conditions in at least a basic manner. Any optimizations for classes, unique situations, skills or items are always extra.

I think the hard part actually is where you're expecting the bot to be perfect and behave as YOU would envision. This is actually why I started working on Trinity, because it used to be REALLY REALLY bad. We've actually come a long way :)

-rrrix
 
P.S.

Check a lot of the combat settings - there are options *galore* to change many, many mechanisms, particularly related to how and when your bot will use spells (e.g. Leap out of combat).

In terms of the avoidance - I know, it's not an easy problem to solve. For the other stuff, if it keeps happening and is really bad, make sure to note the profile you're using (often bugs are profile related) and try and keep up with the latest Trinity releases, when they're pushed.
 
First of all, HUGE thanks, seems to work now apart from small "understandable" issues. I truely apriciete the work you have done, its huge load of coding to say the least.

Instead of you trying to work out best "settings" for us, let us do it, just give us the tools.

One problem is, the bot has THREE settings, the plugin options, variables and the manual text-files, some override the other. Of these the text-files give the most controll and features to different skills but obviously are the hardest to alter for those of us who know nearly nothing of coding... All three of those settings need to be put into one.

No need to trash a system that allready works but how hard would it be to create a user interface with simple idea of altering the behaviour of a single skill with all the existing modifers on a list where one can pick ANY of them and link them to the skill.
You could simply create skills that are "dumb-cast" every X-seconds OR add dozen or more variable when, where, how often, effected-by-items, mob-count, etc. Via simple for us simpletons interface. Any skill not set via this way would behave as set in "vanilla plugin" but any skill using this setting would over-ride any vanilla-settings.

This way we could finetune our skill-usage to perfection and according to our style or items, you just add more variables we can use and let us do the finetuning.

I hope i made some sense ^^

Seriuosly ?? You talking nonsense

This is what u wrote to me

Running solo or with followers ??

Will test soon R-Rift.xml

Okay, it is clear you do not understand what I am TRYING to explain. I guess English is not your first language, and therefore concepts is difficult to understand.
Good luck. Hope you figure it out eventually.

That was my thread , i didn't messed up any PROFILE i was just following the instructions of this guy here ;
to stop the "entering Rift" loop that appears to happen all the time I changed the end of the code to the following

Code:
    <LogMessage output="End of Profile, waiting 33 seconds to reload..." />
    <WaitTimer questId="1" waitTime="33000" />
    <LoadProfile profile="R-RIFT.xml" />

only problem is that if you do a town run for full bags it sits there for 30 seconds, but the upside is that it always enters rifts once completed :)


So please stop your annyoing messages against me. And on my Question in Pm "Running solo or with followers ??" u freaked out.

My question was referring to "Just noticed the bot's running stupid when finishing the TrailRift. When my Follower comes to town they run @ upper right corner to the Orange Portal and standing around there instead of open next TrailRift ;/"

Look here : https://www.thebuddyforum.com/demon...99971-trail-rifts-a5-pathing.html#post1827431

As u maybe know Followers using Simplefollow.xml and no Rift or Rifttest.xml , so u completley misunderstand my Question.... Thats why i put you to the ignore list , because of stupid Pm message... see above.



Edit : My mainchar was running fine , even with the damaged "Profile".My Problem was all about my "Followers" ... He just got interrupt by the followers because of the stupid behaviour ( A5 They gathered all in the corner) .
Edit 2 : And yes your right English isn't my main-language.

So Good luck , Hope you figure it out eventually. (Carefull : Maybe this text is familiar to you :-)

At the risk of "necroing" this thread, let me just say: Je suis Charlie. I will defend your right to express yourself and even make an asshole out of yourself.
 
"Let it all out man, let it all out..." Im sure your shrink would agree.

Aint THAT old topic to talk about necroing ^^
