Instance LockOut Detection

[marcjeno1]

Hey,

Im not very good with programming but is there anyone that could help me out here?
You can do 10 instances max in an hour, after that when you enter a dungeon the message, you have entered too many instances will appear in yellow.
Is there anyway to read out this message from the game so that the bot can react to it? Like go to a certain spot wait there and retry entering the instance after 5 minutes?

Hi, Marcjeno1,

The InstanceTimer quest behavior that ships with Honorbuddy already does this. Documentation is in comments at the top of the InstanceTimer.cs file.

profile writers time the run, then put in lines of code with a 'wait timer' so the runs will average out to X per hour. i was thinking it was 5, making it 12 minutes per run. so run time + wait timer + 12 minutes?

Hi, Frosticus,

The timer is measure "instance resets per hour", not "time between instance resets", I believe.

The old number used to be 5 instance resets per hour. In one of the patches earlier this year, they changed it to allow 10 instance resets per hour.

Please be careful with this. My understanding that running instances at this rate for a prolonged period of time can cause you account to be banned. Just because it can be done, doesn't mean it is safe to do.

yeh, i was thinking out loud how to reach a total reset per hour number. again, rambling. I have been running the HoL profile a couple times every night, having flashbacks of good times had in Wrath. whispering to all the people i pass on the way to the vendor. sadly, no one whispers back. had my toon still in an old guild i helped level up some time ago. didnt know the profile was depositing gold in the guild bank, not sure how i missed it. lost around 7k gold before i saw him in the portable guild vault. dummy me.

No i really want to read out the chat message, sometimes i get a dc and then the instancetimer wont know how many resets have been done.

Im wanting to get rid of the waiting in instances with azyul's farming profiles. I made myself a script in his profile so it will do 10 resets then just rest for like 15 minutes so it looks way less botty then when the bot would be standing at the end of the instance to time out for the 10 dungeons per hour.
Now i also have the problem with a disconnect here, when that occurs, the profile doesnt know how many runs it has done previously so then the instancelockout will be triggered.

So is there anyone who can help me out make a plugin that just reads out the yellow text message and as a reaction move to a xyz position and wait there for 5 minutes then tries again to enter the instance?
