Need help with a 1-600 Ironforge Old Ironjaw fishing profile

Due to my complete lack of any coding skill whatsoever, I've spent the last 2 hours ruthlessly gutting the 1-600 Dalaran profile and trying to make it work in Ironforge for the chance of getting Old Ironjaw.

The problem I'm running into is this: after the bot trains and runs back to the fishing spot, it still has the trainer targeted and repeatedly spins back to face him.

Is there a way to have the bot clear its target after it is done interacting with the trainer?

Also, is it okay to modify the dal profile and post it once its working? I'm not really a profile writer at all so I don't know the proper courtesies and such.

Also, if anyone has a good explanation of how to tweak the setfacing variable, I would gladly listen.
 
Well, if anyone's interested, here's what I have so far:

View attachment Fishing1-600(ironforge).xml

As I noted before, this is just the Dalaran 1-600 that ships with ProfessionBuddy, modified to be a leveling/Old Ironjaw farming Alliance only profile. (no horde trainers around that I know of :()

I don't know if this will train the initial level of fishing or not, so it may be useful to start in the Forlorn Cavern and train the actual skill itself.

The following is a suggested plugin:

NoBind

And since there is no vending available from the trainer here, I recommend a plugin or addon that will delete all the fish/crap you will get. Personally, I use trashcan:

Trashcan - Bags & Inventory - World of Warcraft Addons - Curse

though it may be out of date. Just enable out of date addons and you're good to go. It's quite easy to setup and once it is setup, is completely automated. Be careful with your settings though, as I have deleted some 100g+ gray archeology items because I removed the price stipulation. :o

This profile is run with ProfessionBuddy.

Fixed issues:

  • Bot now faces the water more naturally
  • Added a cleartarget command before fishing to prevent spinning around and facing the trainer after training

Remaining issues:

  • Bot will only train up to 525.

For whatever reason, the bot refused to train when it reached level 500 fishing (it is supposed to initiate training whenever it gets to the max level of fishing minus 25. So it will train at 50, 125, 200, and so on. But it won't at 500 for some reason). I have some ideas on how to fix it, but no toons to test it on anymore.

EDIT

Ran this a few hours last night, got all junk. Ran it for 5 minutes after waking up, got the rare fish + achievement, woo!

Hey, I haven't done a lot of profiles or really looked at them in a long time but your issue might be on line 24.

<If Condition="(Fishing.MaxLevel - Fishing.Level &lt;= 25 &amp;&amp; Fishing.MaxLevel != 525) || Me.BagsFull" IgnoreCanRun="True">

You are checking to see if Max level - Current Level = 25 && MaxLevel does not equal 525 here. So if the max level is 525 it won't run the train routine until bags are full.

At least that is my understanding. I would change the Fishing.MaxLevel != 525 to 600 here.

The profile would technically work if you allowed your bags to get full and did not use the trashcan thing I think.
 
I thought that might be the case! It was the only "525" left in the profile, but I didn't understand what that line meant so didn't want to change it in case it messed things up.

Link updated with new profile. Hopefully it works all the way to 600 now. Thank you so much for the tip, unvoid! :)
