[Party Plugin] SimpleFollow - Multi-Bot Party Plugin

Is Trinity necessary for this plugin? Or does it also work with combat routines.

I think trinity is required for everything to work anymore.. Since trinity is the only supported combat routine now. (Dont know that for sure, but you can try it).. If you did get it working without trinity id imagine it would not work very good.
 
how can i use 2 d3 accounts to do the same chests run? first acc load actual chests profile while the second account load simplefollow?
 
trying to use this on wortham merchant, any recommended settings for follower ? maybe a way for him to just stay in town after he joins party ?... or maybe there is a better way of powerleveling ? all info would be good

Well, i got it running pretty good, but would prefer if follower just stayed in town.


Also leaderbot bug:
bot will start a game, open social window to invite follower, game freezes, bot leaves game and start over in a loop like that

It litterally worked for 3-4 games.. then when i try and start and stop both the bots, same thing happens

anyone got some advice on this ?

Hello Projectcarry. I am a big fan of Kevins short profiles. They have historically been the most consistently stable/afkable profiles available for the last 2 months. Unfortunarely, SimpleFollow doesn't share my enthusiasm. It HATES short profiles. Between join-leave-rejoining, wonky out of game detection, and quick zone changing confusing followers it seems SimpleFollow just isn't designed to cater to short profiles like Ghom.

Luckily, the plugins code is actually super easy to understand and modify so I put a lot of time trying out various tweaks to get SimpleFollow working smoothly. I tweaked the plugin to work much better with Manglemaw when it was popular and now I've done the same for Ghom.

This is certainly not a perfect solution but it performs 5 times better than 'stock' SimpleFollow. I can AFK this over night and it will only break if my Follower dies (like if Ghom decides to target him out of 10 pets for 10 attacks in a row - Very rare)

This is set up to work for Ghom ONLY.

How To Use
  1. Download FollowTag.cs, Ghom_SF_Optimised.xml, and SimpleFollow.xml from the attachments section.
  2. Go to DemonBuddy/Plugins/SimpleFollow. Find the file there called FollowTag.cs and rename it to "backup" with no file extension. - If you use multiple DB folders make sure you are in your FOLLOWERS folder.
  3. Place your newly downloaded FollowTag.cs in that same folder.
  4. Open or Restart DemonBuddy.
  5. Load Ghom_SF_Optimised.xml as your leaders profile.
  6. Load the newly downloaded SimpleFollow.xml as your followers profile.
  7. Change your leaders new game timer to at least 5 seconds between games.
  8. Enjoy a smoother bot!

What Has Changed
  • Removed the leader-in-game checking that constantly makes followers join-leave-rejoin every game. There is no need for this check when running Ghom.
  • Followers will now wait in town for your leader to start the boss fight. This cuts out a loading screen and stops your leader getting confused when followers dont immediately accept a boss prompt (ie prompt appears during loading).
  • Followers can now only leave game from the boss room.
  • Followers now leave game when leader uses TownPortal. These 2 prevent a bug that occurred where my Followers seemed to randomly leave game before the leader could then rejoin and sit in town while the leader was out of game.
  • The quest NPC right next to the spawn point has been blacklisted. Prevents Followers ignoring a boss prompt if they are currently talking to that dude.
  • :Leader will no longer leave game outside the boss room if there is a 0.1 second delay on the boss prompt.

This works best when only looting legendaries. Town runs works most of the time but 1 out of 15 or so times the leader will teleport out of Ghoms room and townrun rather than townrunning at the start of a new game. This breaks followers.
Lastly, your followers need to be able to survive. If they die and the boss isn't killed within 2-3 seconds after that then they will return to town.

Hey, just noticed the post.
Thanks alot for your effort. I'll get it testing right now!

I forgot something.

Composites.cs was not attached. A change in this file fixes the last remaining bug. I am now running SimpleFollow flawlessly with Ghom - no errors/crashes/failures in the last 4 hours.

Check the post again and download Composites.cs. Put this in the same folder where FollowTag.cs goes (and dont forget to back up the original copy).

Remember, if you want to go back to botting a normal profile like all-acts campaign by rrrix then you need to revert FollowTag.cs and Composites.cs back to their original files. My changes break nearly every other profile except Ghom.

Perfect, thank you.

Honestly Ghom is the best profile i found so far. A stable 1.4b exp and 2.5 lph. Already got 600 p level on one of the accounts.
But yeah, i'll get on it asap. If you could also pm me your PP for the "big thank you" :)
 
Also, Follower's window just crashed after the log out. (The diablo 3 itself) I'm not sure what's the deal.

P.S. Using Beta 394, Trinity .26

Help plz !
 
The leaderbot will start a game, Open social window, game freezes..leaves game... start a new one..... infinite loop like that

wtf is wrong ?
 
Hehe its cool. This bot and plugins seems to have a mind of there own for me. Tinker / Tweak / Re-Install / Repeat.

There is a dose of AI logic in botting :)

I can't always promise the "intelligence" part of the AI though, but I do try!
 
I am flaming alot today but.

First team of 2 bots are runing perfectly (The ghom profile)
Now, how do i create the second server for the 2nd team? because when i launch the 3rd and 4th bot they seem to try and connect with the 1st set of bots.
 
How can i make the follower bot stay in town, and decline boss invite... i wanna powerlevel on ghom

Probably need to post the logs for that.. Leader.zip / Follower.zip

Not quite sure what you are asking.. You want to run 2 teams of 2 players? Why not 1 team of 4? (Or am I not understanding what you're asking?)
If you're asking about the 2 of 2 are you wanting to run 2 teams of 2 on 1 PC or 2 teams of 2 on separate computers?

2 teams of 2 on 1 computer. Can't really run them in 1 party because of the gear difference. They will just all die in t6.
Also, the problem with game crashing still persist. Right when the follower bot logs out sometime the game just crashes

Hmmmm Never been asked about 2x2 on one machine. I'll think on that for a bit.. Hopefully if someone else is doing it they might answer first.. Its 11p here right now and I gotta get to bed so i can get up in 6hours. :D .. I'll check tomorrow at work and see if you got an answer for this. Goodnight! :)
