Plugin development and bot command queue/scheduling

[umeshoryu]

Hey guys,

I'm interested in solving a few problems I have currently in PoE using EB, currently stash sorting and rearranging large messy inventories, but I need a little help. One of the main things I'm wondering is how the main structure of the bot application works.

So we have bots, routines, and plugins. How do these things interact with eachother? Does the Bot control the overall destination of what is happening, i.e. questing or mapping, and the routine itself goes through the motions of heading to stash to grab things, sell, then doing the actual combat?

How do plugins fit in to this, how do I force a plugin to jump to the head of the queue, which plugins take priority over others, etc.

I can piece together most of what I need to do from existing functions from CommunityLib and others, I'm just a little foggy on how everything interacts together overall. If anyone could give me a quick rundown on this it would save me a ton of time of combing through every cs file available from the base installation and let me get to work.

I'd also be interested in making a little more direct getting started guide for the plugin creation after getting this information.

Thanks.

Read everything there, it's all relevant. The core design of tasks using a task manager to propagate in a linear logic applies.
