[PLUGIN] Pokebuddy - Gotto kill em all!

[Yuudas99]

Hello, LOVE your plugin. In a few days ive levelled 10 pets to 25, and gained near to 30 levels. But i have a small question about this, ive tried using 10,15 and 20lvl skills but i cant get my pets to use those. For some pets it would be quite vital to get these skills into use, so is it even possible at this stage to make bot use them? Is there some setting ive missed.

Thanks in advance.

was sure i covered this earlier, yep, skip to the end of this post, which covers the step by step.

essentially, stop HB, switch to pet journal, change the skill layout, switch to HB & open Pokeh settings, refresh the pet info, save the pet info inside pokehbuddy, make the logic changes, save again. this should "bake" the changes into the settings per pet.

there's not really a quick way to do this, but you only need to do it once or twice.

i suppose, if you're "collecting 'em all", most of the pandaren captures will be 21/22, which means less manual re-writing of files... (a very thin silver lining ...)

 

[justicero]

i have not tested this out, so, YMMV.

starting with the same pet, IDK. it's not hard to do.
it's everything afterwards.

i believe you can get this to work if you disable the pet swapping/ratings on the advanced tab, with the "I knao whatz do wif buttons, heet mah to Proseedz in your Pets o Batizzleszs" option. (i may be contemporising the title of the GUI item.)

of course, this requires knowing what to do after this point, and also requires knowing how to set up a new pet rating system, and the conditions you would have in mind that would benefit from doing so.

from there, i *believe* you can then edit the first pet slot loaded on the first tab,

which hard-sets the pet order for the swaps. but, at the moment, the rating system works as a "empty shell" for equal level pet battles, and the rating system handles all sorts of conditions for regular battles. replacing it with ... nothing, would do as you require, but it's everything else that would be disabled in the process.


if i speculate,
it's semi-useful for PvP to put up a buff from the val'kyr, anubisath idol, crow, or something longer lasting, an aura/effect, like darkness, or a stun, different weather,

also for power-levelling pets. you'd probably want a meta-condition that ranks pets with 100% health, below level 25, as 12,300 (random high number) and then rank them as -11,000 (random low number) once they drop below 99%, forcing them to the bottom of the swap list. or treated as dead.

and, while that seems valid, what if there's 2 pets below 25, 1 level 25, and the level 25 pet dies. it would have to forfeit the fight entirely if all 3 read as dead. so, yes, it's complicated.

speculatively,

there's a possibility of adding in swap-logic, i.e. choosing how and when to swap in pets, it's very much outside the current pokehbuddy design, because

1/ it would not work like the rating system, it would have to replace the rating system or use the numeric rating system, as indicated in the example with specific switches or new variables that require situations
2/ you'd have to work out those situations ahead of time.
3/ and put code up to do things under those situations.
4/ a meta-logic like this, would have to override per-pet logic for certain odd events, like auras, weather and stun/polymorph/suicides and future random hijinks.
5/ doing so, would mean having a list of things to do with that setting, which would get more confusing than it currently is.

6/ if you think 4 to 24 lines of conditions is bad ... heh.

you'd need
a list of pets in your team (or a handful of "counters" as unique stored pets, or "counter Teams" stored for PvP)

someone to actually test these teams out and put in all the ID's and layouts for you.

a list of enemy pets, or their auras and abilities.
what they can counter,
what their main cooldown is
how to counter specific enemy abilities (by pet name)
when to swap,
what to swap to
... if you need specific pets to swap in against enemy pets
storing the current cooldown for specific enemy pets,
remembering how long an ability has a cooldown for, so you can swap in pets to "absorb" a cooldown, etc.
keeping up an aura or buff on a team by swapping in that pet or pets to keep that buff alive.

and then, storing all of that, or keeping a set of teams ... a normal team would be 1 unique pet each slot, so the number of teams is 551 x 550 x 549 ... a small number of possible options. well, mathematically.
you can also have 3 of the same pet, so the number's slightly larger, 551x551x551. if you remove the duplicate critters and so on, but add in the breed types, it goes up again. etc. my memory of grade school memory about coin tosses and probability experience/memory is rough, but i'm sure it's more like ... 650! because of the max number of pets you can have under a b.net account, and not the maximum possilbe pets. 650! is ... large.



eventually.

until it becomes a necessity for raiding or dailies or something more potentially exploitative,

it's still a hobby. and should be enjoyed or ... tolerated ... etc.

and while it's difficult to get working,
it just needs someone else, or yourself, to do the work... and therein lies the complication

Hi again,

I tried any sort of combination seems it doesn't work.
I will tell you the short story.

Find a low populated realm.
2 accounts each one with 3 pets, let's say lvl 25 lvl 12 and lvl 13.
Pet battle via pvp pet battle que. ( you have 99% chance to meet each other if you use same realm same faction).
Each time i want to start with lvl 25 pet and stay with that one on both accounts.
I don't want lvl 12 or 13 pet for any of the accounts to be involved in battle because they will lvl up and in next que they won't meet each other....
Lvl 25 pets will cast a low ability which make a small dmg for each account, also they are setup to forfeit when hp it is at 50% for example and the other account at 60% in this way i make the battle to be longer than 1 minute to get char lvl ( in that way i control the winner) / done this already.
My main problem it is after a while i end up meting my lvl 25 pet from 1 account with the lvl 12 / lvl 13 pets from other account which again will mess up everything.

Thank you in advance.

Win trading like this, is ... going to be difficult.

the problems are

1. you can't forfeit and get XP,

2. you can farm the legendary PvP achievement with auto-forfeit's, but it will take ... 10,000 rounds for both accounts. roughly. and there's no counter visible, from what i understand, you just have to wintrade for days past the 1000 mark.

you can take turns or break it up over days, etc.
it won't get you the brutal/trainer title achieves, or the direhorn, those require a full 25 team in the "find battle" pvp queue ... and there's 4 achievements that use the PvP Queue.

but if you just want the regular win achievements, this would be the way to get it i suppose.

i can think of 5-6 achieves doable, mostly the win 5 rounds/ 10 rounds without a pet dying achieves, and the 10/50/250/1000/5000 battler achieves.

3. the win trade won't work unless you make a certain number of rounds, pass counts as a round in this example, passing all turns on low level pets/high level pets is also a strategy i suppose...

4. you don't need a lot to make win trading work, you don't even need Pokeh.
i.e. put A next to B, run 2 macros/plugins on each. A asks, B accepts.

the details are on [Achievement] Farm PVP Pet Battle wins for achievements. (requires 2 accounts)

5. if you backtrack in this thread, you can find an old wintrader plugin that just does this.

6. i suppose you might have 2 line logics, i don't know how the forfeit rules work for time ...

but
here's a "don king special", i.e. they'll start to fight each other, then give up entirely once they've taken 1 or good 2 hits

on the lvl 25, let's say a direhorn ... (castspell 3 if health is above 80, forfeit if health is below 81)
for the lvl 10 pets, (swapout if health is above 80, forfeit if health is below 81)

then, wait for one or the other pet to die horribly.

set those logics up on both toons, and RNG will make one win, and one lose, without it being too predictable.
if you're noticing A lose more often, change the numbers to 70/71 or 50/51 or 30/31 as needed.
if the win isn't counted, adjust the health on both pets down to 40/41 or 20/21 to make them fight longer.

one should forfeit first, so you won't get XP for the ringer pets, just a long drawn out show with no purpose. Just like the WWF ...
Kayfabe - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Main/Kayfabe - Television Tropes & Idioms

and part 3,
in pokehbuddy, under the advanced tab, change the level slider from -10 to 10, that's it.
it should always start with the high level pet, change to 30 or 50 if you're concerned.

7. unless you're facing an enemy that can disable/sleep your first pet. e.g. there's like 8 of them that can, and are used a ton in PvP for this purpose against direhorns, etc.

this should be expedient, and handle the first minute problem of forfeits not counting wins/losses in fights < 1 minute.

Try this little doodle... put it in HB\Plugins\WinTrader
You will need 2 HB folders, for each char that you're using to win trade.
You will have to hardcode the opponents pet names (Pet#1, Pet#2, Pet#3 in the file)
For the account that has to lose, press the WinTrader settings button ONCE

Put both characters in 1 party. Press start on both HB's.
Now type something in partychat and it should go. (if it doesnt, try on the other toon)

As long as the pet in the 1st slot is a lvl 25, you shouldnt be getting XP on the other pets.

Oh and you dont need pokehbuddy for this to work. It will only screw things up.

thanks for the reply maybe; i ran into another problem.

I made a condition in the default logic under advanced settings like this: SWAPOUT MyPetLevel ISLESSTHAN 25 $ PetHP ISLESSTHAN 90

but now when i try to run it, all i get is

Probably my fault, but PetHP should be Health(THISPET).
If that doesnt solve it, post your default logic xml & the pet xml.

 

[change1378]

you're a goddamn genius. next paycheck you're having a pizza on me.

 

[change1378]

personally i use 2 ringers and 1 pet to be leveled. (must get the plugin called pet swapper)

then i add this custom rule as the first rule in the default logic.xml file (in the pokebuddy folder)

SWAPOUT MyPetLevel ISLESSTHAN 25 $ Health(THISPET) ISLESSTHAN 90

then at the top left of "advanced settings" in pokebuddy settings i make sure i load the default leveling settings. (choose default leveling and hit load preset button)

it's been going flawless for the past 5 hours.

P.S. i like to use the "only use favorites as ringers" and use clockwork gnome/kun lai runt as my ringers. they hit hard and keep themselves healed.

Guys, im doing some heavy work on the plugin atm.
Building a lot of new cool features, not gonna spoil the surprise yet though.

BUT....

Any really pressing matters that i missed? Bugs, requests, anything?

 

[maybe]

Oh i think i fixed the endless swapping bug, might need more testing though...

I dont have that pet so i cant help you.
But go into a pet battle manually. Cast Frost shock and go to the logic editor. Select the pet & click refresh.
Press Enemy buffs. There should be only one number in the list on top. doubleclick it.
In the dropdownboxes select "CASTSPELL(2)" "HASENEMYBUFF(X)" "EQUALS" "false"
Press finish, and move it up in the list.
Now in the dropdownboxes select "CASTSPELL(3)" "HASENEMYBUFF(X)" "EQUALS" "true"
Press finish, and move it up in the list.
Press save.

U should be fine now.

Hello, i've tryed everything you've said but it's not working
When i open my Plugins i have Pokehbuddy and PetArea enabled
Using GatherBuddy2
When i open Pokebuddy
ImageShack? - Online Photo and Video Hosting
ImageShack? - Online Photo and Video Hosting - As you can see i did put PvPPetBattles every 1-2 mins, but still this bot won't be sitting and PvPing, he will move to profile zone example Krasrang Wilds, i hope that you can help me because it's more simpe i just want bot to afk somewhere and do PvP Pet Battles without moving.
Just to add also if i put pvp every 1-2 mins, how can i run it to just pvp Honorbuddy says that it REQUIRES profile to work..

pet area defines where he has to go depends on the level of your lowest pet (just started using it 2 days ago so i might be wrong).

bug?
one thing that i have noticed:
if your 3rd pet is low hp, it will swap again the other 2 in, and they will die.
not sure if i did something wrong, just ran with default settings.

 

[LifëbloomSR]

Hmm Bug ? I did never mention that i just want to know if it's possible that my bot just do PvP PetBattles not to level em, it's easy to level but i want to do 3x 25 lvl pets vs 3 x 25 lvl pets PvP For achievements

Just put the botbase on Combatbot... should stop the flying.

No its a bug im afraid, one i thought i fixed.... *sigh* will do a more drastic method...

 

[samalone]

I am in need of reclarification of certain sliders do? HP FACTOR ADVANTAGE FACTOR and DISADVATAGE FACTOR and LEVEL difference factor

can someone tell me how to adjust these if I want to have 2 level 25's level a level one and just let the level one hit the opponent once and then swap it out as fast as possible.

Thanks alot guys for doing so much work!!!
