[Quest Behavior] InstanceTimer

[AknA]

FAQ!

What is InstanceTimer?
InstanceTimer is a Quest Behavior that is a variation of WaitTimer done by Nesox.

What does InstanceTimer do ?
InstanceTimer is a Quest Behavior developed to prevent that you get "You've entered too many instances".
When you enter a instance you start the timer.
When you have done your instance run you check the timer to see how long you have been in the instance.
Calculated from that InstanceTimer will create a WaitTimer from that.

How do I use this ?
In a quest profile to start the timer use :

<CustomBehavior File="Misc\InstanceTimer" Timer="Start" />

To check how long you have been in instance and create a wait timer use:

<CustomBehavior File="Misc\InstanceTimer" Timer="Check" />

The default wait time is 12min 30sec - the time you spent in instance.
If you want to alter the wait time use :

<CustomBehavior File="Misc\InstanceTimer" Timer="Check" WaitTime="10000" />

WaitTime is in milliseconds and in above case is 10 seconds - the time you spent in instance.

This doesn't work ?
Then please write a post and include a log and explain what isn't working.

I love this, do you accept donations ?
Yes, at the bottom of the post you can see a link if you have a coin to spare.

How do I install this ?
This QB is now included with the official release of Honorbuddy.

SVN is updated with the new way to load QB's.

You might wanna update file in first post, only fresh one from SVN is working. Awesome work

 

[cepth]

this is amazing thank you, and to no1knowsy for pointing me in this direction

I'm hiting instance lockouts even with waits (It absolutly does wait, but not long enough it seems), witch is odd... Is the timer bugged? Does anyone else suffer from getting error "You have entered too many instances recently" even with this quest behaviour?

 

[cepth]

Have you edited the profile accordingly ? I downloaded it yesterday and it works perfectly

 

[pbutts]

anyone know how to add something like this to a profile like this? I'm trying to learn how to do all of this on my own, and edit profiles etc. This looks like it may be able to help me figure a way to make this profile RAF types non-afk. botanist-hb-profiles - Revision 565: /trunk/RAF Power Leveling thanks in advance.

 

[cepth]

I will have a look when I get home from work if no one else has done it by then

Then the waittimer isn't set high enough if you have that problem, the default setting is 12min, 30 secs (so on 5 instance runs, that is 1hour and 5 minutes). If it still isn't enough, then change this line in the profile :

<CustomBehavior File="Misc\InstanceTimer" Timer="Check" />

To this :

<CustomBehavior File="Misc\InstanceTimer" Timer="Check" WaitTime="78000" />

78000 milliseconds is 13 mins, if that still isn't enough, the raise that time abit more.

 

[AknA]

Sorry, it should of course be another 0 in above example, it should be 780000 and nothing else

Its working correctly, I checked with wow stopwatch and external stopper. Since lock is account wide, I think I has lock from another char with wasnt timeout'ed yet. Thanks for response.
