RAF just an Idea which should be simple to make

[Mr_Pibb]

I have just had an Idea... Isn?t it possible to create a plugin that easily supports raf questing? Lets say I want to level 3 chars with questing and use the raf bonus. Everytime they turn in a quest, they keep the npc in target and wait untill all other party members target the same npc (which they automatically will do when they turn in a quest). Then they unpause hb again. In that way, the partymembers alsways stay together.

Of course it would be eaven better if the bot would just target the npc, but pause the bot befor the turn in process. And turn in the quest when all others target that npc, that way it would be sure that all recive the bonus for turning in.

Of course they all have to be at the same quest level and run the same questprofiles.

I have tried lazyboxer, which works really good untill one char has more luck, loots more objets and runs away to turn in the quest before the others have all the objects. Then they are lost.

The partybot also only works for grinding, but not for questing.

following a character and doing what he is doing is not that hard to do in a plugin, it is possible.

There is several solutions for what you are trying to do. Try fpswares LazyBoxer. I believe Botanist makes a profile as well. Try searching next time.

Try reading next time. I?m trying to find a different way because the other ways don`t work.

Botanist has a good soution, but it is only for dungeons.

Lazyboxer works, but only if u play the master by hand. Because it doesn`t care if the slaves have looted all questitems and if they are ready to turn in a quest. And if that happens once, its over...

So a Plugin in combination with Lazyboxer botbase would be perfect.

What's wrong with running dungeons? The xp is great and virtually no chance of getting banned because you're always in an instance.

Nothing, but I just don`t want to level my chars only in dungeons, since some races need to quest almost till lvl 20 to leave their startzone + you need a high lvl char to push you. Anyhow I don`t want to dicuss the pro and contas of dungeon or questing, I just had an idea that I think is quite simple but effective

Hi, Mr_Pibb,

There was a discussion in the Community Developer forum a while back about some of the issues involved in trying to solve the problem only at a profile level. You can find the discussion [post=1101396]here[/post].

As Tonycos92 pointed out, FPSware tries to solve the problem using a Bot. You can find it here: [post=1205296][Bot] Fpsware's LazyBoxer[/post]. Looks promising, but to be honest, I've never tried it.

cheers,

Hi! I think most of you didn't try lazyboxer yet. Let me explain it: it folkows its leader, interacts with npcs that the leader targets, picks up and returns quests at npcs that the leader targets. It also interacts with objects in a certain range.

The problem is, it is "stupid" because it does not know what it does. Simple quests like kill 10 wolfes work great, because the leader starts killing the mobs, thy count for the group, as soon as 10 are killed the quest profile tells the leader to turn in the quest and the second bot follows and does the same.

But if there is a quest "collect 10 items" it does not work anymore because the lazyboxer bot does not know how many it should collect. As soon as the questbot collected it 10 items it will return the quest, lazyboxer will follow and try to return eaven if it only has 9 objects. Then it is unable to pickup the following quest.

Also it gets stuck if the questbot takes a flightpath because it dies not know where to fly.

If lauyboxer follows the questbot and gets aggro, it will dismount and fight. After the fight the leader is out of sight and lazyboxer will get stuck.

Lazyboxer is great but only if you play the leader by hand and wait for the follower.

Thats where my idea comes in. Both bots use a quest profile and know what to do and where to go. They simply wait for eachother before turning in a quest. This ensures that both will always get the raf bonus when turning in a quest and because they are always doing the same quest they will be in raf range 90% of the time and they will level fast as hell. I would code it myself but i don't know how.
