Running in circles on quest

[Ordell]

So I noticed the bot was just circling point to point in Blade's Edge Mountains while running the Kick script and working on The Bladespire Threat quest. He just kept flying point to point around the ogre camp but not killing the ogres who were in plain sight. I stopped the script and went and killed the ogres manually, but the way he was moving would be a dead giveaway to other players.

It did this earlier in another zone, bouncing between three spots but not doing anything. I stopped the script and abandoned the quest. Sorry, don't remember what it was.

It did it again, this time in Area 52.. It kept running from point to point during "That Little Extra Kick" while ignoring all the nearby Nether Rays it was supposed to kill. Had to stop the bot and kill manually.

The bot seems to have issues with 'grind mob' quests that are handled by the <Objective/> tag if the player is able to fly.
For these quests, the flying must be turned off on the profile level, I'll look into the two quests you mentioned and will fix them up.

Since you've made the report, have you come across the issue anymore?

Yeah it happened a few more times in higher level zones. I can't remember which. But it keeps happening. I'll make note if it happens again. I've also got a problem with random disconnects, which seem to have started when I hit level 60 or so. In the lower levels they never happened. Now it's about once an hour.

I have the same issue on the quest "A gronnling problem" in Frostfire Ridge.
It just kept running around the area, without attacking the last gronnling it needed to complete the quest. Even those it aggroed running throug, it seemed to ignore.

Edit: It now did the exact same thing for 1-2 minutes with the quest "What we need" in Frostfire Ridge. I didn't attach any logs for this, since it seems to be a general issue.

Alright, I'll chat with the others to see if we can have the <Objective/> tag investigated a bit.
Thanks for the reports/logs!

Also - the disconnects could be a number of things, but the profile wouldn't cause it.
I'm not entirely familiar with all the sorts of 'disconnect' causes, perhaps another moderator can chime in on that.

And this was with 'flying' as well?

we need to check your log files for that one

I've been uploading them.

The latest screw up: I'm in the Borean Tundra doing the "Put Them to Rest" quest. The bot has my toon zipping around like a hummingbird with repeated "We are stuck" errors in the HB window, except I'm on an open plain with nothing around me. I stop the bot and move away, it moves right back and gets stuck again. So I'll have to finish this one manually.

No, ground mount.
I haven't finished Pathfinder yet.

However, if it's the case that the other user is getting spammed with "I'm stuck" errors, it might not be related at all.

The thing I'm seeing every once in a while, on random "kill mobs quests", is the bot walking right past the NPC's it has to kill.
It runs back and forth the zone with the NPC's in it for a few minutes, until something dismounts it, or maybe there's another trigger, I'm not sure yet. It's been running just fine for the past 40 minutes, although I haven't been watching it as closely as before.

For whatever reason, the bot is having range issues with the corpses.
The behavior 'moves' to interact with the corpse, then 'moves' to get distance from the corpse - which then it gets in that loop.

I'm not sure why it would be doing this, however it may be fixable by adjusting the range settings on the InteractWith used for this behavior.
Just curious - when was the last time you tried a fresh install of the bot?

About two weeks ago, and there was an update just the other day. So far it seems to be behaving itself.
