Sorry, If I posted this into the wrong section.


Is it possible for the devs to make hb in such a way so that other people who create plugins, cc's and profiles wouldn't have to debug it so much because of the each time with the new hb appearing bugs? There aren't that many members of the community who are willing to invest their time for free each time the new hb comes out. If we lose those guys, who will support the community then?

Edit: to make it clear. New honorbuddy comes out --> good people invest their time into amending existing profiles, ccs. NOT new World of Warcraft patch comes out, which is obvious in this case everything has to be updated .

What your not understanding is that the developers aren't making it so hard on purpose. They have to mend their program to Blizzard, and Blizzard breaks our bot easily with their updates. The bot takes countless hours to be updated to work with Blizzard and the CC's and Plugins I will say do take some time, but profiles can be at most an hour or two. Everyone has to put in a modicum of effort to keep this bot working. We are the Buddy community and we should help out to keep this great botting service alive and the money we give them is only half the battle.

I meant not the new World of Warcraft patch comes out, but each time a new Honorbuddy is released the profiles, ccs etc. have to be debugged by people who selfunforgiveably invest their free time into it.

Hopefully this will be the last build where it breaks stuff so badly.

There are changes to the API. Most of them required due to the changes in the patch. The others simply because now is the best time to change some things. (With everything else being mostly broken at this point, we might as well fix some stuff that has been bugging us.)

In other words; hopefully, the next release will be the last one that breaks stuff.

I like the sound of this = )

Hmm it seems your not understanding, and it's kinda complicated to say the least but I have a general knowledge of crap like this so heres my best explaination as to why we keep having to change Plugins, CC's, and Profiles.

Profiles = These shouldn't need to be updated much anymore unless we add new functions. For example sooner or later probably when Cataclysm is far into its making we might have some freaky system that figures out the best place to grind! So then we would have to update our profiles. [Profiles will be the least time consuming and least often to update]

Custom Classes = These really don't update unless.. 1. WoW changes their classes up, 2. Honorbuddy updates and they need to be compiled to function with it and so forth (not going into detail just saying compatibility)

Plugins = well.. wow can remove functions it uses, honorbuddy needs to update so its needs to be recompiled.. its way over both of our heads just to say..

Like I said before we cant keep compatibility the same. Blizzards updates are going to do much more harm than good on our end.

Apoc was just saying that this would hopefully be the last time the hb api will change.
