I'm surprised no one said, "Set up us the ban." in response to your, "All your characters are belong to me." lol

Let me take a wild guess: "Please Delete This Account" -> I think he wants his Account deleted, but no administrator is helping him?

Ot: Could you include the portals in SW or Orgrimmar in any way? If not I guess it doesn't matter that much, but you could add a feature like this:

"Random AFK in Orgrimmar / Stormwind (Call it Capital) -> just afk for a random amount, since that is something every player would do after a while right?"

You could also just make use of the MoP-Capital, then there is no need for portals.
*Make this option only usable for MoP then, or make it usable for every zone and autoselect:

If in:
BC then Shattrath?
Northrend then Dalaran
Cata then Org/SW
MoP then Vale of XYZ

Kind Regards

I'll look into the use of portals.

Is there anyway you could create/use Quest Behaviors within the bot base? If so, as long as you are based out of the MoP capital, it should be really easy to configure a "Hearthstone -> New Continent/Zone (take a Portal)". I've been putting it into most of my grinding profiles since I am too lazy to manually do this anymore on my bots.

Yep, and while you are at it, might as well make Farmer Joe replace every single bot built into honorbuddy. :)

I don't think you can just implement the questing logic and code into a botbase like that. I do the same for my profiles but a botbase is completely different.

Here's an idea:

Have Farmer Joe bring a plugin along called 'Transporter' or something. When navigation to another continent is required, Farmer Joe calls the plugin into action, which will:

1. Stop the bot
2. Switch bot to questing
3. Load a navigation profile
4. Stop the bot when destination is reached
5. Switch botbase to Farmer Joe
6. Start bot

Maybe all of that can be coded into the botbase instead of having a plug-in for it. It was just an idea I got from a plugin that does exactly this for depositing stuff in Mobile Banker.
 
love to give it a try fpsware. I lost all my farming bots a year or so ago and gave up. I'm tired of the part time job and would enjoy earning some extra cash off wow again ;)
 
Same here and i guess alot of us are in the same boat.
Since 'they' found out a way to ban us when using gb2 and farming like we used to, things got a pain.

Tbh, i find it strange that FPSWare (and not the devs) is the one that tries to go around this and at least make a good effort to try something.
The banning has been months ago, so there was time enough to at least try something i believe...

This one was a pain for me to complete. It is an absolute cluster fuck with HB navigation in its current form. The easy way is to Hard Code all entry and exits. I did it the hard way and rewrote how it navigates around them pragmatically.

Thanks, something to look forward to :)

Unlikely to happen sorry.

"Due to a rethink about how best to handle the massive quantity of node locations I've decided to redesign things a little. Beta testing is not as close as previously expected. Also, there are free cookies at reception."

Did you end up writing it all to SQL? I am working on that today and making relational databases sucks if you have never used SQL before btw =)

sql is brilliant, and has countless advantages to xml.

That is EXACTLY what I'll be working on next :)

That's what I'll be playing with today.

Yesterday I made some major changes to the XML format of the node maps and I was mostly happy with it, but after rethinking where I want to take Farmer Joe and how I want to use the node maps I've decided SQL, or at least a relational database, is the best way to go forward.

EDIT: I require all the node locations in a single database in order to efficently search, filter and order geographic location. This is required for a number of features; shopping list, multi-zone harvesting etc.
 
Update so far....

I've implemented a new database system, I am no longer using XML node maps and instead I'm using SQLite. This is the way I wanted to do it from the very start but my lacking knowledge in this area lead me to use XML as a stop-gap. As a result I'm delaying the beta testing, which I was hopeful to be underway by the end of the week. It is now likely to be another 1-2 weeks.

What does the new database mean for you?
It means I'll be able to properly implement the "shopping list" feature, all node locations for all zones in all continents will be in a single indexed, searchable database and this will result in significantly greater functionality in the future.
