Yes, in a different grp or different adventure as me or in a different grp on a normal raid. I have not raided in ldon but its mainly for normal raids or single grp ldon adventures.

On normal raids I might be in a chanter grp or in clr grp while my bot will be a different grp. On ldon adventures, my bot will on one adventure while my main will be on a seperate adventure in a different grp, no raid aventure either.

Thanks,

Rass

I don't actually see how you could successfully play two chars on two seperate adventures, botted or not :)

I am not even sure where I would begin, seems like the easiest way would be to let someone else be the bots master.

I have noticed that when the bot/s are fighting and a buff or two is dropping, I go to try and use one of the bots to rebuff that person and they run to their /guard spot first. If I do a group buff, its fine, the bot stays there, buffs the group buff and continues fighting. Its only when I try to cast single target buffs that seems to cause the bot to run to its /guard spot or home spot and they lets you cast a single target buff.

You have a piece of code I could input into the script that would allow hybrid classes to cast spells while fighting by chance? Something like snare for a SK, slow for a bst, grp heal/stun for a paladin, etc..

Thanks,

Rass

I don't have any caster melee hybrids to even try to test on, so no unfortunatly I don't. At some point, it would be quite cool to re-write the script to be more modular and support hybrid melee's and the other pure-melee classes as well. Maybe someday :)

Since I use this on 2 melee bots at the same time, is there a way to have once of them only attack from the back and use max melee distance? Its annoying that both of them fight to get right in front of the mob and then I have to heal 2 instead of just one.

Thanks,

If you turn off the taunt stuff, they should more just position themselves randomly. Of course, with push they would both end up at the front eventually :/

It is entirly possible, and as well as being possible its something I want to add but haven't. If you add it, please post the code!

It should be fairly easy to set a few variables and use code written for the rog macros... I just haven't gotten around to it ever.

Is this going to be updated with the new cvs version soon?

Thanks,

This probably won't be fixed until an eq patch stops the old MQ from working because I am quite lazy. When I go back and re-work it for the new MQ I will most likely take that time to re-do the entire script. I intend to make it a little more generic so it can handle warriors, rogs and monks. I also hope to make it more modular and have more features (most of them either borrowed in code or idea from other things).

If you can think of anything you would like mention it here:

Currently my plans are mainly the following:

[ ] Fight at the rear portion of the mob
[ ] Use rog and monk abilities like BS, evade and FD
[ ] Multiple owners
[ ] Agro / Hate list
[ ] Better mob fighting
[ ] Melee at max, min or any range
[ ] Limited AI (Aggressive, Passive, Defensive)
[ ] Checking of owner (being attacked, etc...)
