genbot.mac Generic Bot macro for any class. V8 with ini

The variable @PatchSpell is referred to as @PatchHealSpell in some cases...

Sub Patchheal 
   /if n @Param0==$char(id) { 
      /if @Param0!=$target(id) /target myself 
   } 
   /if @Param0!=$char(id) { 
      /if $target(id)!=@Param0 /target id @Param0 
   } 
   /delay 1 
   /stand 
   /if n @CastMsgTimer1<=0 { 
      /if n @ReportAutoHeal==1 /g @PatchhealMsg 
      /varset CastMsgTimer1 50 
   } 
   /if n $char(gem,"@PatchhealSpell")>0 /cast "@PatchhealSpell" 
   /if n @SitAfterCast==1 /varset SitTimer @DelayBeforeSit 
   /press esc 
/return

Also in the same section, the "/g @PatchhealMsg" didn't work until I changed it to "/g @PatchHealMsg" ... caps matters?

Corrected section below:

Code: Select all

Sub Patchheal 
   /if n @Param0==$char(id) { 
      /if @Param0!=$target(id) /target myself 
   } 
   /if @Param0!=$char(id) { 
      /if $target(id)!=@Param0 /target id @Param0 
   } 
   /delay 1 
   /stand 
   /if n @CastMsgTimer1<=0 { 
      /if n @ReportAutoHeal==1 /g @PatchHealMsg 
      /varset CastMsgTimer1 50 
   } 
   /if n $char(gem,"@PatchSpell")>0 /cast "@PatchSpell" 
   /if n @SitAfterCast==1 /varset SitTimer @DelayBeforeSit 
   /press esc 
/return

Also while I'm here, is there an easy way that I'm missing using this script to have a melee assist on a target without sending a command (that's built into this already)?

Great work!!

Updated bothealer with the Patch Heal fix from Vaelin.

I've canceled billing on all of my accounts and probably won't be playing anymore at least for a while(forever if I can get a decent offer on my accounts) so chances are I won't be doing many updates to genbot.

Thanks

Aye, a really nice macro GJ. Hate to see ya go because now that means I have to update my own scripts. Damn you for making my lazy ass work!

See ya around, and have a happy christmas/holidays.

Will miss your great macros Grim.

Good luck kicking the habbit!

I understand there will probably not be any further development of this wonderful macro but it is so awesome already I plan to use it extensively.

I'm still very much in the learning process, both of this macro and MQ2.

I have a couple of questions and possible issues for you genbot experts out there.

What exactly is the loadlist command supposed to do. I assumed it was to have to bot load a saved list of spells. Is that incorrect? If not, I can't seem to get it to work so what is the syntax I should use so I can be sure I'm doing it correctly.

I'm want to bot 3 chars, necro, shammy, and cleric. 2 on 1 machine with the master, using EQW and one on a separate machine (laptop).

They all answer and respond to basic commands, sit, stand, cmds, afollow, stop, etc, however, I have not been able to get some of the more difficult commands to work. For instance, I cannot get my shammy to buff or groupbuff. Buff works fine with the cleric.

This issue is also tied to the first question about the loadlist syntax since the shammy would need to load different lists to buff for individuals and for group.

I'm assuming I can do what I am trying to do but if not please correct me and if this can be done please enlighten me to the correct way.

Last question, is there a way to make the necro watch the mana of other characters and "twitch" them if they are low. Something similiar to the clerics watchtarget maybe? If it's not already built in, I'll just put that on my project list once I have other things working smoothly.

Thanks in advance for the assistance. I sure hope someone picks up the development of this excellent piece pof programming!!

Edit:
OK the loadlist is working this morning, never would last night. /msg charname groupbuff or /msg charname buff charname is still not working though. Is that syntax correct?

With respect to grimjack; I've picked up the ball on genbot code, until he comes back.

v9 of genbot.mac

OK the loadlist is working this morning, never would last night. /msg charname groupbuff or /msg charname buff charname is still not working though. Is that syntax correct?

/msg charname groupbuff me
or
/msg charname groupbuff otherplayer

same with "buff". Make sure you setup the genbot_charname.ini though. It requires the buff/groupbuff values filled in.

Most excellent! Glad to hear you are willing to do that. Grim has certainly carried the ball on this for a LONG time and done an excellent job. I'm sure you will do the same.

Tried your suggestion, in fact it is what I was already doing. The bot targets the char named to buff but just never starts casting anything. I do have the spells listed in the proper places in the genbot_charname.ini.

Do the spells listed in the .ini need quotes around them if they have spaces? In other words, multi word names like complete healing?

As I said, the 58 cleric works fine. He's the character on the separate machine by himeself. Only have one buff listed for him, temperance. He will cast it on all the other characters and himself, no problem.

I've compared the .ini's and they all are similiar except of course for different names and spells.

Other thoughts to try?

Thanks!

In reference to your comments, here is a sample from one of my shaman .ini's:

Code: Select all

BuffSpell1=Focus of Soul
BuffSpell2=Name of Buff spell 2
BuffSpell3=Name of Buff spell 3
BuffSpell4=Name of Buff spell 4
BuffSpell5=Name of Buff spell 5
BuffSpell7=Name of Buff spell 7
BuffSpell8=Name of Buff spell 8
GBuffSpell1=Khura's Focusing
GBuffSpell2=Talisman of the Boar
GBuffSpell3=Talisman of the Wrulan
GBuffSpell4=Spirit of Bih`Li
GBuffSpell5=Name of Group Buff spell 5
GBuffSpell6=Name of Group Buff spell 6
GBuffSpell7=Name of Group Buff spell 7
GBuffSpell8=Name of Group Buff spell 8

Watch out for the using the proper "tick" direction. ' is not the same as `.

I am going my first attempt at running this marveled macro. I will be using a shaman, warrior, mage combo. Can someone give me a quick checklist of what I need to do before initial run.

Also, if you can give a breack checklist of an example of the warrior being the master and wanting the shaman to cast a buff spell on him..and the mage casting a Damage shield on the warrior as well.

I have read the forums and have a partial idea and I admit I would love to see a readme.doc file but I also know that is last on list of priorties.

Appreciate any checklists you can jot down for me.

My most humble apologies.

It appears this was my DOH. I had started MQ2 from the folder on my laptop by mistake, so it of course was not reading the changes I was making in the .ini files on my main computer.

Everything to this point now appears to be working great.

Now next project is to add the shammy canni that is found elsewhere in this thread.

Thanks for the quick response and again sorry for wasting you time. I should know by now to check the most obvious things first.

Check out v9 at this link here:

http://macroquest2.com/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=4796

It already has canning included. I'd like to try to get all further replies focused on that topic since that's the codebase I'll be supporting.
