[Plugin] SimpleFollower - Another Battleground follower plugin

After playing around with PvP, I noticed that there aren't really any plugins which makes DPS classes "follow the pack" in battlegrounds, so I started to code my own.
The original idea was taken from the great Squire plugin by bobby53.

It was only tested with my own CC, SimpleDK so it might not work with other CCs. Let me know if it doesn't and I'll try to fix it.

Give it a try and lemme know if you find any bugs and please attach your logs when reporting bugs.
Attach logs, do not paste into the forum.

Lastly feel free to copy any code you like, I don't mind. More good code for the community.
And there won't be a donate button, I'm developing this plugin for fun not profit. And besides if it's free, you can't demand customer service

HOW TO INSTALL:
Just extract the zip file into your Plugins directory, e.g. c:\honorbuddy\Plugins

KNOWN ISSUES:
HB will think it is stuck alot, resulting in the bot moving back and forth and jumping around.

Changelog:
0.1:
Initial version

0.2:
Major changes, will now follow a group of at least 3 players, instead of a specific player and will randomly change who to follow in that group.
Just runs HB profile in Isle of Conquest and SotA, because it does not understand the portals.

0.2.1:
Bumped version number to 0.2.1

0.2.2:
Disabled experimental path following since it seems to cause bot to get stuck alot.
Disabled trying to mount while indoors.
Fixed the bug which caused bot to run away from the fight, when trying to start combat.
Added pull spell back to initiate combat: Change spell name in Settings.cs to your class' pull spell.

0.2.3:
Enabled Experimental Path Following since that seems to work best with the latest HB.

 

I'm gonna give this a shot with a 85 Unholy DK and your latest version of SimpleDK when I get home from work in a couple hours. I'll will certainly let you know how it works out. Thanks for all your time and effort towards the community here

 

Great mate testing now will report back, also it should use group logic to move ina group like in IB, also i trhink you should rename your things from simple, the only thing simple is the set up, apart from that the routines and everything else is top notch

 

Will test it tomorrow. Thanks and +Rep^^

 

Great work will give this a try along with your dk cc

 

As this currently follows 1 player in an attempt to follow the pack type movement, could it not instead scan for multiple people and then move in a group like IB does because sometimes its well obvious when your following one player. Or try and find there most player in your team are situated? or it it comes acroiss a group try and stay with max players? Also is there anyway to incorporate capturing points such as the ones in AB

 

Ran this on AB using your DK CC. Worked awesomly. +Rep. Squire for Healers, this plugin for DPS! +REP

Dismounts a little too much but nothing major at all.

Great for DPS. Would love to see what people think using some other DPS CCs. Will try it on my War tomorrow.

Send me ur donation link!

 

I?d like to know witch HB opt need to use on BG?s.....
Combat/healer? PVP?
Do I need to choose the map, or automatic as IB do in instances???
I hv Shaman Elemental (thanks bobby53) and a Frost mage.
Never went to BG....
Any help? Thanks a lot

 

Worked fine for me. Did exactly what it's suppose to, but didn't really notice any benefit to this for my DK in AB. In AV it definitely helped keep him with "the herd" more though. All in all I like it!

 

You can do mixed mode (grinds while it queues for a BG)

Or PVP, which basically just stands still while it queues.

Bot settings: Click the BGs to queue for.

 

I like this plugin but i've noticed while baby sitting my Bot that it will sometimes follow inactive targets and simply stand there behind them. Some people also notice that its following them.

It just needs better ranged dps support.

 

Gonna give a try.. thanks Lockwood

 

If target has 0 players around him the bot should not follow the player as it ended up following a guy running in a way the other day.

 

It will stay at inactive targets for up to 30 seconds before blacklisting them and picking a new target, or running profile if no other targets are around. That might need to be lowered though.

 

can you please bring it back... the new bg mode doesn't work for mixed mode stuff... which is amazing for leveling

 

It will need to be changed to follow groups like UndiluteD suggested, right now it is very easy to see that it is a bot. I'm working on that.

 

Version 0.2 uploaded with new Group follow logic.

 

Need to update version number inside of plugin currently still showing 0.1. Also can u take alook at DK movement issues.
Also would be good if it could target player which other players are attacking or lowest health palyer around?
