Upcoming Exilebuddy Maintenance (2.1.0)

Exilebuddy will be down for maintenance at the launch of the 2.1.0 content update tomorrow.

As with any big update, a new compatible version will be pushed as soon as we're comfortable the bot is as safe as possible and working. Given that a lot of minor patches are typically released in the first 24 hours, which require a new bot release if the client changes, we expect there to be a few days of downtime before a new Beta is pushed this weekend. Subsequently, updates may be sporadic throughout the first week of the content update, so EB might see additional downtime as the game stabilizes from changes once again.

This is just a heads up post for anyone who is unfamiliar with our updates. Users will be compensated for any extended downtime.

Thank you for reading!

 

Update 1: Based on how maintenance has progressed so far today, we expect a Beta version to hopefully be user testable around Monday at earliest. In terms of updates to the bot/API required, the 2.1.0 Content update is essentially an expansion (as it literally includes stuff for the upcoming expansion), so downtime will be much longer than any of the other minor patches released after the 2.0.0 expansion was released. Further updates will be posted in this thread later Sunday, as we look at the current state of the bot and decide if it's ready to be user tested or not.

Once again, we thank users for their patience, and you will be compensated for the extended downtime.

 

Update 2: Maintenance is progressing well, but there's significantly more that still needs to be updated/tested before a beta can be made. As a result, there's no longer a specific ETA when the next beta will be built, but hopefully it'll happen sometime mid-late this week. Progress updates will be posted every few days to keep users informed.

 

A Beta is planned for tomorrow, Wednesday Dec 16th (USA time). The preliminary patch notes are as follows:

Code:

* Updates for 2.1.0.1 - 2.1.0.7.
* AssignPassivesTask will now attempt to close the reset passive dialog before skipping execution due to a full reset being present.
* The GameData.MinimapIcon type has been removed.
* NetworkObject.MinimapIcon has changed from a MinimapIcon type (now removed) to a DatMinimapIconWrapper type.
* MissionMarker.Icon and MissionMarker.IsVisible removed. Use NetworkObject.MinimapIcon and NetworkObject.IsMinimapIconVisible instead.
* MinimapIconComponent.Icon (MinimapIcon) replaced with MinimapIconComponent.MinimapIcon (DatMinimapIconWrapper)
* PurchasePanel.SwitchToTab now implements waiting for contents like PreviousTab/NextTab.
* WaitForPurchase now returns a bool to signal if waiting for the panel to load timed out or not. This is to mirror WaitForStash, as it was possible for infinite loops to occur on client hiccups.
* PurchasePanel.Tabs changed to PurchasePanel.TabNames for consistency.
* Various GuildStashPanel updates to ensure tabs are fully loaded before API functions return.
* GuildStashPanel.IsOnLastTab and GuildStashPanel.IsOnFirstTab added.
* GuildStashPanel.PreviousTab now checks IsOnFirstTab and GuildStashPanel.NextTab checks IsOnLastTab to prevent unnecessary waiting.
* GuildStashPanel.WaitForGuildStash added to wait for the inital tab to load after opening.
* GuildStashPanel.GoToLastTab added.
* GuildStashPanel.GoToFirstTab and GuildStashPanel.GoToLastTab now fail after trying to change a tab page for 5s.
* GuildStashPanel.CurrentTabItems added for consistency. It is an alias for GuildStashPanel.CurrentTabInventory.Items.
* Inventory.Cols added as an alias for Inventory.Columns.
* StashPanel.GoToFirstTab and StashPanel.GoToLastTab now fail after trying to change a tab page for 5s.
* StashPanel.GoToLastTab added.
* StashPanel.PreviousTab now checks IsOnFirstTab and StashPanel.NextTab checks IsOnLastTab to prevent unnecessary waiting.
* StashPanel.IsOnLastTab added.
* StashPanel.CurrentTabItems added for consistency. It is an alias for StashPanel.CurrentTabInventory.Items.
* SkillGemHud.AreLevelIconsDisplayed changed from a function to a property.
* The static location for The Ledge entrance should now be fixed in The Submerged Passage.
* Removed the obsolete InGameState.AreLevelSkillGemIconsDisplayed function.
* Removed the obsolete InGameState.ClearLevelSkillGemIcon function.
* Fixed a possible infinite loop in SocialPanel.JoinPublicParty.
* JoinPublicPartyError.TimedOut added to signal when SocialPanel.JoinPublicParty times out.
* TradePanel.AcceptTrade added.
* TradeActionError.CantAccept added.
* Fixed a bug in Skill.ToString where it would check of it could be cast when the skill didn't belong to the player.
* StoneAltar object wrapper added.
* Added Item.IsTalismanType.
* Added InventoryPanel.EquipSkillGemToNeck.
* Skill.ToString no longer logs AllStats, too much clutter.
* Fixed a bug where ObjectManager.TreeRoots would always return null due to the game object changing in types.
* GemLeveler adds support for gems in the Neck slot.
* HandleA2Q9 logic simplified some to not use quest data.
* Added more dump scripts: DumpActiveSkills, DumpGrantedEffects, DumpGrantedEffectsPerLevel, DumpMinimapIcons, DumpNpcTalk.

There's been no changes to the OldGrindBot implementation itself. OldRoutine has only had a few additions made for testing a few skills but it mostly remains unchanged as well. This update was solely focused on fully updating the API and becoming compatible with the new client for 2.1.0+. At this point, I do know OldRoutine is really outdated in terms of trying to support new skills and whatnot, but it's what we have in place for the time being.

The FPS issue is still known and seems a lot better in some areas, and a lot worse in others. I do not have an explanation for it yet, but for now, we still have to live with this as a side effect of interacting with the new client. This game has changed too much (and will continue to change in unpredictable ways) to easily be able to track down the issues or try and change existing core aspects of the API; too much is dependent on everything else.

At this point, we feel really comfortable with the updates in terms of hopefully not missing anything, so we'll be doing some last-pass testing before pushing a Beta on Wednesday. Please be aware though, several upcoming PoE patches have already been announced, so once again, we'll most likely see some additional downtime for them. Large updates like this are always rocky the first month or so, so we thank users for their patience.

 

In addition, I've put together some code snippets from our extensive API (which is why client updates affect us more than others) which were used to test. This should give current/aspiring devs some more concrete direction in terms of figuring out where to start looking in the API to accomplish various things. These examples are not comprehensive, as there's a lot more in the API, but this covers a good set of functionality. EB provides API access to almost everything in the client, so there's more potential/opportunity for devs now than there has ever been before in EB's history. We hope to see more people take advantage of these things in the future.

Beta #1182 is now being deployed via BuddyAuth. Please post any issues in the Support forums as usual.

Users may want to consider downloading a clean copy rather than updating! Remember to add Talisman looting to your existing filters if you update. To do this, simply add a new pick filter with the Types set to "/Talismans/". The default item filter editor has this entry added already.

Please keep in mind this is a Beta build. While we have tested and checked everything as thoroughly as possible, it is possible we missed somethings. Please do not bot unattended or Hardcore unless you know what you are doing!

 

PoE 2.1.1 is about to be released. If by chance anything major changes again, I'll post in this thread that additional downtime will be expected.

 

Beta #1184 has been deployed via BuddyAuth! Please report any issues in the Support Forums.
