LazyBoxer BETA, have at it!

It can be used as an alternative; but it does not provide the automated instance encounters that DB does.

Healing support is provided by the CC not the botbase.

 

so i could use my 3 dds with your bot base, the healer via DB and play my tank with tyrael?^^

 

Im leveling 3 toons with LazyBoxer right now. A tank which I control by myself, a DD and a healer and it works perfect with singular.

Only annoying thing is that you have to restart HB after entering a dungeon.

 

Yeah that same bug is present in LazyRaider too. I'm waiting for an update to HB before I make too many major changes or start digging too deep. Its been present since 5.3

 

Glad I read that now before I zoned and couldn't figure out wtf was going on lol. Thanks so much for all your hard work brother. Ideally one day ill quit "playing" wow and get off my lazy rear and start learning to code myself in order to give back lol.

 

Okay.

What I forgot is that the toons won't follow me properly while swimming. Sometimes it works and sometimes they run somewhere else instead of following me or they start attack mobs / keep staying infront of the water etc.

All in all a very nice bot, thank you!

 

DungeonBuddy have some logic, suited to each boss like being safe from void zones or use special attack (use barrels on Ook-Ook in Stormstout Brewery for example). LazyBoxer currently do nothing with it. Special attacks is not a big deal, but void zones is king pain in ass, and im already asked here to possible solution of this problem, but never get answer. :s

 

I can confirm this. Was going to report it today.

I think it's possibly distance issue. I had a quest where my slave swam with me ok, but if you get too far too fast the slave won't know what to do.

In another case we were across banks and the slave just sat. I think that might have been CRZ, or the bot didn't know how to path around.

At any rate...this might be a HB nav issue.

 

I've never seen this behavior. Can you replicate it?

 

I'm sure I answered this already. Its unlikely that I'll add this feature as it would detract from its primary purpose of being a multiboxing assistant tool, not an instance running tool.

 

Sounds like an HB navigation issue, and for that there is nothing I can do.

The slaves will follow the leader whenever possible, the only reason they would not is if the leader goes "out of sight" from HB, and that is a max range of 100 yards I think.

 

Just try to 3-box any heroic scenario and you will understand why im ask about this feature

 

I'm currently leveling a new team using LFG, and each time I zone in or out I have to restart FOUR HB instances, I fully understand how annoying this is. But, as I've already stated I feel this issue is caused by HB and that next release will hopefully resolve this issue. Until the next HB update I am not going to chase my tail trying to fix this.

 

New update coming soon... when I can test it fully (down due to WoW patch)

I've added a global hotkey to toggle Combat Assist ONLY mode.

What is Combat Assist ONLY mode? Well, lets say you're inside an instance and your running 4 characters (much like me) and your herbalist goes running off to pick a flower and then dies because they ran through a billion mobs to get it (much like me) so you toggle off herbalism. Then the next minute your miner goes running off to harvest a node and causes the party to wipe because they were the healer (much like me). So, you toggle mining off. THEN lets so your other character does something else just a stupid and causes YET ANOTHER DAMN WIPE (much like me) so you toggle that damn setting off too! Then lets say you get so sick of this you create a single key toggle function to put all your characters into COMBAT ASSIST ONLY MODE.

So, getting back to my point... Combat Assist ONLY mode will bypass ALL non-combat functions and make your character(s) assist you, and follow you. Basically it becomes a dumb combat bot. That is all!

 

Hi Fpsware, I know this may be off topic however I really appreciate your continued contribution to the HB community from a fellow botter across the pond

 

Appreciation is never off topic

 

As soon as I'm @home I'll try it again and post a log and record it with fraps quickly. It's like they follow me few yards in the water and then they turn back ashore and try to find another way running around or in circle etc. If I had to swim I just did a /follow command for the short distances.

 

I'll have a look a the video. What zone and body of water is it in? I'll see if I can do some testing. I had my characters running through the water all day and didn't have any issues with it.

 

I have this problem too with my bot. It only happens when swimming in some areas (like BFD). One of the main reasons I implemented a CTM override mode via global hotkey.

 

Hey Fpsware

Firstly, this rocks! it worked so well for me i've not used it for any LFG yet but i will do soon

Just in response to the posts about them finding their own route, i have also noticed this, it wasn't a problem as the bot sorted itself out but it seems that if i am playing the leader and i go up a "jagged" path like up rocks, the bot(Follower) seems to bypass this and try to run around the outside/find a diff route... Something to do with pathing ? I don't know just thought i'd add my two cents ha

Thanks
Kai
