[PAID] BGFarmer - An Advanced Battleground Bot Base

i found this to work pretty good in ashran, but there are a couple of huge bugs which basically ruin the whole thing.

as horde, when our raid is pushing into their base over the bridge or is inside their base on the boss, it will often take off swimming and end up outside stormshield where I put the red arrow in this pic http://i.imgur.com/0jB2ZTE.png, and afk there. this area is outside ashran, so you have to requeue

even worse, when alliance is pushing into the horde base (ie they are all over the bridge or inside), the bot completely freaks out and GOES DOWN THE ROAD TO WARSPEAR AND LEAVES ASHRAN. when the queue pops and he goes back in - HE WILL FREAKING LEAVE AGAIN if alliance is still in base. worst of all, it spazzes out running back and forth rapidly while mounted, on that hill down from ashran to warspear - clear bot behavior in the worst spot, there are literally 50 players staring at you doing it. if that doesnt get you reported for botting nothing will.

anyways, something is going on with its logic to avoid large enemy groups (like 50 alliance on the bridge), to cause this. you have GOT TO prevent it from leaving ashran or it's not usable. this happens often.

finally as an overall suggestion it needs to stay away from action even more. i know there is logic to avoid enemy groups and not leave events, but you want to ramp that up. in BGs the most human behaviour is the opposite of what it is in Ashran - only a BOT would kamikaze into a grp of enemies where healers cant keep them up, or go deep inside the enemy base alone, or chase some player outside of the ongoing event area thus missing out on the event win. but this happens nonstop with this bot. EVERY single possible thing you want out of ashran (nemesis kills, CPs from events, etc), is provided by simply being in raid and nearby - the bot does not have to actually fight. at all costs you dont want to die and miss out on event wins. im sure you get the idea. just stay back as much as possible.

and please blacklist those goddam mounted elite knights that patrol the roads in packs. blacklist as many npcs as possible actually. they are impossible to kill, there is no benefit to killing them, yet the bot freaking dismounts to fight 5 elites instead of running past them to rejoin the raid from his GY run.

 

Ashran

Here is a log showing the bot leaving Ashran to go find a repair vendor outside of Ashran ffs why is it running out of Ashran there are vendors inside Asharn that can repair or repair mount why does it do the most unlikey thing a human would do.

 

Lots of problems with the bot lately. Well, not lots, but very noticeable. Sometimes during it's routine it'll stop in the middle of the PvP BG and just sit there, and not path.

Noticed it's not attacking people capping flags in Gilneas when it's protecting the flag. Hmmm

 

Hello Millz,

Targeting Range is currently set with a floor of 20. Can you change this to be 1 or even zero so my rogue will not attack anyone in Ashran, but just follow the group instead?

 

Yeah could be a good idea. I'll look into that.

Post a log file please.

That issue is being caused by the wow client not 'displaying' the information as to whether you're attacking or defending. It's then trying to navigate but failing because it doesn't know if the gates are passable or not. I'll put a change in to try and resolve this, but it's incredibly rare that happens - it's very difficult to replicate the issue.

I'll look into the gear buying issue today.

Will add a setting to allow disabling looting.

Aimless running -> This can occur depending on your settings. Post a log file if you're having issues. I'm changing some of this behaviour in the next build.

 

Currently running as healer in Ashran, and it doesn't feel like it's fast enough to move with the groups. It either locks on to a target, friendly/hostile and just keep standing there until the whole group is gone to the next event and i eventually end up dying to either guards or players.

Properly might add that i have not turned any targeting on in either BGFarmer or my CC.

 

hey millz i was using this yesterday on my toon but i was standing in a bg and the fps dropped back from 150 to 5 when i stopped honorbuddy it went back up again i think its you botbase bg farmer

 

First time reported. Post a log file and a concise description of the issue please and I'll look into it.

I'll look into running down that path in your screenshot, but I think you've called it that it's applying blackspots for lots of enemies and then trying to take a new path around. I'll remove the blackspot for enemies logic when inside Ashran.

Agree with the event thing. I'll change the logic so that it only plays events that it gets near to because the group/party is there (if not in party, it'll still run solo).

The elite NPCs -> Yeah i've got a fix for this in the next build already.

It wasn't trying to find a repair vendor outside of Ashran, it was trying to move to your team mates and ended up running behind the zone. I'll look into this.

Stopping -> Need a log with time that it happened so I can look into it please.

Not attacking flag cappers -> Your toon is just idle next to them while they cap? Or you're in combat with another player and someone else caps?

Sure, will change it.

 

using this for Ashran and it spends 75% of the time dying. Constantly running into the enemy base, even when we have no one attacking and dying to the guards over and over. I ran it for a couple hours with no CP gains and a small tick in reputation. Is there something I can set where it doesn't try to solo the boss 5x in a row? Is there a Rep farming option where it will just go around trying to maximize rep? That's all I really want it to do and the main reason I bought the bot base.

 

Disable: event mechanic - join events no.
Activate: follow biggest pack of players.
Use grp finder Ashran to find a winning event BG.
Join the BG
Enter Ashran

Now the bot should not run to events camped by alliance if you are horde and so on and will just follow the zerg.
That's the way it works best for me

 

Spent all day working on a new build which will hopefully resolve most of the issues reported here. Currently waiting for approval.

[09/Mar/2015]
- Fixed a minor bug with trying to find the location of player 'raid0' - which doesn't exist.
- Finding clusters of players ignores any player that's offline or isn't alive.
- Finding clusters of players is now throttled, so should reduce FPS lag significantly.
- Added roll need on loot.
- [Ashran] Added option to allow disabling looting mobs.
- [Ashran] The searching for a fight logic will now only trigger when not in a group.
- [Ashran] Will no longer apply blackspots for high enemy presence in Ashran.
- [Ashran] If in a group, will now only participate in events that we approach because our team are near. The bot will no longer run alone to an event area unless not in a party.
- [Ashran] When not in a group, finding fights will now move to the area mid zone, rather than charging the enemy base.
- [SotA] Improvement to not moving when can't determine if we're attacking or defending.
- Fixed gear buyer from not buying items.
- Will no longer loot mobs when mounted.

 

Can someone help me? I cannot figure out what I'm missing. In the gear buying tab I have everything added. However, when I reach 4000 honor it auto logs out. What do I need to do to have it run to the vendor and purchase the items I've added from them?

o.o seems to be addressed above! Can't wait

 

None of my logic is working correctly starting sometime yesterday! Up until that point, it worked flawlessly! For instance: Isle of Conquest runs around like an idiot, Warsong Gulch it goes to fight mid, Temple of KotMogu ...things like that.

Hi Mario 27 I don't think it is Millz bot that causes the fps drop other ppl have the same issue and they don't use this bot...do a search on the forums for fps drop u will find the fix for it...

 

There is a problem with getting stuck in the Arathi Basin, the character when moving from farm to forge trying to pass on a short route and end up stuck under the bridge.

 

After update on 9/3/15 Ashran bot STILL runs behind alliance keep when it is looking for players, and out of zone losing spot in the zone and forcing another 1 hr que ..zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz when is this getting fixed, been months now.

 

so after the 45min que the retarded bot was in ABG and decided to hand in its 100 frags 40 seconds before the event, so it then runs through the water and outside to the alliance zone in area to make its way to the hand ins and times out of zone losing place in the bg. grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr major bugs in ashran, DO NOT BUY if its Ashran your after, until its fixed.

 

maybe its fixed now with his new build but im 1000% its coming from his botbase the lag i have a great gaming pc and 180mb internet i had in one bg dropped lag from 200 to 5 fps when i stopped honorbuddy the lag was gone i didnt had that with bgbuddy so ye i know for sure its from bgfarmer but maybe its fixed in this new fix build i wil test it soon

 

Help millz out and post your logs we need this fixed
