[SIZE=+1]Cannot Reproduce / Not a Bug / Won't fix / Overcome by Events[/SIZE]
[size=-1][Items in DarkBlue are API changes of interest mostly to developers.][/size]

[size=-2]Bugs marked as "cannot reproduce" are usually due to problems with your particular Honorbuddy installation. For instance, third-party products that are not working correctly—you should disable Buddy Store streaming for all products. Another cause is interference from external programs or addons. Your best way to recovering from this always starts with a clean install.
If you continue to experience problems after conducting a 'clean install', and disabling the streaming of all products from the Buddy Store, you should seek help in the Support forum with your log that captures the issue.[/size]​

• HB-1735: Infinite loop in Levelbot Vendor Behaviour if there is no path to Vendor
  
  OvercomeByEvents: "This issue was addressed months ago."​

  OvercomeByEvents: "This got fixed awhile ago. BOI wasn't getting cleared after map changed."​
• HB-1782: While grinding, TargetList is purged after combat and not repopulated
  
  NotABug: "Grey mobs are ignored while bot is moving if they're not quest/grind objectives. The example could be fixed by simply adding '54' to the Factions list of the GrindArea"​
• HB-1809 [PartyBot] Follower Becomes Unresponsive After Trapping
  
  CannotReproduce: "Was likely a CR issue."​
• HB-1889 Axefall in Spires of Arak is a Horde base
  
  OvercomeByEvents: "This was repaired a few releases ago. We didn't see the report open at the time of fix."​
• HB-2175: Kick's Deepholm 82-83 (1474): "Keep Them Off the Front" broken due to bad vehicle aiming

  OvercomeByEvents: Repaired by HB-2205​
• HB-2194: Kick's BC 58-70 H (7789): "Nether Gas in a Fel Fire Engine" broken due to doing objective for quest we do not have
  
  CannotReproduce: "The profile logic is "<While Condition="HasQuest(10855) &amp;&amp; !IsQuestCompleted(10855)">..." which means that if the bot doesn't have the quest it won't gather the item. We've tried to reproduce the problem, but it all worked perfectly. Closing as its more likely a cache issue. Its definitely not a profile bug."​
• HB-2195: Kick's Deepholm 82-83 (1474): "Keep Them Off the Front" broken due to trying to mount a non-interactable vehicle

  OvercomeByEvents: "Repaired by HB-2279."​
• HB-2269: GarrisonBuddy API: ShipmentsReady returning wrong values
  
  NotABug: "The client only updates this information when requested. The Lua call "C_Garrison.RequestLandingPageShipmentInfo()" will update the information (it's throttled in the client so it won't flood the server with update requests, so it's semi-safe to spam). In GSB we have this call hooked up to a few Lua events to automatically update the info when something changes (as well as before actually checking the status of stuff)
  GARRISON_BUILDING_LIST_UPDATE
  GARRISON_SHIPMENT_IN_PROGRESS
  GARRISON_SHIPMENT_READY
  GARRISON_SHIPMENT_EMPTY
  Those are the events used in GSB. There may be some other more useful ones."​

  And a note regarding the profile error in this particular report:
  Brodies' GrindArea didn't include all the greys so it was ignoring them and KUC doesn't switch to new targets while in combat (it just lets the default targeting handle things while in combat) unless ImmediatelySwitchToHighestPriorityTarget is enabled and he had that disabled."​

[SIZE=+1]Post dispositions[/SIZE]

These posts have been archived for the reasons stated here.​

Problem should be resolved in the Support forum

Frequently, your problem can be resolved with a 'clean install', and turning off the use of all third-party products—including all products from the Buddy Store. There is a strong chance the repair for your issue resides in the HelpDesk. However, if you are unable to resolve the problem using these resources, then by all means make a new post in the Support forum. And please, don't forget to attach your full, unedited log that captures the issue
​

Problem should be resolved by contacting the developer of the third-party product

Using third-party products that have not been updated

Once again, we draw your attention to the bright red letters in the first post that are easy to overlook​

Missing critical information (logs, screenshots, etc.)

Your post may also be archived "without comment" for this reason. The posts listed here made an effort to report the problem, but the information provided was insufficient to create a bug report (e.g., wrong log, partial log, screenshot needed, etc)​

Didn't check the "Known Issues" list

Log is not against the current release

 

GarrisonButler is a 3rd Party Product so you need to wait for the author to update it for the latest HB release.
If you need 3rd Party Products please download the archive version of the new hb next time. This way you can install it in a new folder testing everything you like without loosing something.

 

After using the auto-updater (not a fresh install from the .zip), I am not seeing any Beta botbases in my HB botbase drop-down list after updating to this release. Thoughts?



EDIT: Tested with .782 and while GarrisonBoss (Beta) does show up with the last release (now old), FishingMaster (Beta) still does not.

EDIT2: Tested with .781 and while GarrisonBoss (Beta) does show up with that release (old), FishingMaster (Beta) still does not.

EDIT3: After talking to Alisha, I put logging as "Diagnostic," closed HB and restarted and now GarrisonBoss (Beta) and FishingMaster (Beta) both show up in .781, .782 and .783. Weird?!

EDIT4: Testing on a second computer, changing to "Diagnostic" logging with .783 does not fix a possible streaming issue with these two botbases.

EDIT5: Deleting the Bossland cache (C:/Users/<username>/AppData/BossLand) appears to resolve this issue. A note, per Alisha:

 

Hi, Giwin,

We've written this up as HB-2270("InteractWith: Throwing exceptions when Using an Item on a Target"), because no matter what the CombatUseItemOnV2 and InteractWith behaviors should not be throwing exceptions.

But, the quest itself is difficult to solve correctly.

• When you kill a Withered Troll, your Nass companion must be "in the area". Otherwise, Stefan's Steel Toed Boot is unusable.
  
• It is VERY easy to get Nass confused and have him run away.
  This is a particular problem if you 'mount up' for ground or flying. Its best to remain on foot while doing this quest.
  
• If Nass gets lost, the quest profile must be prepared to go back to the quest-giving NPC and ask for another.
  
• If the toon knows skinning, this can interfere with usage of Stefan's Steel Toed Boot.
  You most definitely will want to turn of skinning while pursuing this quest.

We've got the issue captured, and will look into it. Much success with getting this particularly thorny quest working.

cheers,
chinajade

 

It's not too hard to cover these thorny quests with all the tools available that Honorbuddy provides makes it a lot easier than it used to be.

 

Hi, Klimo,

Your probably asking about HB-1834 in the "Issues & Dispositions" list (post #2). You'll just have to watch the list for progress, because we do not give out ETAs.

cheers,
chinajade

 

Hi, GK2014,

In its current state, the control positions are only saved if they are 'unlocked' when Honorbuddy exits. To work around the problem for now:

• Move the controls where you want them, and leave them unlocked
• Exit Honorbuddy
• Relaunch Honorbuddy, and lock the controls

cheers,
chinajade
