HB ARCHIVES: Processed Issues from Honorbuddy Release threads

Hello Chinajade,

as alwasy your answer is appreciated
Do you think my question (#15) should be reported as a bug? Or is the solution possibly a setting I did not mentioned yet?

 

Hi, Benninger,

I was waiting for Bobby53 to answer a few of these. As, I don't work on Singular. My response in this thread was to get people to provide the required information if they really want the problem examined. Without such information, the report is just complaining.

But, as always, if you want Bobby53 to investigate an issue, he needs the information described in Post #4. Anything less, and the request is usually blown off. He has a VERY full plate, and if the right information is not readily available, there are plenty of things to work on that have all the needed information.

cheers & nice to see you again,
chinajade

 

Thank you for your reply, Chinajade,

I asked for your opinion about my question because of your great experience in support.
I now will declare my question as a bug

It could have been that my question is an option in singular I did not find yet and no bug - that's why I asked here.

Best regards,
Benninger

 

Could you explain to me how the check in/check out process works with Git and here? I got the Singular project loaded no problem and I made a modification to it to allow the use of Flasks (int, agi, stam, str ones) which appears to be working for me (need to do other tests though). Who actually modifies Singular? Who makes the decision to add or not add something?

I plan on making another change shortly as well to use Augment runes the same way because, why not? I have so many of them and I thought it was a great idea.

Past that, I plan on starting to look at the rotations and see if there are any rooms for improvement there. I am really just looking for someone to explain the official process if I want to change it.

Thanks!

Edit: Also looking for some coding standards as well. I may be using some method or standard that is known to cause troubles, etc.

 

Any updates? Seems like my bot still randomly stops every now and then...

 

What do you expect? It is a test release. But logs may help developers fixing the issue.

 

Yes, thats why I said any updates >_>;; And seems like the support section is filled with them. And looks like they just pushed a new update now.

 

I cant find how to turn off doing dps as healer (resto shaman) it also summons elemental totem wich is really annoying

 

It should be this setting under General tab.



However, if you are solo, I believe it will always try to DPS, even with that set to False.

 

Hello there. Was doing LFR via dungeonbuddy today and some guy made a comment on how I was interrupting and accused of using a Kick-bot (lol). Told him, "is it that hard for you to believe that are people that could be better at this game than you?

Anyways after trying to adjust singular to not interrupt at all, it still seems to cast the interrupts. Maybe someone can shed some light on what I should be clicking off, Appreciate it.

 

I had an issue similar to this after I did a windows up date I had to roll back my up dates to fix it this is how I fixed it however they might find a better fix for it

 

Thanks speshulk926 that fixed it, but it still summons the stone elemental....its so annoying to see it everytime its off CD

 

For resto, it's a bit different. There are 3 different routines. I need to know if it was a Battleground, Raids, and Normal (anything not in an instance). Then there are different routines for in a party and not in a party.

For the interrupt part, it's probably not a terrible feature to add that there needs to be X milliseconds into the cast before it interrupts. If you look in Helpers/Common.cs you will see IsInterruptTarget(WoWUnit u). They already have another statement in there that looks at the time left to make sure we don't interrupt a target with too little time left, but did not look at too much time left.

Code:

 if (u.CurrentCastTimeLeft.TotalMilliseconds < 250)
            {
                // not worth interrupting at this point
                return false;
            }

It would be easy to modify this to only interrupt if there's 1 full second left. That would give everyone else time to interrupt before you, but not let it slide if it does need to be interrupted. You may need to play with the time there.

Code:

if (u.CurrentCastTimeLeft.TotalMilliseconds > 1000)
            {
                // give it some time before interrupting
                return false;
            }

Another option similar to this one would be to convert the begin time and end time to percentages and only interrupt when it hits X percentage. If the entire cast time is 1.5 seconds, you can get the start time, end time and total Milliseconds left (like above) and figure out the percentage of that total milliseconds, which means you won't interrupt too fast or too slow. That one is considerably more work though to make happen and honestly, not even sure that will work right.

All of my code above is Theoretical though, so I haven't actually tried it.

 

This has probably been reported before, but my enhancement shaman ALWAYS summons earth elemental, and i dont want that. I like to control my cd's and there is no option to disable that. It is just useless to always have elemental popping. Can we work it out of the routine or have an option to do so?

 

Can you specify which routine and which specs should not have it? As stated above there are 3 specs. Ele, Resto, and Enhance. Resto has 3 sub-routines for Raids, Solo and Battleground. Should it just never cast it ever? When I was looking through the code, it appears there are some methods to see "if you are in trouble" and then cast it. Without knowing which one you are talking about, it's hard to say whether or not to add this in.

 

I'd say every spec should have the option to pop it, because it is nice as an oh shit button when you take a little too much on. There are just no parameters set on casting it so it throws it out there every time its off cd. As a solo behavior it would be fine with 3 or more mobs but when you are in a group you really dont need it much if at all. I'd imagine Resto shamans never using it and Ele/enh very rarely. Its very situational because its more add management than anything.

Right now its current behavior goes kind of like this:
-Pull 1 mob
-Casts necessary totems and Earth Elemental
-Begins rotation
-Performs rotation until mob is dead

It just looks odd using it as a dps cd because thats not what its designed for. Hope that helps

 

When I try to get Honor Buddy working it loads up and then just says
Honorbuddy v2.5.14607.805 started.
Logging in...
T: 5247531079648522157 H: 3517977922

and nothing happens??

 

Please fix the dps for Mistweavers. Leveling through a zone and all it does is stand there in the fistweaving stance and spam Jade Lightning (which is weakened in that stance and ooms the toon in seconds)

Oh and a reply to the removal of the previous post since replying to the pm is blocked:
"You are most welcome to your negative opinion, but not the crude language, and/or hostility used to express it."
FTFY

There's plenty of swearing on the forums.

 

Ninja patch now !

 

there is an issue with Frost DK i am having. its not a bug nor a setting i can see, but it is not using Obliterate in its rotation. Ever. Also on my hunter i get a constant spam on my screen saying "you must be in Sholzar Basin to use this". Idk if that is a bug or what but as soon as i can i will post a bug report on the hunter. currently WoW is updating something.
