[PB] [A] Mining + Engineering fully automated

Yeah, that's a lot of conditions, for sure. I truly appreciate the depth of this profile, and is definitely a feat

 

It sure is. I like going in depth with my projects.

 

Well once I figured out what it was trying to achieve, I mainly just watched it while playing CoD and random movies.

All in all, not too much interaction. There were times it would learn skills, then try to craft right at the Engineering trainer, where it required an Anvil to forge things. Once I moved the bot (which at this time I should have posted a debug log for you), it continued on its merry way.

I am by no means finished with this profile, as I am still in the early 300's for Engi and almost in Cata level mining. So far so good, Inegro.

 

just a general bug no log needed for this one cuse it is completley random in happening but some times it saying "heading to stormwind forge" then just flys straight up and keeps trying to fly further and further up and end up over sw keep and gets stuck happened a few times now

 

I suppose that's a problem with meshes / HB's navigation. Nowhere in my profile, I have any coord up there.

 

The flying up in SW over the Keep happens for me as well. I just tried out the profile, already had Engineering at 190 before. The log says
"Going to smelt/create stuff.
Going back to Stormwind forge to create stuff."
and the Bot changes to Gatherbuddy2 (I guess the switch to GB2 is normal for ProfessionBuddy?
I tried restarting HB, reloading the profile and deleting my Meshes folder, to no avail. I also do a clean HB installation everytime there is an update and I use the current version. Any ideas?

 

Any news about an Horde version?

 

Not any time soon.

 

OK ty anyway ^^

 

ya at engi 195 mine went back to gb2 and starting mining at level 1 again my mining was at 250 already so i kinda gave up and now have manually leveled both to 385

 

I tried switching back to HB 5097 to solve my flying upwards over SW bug and indeed, now it seems to work.

 

i have the same prob, going Switch back and try

 

Unfortunately I must take that back. After having gathered lots of materials through mining, the bot decided to go back to SW to create stuff. Now it's stuttering again upwards over SW Keep.
So neither the current nor the previous version are working in that respect. This is no surprise though if it's indeed a mesh problem.
I guess I'll level the last bit to 300 by hand then...

edit: The debug log says [08:23:04:187] Activity: Flying to location <-8428, 339, 621> by the way. After checking the current position in the dev tools, it seems that there is an invisible ceiling at -8428 339 546, so the bot is not able to reach that position. If that coordinate is stored in the profile somewhere I think this could be fixed by setting the last coordinate lower.

edit2: I found that the FlyTo command in the profile to fly to the crafting area in SW is this: <FlyToAction Dismount="True" X="-8428.339" Y="621.5685" Z="95.55919" />. Interestingly 621 is found here, but not as the Z coordinate. I tried to change it to 521 and found that the bot flies to that position correctly, but of course there is no anvil and forge nearby. So I added another line above that to let the bot fly in range to the target area first without dismounting. Now the bot doesn't even want to go there. Instead I now also have the problem that the bot decided to start the Mining cycle from level 1, it is now circling over Elwynn Forest. Would I have not turned off Copper Ore farming in GB2, my bags would already be full with copper ore, haha.

Last edit (hopefully): Reverting my initial changes and changing that line to <FlyToAction Dismount="True" X="-8428.339" Y="621.568" Z="95.559" /> makes the bot fly to the correct area. It is now smelting ores like crazy, I hope everything works now.
I find it weird however that the bot also keeps smelting low level ores like copper and tin even though my Engineering level is already close to 200. I could have used those materials on other chars as well to push Mining.

 

I know what that problem is. (Could've told you long time ago if a log was provided). It is also listed in "Known bugs" in my original post along with a link to another post I've made in the PB thread with a fix.

 

Ah, ok, thanks for clarifying that. I thought that this has already been fixed.

 

Yea me too. I've reported it to highvoltz

EDIT: It's been fixed in rev 56 so just update your PB and it should be fine again.

And to you people who reported that meanwhile it was crafting, it went to vendor/trainer, highvoltz have clarified a few things for me that will make me able to change the profile accordingly. This will be included in my next update (0.4). I think I'll have it ready some time tonight.

 

Were you using an old version of the profile?

 

Here's a pre-release on 0.4 - I added rest of the engineering up to skill 525. The reason it's not a release yet is because I haven't added logging yet. But now it's 7 am and I need to sleep, so I'll add that some time tomorrow I think. ^^
When I'm done levelling Enchanting (manually) on my char, I'll start up this profile on another char to fix bugs (and maybe look at horde implementation).

Btw if you have some volatile air I recommend you send them to your toon before crafting Cataclysm stuff. Else it'll go and buy 48 of them from AH, which can be a bit expensive (think it cost me around 1,7k gold)

 

Running it now as we speak.
I Got newest version of HB. Clean install
Did not buy weakflux so was stuck there.
And did not learn melt iron. So had to learn it to get it moving again.
And when it buy singel items from ah it do not wait enough infront of the mail box for all the items to get into the bags. But i guess that was PB's fault.
But dosent raelly bother me. Like your project. Keep going! ++ rep

 

That mail thing is fixed with the latest PB (released today) so update on SVN. Thank you for letting me know about the other things, that's really helpful. I'll have a look into it
Will also add something extra for that mail bug to hopefully prevent any bugs.
