HB ARCHIVES: Kick's Old Posts Thread--DO NOT DELETE!

Kick - Sorry if you answered this before, but I couldn't find anything in 10 different keyword searches...

I'm currently in MoP leveling a few toons using your mega super wonderful pack. I've noticed that when my toon is running down the road, I see the hotspot circle in the distance, the toon runs to it, then stops and runs back a few feet, and then travels on to the next hotspot, rinse & repeat. I'm using the headless horseman's mount, but would that really be the issue?

Your profiles aren't the only ones that I've seen this issue with, but you are the awesomist and I know you have the answer!

Thank you!!


Note: Let me know if you need a log. I figure you will just have words of wisdom for me without one...

 

ht doesend seems to wanna do

hostile skies in towling steppes could u make it so the bot clicks the icon and not self?


Hostile Skies - Quest - World of Warcraft

 

hey kickazz -first time on forum so hope this is the right place to post

First off all thx alot for your 1-90 profiles - they are awesome

Now the sad part - I've been running profile [N - Quest] 88-89 Kun-Lai Summit [Kick] - but at some point it gets stuck on Seeker's point trying to get a quest, the quest is called "The Tongue of Ba-Shon" but there is none, so it just open's dialog - closes - open - closes etc etc !

i've attached a log

Whoopazz

 

1st problem - hb issue not profile
2nd problem - blizz sucks at coding, you may have to delete that pickup, objective, and turnin from the profile; i will be re-running that profile this weekend'ish to fix various issues

you may want to bg / dungeon passed duskwood for now

 

always gonna need a log for hit/miss issues

How To Attach A Log [Kick]

 

mario, you've been on the forum long enough to know that I need a log for any issue man

 

ye i know but last time with the beta version there was a bug again where you could see the name in the log again im afraid to post it but its that quest could u check it out its in towling steppes

 

ok you manually quested in kun lai and you completed a quest that I didn't.

I'm going to need some more information

you missed a 'leading to' quest called seekers folly

The Tongue of Ba-Shon - Quest - World of Warcraft

Seeker's Folly - Quest - World of Warcraft
^^ pick that quest up and press start

 

<If Condition="((!HasQuest(30814)) &amp;&amp; (!IsQuestCompleted(30814)))" >

it's stuck picking up first assault bc it either missed the first quest ... or you have a cache issue (dunno if it's wow cache, hb cache, or what). If A Foot in the Door isn't available, and First Assault isn't available, then idk what to tell u.

First Assault - Quest - World of Warcraft

 

ah well, i guess im gonna abandon all quests from log, then make fresh installs of everything and see how it goes.

I have used your 85-90 portion of profiles on 5 different chars, and they have been more or less smooth (any issues were manageable with a bit of research). all the characters had the exactly same pattern as this one, they were grinded from 85-90 without doing any quests at all, then I ran them through the 85-90 quests (at level 90). The last character to go through this routine was on HB version x25 though, so I even tried that, and x32 and x34 (from separate installation fodlers that I keep for such testing).

I will try to troubleshoot it further, and see how it goes.

btw does the 'interactwith' quest behaviour have anything to do with this ?

 

Working on some fixes for that have come up since v534. I haven't forgotten about it, and I do want to get it 95% ish before 5.2 (which is either next week or the week after, i lost track). I'm on call this weekend, which means I will either have a lot of time to work, or no time at all...but I'm trying.

 

Is there any chance to implement that buddy checks which rep are exalted and does just non-exalted reputation quests?

BTW your profile is amazing indeed!

 

Answered a few posts back:

 

On the golden lotus quest, an act of cruelty, the bot stands in place and does nothing. The info reads goal: kill golden lotus guards x 5.

The bot will target the friendly golden lotus guard but not move towards it's captor.

 

There was an error in the quest override.
I made the adjustment, and it will be pushed in r71.

r71 is going to include another round of Dominance Offensive fixes, so the push might not come today.

 

Thanks

 

Clearing the cache did not work. Start to finish seemed to work fine. It's the one's that were stopped midway that had issues.

edit: I wanted to clarify that by start to finish I meant the first initial run all the way through daily grinds cycle. trying to continue quests later on is where the problems took place.

 

*Pomfruit Pickup*

I just noticed today, and explains why i've ended up dead a few times in retrospect...

It appears as though the quest behavior essentially blocks out any self defense or attacking. So it'll be running around trying to get the pomfruit and get attacked by a bird or croc or something and just keep running, I'm 496 geared, and while I was able to live (I just let it go and see what would happen) and eventually got far enogh away that the mob would rubber band back to it's location - it also came very near to killing me (and i have died several times in this area without knowing why, i do now ;P)

summary: pomfruit QB doesn't defend, heal, or eat until it's completed.

 

nope

 

I definitely noticed this too, but unfortunately I don't know enough about quest behavior modifications to fix this problem. I'm pretty sure the only thing that needs to be fixed is a "if not in combat" clause. If anyone knows the wording to such a clause, and can show where it should be properly added (though I think I can figure that out) let me know!

That, or make it so pompfruit QB only finds 1 fruit at a time instead of all. Then worst case is it will ignore combat up until it gets one fruit instead of the last.
