      How do you get from one zone to another? :p

      I use hotspots but the bot doesn't move to the new zone, same format as your profile kickazz as I only joined a few days ago but I've been a profile maker for years, I think RunTo or MoveTo? :confused:

      Only bossland and pirox comparing numbers could tell you that.
      We don't know. Doesn't matter. HB is still here :)

      Can be done.
      If you have any C# experience do a search for Druid Harvest Helper.
      Take out the target filtering, and instead of worrying about any combat and casting on the herb/ore just make it dismount.

      Okay thanks for answering me. But shouldn't this be a basic mechanic and function with any gathering bot? I dont understand why you guys dont have this already as a basic when you buy the bot, ?

      nothing to do with a plugin. i think gatherbuddy must be smoother in movement, but this is correct, hb gather looks a bit strange.

      Yeah I know right. Like I dont wanna sound like a jerk. I think the buddy services are AWESOME. But why is the gatherbuddy mechanic so sketchy? shouldn't bot gathering be a top priority?

      Why? Not everyone bots to gather, some use this for leveling/pvp/questing etc.

      GB2 drops onto the node as so many nodes are on cliffs and behind walls. If there were a problem with users being banned as a result of this, we'd change it and let users risk being banned for getting stuck in public places but there is no such problem.

      well it's a difficult decision.

      Landing direct on the node :
      "bot hunter" player can report you, because most "but hunter" player don't believe you can land direct on a node without beeing a bot (most people don't know you coul do this with click to walk without beein a bot)

      Landing near a node:
      as you seed the bot could get stucked and this looks more "bottish" than landing direct on a node


      But back to "bot hunter" Player. In most "bot hunter guides" made by "bot hunter" player you could read methods to dectect a bot. As an example, these guides could be reading within the battlenet board. Most "guides" says you can detect a bot just by seeing how it gathers herbs / mines. Bots fly over the herb, dismount and now the fall down and gather the herb.
      No human flys over the herb and falls down, the fly to the ground and dismount.

      But, as most parts of hb are open source users how want to avoid the risc of beeing detected by "bot hunter players" and want to increase the risk of beeing detected during the enviroment (getting stacked) should be able to change the bot behavior.

      I thought we could easly change FlyToAction.cs
      PHP:
       protected override RunStatus Run(object context) {
                  if (!
      IsDone)
                  {
                      if (
      ObjectManager.Me.Location.Distance(loc) > 6)
                      {
                          
      Flightor.MoveTo(loc);
                          
      TreeRoot.StatusText string.Format("Flying to location {0}"loc);
                      }
                      else
                      {
                          if (
      Dismount)
                              
      Mount.Dismount("Dismounting flying mount");
                              
      //Lua.DoString("Dismount() CancelShapeshiftForm()");
                          
      IsDone true;
                          
      TreeRoot.StatusText string.Format("Arrived at location {0}"loc);
                      }
                      return 
      RunStatus.Running;
                  }
                  return 
      RunStatus.Failure;
              }
      and change the 6 to... maybe 1 but that had no effect.


      Maybe someone could give a hint were to look for ;-)
      With this way its a user decision with risk he votes higher.

      Thanks for this. I think this is very true. Makes sense now thanks.

      Offtopic question now though. I found a website that someoen told me about a long time ago to sell gold to. To get verified with them They want me to scan my license ID and send it to them... This doesn't seem very safe to me at all? Even if they are legit. What are peoples suggestions on this? Thanks in advance.

      I got 8 closed WoW-Accounts (all that were online) some Minutes ago while using Pirox with private Profiles.
      Do others here lost Accounts today too?
      Maybe Pirox is not safe anymore...

      Most likely Blizz *****ing down on Pirox users.
      It's a dead bot.

      Stop using it and start learning HB stuff :)

      Seriously, your bot hunter does not follow you and measure how high off a node you are when your toon dismounts. And even if he happens to be in the same area, GB2 skips the node unless you specifically enable ninja mode. You are putting a lot of energy into a problem we don't have.

      If you really want to be creative, work on ways to auction the huge amounts of herbs and ore and ways to transfer the gold to buyers without endangering your farm toons. That is where the risk of bans lie; not in how your toon dismounts.

      i dont think so... if you always landing the same way, its a program. if its possible to do something like a random landing, look a little bit different. a bot is a bot and someone who wants to hunt, he will find enough.
