[PAID] Raid Studio Bundle: Raiding with Leashes III

Even my Warrior was able to heroic throw his way to victory in Hyjal. I am still not entirely satisfied with the handling of the Gargoyles/Frostwyrms, but it is a big step forward.

 

Version 1.1.150302.1 is now live.

 

One thing i noticed, probaly not related to profile but a tip for others.
My rogue shadowstepped a mob in the haĺl before mother shazraz and got stuck in one of the cage type decorations.

Would advise not using shadowstep!

 

Yes, things likes these do happen, but they are not profile-related. It can also happen with e.g. the Wild Charge of feral druids. Sometimes you just jump, blink, shadowstep into a place where you can't get out of.

 

This (the vendor run in BT) sold all of my pvp gear (I had to use a restore to get it back!!!), and I am really not happy!!! how can we adjust this so it doesn't sell anything but greys?

And a way to stop this from hearthing (since all instances are accessible from shat) would be amazing

 

This really should not happen and I highly doubt it has anything to do with my profiles. Please provide a log ([Guide] How to attach your log) so I can take a look at this nonetheless.

The way my sales mechanics work is that the profile only modifies sales for items that do drop in those raids. It is basically whitelisting raid loot for vendoring from the specific dungeon you run if you can't wear it and it is done based on the item id. Anything else in your inventory is basically forbidden to be sold. There are general problems with sold loot where items are missing from the protecteditems.xml, but, again, this has nothing to do with my vendoring techniques. Still I'd be happy to take a look at it, provided you add a full log. Have you had issues like this e.g. when questing through Kick's profiles? I have been wrestling with sold items at the questing front myself.

So you want it to leave the instance through the entrance? I don't know if that is feasible. In Sunwell Plateau it is impossible, because the way is blocked and even if you were able to do it, you would be stuck on the Isle of Quel'Danas and would have to fly back out to Silvermoon/Ironforge which would take longer. Leaving BT also takes quite a long time, because the dungeon is so large. Then flying to Shattrath hardly seems like we would gain time though I haven't measured it. And going from Hyjal in the Caverns of Time back to Shattrath manually is a tour around the world. If I am misunderstanding what you mean, then please elaborate.

Most of my characters have their hearthstone still at the shrine and maybe I should prioritize using the normal hearthstone before the garrison one if it is bound to shrine because with the portals in there, we could get almost anywhere real quick. What do you guys think?

 

Maybe somehow to give us a choice to select either hearthstone (shrine is the better choice of course as mine is set there as well).
I will attach logs (I have re-logged a couple of times) below, it was the file marked '/Utility/Vendor run [N-QB][Studio60].xml':

 

The challenge with profiles is, that you can't really configure them. I could of course offer a version that would use the other hearthstone, but that would mean I would have to duplicate all acts with exactly the same code but a different filename just so I can switch the last profile to to a different order of used hearthstones. That in turn would mean every user would have to download 2x the profiles for a code change of 8 lines. I don't think that would fly with Bossland as they ask us to keep our footprint small. There are active requests for HB to support some sort of variables in their questbot profiles, but we are not there yet.

The only thing I can think of would be to create a plugin and check for a plugin setting from within the profiles to decide which hearthstone to use and which items to keep, e.g. some sort of Farming Studio Configurator. With that it comes again down to a matter of "return on investment" and public interest. Is it better to work on new profiles, a plugin to improve my existing profiles or my pet battle botbase?

Are you sure you added the right logs? One is you doing DMF and Malygos, the other is you killing Kil'jaeden and then stopping the bot without the vendor script being used.

 

I understand what you mean about the profiles, just a shame is all.

On the other problem here is an Excerpt from the log that was the correct time-frame.

I see that it show it 'can't mail item', however those are the items that ended up sold, I could of course purchase some back, but had to restore the others.

I will see if I can reproduce the error on another character but if not I will chalk it up to a 'weird glitch'

I am wondering if it would be a difficult to have 'Preferred Hearthstone' selection in the 'Settings & Tools' window, then all anyone would have to do is call it up in the profiles and it would allow the selection to made by the user.
I don't know if that's possible but might make for a great feature addition

Thanks for all and if this repeats i will get back to you

 

problem with the sunwell profile. I get just after porting to the Isle:

* Act 01: Journey to the Sunwell Plateau *
**************************************************************
[Profile Message]: Moving to Shattrath Portal: Isle of Quel'Danas
[FlyTo-v1844(fatal)] Toon doesn't have flying capability in this area, and there is no ground path to the destination. Please learn the flying skill appropriate for this area.
Bot stopping! Reason: Fatal error in quest behavior, or profile.

this happened once before in the same spot just after I stopped the bot to change ground mount due to having repair mount selected, and it was having issues with building there on the isle your port into on. I then flew to silvermoon city and restarted. still stopped due to not being able to fly!

edit: I have all riding skill

I am using trial version if that is any different from your paid one.

This is a full log with BT at beginning

 

Yes, I can see the issue. This is a bug that was introduced with me moving to a centralized traveling system. I think I have it figured out. I will do a few tests and if it works, I will push a new version within the next half hour. It might take up to three days until a new version has been approved, but with a bit of luck it will be live sooner. Thank you for finding it and posting a good bug report with a usable log.

This effect should only happen if you stop/start the bot during the travel somewhere that is considered "Outland" but is not actually part of the continent. Silvermoon, Eversong Woods, Ghostlands and Isle of Quel'Danas would fall in this category.

 

Version 1.1.150304.1 has been submitted and is awaiting approval.

Code:

- Fixed travel in outland zones not connected to the continent itself

 

great profile, very happy with it. any chance you have plans to make ones to clear other old raids? the ones for the other two raiding with leashes acheives would be cool, as well as just full clears for cata raids for gold. basically i guess all pre mop raids haha

 

on your first post for the features, you mention that one is HBRelog compatible...are...all of them?

 

I am mixing it up between doing the more difficult and then the easier ones. They are already in the works, so you'll get them soon.

Yes, they all work with HBRelog as will all my future raid profiles.

 

all of this is great to hear, can't wait

 

So, you can start it in your garrison, it'll travel to loaded raid, do it's thing and hearth back to the garrison and log out?

 

Yes, provided you configure HBRelog correctly.

 

Well I'm sold lol, I asked you earlier about possibly buying something that would include all future stuff but you said it's against store policy to sell "unfinished" products....how would that be selling unfinished products, you'd just be updating a finished product that gets new instances

 

I am not sure if that argumentation would fly with Bossland. I would have to define what the bundle does and if I reach a point where I can't do a dungeon, I would probably be screwed (legally). Maybe it is possible, but I wouldn't feel too good about it. It also adds pressure to the job and I already have more than enough of that with my Pet Battle Studio. Not offering a promised dungeon could additionally open the door to refunds and so on and so forth. I'd rather not go that direction. The other (new) issue would be the price with the new store price limits, but this thread is not open to price discussion so I can't go into it. For now you might have to stick with what you get. I will offer AQ20/40 in a bundle though as soon as it is ready.
