I think I started playing sometime around March of 2012.

I do know that a former dev made some changes to bot behavior between then and the time that I started working on them more mainstream.

The only real changes, previous to the recent ones, that I've made were the new command system and heal rotations.

I know the command system seems a bit unintuitive, especially coming from the old system. But, it is completely separated from the main system
now and allows much more flexibility without all of the duplication that the original system had. (Not trying to sell it )

Thanks and thanks!


This is what causes bots to stand around and drool: https://github.com/EQEmu/Server/blob.../bot.cpp#L2217

Casters stop much further out if they are moving (following) when the target is engaged. This led to the problems listed in the remarks above that line.

That is my next project..figuring out what to do in those cases.


Bard song twisting got fubar'd for a number of reasons..one being my timer hack for instant recast songs.

The reason that was done was to fix an issue where only one song within a certain level range was being cast repeatedly.

That particular issue has been resolved with the bot using proper recast time.
