Bot picklock

[Eva Aisling]

I am standing right on top of the door in City of Mist and clicked off levitate. No matter where on the door I stand, my rogue bot will not pick the lock when I use #bot picklock command. I get no message from using the command. Please tell me what I might be doing wrong.

I am using EQEmu-Rev1180a-Bots

#bot corpse summon and #bot ressurectme are not working for me either...

I was in the same zone as my corpse, had myself targeted when issuing the commands, and had a cleric and a necro bot in my group. I also tried targeting my corpse and issuing command. Necro says "Attempting to summon %t" but it never happens. Cleric doesn't give a message.

Not sure on the Summon & Res commands. But I do agree #bot picklock does not work.

I had same thing in Seb with the locked door in there. I had the Rogue bot stood right in the door and it still would not open.

In the end I had to GM myself to open the door.

[Eva Aisling]

What is the GM command to open a door please? I don't see it in wiki list.

#gm on
Click on door
#gm off

The cleric bot does rez. I was just spelling "resurrect" incorrectly.

Still no picklock or corpse summon, though.

i have a working fix for picklock that I put together yesterday. i'll look at corpse summoning and probably check them in together.

[Congdar]

try r1287
target yourself for summon corpse
target the rogue for picklock

[kofac]

Great thanks Congdar I will get that compiled after work and try the picklock tonight

[Eva Aisling]

Yay! Thanks a bunch! I will try it out today.

I was supposed to source 1280_bot_augs.sql, correct? It was the only new files I had in my sql > svn folder after updating server files. I sourced that file and went to city of mist to test and it's still not working for me.

To try and pick lock, I stood on top of that door that acts as a lift to take you to reaver room, targeted my rogue bot, and typed #bot picklock. Nothing happened. If I try the picklock command without the bot targeted, it does say "You must first target a bot!". I tried several places standing on the door without levitate. I have not tested it on a normal locked door yet.

I killed myself to test corpse summon, targeted self, and typed #bot corpse summon. My necro bot says, "Attempting to summon %t's corpse.", casts a spell, and nothing happens. I left my corpse there in case there was anything else you would like me to try.

This is the same result I was getting before sourcing in the new file. The source gave me updated lines with no errors. Could there be something I am doing wrong?

EDIT: I just updated my server files again and there was another file added. You guys must stay busy! The last time I updated was when I made that thank you post!

EDIT: My server files updated to rev 1290 this time. I sourced 1280_bot-augs.sql again and sone lines were updated. I checked the log and it said "picklock and summon fixed", but I tested and results are the same as before.

not sure what to tell you, i tested the sebilis door and the city of mist lift and they both worked for me. The lift was harder, had to move around to the right place before it worked. Same for summon corpse, worked for me. The cast time was the full 5 seconds and then the corpse showed up at my feet. tested both titanium and sof clients.

Piclock works for me to. Just compiled your code. Went to Seb and summoned the bot to centre of the door and bam it opened. Tried it sever times.

Not to great on COM but if its the Black Reaver door I opened that with a bot with no problems to.

The key is to stick your nose into the door before you summon your bot to the door.

They have to be almost inside the door for picklock. I think its always been that way.

If there is another door in COM you want me to try I am more than happy to see if it works.

I never tried summon corpse.

[kofac]

OK just tried Necro Summon Corpse..That worked to as Congdar says it cast the spell and the corpse did come to my feet

Eva Aisling I suggest you might try to re-compile the code see if that fixes the problem.

Not sure if its any help but I am running SOF Client and my Server that runs PEQ is Windows XP.

[Congdar]

for picklock, it's more about where the rogue bot is standing... not where you are standing. Use #bot summon on your targeted rogue bot to move to a new spot and try again.

I tried compiling using a guide here and tried picklock again last night and it worked with the rogue bot standing on the center of the CoM lift. However, corpse summon still did not work for me. I guess I'll read up on wtf compiling does and maybe gain some insight.

I tried getting a coffin, but that didn't work. I removed the need for reagents from some spells, including summon corpse. Would that have any effect on the bot's use of that spell?
