Haerikk> You have to use "#bot update" on your bot at each leveling (mainly when they have new spells), then you have to repop them.

Yes, but I will re-extract all the maps + the newer ones that came out recently, and try again.

Here's another 2 for ya (if you were bored):
1) #bot spawn - equipped bots are naked until they are grouped. scared the hell out of me, thinking all my bots gear was gone! ;)

2) Mage bot inventory is not saved. I'll go through all the other classes today and let you know if there are more.

Loot
 

Is it a known issue that when you are grouped with a bot that the corpse vanishes without the chance to loot?

Also had that happened but only a couple times, seems to be when the bots do the majority of the damage and get the last hit... which i think is in the NPC encoding more than bot's themselves...

Tried it
 

I have tried to make sure i did the most of damage and last hit. It still vanishes before the chance to loot. Disband the bot and all is normal. Yes. i believe you're right about the npc encoding. I have noticed i cannot let the bot do any damage at all while grouped. Then i can loot it.

Hello,


""" 1) #bot spawn - equipped bots are naked until they are grouped. scared the hell out of me, thinking all my bots gear was gone!

John> yes, you will only deal (and see their their stuff) with bots if they are grouped or raiding.
As for the mage's inventory, it's working as intended. What happened exactly ? was the bot grouped ?

""" Is it a known issue that when you are grouped with a bot that the corpse vanishes without the chance to loot? """

Topgun1969/Zengez> Are you talking about the bot's corpse or the killed npc's corpse ? because, yes, you can't loot the corpse of your bot.
Now, if you're talking about the killed mob's corpse, this shouldn't happen. I've made a good amount of tests today and didn't notice that. Could you give more info please.

Marie> did :)


G'day,
Mag

Updates:

-- Mob's corpses shouldn't poof anymore.
-- As asked, I've removed the limitation of 4 groups in raids. You can now have the number of groups that you want to in your raid.
-- "#bot raid info" is now working.
-- "#bot raid order task attack/follow/guard/assist" are now working.

Yeps
 

Great job my friend.. Looting works great :)

Sorry for sounding way too stupid.

But to use your excellent mod all I need to do is using your binaries /in windows) to start my server?
And IF is it then ok to rename them to zone and world?

Bjerlk

Yes, you also need to do some databse changes:

Working smooth™

Thanks for a great project...
Now I just need to "solo" VP and similar.

Thanks again for extending my enjoyment hehe....

First, I created a mage bot, then spawned him and grouped him. Then I sat picking through valid Mage gear, handed it to the bot so he was wearing it. If I go to the botsinventory table, that bots botid is missing. But other bots showed their info just fine - just the mage bot so far. I didn't have time this weekend to check all the other classes.

What I was also going to try is manually entering the data into the botsinventory table and see if the gear is retrieved properly. Haven't done that yet either.

He was a DE Mage, if that matters, and I was level 70 GM at the time.

Updates:

-- fixed a zone crash while raiding. It happened when a full group of bots wiped.
-- added a new command, group related this time: "#bot group order attack [target]". It will force your group to attack your target even if your grouped bots are already engaged.

crash
 

I don't know why but I can group a bot but i still get the crash in the zones at times. Everything will stop moving and the bot will stop following. I am using the windows binaries. I double checked all installations and they are current. I know that it doesn't support multiplayer yet. So i try solo. Is there something i am doing wrong?
