EQoffline, bots and more..

This would be useful for a lot of different things, a quest for a perma body guard, a quest where you have to help an NPC with a kill... etc etc.

I could see uses for this even on the legit servers.

Ok, I've added a bot inventory.

Each bot has 21 slots in their inventory just like a Client.

Once an item is added to their inventory, their stats are updated immediatly. (The client will have to zone in order to see the stats changes on his bot with #showstats but it's just a visual issue.)

Now, let's take an example:
- You loot on a mob a helm. The stats on the helm are +10ac +5str ...
- You give the item to the bot and the stats will be actual_ac=actual_ac+10, actual_str=str+5, etc...

For the moment, there is no check on the slot that can wear the item but I'm planning to add it.

Hi magoth78, i have to say that it looks a nice idea, it would be great to have bots available for hire.

Hello there,

I also like the idea a lot and that's why I've officially started to work on this project some days ago.

At the moment, I'm working on the bots inventory.

What I've made so far is :

- You loot an item
- You give it to a bot of your choice. If its race/class can equip the item, it places the loot in its inventory (in the right slot) and then, it equips this item. If it has already an item in the same slot, the old item will be remplaced by the new one.
Once the item is in the bot's inventory, the bots stats will change immediatly depending of the item stats.

I will also make the bots showing them wearing the stuffs they have in their personnal inventory.

g'nite,
Mag

hey Magoth78, it is great to see anybody working on a idea like this. It would give a lot of life to offline servers.

Thank you for try it.

So will you get back the old item or does it disappear? Also, what do you plan on doing with No Drop items, just the same thing?

This project looks awesome.

Hello,

In the actual state, if you give an item to one of your bot, the old item is remplaced (and it's lost) and the new is equiped by the bot.

About the No-drop items, you can give a nodrop to one of your bot. I don't feel like coding the bots so they can loot for you

It is enought good, i think.

Hi, I would like to make modifications to this system and I would like to know if this is possible or not with your creation.

I will give an example server.

On this server, I want players to be able to create a guild. Now once they have created their guild, they then have the choice to add 3 bots to their guild choosing any class and race (after which they cannot ever change what they have chosen). These bots can be utilized by any of the guild members.
Also, the bots would begin at level 1 and it would be the guild members responsibility to level these bots. Here is a command list idea of what im talking about..


#guildbot list -Lists bots accordingly to class, race and level.
<GuildName> Bot List
23 Warrior, Barbarian ID:242
42 Cleric, Dwarf ID: 243
12 Rogue, Dwarf ID: 244

#guildbot summon id -Summons the bot ONLY if you're in the zone in which it was created.

#guildbot create class race -Creates one of the 3 allowed bots in the guild.
(Only for the leader.)


I don't know if I am dreaming but I think this would be very cool to allow members to add bots to their guild.

I was wondering, if using the EQofflince binaries broke #peqzone ?
I am getting a command unrecognized error now. Command is still listed in the DB.

Also, thank you Magoth78
