New Bot commands, Do you want them?

[Angelox]

It can all be done, just takes time and a lot of testing - I did make a Druid evac , so wizard can just be added to the list.

I just submitted '#bot charm' to SVN; thing is, your chanter cannot have the normal pet else all that happens is the charm target will aggro. What I did was add the chanters pet to the '#bot group remove' list, so you can remove before casting charm.

It appears to all work fine.

If you see any problems with any commands, please post, we need the input. I try and test everything, but something always passes my by - I usually see extra problems when I start playing for real.

Thanks angelox, it would be nice to have wizards added to the list of evacer's as well as offering ports/tls.

After farting around with it a bit more I started playing with a ranger bot and tracking. Its great! Any plans on having the ability to locate a mob with it in the future? For instance I see a mob on the list I wish to track so I click it, and it proceeds to tell me its is to the right, left, straight, or behind just like the normal tracking skill.

In reality, true Tracking is controlled by the client (I figured that out after days of head busting), the only way it works, is if you play a tracker class. We think it might have been blocked by SOE as so as to curve cheating. Since we are not allowed to alter the client in anyway, the solution has to be found in the server/source. The whole tracking system has to be developed from scratch, if you want to use it for bots.

What you see now was mostly done by Derision at my request (Derision made and showed me how to work with the new bot tracking window).
I think it can be improved, there's other windows like the "/find" npc one, which would draw you a line to the NPC; It may not be protected, and we might can use it.
But without people like Derision and Congdar, I'm nothing else but a bunch of 'good ideas'

Gotcha thanks for the info. Still the ability to see the mobs that are up, without having to level up and box a tracker is a big plus.
