[Beta] UntzBot (Space Missions Bot, recorder+player)

[thephilz]

OK,big fail on my side...after a windows update ,somehow my screen got reset to aero in stead of classic....
On problem nr 2...i deleted the untzbot folder completely and redowned. After recording a new path all was good again. Seems like the paths can get poisoned by multiple recordings.

But for now, the easy fix, is to clear everything and re-record.

timer and event sync use different script folders, that might be a reason why it seems weird

try to stick with a certain method, its easier that way

///////////

anyway,

here are the next two youtube tutorials for untzbot :

making image sync files : Making Image Sync Files - YouTube
making event sync files : Making Event Sync Files - YouTube

as stated before, the original pre-packaged files will work for im estimating 80% of computers perfectly fine, but the other 20% may need to do some work on the image files

for example, the 'green moon' in the 'escort 2' missions on my computer is a shade LIGHTER than the 'green moon' on my brothers computer. i have no idea why.
this means that the coordinates are correct for both computers, but on his computer, i needed to take a screenshot of the moon again and replace the image file, but the coordinates are fine.
its not exactly the bot/my fault this happens, its just due to computer spec differences (and settings) that makes it like this
so, if event/timer sync fails, just follow these guides and it should work

and 4.1 should have been ready ages ago (companion bot in between missions) but RL stuff is getting in my way (university starts next week!) so yeah, sorry

This works great for about 30 runs and then the bot starts to wander off target/the recorded path. Any solutions for this?

I seem to run into this issue with version 4x after 20+ runs.

Yup,same problem here. But strangely enough it will work as intended after that. Last night i did 93/12....and those 12 were spread all over the 105....
Doesn't really matter much....might even be good for stats in case they ever start checking that.

[worrisome]

Thanks for this, works perfect and earns me lots of cash / comms =D

[Goldenwing]

First of all, great work on the program...works very nicely! If this works well for my alt up through 33, I'll definitely be donating, as will a friend who I recommended it to.

Questions:
I realize that using this is an "at your own risk" kind of thing, but I was just wondering what the liklihood of getting a partial or permanent ban for using it is? I mean no one is going to see you to report you obviously, but couldn't BioWare simply look and flag accounts that did more than X number of space missions per day? especially the same one over and over...OR, (coming from wow) is there something similar to Warden that tracks processes?

Great job man, from the first release to now major improvements I am impressed at your abilities. But I do have some questions/concerns.
I have noticed that the bot loves to record mouse movements more than the direction arrow movements, this is really not that big of a deal
but I am comming up on a snag on drexel sweep, so I just decided to run hydian. On drexel there are two areas that require either dodging or the use of
the immunity cooldown. First area is when you first see the destroyer, my dodging maneuver is to make large circles with the directional keypad, I do this, and
then on the replay the bot does not repeat it, however; if I use the mouse to make this maneuver the bot does repeat it. Well you could just say just use the mouse
then, but the issue comes up if I am using the mouse to move around in circles it is kind of difficult to target the turrets on the bottom of the destroyer ship thing. So then I choose to use the immunity cd, but then afterwards u are hit by a big swarm of ships, and at that point I need to dodge or use the immunity cd, so I was wondering if there anyway to make the bot records the directional keys better, or is this just as good as it will get or am I doing something incorrect?

is the relogger coming with the next version? my internet is ****in garbage and i dc every night

ah yes the beloved drexel .. at the moment WASD is not recorded, which is why it does not move with your keyboard - the extra input lag is enough to ruin the sync, apparently, so i removed it for now, but am planning to add it in some day

but as for how i do my own recordings for this mission .. what i did was to dodge the destroyer's turrets while blowing it up with missiles ONLY at the start, so just go around in circles nonstop while missile-ing it, i usually get 7/12 by then
then, when the 'boss ship' comes up right after, you nonstop shoot at it and fire missiles at that nonstop until it dies - at this point you should still have over 3/4 of your hp
then shortly after comes the swarm i believe, i use shield around 10 seconds after the 'boss ship' dies i believe, then just blow up everything in my way, then continue spiraling+missile-ing. by now, maybe half hp, but from here on out, you really shouldnt lose much hp at all
then towards the very end when you go up over a rock then down under the next one, the destroyer should be in your sights once again, when you can easily get 12/12 (you can actually go from 0/12 straight to 12/12 at this point)

well, thats how ive been doing my recordings for this run anyway

is the relogger coming with the next version? my internet is ****in garbage and i dc every night

the relogger is working right now but its currently garbage as it closes your client sometimes due to some error i forgot to iron out

//

with that said, here is a minor fix for the deathcheck that helps with NOT closing swtor
the particular bug it fixes is when you get disconnected and it says something about 'server list' then when you hit 'okay' it closes your client, it simply presses 'esc' instead, which makes it NOT close the client. thats all.
its literally a one line fix, but it actually helps me a lot (my net is shitting up a lot)

i have planned for 4.1 to re-do the deathcheck later on which involves not reading botstatus.txt (which i believe is the cause of some other crashes), but it will not work the current 4.0x, so i will hold that off as well until they are both ready

in the meanwhile, you can have a look at the alpha version of my companion bot script, i guess .. basically ill just shove this companion script into untzbot when 4.1 is ready (english only atm)
how to use : just press q, then x when youre done, like usual

[vlein]

thanks man, regarding the DC. I read your previous reply to me and understood that it messes up because when you DC, it sometimes pops up two windows instead of one and hitting ok closes the client. Instead if you have the bot hit the 2 "x's" it wont close the game and you can go back into the server list. Ill try the new version out also

I've posted this elsewhere - but I'll share here too. @thephilz - Contact me if you would like to work together. I'd be happy to share what I've been working on.

I've actually been working on some improvements to this bot/application. I've managed to add a little logic that compensates for the lag / delay that can be introduced on slower or older computers. I've also been working on a way to properly use or translate a recording done on another computer (that may have been faster), allowing it to run on any unrelated computer.

My laptop is quite dated, and was never able to run the bot successfully (it runs SWTOR decently on all low settings). It would always lag / get out of sync, and fail. I've been testing my modified version, and was recently able to get it running with 95%+ (218 wins, 7 losses) success on my laptop.

I'll try to put something together for everyone to test out.

just dced, still closed swtor with the new deathcheck

also, the image check for login3 cannot be the play button because sometimes during dc, even if it clicks play, the character is still logged into the game and you will get kicked back into the char select screen, except this time the play button will be glowing because the mouse will still be over it.

maybe look for create character and make it hit play, idk how autoit coding works

Hi,

I'm trying to do Mugar Icefield(34), my problem is that the bot starts off fine but towards the end it always misses the last two yellow ships that are part of the mission. I tried my best to compensate this by trying to lock on to them in a an extra wide area and shooting but it always seems to run out of sync at this last part
I noticed that if I drag my mouse to the edge of the screen more specifically to the bottom left it goes out of sync right away so I avoid this now, but I don't know what else could be causing it to desync at the end of the mission. I took a leap of faith and kept it going through the night and I had over 70 failed missions and 3 completed....

Using 4.0x and debugger says everything is fine. Running on a decent laptop with 6gig ram, i7 core and Geforce GTX 550m on lowest setting with my own sync file.
Any tips or suggestions?

Well I don't have a repub char, but from what I hear it should be identical to Sullust.
I rebound my strafe keys so I cant even weave left and right unless I use arrow keys.
Anyways, I've been able to get to that mini boss ship with full health/shields and in my opinion its best to toss up the emp 2-3 secs after he shows up.
As soon as he flies into view I toss all 4 missiles at him, then emp. He is the cause for 75% of the damage I receive in the beginning. The first batch of ships approaching will be the next burst.
Now missiles are slow so worthless against the guys in the distance. So what I do is only shoot missiles at that boss, while firing blasters in the distance for the other ships.
I can usually get through that whole ordeal with just shield damage, or 15-20% to my armor tops.
Then switch back to shield regen and only missile the next few targets. either quick doubles for instant kill, or tag all of them with 1 missiles, switch off shield regen, pop em, repeat.

apparently, the 44+ missions are currently broken due to the unknown regions area of the galaxy map having a sudden change in how you enter them

ill wait until i get more confirmation before implementing a hotfix

yeah .. i realized i uploaded a slightly 'outdated' version where the mouse would click 'play' then move downright, and out of the swtor screen, making it still hover over the play button in swtor

here is the 4.0x2, hopefully it works for you like it worked for me

my net bombed recently for around 3 minutes and all i heard was constant 'click' 'loading screen noise' ... wait .. 'click' 'loading screen noise' ... wait .. until it got back in, upon which it promptly disconnected again and repeated until i fell asleep
