[Open Source] Lucky's Spacebot

[Darkbounded]

Well I left it working last night and when I woke up SWTOR wasn't runing, the only thing that I changed in options was Off Time to 1, as far as I understood from it tooltip, thats the time that it will wait before restarting the game after it crashes, so with 1 it should restart it 1 minute after it crashes, if I understood it correctly? And yes I reconfigured the config file... altho when I woke up I found it at 81 wins and 9 lost (I think?) which is approximately 9 hours, so I guess it crashed a while before I woke up, so I gave it a few mins to see if it will restart but nop, nothing...

The Off Time should only affect your scheduled down time. When the client crashes, if it's working as intended it should log back in after timing through the current mission. Since AutoIt is not multi-threaded, there's really no way to check for a crash during missions (which is also why it won't let you exit the bot while it thinks a mission is running).

Anyway, I'll run some tests and see if I can reproduce/fix. We want this starter working!

That message means:

a) Your window is not properly sized or positioned, or
b) Your system didn't recognize the quit image

If b, I would suggest taking your own quit button screenshot, cropping it, and replacing ours with yours. That almost always solves the problem. Let us know!

well for a), it runs all the missions fine with it being calibrated/correct image tolerance, so i don't think that is it. its not even bringing up the menu on the game client to search for the quit game button image. all it will do is sit at the captains chair screen while the message on lucky says that it can't find the button, and goes ahead and resumes the missions. maybe its missing to hit the escape button in the script to bring up the menu?

[Darkbounded]

I also noticed that sometimes there is a huge waiting time between starting a mission again, I mean it runs, runs, runs one mission, 2nd mission, 3rd and then after it goes out of the mission it waits 30-90 seconds before starting again.

And about the restarter, so 237 should work with no extra settings beside my password and the game path?

Yes, it should be hitting escape. This set of lines from the CloseGame() function:

...
WinActivate("Star Wars™: The Old Republic™","")
EventDelay(500)
Send("{ESC}")
EventDelay(1500)
...

should make sure that the game window is active, and then send Escape. I really can't think of any reason it wouldn't be working on your system unless your Escape key is remapped.

It's possible that your system is sometimes taking longer to verify that the ship image is present - it will search for this image before every mission. It's hard to say for sure, though. Can you tell me exactly what is displayed on the debug line at the bottom of the main Lucky's tab when this happens?

EDIT

Good news - I just watched one of my game clients crash, and sure enough, after the mission timer completed, it discovered the crash, logged me back in, and began running missions again. Be sure to wait it out when this happens; the debug line should let you know how much time is left as the bot finishes its current mission.

So I did a small test I don't know if it's intended to work like that, but while it was in the middle of Kalee Fortification I did Alt+F4, and I was watching at the mission timer, it ended then it said Mission Control active so I left it like this for like 15 mins and it didn't started the client and it still is saying the same thing... I triple checked if the game path is correct it's C:\Users\xxxxxxx\Desktop\swtor\launcher.exe and thats exactly what I wrote in the config, the only other otpion that I changed, like i said is the Off Timer to 1 (again on 237)

i think i found the issue. when you're doing crew skills, and the reward box pops up on the screen to accept it, when the program hits escape, it clears that box instead of bringing up the menu to use the quit button. otherwise it seems to be working fine.


so i got the timer to run out, and it waited 5 mins for off time (even tho i set it to 1 min, is this right?), it brings up launcher, puts in pw, gets to char login screen, and the cursor stays at the top right of the screen, going nowhere near the play button, and says it can't find it. tries to restart missions again but can't since its on the char login screen.

Were you doing a daily or the repeated Kalee mission?

I've poked around and I might have a handle on what's causing that issue. I'll post a revision after some testing - this one will include a very nice new feature I've been working on as well.

[Darkbounded]

Repeated, I installed 238 now, will see tomorrow morning how things went

Ah, well that explains it. Crew skills are so buggy that I haven't tested them at all with the starter. I'll see if I can correct that in the upcoming revision.

Per the Off Time, it's set to a minimum of 5, so that is the correct behavior. The Run Time is set to max out at 12 hours also. I'll change the Off Time minimum to 1 and increase the Run Time maximum to 24 hours (crazy, but someone might want to...) in the next revision as well.

[jstine]

is there a way to check for the existence of the accept button before its commanded to hit the escape key? only way i can think of to get around that; otherwise crew skills are working fine for me. i re-downloaded the package tho now and its having an issue with putting in the password (yes, i put in my actual password instead of YourPass) lol. programming is fun.

There's a little function which does just that. We *should* have it working in the upcoming revision.

I also have a longer delay set for password entry since the actual input field often loads a few seconds after the password image.

Still not working for me, apparently it crashed a while ago, and the message now was Mission control: mission selecting advance pending or something like that thats with 238

[yorhey]

Love the bot. It was working very very well. Last night I let it go and got three levels and a ton of gold. 93 missions passed, 2 failed. GREAT JOB.

My issue though is today, the bot has ZERO functionality except resizing my window. What is going on? What did I do? I created new folders from the rar file, fresh ones, that did not work, I downloaded the newest revision, that did nothing. I ran as admin in a bunch of different compatibility modes, nothing. When I click a button, nothing happens.
At the bottom of the bot shows Mission Control: stanby until client ready...

Any help???
