updated spacebot + crewbot

[Astonut]

First and again. check that details set to VERY LOW (it is critical)
1) mentioned in beginnig mission Imperial10Cartel for me working fine. at least completed succesfully
2) for recording-keep in moind what bot looking on the screen, mb you just positioned your ship over the key spot...try to load original flyroute and follow in the beginning the same route

Well unlike some people, I know how to work the program I've been using these since the beginning

All of what I'm suppose to do is correct as far as settings and what not. these 2 missions I mentioned are the only ones giving me issues. I record my own missions all the time and never had any issue up until I started using this program. Again, I get the recording fine on Imperial10Cartel stop the recording session. But once I start the bot to play the mission I just recorded, it starts at different times when the event is suppose to be found. One time it will start right and run it perfectly as I recorded it. The next time it goes to run it, it will start late cuz if found the event late. Thus throwing off the recorded playback enough to make the mission fail.

To be more descriptive of the issues Im having, when I record the mission is picks the ship up from the right immediately as it enters the screen. When in playback, it picks the ship up after its made its way about 25% into the screen, its like the event its picking up is the thruster trail the ship is leaving behind it rather than picking the ship itself. I've even went as far as changing my graphics to see if very low just wasn;t doing it, even messed with my amd graphic settings. No matter what I do the results are the same.

Not that big a deal to me really, I will just use other missions to level instead of that one.

**EDIT**

Ignore my previous post. After messing around with the Tolerance in the coordinates.txt I was able to correct this issue!

Now the bug from me -
Imperial28Taspan,348,124,366,142,Escort 2,Green Moon in Middle,50
doesn't recognised
so i change it to
Imperial28Taspan,120,140,140,160,Escort 2,Yellow Exhaust ,100

but it is strange - recognition does not work with higher tolerance.

PS. Hell . version 368 released.

BredGuy. Is any chance for You to add functions to next release:
1) auto default GUI
2) auto low quality video
3) rich/bountifull mission in case of missed the ordered (blocks from myt post above aer working - checked for 2 days)
4) (just Idea for now) - in case of .... ordered mission available only abundant - bot looking for any higher lvl(or same) rich/bountifull.
5) bug with not stopping space mission (version 366)

how did you get your new coordinates for the new taspan settings?

i saw your posts, it seems like you have a good handle on autoit

why don't you try adding some of the things? it's pretty much open source, i don't mind if you add or remove something, i encourage others to add/subtract from the code

as for the bug with not stopping space mission, what are you referring to exactly?

the problem i see with a lot of these posts about things not working for some people can easibly be remedied if they stop using windows xp (obsolete system), or simply a matter of creating your own images

when i first started using lucky's and untz, this is how i fixed most of my problems, by creating my own images and thinking outside the box a little

fortunately haha, i'm using 3.68 and it's been working as flawless as ever, i've been able to finally leave it overnight without fear of it freaking out in some unforeseen way, i've tried to add and fix all the little things to keep the bot up and running....but like i said, problems will occur because the images i created were made with my own specific system, and unfortunately due to a number of variables, they may not work for everyone's system

edit: it seems you already made your own version, send it to me so i can see it if you don't mind

[UglyObiSecond]

how did you get your new coordinates for the new taspan settings?

You wrote quite predictable and understandable code, so I just check the beginning of mission and made another distinguished spot for mission, then correct the coordinates.txt
as following
Imperial28Taspan,120,140,140,160,Escort 2,Exaust yellow,100

terrible attachment managment do not allow to add attachment for downloading, so i will sent all my pack to you.

i saw your posts, it seems like you have a good handle on autoit

joking ))

why don't you try adding some of the things?

I am using version 366, so.... working almost fine

as for the bug with not stopping space mission, what are you referring to exactly?

Anyone else come back to the computer to see swtor timed out due to inactivity and your character is now in some other part of the ship? So the bot ran it somewhere else and couldn't find the map.

I catch same situation, but alive- i saw the reason(unrecognised spacemission keyspot). as a result - bot conitnue the flying macros, while character already out from mission- looks like bot quitting the mission but did not stopping flycontrol. as a result-character start dance inside the ship. I saw almost same problem in not released yet Lucky 6.0a - STOP commmand not working/

if they stop using windows xp (obsolete system),

for my it is impossible. my backup laptop is down, in service, so i am using the obsollete one, win 7 cant be even started on it....but SWTOR working almost fine), and your bot functioning ;-P

edit: it seems you already made your own version, send it to me so i can see it if you don't mind

in progress. just will add today all my blocks in to your version 368.

3.68 should fix this

whoever posts their problems, please make sure you are using the latest version and make sure the problem still persists

otherwise you'll just be ignored

well, what i meant is the actual coordinates, are you guessing the x and y for the bot to look in? or did you actually use a program to get the coordinates for the location

the 4 numbers after the mission name, x1, y1 = top left location of box to search in, x2,y2 = top right location of box to search in

so, x - 120 -> 140 and y - 140 -> 160 is a VERY small box to look at in the upper left corner of the screen

[UglyObiSecond]

so, x - 120 -> 140 and y - 140 -> 160 is a VERY small box to look at in the upper left corner of the screen

yep. and in my case it is working fine )). just the very begining of the mission

How to catch so small spot : take position of key spot from screenshot, add top and left border and you will have necessary coordinates. Simplest then ever. ;-).


PS waiting at your skype lobby. updated 368 ready. invite me )

Does anyone have a working lvl 50 heroic imperial side space mission recording file they're willing to share lol? I'm too noob to beat all but one of them right now...Also, 3.68 seems to have broken image recognition of the galaxy map bread. I tried at least 10 different cut outs of galaxy.bmp, and it's still not working , even thought it was working perfectly in 3.67

Kudos on the excellent bot system! Coming from Lucky's to this is night and day more reliable!

I had a couple suggestions:

1) Allow indifference for a specific trade skill. For example, don't make a character choose a compound for Bioanalysis. Perhaps even a list box for multiple things you would accept?
2) Perform a validation step at each of the main screens so it knows where in the sequence it is. Even on 3.69, I walked away and came back with my character across my ship from apparent ghost flying due to something getting out of sync and the script thinking it is in a space mission when it isn't.
3) Allow a second or two for each of the transitions between screens to complete. I have noticed that a click on the space mission happens before the zoom in happens. As a result, the sequence continues (in this case, waiting for load screen to disappear, when it is still in the galaxy map). I think it might be a false positive on the image while transitioning possibly causing this.
4) My brother suggested a way to fly missions on multiple characters as well (for leveling purposes).
5) Optional stop point when reaching a specific goal. For example, stop botting and exit if you reach level 27 (and avoid the rumored autoban for botting during level 27), or stop when you reach a prescribed amount of credits (Log out at 1M credits?), or even stop when you max out a certain skill (Diplomacy reached 400, stop botting on that character) These might be per-character options.

I wish I had time to look into adding this functionality myself, but it would be a bit before I am familiar enough with auto-it and the methodology of managing these variables. I'm just tossing ideas out there!

Again, thank you for all your hard work, BreadGuy! I look forward to your future innovations!

How smooth is everyone's playback after they finish recording a regular mission? does anyone else get stuttering and/or delay during the playbacks every few seconds? I'm suspecting my inability to get spacebot working optimally may have something to do with my system.

[swtorbot1138]

any ideas why untzbot recognizes event images perfectly but bread doesnt? I cant seem to get any images to work with bread, but the same files(both script and event images) work with untzbot.

I noticed this too, but after I made my own event images, its working flawlessly. You may need to do the same thing.

Does this not work with alt characters in the names? I can't get the firstchar.jpg to work. I have a few alts in my name.

Death1212, based on what I know about how this program works, it is just looking for the picture to match up with your character name. Make sure you screenshot and crop the name from the character select screen while in 800x600 resolution in the game, and that you capture the nuance of the alt character in that cropped picture. Seeing as 800x600 is fairly craptastic when it comes to text, the ` or ' or ~ or whatever may not be seen or differentiated by the picture parser. In that case, you might be out of luck. These are some of the consequences of alt characters, besides no one bothering to whisper you because they don't have an alt character chart handy.

TLDR summary: Alt characters should be supported, if the picture can clearly see the alt character nuances.

This program is awesome so far; I hate stupid minigames I feel obligated to play. Thanks bread guy for a workaround.

I'm on bread 3.68, windows 7 64 bit OS. Everything's working great; I can work around most problems by creating new images or re-recording. But I'm running into some issues assigning Trea. Lockboxes to the crewbot. When the step comes to click on the mission, it passes over the correct ones without clicking them, saying no such mission is to be found. I've changed the image file, as the original doesn't look great, but that didn't work. I also upped the tolerance as much as I could before it started bugging out, but no luck there either. I can only guess it can be in the code, or there's something else I'm missing. Any help would be appreciated!

@Bread guy: sent you a contact for Skype if you'd rather troubleshoot there. Forum is probably better in case other people have the same issue.

EDIT: Having another, intermittent, issue with the program not realizing when the loading screen is done after selecting a character. Not sure how I fixed it in the first place but it's back again.
2nd EDIT: Switched the theme to default Aero. Not having loading issues now.

well... i'm getting "looking for worldmap" all the time
