What's the problem, I've looked at your repo and you appear to have pushed the merge successfully

Please get back to me

[Bubokastor]

Give url on patch. Src version 10746.

Give url on patch. Src version 10746.

Eh? :rolleyes: Too cryptic! A please would be nice

If your asking whether we post ready made patches for you to download, the answer is no. Either merge the code from either of the repos

https://github.com/blueboy/mangos

or

https://github.com/blueboy/portal

or you can create a standalone patch from these. A script to do this has been posted many times in this forum. You've just got to look :cool:

The current code should be fine with MaNGOS[10746]. If not, let us know

Hope this helps

What merge patch from these assemblies if it is difficult not to explain?

[blueboy]

What Merge патч (Russian for patch) from these assemblies if not difficult explain?

Hi,

I would like to help you and I understand that English might not be your first language. I gather you want instructions on how to merge from the repos. The following link will get you started

https://github.com/playerbot/mangos/wiki

1. To get playerbot code

git clone git://github.com/blueboy/mangos.git master

cd mangos

2. To merge with the latest MaNGOS

git remote add mangos git://github.com/mangos/mangos.git

git pull mangos master

Hope this helps

hey blueboy first off, awesome work, my server cant live without them:)

Anyway is there a way to force playerbots to use my mmaps system?

Maybe this would help, stopin them from jumpin around like crazies

hope you can give me a clue to solve this one

[kyle1]

If "my mmaps system" is faramir118's project then there's nothing to force. Pathfinding works fine for bots. If "jumpin around" means "teleporting while moving" then mmaps has nothing to do here. It's a playerbot problem which I hope will be solved soon.

Cheers.

[DuB]

of course I mean faramirs system, sorry for my bad english, I'm german:(

ok what about making bot move behaviour like the one used for pets? Pets move appropriate, cant that base of movement dont be used for bots?

[blueboy]

Hi DuB,

bot movement is already as good as pet movement. Also, if you have mmaps installed properly, I'm surprised you have not noticed bots making full use of pathfinding. There are some issues with bot movement true, that kyle1 has already mentioned and these will be sorted out in time.

EDIT: Maybe the "jumpin around like crazies" is caused by a network lag. If you have any of the following,

* large number of users connected to your server

* poor internet connection

* without a dedicated server (i.e running server and client on the same machine)

they will cause jerky behaviour generally.

Cheers

[conan513]

bots are perfectly use mmaps pathfinding but not anywhere

in instance (tested in gnomeregan) bots and mobs use pathfinding good

[DuB]

thanks for the answers

I think it is the third thing you mentioned blueboy

"server/game on same maschine"

sorry for being stupid:(

keep up the good work

[DuB]

my problem was I didnt extract all mmaps-.-

I'm a fuckin stupid noob

anyway I got a idea, if you are runnin with 2 or more bots, then you stop, they stay in eachother ( I hope you know what I mean)

now my question

in the playerbot.conf you can edit the minfollowdistance, so bots keep distance to player by 1 or whatever you configured,

now what about changing bots keep distance to eachother and not player only

would that not stop them melting to one person?

[a382453]

I just wanted to thank blueboy and the other people who have worked so hard on playerbot.

I got it working today (on my private server) and i have been exploring with my small group of 5 characters.

This is the coolest thing ever....you guys are the greatest!!

Core modifications this morning which impact playerbot code => few small problem

Core modifications this morning which impact playerbot code => few small problem

Thanks, I was already aware of this. They have moved the location of 'vmap' code in the core. I have updated the portal code to compensate for this, but will wait a little time before I change the blueboy code. Just in case they decide to change it back :rolleyes:

The code on portal compiles and runs fine on *nix sytems. I have not tried it yet on Windows. If you do experience problems, can you post details.

If you are using 'mmaps', then at present this code does not work. I'm sure it won't be long before the mmap team fixes this issue.

Hope this helps

This is not an issue as such. Collison happens in the normal game. As a player (without playerbot) try to run through an NPC character and see.

It is possible to make terrain (ground & buildings) solid because they are fixed or static. Players, pets NPC and bots are dynamic and it is difficult to predict with any certainty where one object will be in relation to another, at any instances (something like Heisenberg's Uncertainty Principle) :cool:

In other words collison is inevitable.

The config option,

# PlayerbotAI.FollowDistanceMin

# PlayerbotAI.FollowDistanceMax

# Min. and Max. follow distance for bots

# Default: 0.5 / 1.0

is used to control bot crowding about the player and does not prevent collison

Hope this helps

hmm there's an error in the lastest core compile , it cant find worldpacket.h library but i see its path is correctly put.

Can you post the errors that your getting and details about your system (i.e windows or *nix). I had this issue just after the recent vmap re-location and I corrected the paths for WorldPacket.h. Are you using the latest code on portal or blueboy

Cheers

[vladex]

of course , im OS: windows 7 x32 and im using your master branch(blueboy).

[blueboy]

That explains it. I have only pushed changes to portal, until things settle down with the core.

in the meantime you can edit the files PlayerbotAI.cpp, PlayerbotClassAI.cpp and PlayerbotMgr.cpp according to

-#include "../WorldPacket.h"

+#include "WorldPacket.h"

Please let me know if this fixes the issue on Windows I have only tested it on *nix

Hope this helps

hi blueboy,

I still got a compile error:(

I used your portal.git

then I'm also usin mmaps (faramir118), ahbot (cyberium), tried it out right now, newest branch

shall a wait for a fix or can i solve this problem by myself?

i always delete my mangos source folder and use git from scratch

1. mkdir mangos

2. cd mangos

3. git init

4. git pull git://github.com/mangos/mangos.git

5. git pull git://github.com/cyberium/mangos.git ahbot

6. git pull git://github.com/blueboy/mangos.git (portal.git)

7. git pull git://github.com/faramir118/mangos.git

8. git remote add mangos git://github.com/mangos/mangos.git

9. git pull mangos master

also if there are merge conflicts

1. git mergetool -y

2. git commit -a -m "DuB"

aint wrong?

[kyle1]

When posting about compile errors make sure you have copied compiler output into your message. This will make devs' life a bit easier

[DuB]

ups sorry

here it is

http://pastebin.com/f3WYwqh2

Ok I think it got to do with ahbot

mail???

if I'm right sorry for postin here

[blueboy]

Hi Dub,

If your getting compile errors, what are they?

Have you tried the code on portal, as I have just said to vladex. The code on blueboy was last updated for MaNGOS[10744]. They have since moved vmaps to a new location, causing a number of issues. The code on blueboy will be updated soon, once all issues with the core have been resolved. I noted that the source for vmap_assembler and vmap_extractor_v3 in the contrib folder, still have not been adjusted.

As kyle1 says, if you wish to be helped, you must help us by providing all available information on errors
