blueboy: You're really the best Thank you so much. I'll test it as soon as VS has finished compiling. But the patch failed again i've made it by hand. Like i said before: I HATE PATCHING! Regarding the Carbonite-thing: It wasn't as simple as i thought... i've deactived Carbonite, but the bots keep asking... now i'll check every addon in my list. Item DB like Joubarbe said can't be the reason, because i don't have it.

Cause i have the samee problem, i'll answering too i'm using UDB, with the german additions. Edit: @klyxmaster: Normally i'm playing with a group of friends... but when they aren't online, i use the bots... But while playing with my guys i can talk to them, so it isn't too stupid to wait for the mobs/items/anything else to respawn. Btw made my bots 3 levels while collecting the sprouts from the quest. Sure, i can drop the quests for them, or autocomplete them, but i want to play, and not configure the bots...

i don't ignore all quests but some of them, like such where i have to collect a large amount of items. The most experience comes from killing... and, if its really needed, via GM-command Its really hard to collect items when you have more than one or two bots. Edit: an example: This is a quest, which drives me insane. For each bot 10 items + your 10. Actually i have 4 bots... i have to collect 50 items only to complete this quest... and no, these items cannot be dropped. i have to send each bot to each timberling to collect the sprouts.

i want to deny all quests for all bots because when i run with 4 to 9 boths through the world, i can't collect so much quest items for all bots

Sounds really cool btw... is it possible to forbid the bots to take quests? maybe a command or an config-setting... i've switched to a bot today, and he has about 40 incomplete quests

like i do my bots get all of the junk items... and my inventory is free for useful stuff. Carbonite is really annoying with the messages. but i don't want to miss it, cause it has some cool things, which i never found elsewhere. But i have to use an old version of it, cause newer version require Wow 4.x. I had to delete Carbonite only on my 4.0.6 Arkcore-Server, cause it slows down my game extremely. sometimes i had only 10 fps... Titanpanel runs flawlessy here. No Spam, no crap... but back to topic: i'll test the new "chat-filter", and report back. The Debug-thing remains in the code, maybe i find some other addons which cause errors.

didn't you forget a ; in the code above? since which rev. the bots want to have the items when its time for rolling dices? i've lost some good things to them Wasn't it so, that they automaticly(? is that a word? ) pass?

thanks for this but i've used Carbonite since i've started playing WoW. And never i've got this. Must be the New-Ai

here is the relevant entry from a log: Is copied right after talking to a questgiver.

did you see, that this topic is from 2010?

I'll try it. I saw, you're filtering the texts from addons. Do you have any experience with Carbonite? I think, it could be one of the things that cause this. IIRC it posts a message in the group-chat when completing a quest, and sometimes the bot(s) react on this message. (i have to say bots, cause atm i'm walking with 4 of them )

@blueboy: any news regarding my problem with the bots who talk when i collect quest-items?

nope, works fine for me... the bot sells all junk, and tells me, which other he has to sell.

idk if its the new-ai branch or on all branches, but in the playerbot.conf is following entry: set this to 1, and you're done I'm working on an addon, which should make "botting" easier, but its my first contact with lua, so it can take a while.

Heres a screenshot with the crashed server Please ignore all addons i have

Hey Thanks for this much infos, blueboy. if tried it exactly like you said, but, the /p command posts the "Skill learn" in the group chat, and the bot says nothing. with /w he replies the skills. Thats what i did before. The trainerwindow wasn't open, he only was selected. After Shift-Click on one of the reported skills he doesn't reply anything, but the server crashes. Thats quite simple. The format of the above text is caused by the Addon Chatter. I'm taking this quest, kill a Mana Wyrm, and drop the required Item for the quest. When i looted the Mana Wyrm, the bot thinks i'm talking to him. Its the normal chat, no whisper, no group or else. //Edit: Regarding the Translation: Database would be nice, maybe a new table named locale_playerbot or similar. So you can find it in phpmyadmin or navicat or else.

I would be glad if i can help If i could speak c++, i would fork the playerbot and work on it... but so... I'll try to deactivate the chat-addon an report back //Edit: i've deactivated the Chat-Addon, and tried to simply use the chat. And the bot says the same thing as above again. Couldn't be the addon

That was the point, i was playing as GM. With a new account, without GM-Rights, all works as expected. Nope, it crashes again... i'll upload the crash-log But, a new... let me say inconsistency. Evertime i loot a quest item, the bot answers as if i talked to him. sorry for the german text, but i think you know what is meant. This only occurs if i loot questitems or when i get a new quest. Maybe its an error in the new-ai branch. //Edit: Another question: Would it be possible to move the output (Answers, questions and so on) from the bot to the database? So it would be translatable, and the bot doesn't only speak english //Edit 2: heres the link to the crashlog: Crashlog

Yeah... i could compile Then its time to test. Btw. i've played with the master branch from the portal-repo, and my undead Warrior-Bot couldn't learn any skills from level 1 to 8. I've tried it a few times, and every time the server crashed.

I don't know, but i don't believe its that easy... because in PlayerbotAi.cpp are many important functions...

Try the correction from the last commit, Blueboy has made a typo-correction

Which branch do you use? Sharedbots? New-Ai? Master?

Please post the previous errors (there ARE some in the log).

Awww... i ran into compile errors again

No problem I'm glad if i can help. Tomorrow starts a log test of the New-Ai Bot. 2 Players, complete new game, every with one or two bots... It will be tested extensively
