A working Mounted Combat grind setup

[Fano]

I solved working with Mounted Combat. Keep in mind that the behavior still operates like a regular on foot bot.

Here is the XML, with an explanation following:

Code: Select all

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>

The skill bar change does some strange things to the program, so here are the work arounds. Put ALL your mounted combat skills on either skill bar 4 or 5. This is necessary to allow them to execute using the skillid. You can also use the quickbarindex method but it is less elegant. The only skill that has to use the quickbar index is the mount skill, which I placed in spot 46 on my on foot skill bar, and I placed on spot 45 on my mounted tool bar.

The reason for this is that upon the skillbar change over the bot gets confused and tries to re-execute the skill causing it to loop over and over mounting and unmounting the horse.

Another thing to avoid it using the casted="true" flag on the mount skill as it will then stop working when mounted. I'm not sure the reason for this at all, but after combat when it tries the mounted buff, is instead sits in a "rest" state.

The last thing you have to do before running the bot, is that you need to set the horse speed to cap at either walk trot or canter, but not gallop. The slower the better for the purposes over movement, because the bot will constantly run past the path point and try to return and never make it. I personally use the Trot as the Cap, because I have a good connection, but anything else just gets wonky.

The logic of my bot is that the captain calls the archer, does buff then mounts up and grinds. If dismounted it will auto attack until combat is over (or death) and the remount and start all over.

If you have any questions let me know.

Hello everyone, when I do "DUMP SLOT" on the horse, the horse with the skill note, I did not download the file already "ID of SKILL." As you have done to have the codes of the attacks?
Thank you.

I find if you "quickbarslot" a /follow command as a pull or precombat it keeps you in pace with the mob.
