Bot Questions - Bounty Rabbit Problem

Post subject: Bounty Rabbit Problem

Well, the zone I work in has a problem with the bounty rabbit. There are lamers who hide behind a certain object to keep rabbit, in order to win the bounty. I would like to know if there is a bot, which would .newpick when the bounty rabbit goes into a certain tile area.

Of course there isn't, to my knowledge,

but it does announce the location of a player occasionally; also if you do .status, it also tells the current bunny and where he/she is.. :/

Oh yeah some intelligent person made a bot plugin that sends "[.|@|!]newpick" to itself when the bounty rabbit goes into a certain tile area, of course!

Well, no, not really, that'd be a very ugly solution, just ask someone to modify the plugin for you or do it yourself.

Right, it'd have to be a modded plugin.

ill find a diff way to do it.. i dont think the bot can read its own commands, such as

sendPrivate(me, "!newpick");

shouldn't this be in bot questions instead of lvl/lvz?

Me was thinking the same, D1st0rt.

Well, yeah, as I said in my first post in this thread it'd be a very ugly way to do it (and it's inefficient, but if we were taking inefficiency as a problem we wouldn't be using bots), but indeed, with MERV as it is now that wouldn't even be possible.

okay, so I have two bots, would it be possible just to incorporate the .newpick in the bot without the rabbit plugin? and to pm the bot with the rabbit plugin?

Post subject: ummm

Code: Show/Hide

bool closeto(Player *p, int x, int y, int tolerance)
{
return (abs((p->tile.x) - x) < tolerance) && (abs((p->tile.y) - y) < tolerance);
}

if (closeto(p, <x>,<y> <tolerance>))
{
Player *xp = chooseRabbit();

String s;
s += "*arena New rabbit: ";
s += xp->name;
sendPublic(s);
makeRabbit(xp);
}

I thot u said u knew how to program

rofl i jsut noticed it should be in the BOTS section...Sorry people...

Muskrat who are you talking to?

Deadly - Sun Aug 29, 2004 1:38 am
Post subject:

thats not how i was gonna do it..

was gonna look at src for finding a new rabbit (such as if the rabbit leaves).. then make it check when a player moves if its in x,y,x,y area, if it is, new rabbit

Umm it's on catid.ssihosting.com as it always has been.

Post subject:

theres 50%'s bounty rabbit there.. and the src is in there but that plugin doesnt have !newpick, so i dont think thats wat LH is using..

here is the rabbit dll i am using. Since minegoboom wont let me upload a .dll, i "rarred" it. i dont know if it will "de-rar" lol

Deadly - Sun Aug 29, 2004 6:21 pm
Post subject:

rarrrr.. i knew u were using that one but theres no source code that i can get

Cyan~Fire - Sun Aug 29, 2004 11:47 pm
Post subject:

Use 50%'s.

Deadly - Mon Aug 30, 2004 12:59 am
Post subject:

theres no newpick in it

Post subject:

It really doesn't matter. If you have access to the source, just change it code-wise. Sheesh. I'll do it this afternoon.

Post subject:

Thats why you can add it. See all of the code above?

Cyan~Fire - Mon Aug 30, 2004 5:40 pm
Post subject:

PMed LH with a really crappy hardcoded mod of 50%'s plugin. I'll attach a less crappy mod with INI variables when I have time here.

thanks a lot Cyan

Post subject:

well... not realy important... just like a... curiosity lol
why don't you just close the tile area where the guy is hiding?
i mean, if the bot will move ppl out of there its no use letting the space open....
well... like i said, no solution, just asking lol

Cyan~Fire - Wed Sep 01, 2004 8:24 pm

Because other players should be able to go there?
