I would like to place stockpiles next to my beehive. something like

var coords=getCoords(beehive)-1;
placeStockpile("straw",coords) ;

but since placeStockpile and many other comands need coords in x,y format it doesnt seam to work?
Is there a way to get the x and y coords separatly?

Function getCoords() returns only player coords.
I prefer use getMapObjects() and filter then. But this is shit for script speed

So, placeStockpile() requires item, x and y, not object.
Try something like

Code: Select all

placeStockpile("straw",coords.Coords.x,coords.Coords.y) ;

is there any support for combat? such as knowing openers of yourself and opponent
and the new fishing requires the use of clicking on a window, any chance for some help?

Not yet, I'll work on it, I still dont have a character thats combat safe to be able to stand still and collect data to mess with combat. and test combat controls. SInce iv been gone im pretty behind. Its a eventual goal though

you can just spar one of your alts if you want to play around with combat stuff script wise
pretty much what i did

how am i suppose to stop a script? using the login.js to log in on a character but it's stuck in a loop that won't break.
as far as i can tell, i'm suppose to use 'exit();' to end at the next loop. it does not for me. i've been trying to debug it for an hour or so but login just keeps looping

with this script, it just keeps repeating 'damn' endlessly
(i took out my login info for security)

Code: Select all

var LoginAttempts = 0;
var CharacterSelectAttempts = 0;


function main(){
    CheckLogin();
    CheckChar();
    Checkgame();
   print("damn");
   exit();
}

function CheckLogin(){
    if(getMenu("login")){
        print("Attempting to login");
        if(LoginAttempts < 10) {
            if (login(Username, Password)) {
                print("Logged in under: " + Username);
            } else {
                print("Failed to login(" + LoginAttempts + ")");
                LoginAttempts += 1;
            }
        }else{
            print("Failed to login, script terminating");
            Exit();
        }
    }
}

function CheckChar(){
    if(getMenu("char")){
        print("Attempting to select character");
        if(CharacterSelectAttempts < 10) {
            if (selectCharacter(Character)) {
                print("Selected Character: " + Character);
            } else {
                print("Could not find character " + Character + " (" + CharacterSelectAttempts + ")");
                CharacterSelectAttempts += 1;
            }
        }else{
            print("Failed to select " + Character);
            print("Do they exist? Script terminating");
            Exit();
        }
    }
}

function Checkgame(){
    if(getMenu("game")){
        print("found game!");
        print("login script example finished!");
        print("logging out");
        logout();
        print("Terminating Script");
        exit();
    }
}

edit: not using the login script seems to work great, guess i can't be lazy with logging in now hehe
edit 2: #loadlib is finicky, has to be in the same folder to load and if it has a main function, it loops instead of the loading file. maybe i should instead put the basic functions like nearest object from list into the api.js to make it simple...

There's a big in the way I handle the login script, its on my to-do to redo before next release.

Loadlib is indeed a bit annoying to work with, its being reworked. When I tested it it worked with folders though.

You can't have a main function anywhere but once, this doesnt just apply to my API this applies in java, C++ ect. The main can only exit once for a reason. its the start of your script. this is not a bug.

I will be reworking load lib, but mostly making it conform more with javascript rather than the system we have now.

How can I get free solts in inventory?

Not yet implemented by on its way next release

Hey - love it so far. Been making a couple basic scripts without too much trouble, except for one thing. I'm not sure if I'm using it wrong, but the sendChat() function doesn't seem to work for me.

I've tried a number of variations but none seem to work:
sendChat("text here");
sendChat("text here",Channel.Area);
sendChat("text here,Channel.Area,"Username");

as well as several others. Am I doing something wrong?
Thanks

sendChat was renamed chat a while back

Is there a possibility to get into buildings? Function PfClick and click do not work well is any other option?

Also a function which will read from specific chat will be usefull.

Thanks a bunch! Is there somewhere these changes are documented? I've been using the GitHub readme you have linked on the front page.
