I can help you out there: filebeam.com link.

I've merged the bots with build 1102. Have fun! Source and EXE's
Several crash fixes
Set bots to not aggro when set to "guard"
Caster bots will report they need to meditate

Nice.

I just finished doing that myself, minus the changes you made. Thanks!

Where do you #def EQBOTS so they will be available when compiling in Linux (Debian 4) or is there something else that needs to be done?

Not sure for linux compiles, sorry. In Visual Studio you add EQBOTS to the preprocessor settings. Not sure if it's necessary but I add it to the zone, world and emusharemem components.

To define a symbol for the pre-processor you need to add -D<symbol> to the compiler command line. e.g.:

Code:

#include <stdio.h>

int main() {

#ifdef EQBOTS
        printf("EQBOTS defined\n");
#endif

}

entwisd@rama ~ $ g++ test.cpp
entwisd@rama ~ $ ./a.out
entwisd@rama ~ $ g++ -DEQBOTS test.cpp
entwisd@rama ~ $ ./a.out
EQBOTS defined
entwisd@rama ~ $

I've not tried this bots code, but I would guess adding -DEQBOTS to the first DFLAGS line in zone/makefile should be all that is required, i.e. change

Code:

DFLAGS=-DEQDEBUG=5 -DCATCH_CRASH -DNO_PIDLOG -DSHAREMEM -DSPELL_EFFECT_SPAM -DFIELD_ITEMS -DCOMBINED -DAPP_OPCODE_SIZE=2 -Di386

to

Code:

DFLAGS=-DEQDEBUG=5 -DCATCH_CRASH -DNO_PIDLOG -DSHAREMEM -DSPELL_EFFECT_SPAM -DFIELD_ITEMS -DCOMBINED -DAPP_OPCODE_SIZE=2 -Di386 -DEQBOTS

then do a make clean; make

You also need to add the 3 bot files to the makefile to compile. so in zone/makefile.common

Code:

../common/guild_base.o guild_mgr.o

becomes:

Code:

../common/guild_base.o guild_mgr.o botRaids.o botAI.o petAI.o

Thanks Derision and Cavedude, that was what was needed. It compiled and appears to be working fine.

If I am running the latest PEQ database from CVS is there a need to drop the npc_spells_entries table and replace it with the one from the link in the readme? I noticed that the bot tables are already put in and isbot is added to npc_types by default in PEQ.

**Congdar** · #**385** 03-12-2008, 03:02 AM

I wouldn't, that sql file is pretty old and missing much of what is in the current table.

cubber · #**386** 03-12-2008, 03:14 AM

Great thanks for the reply. I just want to make sure I got this right, there is a lot of info in this thread. So on a linux server after downloading your 1102 sources all I would have to do is:

1. Change the following in zone/makefile:

Code:

DFLAGS=-DEQDEBUG=5 -DCATCH_CRASH -DNO_PIDLOG -DSHAREMEM -DSPELL_EFFECT_SPAM -DFIELD_ITEMS -DCOMBINED -DAPP_OPCODE_SIZE=2 -Di386

to:

Code:

DFLAGS=-DEQDEBUG=5 -DCATCH_CRASH -DNO_PIDLOG -DSHAREMEM -DSPELL_EFFECT_SPAM -DFIELD_ITEMS -DCOMBINED -DAPP_OPCODE_SIZE=2 -Di386 -DEQBOTS

2. Then change the following in zone/makefile.common

Code:

../common/guild_base.o guild_mgr.o

to:

Code:

../common/guild_base.o guild_mgr.o botRaids.o botAI.o petAI.o

3. run make

4. copy the world, zone , and libEMuShareMem.so files from the bot source to my current working server directory replacing the normal world, zone and libEMuShareMem.so files, and run my start script that I use to normally start my server.

Then if I wish to revert back to my old server just copy the old world, zone, libEMuShareMem.so files back to the working server directory over the bot files.

Thanks

Not sure if \common is the correct place for those files. The original eqoffline source files are in the \zone folder.

**cavedude** · #**388** 03-12-2008, 03:40 AM

That's absolutely correct, cubber. Though, to toggle between eqoffline and normal binaries you only need to swap out zone. The other binaries are not changed.

../common is the location of guild_base.cpp and guild_base.h. If you notice, the other 4 files after it have no directory, so the makefile will just use its current directory for those, which of course is zone.

cubber · #**389** 03-12-2008, 03:45 AM

Thats how I thought the line read thanks cavedude! So basically the only thing I need to compile after downloading the 1102 source linked above is zone. Since I already have a 1102 eqemu server running.

**cavedude** · #**390** 03-12-2008, 04:00 AM

Yep, that's it.
