Bot Quest Script

[Krugus]

Ok I was just sitting around yesterday and an Idea hit me.

Why not add the bot commands via saylinks to a quest script and put them in the templates folder? Since all the saylinks does is make you say the #bot command there was really very little scripting needed for it. Granted I'm just a newbie and I'm still at my crawling stages when it comes to perl scripting...

Here is what I have so far:

#Bot Event Script
#Just Hail and click!
#Most of the bot commands are listed here if you see one missing click the #bot help to find the missing command.

Here are some screens of it in action:










It works but the only problem so far is: You would need one for each BOT. Yikes! Works great on small servers like mine where there are only a few people.

One problem I did run into with Bots having quests is if I try to use the bots NPCID (999138.pl) it will not work but if I use their name (Zargoth.pl) it works just fine.
The bot quest script is located in the templates folder. Not sure where to go from here? Any thoughts?

[WildcardX]

Looks great! FNW was talking to me about this idea earlier this spring. He also believed the bot system could be integrated via quest files. And it does make sense to the small personal server. not just because of its simplicity, but as it stands, the quest interface is the closest thing the server code has to a SDK to expand the system unless you dig into the code itself.

Thanks

I'm wondering though. If we have a player.pl that we can put in a zone or template... why not a bot.pl ?

Hrmmm stuff to think about.

Anyways I found a few more commands I forgot (Invis, see invis and undead invis) and raid commands are not saylinked yet. The bot will list them atm.

I guess what I think would be the most useful part of this script is if you added logic so the bot offers only the commands it is capable of performing. So an enchanter bot won't bother offering you help with doing a #bot cure but it would offer up #bot ai mez. That would cut down on the volume of the text the bots spit out and keep the info relevant.

[WildcardX]

One of the weaknesses of the bot subsystem is the large volume of #bot commands that exist. You have to get to know them and making buttons is a must as it does help. Its a necessary evil atm, but I also don't see any reason why that existing interface couldn't be supplemented with something like your script, especially if this script can make that "interface" even more user frieldnly to use. Especially if you do it a way that doesnt destroy the game experience. What I mean by that is when I was in college I had to take a Theater productions class and one important concept I learned in that class was "suspension of disbelief". So if you can make this script so your having a "in game" conversation with your bot to give commands that are relevant to what the bot can actually do and its not overly verbose so using the #bot commands would just be easier, then I think the script has value. I hope I am making sense to you!

[WildcardX]

Sorry.. my 3rd post in less than 15 minutes...

Anyway, another thought I just had as an application for something like your script is perhaps for an EQEmu implementation of what live now calls "henchmen" (which I still think was Sony trolling our boards and stealing the idea of bots from us since we had them before Sony!). I don't know much about live's henchmen implementation but I assume its a watered down version of bots. Perhaps something like your script could be applied to implementing henchmen by it wrapping calls to the bots subsystem?

I wish I had some talent in programing but I'm still just learning how to crawl in the scripting system EQEmu has. I'm learning as I go but that is why its so much fun

Anyways, here is the next revision of my Bot Help Quest Script. Added the logic you suggested to the script so it would spit out the class commands based on the bots class. Raid commands are only listed (on my to do list):

#Bot Event Script
#Just Hail and click!
#Most of the bot commands are listed here if you see one missing 
#click the #bot help to find the missing command.

I left in the old All Class listing but placed it in a link in the Other section just in case I missed something and added a few more class bot commands I was missing (indoor sow for druids). Anyone see any #bot class commands I'm missing please let me know.

Think it would be feasible to add in a bot.pl function like we do for players so a server dev could just place this script in the templates folder so all bots would pull from a script like this?

[Krugus]

Updated the script yet again.

I got to thinking about bot spam. Got rid of quest::say and put in $client->Message and added color!

#Bot Event Script
#Just Hail and click!
#Most of the bot commands are listed here if you see one missing 
#click the #bot help to find the missing command.

I honestly haven't used bots yet, but what if we incorporate the saylinks into the #bot command directly? That way, if you target a specific bot, if can be specific, and if not, it can be general.
