Bug Fixes Minor Enhancements Fixed logic to resolve problem with some buffs not listed after "list" command. To shorten "list" message, removed .StacksTarget checking, original code remains but commented out. Deprecated the ListAll variable. Updated sample .ini to include latest buffs along...

I once left a VPN running on a particular machine and spent an hour trying to figure out why Dannet was not working before I remembered I had a VPN running.

Bug Fixes and Enhancements Added log message when no buffs stick. Fixed error for listing a buff with zero quantity. Reworked buff stick checking. Fixed bug when determining trade access (PC/Guild access verification). Removed event flushing.

Wow hi Maskoi, really long time since I saw you, great to see you again. Anyway, in game error on the Shaman is "Your Talisman of the Enduring spell did not take hold. (Blocked by Talisman of the Tenacious.)". So I get it that MQ2Cast is reading the in game Spell error, that part makes sense...

I’m testing MQ2Cast (MQNext version from RG). When I cast a shaman buff Talisman of the Enduring, it returns CAST_TAKEHOLD, which is warning the spell didn’t take hold, but it is taking hold (i.e., it's not blocked). I’ve come across multiple buffs across multiple classes that return the same...

I used the old version of this plugin for many years, but now that I'm changing to MQNext, I've started to use this version of MQ2Rez. Most plugins use a single INI for their settings, which is usually organized into sections. The only thing I didn't like about this version is that it creates...

Bug Fixes and Enhancements Added enhanced Allow/Deny logic to control who can access your Buff Bot. Deny takes precedence over Allow and the PC List takes precedence over the Guild List. This approach follows a security access methodology conceptually similar to file/folders security in an...

Bug Fixes and Enhancements Added variables CastMaxAttempts, CastGiveUpTime, AutoInventoryMaxAttempts, ListCommandsPerChatLine to [General] section in the INI. Variable CastMaxAttempts = number of attempts to cast a spell before giving up. Variable CastGiveUpTime = time (seconds) allocated to...

Bug Fixes and Minor Improvements Improved Reagent checking. Renamed INI [General] variable Reagents to ReagentDataset.

Version 1.5 includes additional features and a cleanup of the Cast subroutine. Added ability for a BuffBot to require grouping before casting a certain spell. This is useful for a Necromancer’s summon corpse ability. A new bool variable called SpellMustGroup# was added to the group of...

Version 1.4 includes some minor logic changes and the elimination of having to use Spell ID. A slight delay was added to the main loop. An /autoinventory routine was added to the main loop to keep items off the Buff Bot's cursor. Moved the AcceptedItems variable in the INI from the Class...

Version 1.3 includes a number of logic changes, bug fixes and other changes that will impact your current INI file. The download includes an updated sample INI file, so be careful not to overwrite your current INI until you have incorporated any of your settings into the new INI format. I...

Version 1.2 includes includes no changes to the macro, but it does include a more generic [General] section of the sample INI file. So you will need to set the [General] settings to suite your needs.

To prevent confusion or conflicts with other macros, the three files associated with this version of Buff Bot have been renamed to BuffBot2.mac, BuffBot2.ini, and MQ2Cast2.inc. This should prevent conflicts when you unpack/install these files in your macros folder.

A macro for running an autonomous buffing character. Its primary function is to manage a player character that waits to cast certain spells (buffs, ports, corpse summon, resurrection, and item creation) when commanded (/tell) from within the game. The macro will warn the requesting party if a...
