• Hail, we're RedGuides. We want you to play six (yes, 6!) EverQuest characters at once. We have scripts and a friendly community to help, please join our playstyle and say hello! 👋
  • We've added LLM sections to our Terms & Rules and Resource Rules, for everyone's sanity & in-game safety.
    Read more
    a. Do not replace your voice with an LLM. This goes for your posts and your scripts. Drafting and editing with a tool is fine, but don't take you out of what you share.
    b. Do not replace your EQ character's voice with an LLM. We don't want scripts that speak over /ooc, /shout or other public channels. This has been an unwritten rule that's kept casino scripts off the site for decades, but we're now compelled to make it clear: keep automated communication private.

    Why Does RG Review Scripts?
    Nearly every LLM-written Lua script we see is making your character do impossible things, and rarely in a way that's beneficial to you. We've seen heavy server hammering, /target over impossible distances when /nav spawn would passively accomplish the same thing, a spawn search that fires 20+ times per second, and other pointless actions that are likely annoying GMs.

    You are welcome to use LLMs as a tool to structure, draft, and edit your work, but please read critically before hitting /lua run
Going Postal

Utility Going Postal 2020-05-28-3

Q: What about corpses? Won't they be piling up?
A: No worries there, young padawan. Level 1 characters won't leave corpses. (And you don't want to run this with a high-level character anways.)

Q: Again: What about corpses? Won't they be piling up? When I am of higher level - you know: postal service is good for experience, too!
A: This is something the mac doesn't cover yet. Just loot your stinky bodies and /decay them. (Or wait until the mac does that for you.)
A: Well - once you start producing corpses, the mac will be taking proper care of them.

Q: What if I die - I mean - unplanned?
A: Then the letter you were carrying will be gone. They are temporary and even vanish upon death. But don't fret! You will end up in your bind zone right again and the macro should notice you lost your letter and make you start over again. (While this usually just takes a couple of seconds it also can take up to about 2 minutes if shit really hits the fan ...)

Q: But I died in Qeynos Hills due to mean mobs being there?
A: Same applies as before: The mac should pretty much pick up where you left of (well - if you never had the letter that is cough)

Q: Are there zones where the mac won't be able to pick up again?
A: Yes. Qeynos North, Erud's Crossing, North Qeynos. You will just have to run to any of the adjacient zones and restart from there.

Q: Now - we know those damn Greenbloods in Butcherblock are faster than a young dorf. What if they get me?
A: Well - tough luck. You will die - most likely. But don't fret! The Macro will try to pick you up where you are. If things go really wrong this will take up to almost 2 minutes (although usually it is just seconds) before you find yourself running again.

Q: I am a Bard and level 5 - why can't I use Selo's?
A: Buy it, mem it, forget it. And while you are at it: Get your Bard a nice drum, too.
