• 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.

    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

Question - Detecting disconnects/auto reconnect

Is there a plugin that will detect server disconnects and possibly auto-reconnect? I get periodic disconnects and haven't yet figured out the cause. In the meantime I'd like to stay online as much as possible, so auto-reconnecting would be super.

My current plan is to use EQBC disconnection announcements to trigger something, but I haven't done much research on this yet.

I think qarapace means if he disconnects from game - like a CTD - and another toon saw the toon disconnected from eqbc server - if there's a way he could auto relaunch that toon

That's it exactly. When my connection drops, I lose all connectivity, so I do see the EQBC disconnect. I'd like to detect that in some way, and kill/relaunch all eq processes (usually just one, say a trader or a toon in a PL camp or something). I was hoping there might be an MQ2 hook for disconnecting/deinitializing so I could write a plugin for this, but thought I'd check here with the MQ2 gods first.
