Release Epic Laziness v0.4.25

I would like to point out to everyone that I have spent more than a little time insuring that Epic Laziness has robust logging functions that I can use for debugging issues and solving any bugs. Not providing this logging information when you are reporting a bug shits all over the work I have done in providing these logging functions, and requires me to do more work to try and troubleshoot an issue.

Thus, moving forward, if you do not provide the relevant logs, or a dang good reason for doing so, I will not be looking into the bug you reported.

The extra time i spend tracking things down due to the lack of logs provided cuts into time I can be using to add functionality, add classes, or just relax and actually play games.

Again, no logs, no support.

As a programmer myself, I heartily endorse this position. You have to help the programmer help you. I do not know how many times at my day job, I have to spend hours going back and forth on a ticket because the person did not include enough information to be able to address the issue.
 
Bard 1.5 pre-quest Vas Thorel

have completed all steps to get to Vas Thorel, I hail him and do not get the proper response and never get the spawns to farm heads. Vas Thorel says, "You have done well Human, on behalf of the kin we thank you." I then travel to the spawn location but just stand and play songs.

restarted it 3 times with same result. I cannot get past this turn in with Vas Thorel to finish the 1.5 pre-quest

Bard 1.5 pre-quest
Only issue I had was a loop /relocate greatdivide and /relocate poknowledge
One I converted the zueris slide to great divide and clicked it, the other I used a bulwark of many portals to pok. All went well after those.

What does Vas Thorel consider to you? Do you still have any of the items from previous steps in your inventory? (Like the Sealed Letter).

What was happening when it tried to relocate to those two places? Do you happen to have logs of when it happened?
 
Ranger 1.5 pre epic quest. Step 36 run to N Karana. He runs until literally one step from the border then stops and stands there.
 
This is a mq2nav thing, unfortunately sometimes it comes up a little short when moving to a zone line.
 
I think I miss spoke. Probably easy find then. It doesnt happen often but once in awhile it comes up just a hair short on zone transitions.

Same with a cleric running on a fresh install.

Log file shows just a warning about still being in zone and trying again. DoCommand - Couldn't parse '/relocate nek'

Also, Cleric Pre 1.5 step 15 check for head of high priestess shima, found her and killed her but did not loot the head. Looted the head manually and it picked up and kept going. And step 35 head of high priest maltan, did not manually loot. (maybe im missing a plugin for looting?)

In your file travel.Lua
Some of these shortnames like nek, nro, pok, (do these reference some type of travel?) or aliases? This is only issue I see with my issue of traveling.

UPDATE: My issue was not having mq2relocate loaded, maybe put something in the script to load that. Thanks.

Epic: Rogue Pre-1.5.

Toon: Lvl 109 Half-Elf Rogue in (mostly) lvl 100 Heroic gear. CWTN plugin for ROG.

Issue: Consistently starting to travel to the next location immediately after using "Philter of Major Translocation" - hence interrupting the Gate (back to PoK in this case). After the Gate potion cast was interrupted, the ROG proceeded to run to the next location in the script and continue as expected.

Epic Laziness Configuration:
[Settings][General Settings]
CHECKED - Allow use of gate potions
CHECKED - Allow use of Origin

For travel clickies, ROG has 'Brick of Knowledge', 'Mark of Brell', and 'Sceptre of Draconic Calling' stored in Key Rings / Teleportation slots. "Drunkard's Stein" is in a bag in the regular inventory.

From looking at the EL output, it seems like a timing / delay issue: Cast Gate potion, but then immediatly move to the next step without waiting for the Gate potion to complete.

Not a super high priority, as there are workarounds. I did Pause at one time and used the Gate potion manually to get back to PoK. When I then un-paused, the EL script kept right on moving to the next stage.

I do not have any logs of this (saw that post too late), but the issue (moving after Gate potion cast) happened at least 3-4 times during the complete run.
 
Epic: Rogue 1.5

Toon: Lvl 116 Half-Elf Rogue in 110/115 gear. CWTN plugin for ROG

Issue: When attempting to Gate using Gate potion, Rog moves (?) before potion cast can complete and interrups the cast.

Epic.Laziness starts to use (travel.Lua::find_best_path(): ..) Selected path gate followed by (travel.Lua::gate_group():..) Gating to poknowledge.
Next is [MQ2][Relocate]:: Using item: Philter of Major Translocation.
Before Gate potion can complete, the Rogue moves, and the potion/spell is interrupted. After this, the Rogue starts running -- using the current path to Firiona in this case.

Below are screen shots of log/chat output:

Here is a screen capture of <Gate> spell being interrupted:

1722483269067.png

FWIW, this also happens in the Rog 1.5 pre-quest -- see my earlier post about a very similar / probably the same issue.

EDIT: needed to mask out some info ...

I will look into why its moving while casting. thanks for including logs.
 
I tried using this for the first time today on my SK, Shaman, and Bard. I tried it with autosize on, as normal, and with it disabled (rebooted the client after disabling). I tried it after setting all sizes to a '3' and force saving autosize. Every time I get the same error message and near instant crash of the Lua. All characters were sitting in Guild Lobby at the time. A guildmate tried the Lua and got the same exact string of errors.

that's an older version. the current init.lua only has 820 lines. at least on the git repo.

I think @Lisie forgot the latest push?
Updating via the RedGuides launcher certainly doesn't help. I rebooted my entire computer, updated MQ, refreshed the LUAs, nothing left to update, and I'm getting the same errors.
 
Help Leslie, I had been running shaman epic 1.0 for the last week and kept getting stuck on Icon turn in to Dirn I petition EQ but no results

Monk just did 1.5 pre quest pretty much flawlessly just had to bail him out a few times in the pit on the first floor of tofs a few times. Any plans for 1.5 and 2.0?
 
Rogue Epic 1.5 -- but probably not isolated to that quest/task

Issue: On a (fairly) clean install of EQ/RedGuides/CWTN ROG plugin, Epic Laziness appears to fail/not perform actions because needed PlugIns are not loaded.

1. Starting up on this install (new laptop - preparing for weekend trip ;-) - 'MQ2AutoSize' was NOT loaded, so I got the following:
1722955521255.png

Note that when I did enable MQ2AutoSize, I could restart EL and continue as expected.

2. Further in the task, I got the following -- where MQ2Relocate was not loaded:

1722955878828.png

After I loaded MQ2Relocate, I could successfully use the '/relocate gate' command and continue:
1722956143361.png

---

I suspect these issues are not specific to the Rogue Epic, but I have not attempted to run EL on other classes -- although that is on the "stuff-to-do" list.

Thank You for the work you are doing on this -- I have some experience in Software Development, so I know a bit about what it takes...
