Question - Kissassist Corpse Dragging

[geEQ]

I have been experimenting with nearly unattended hunting using Kissassist. Sometimes my puller gets walloped rather far from my group's camp. It may take me a long time to notice if I am working on something else. I thought I might be able to add some commands to the ImDead section of Kissassist, but I am not really sure it would work. I would rather not keep dying in order to test it out, so I thought someone might be able to look at the code to make some suggestions. /alt activate 531 is cloak of shadows.

/bct TANK //docommand /alt activate 531
/bct TANK //docommand /endmacro
/bct TANK //docommand /tar PULLER
/bct TANK //docommand /moveto id ${Target.ID}
/bct TANK //docommand /delay 50 ${MoveTo.Stopped}
/bct TANK //docommand /corpsedrag
/bct TANK //docommand /tar CLERIC
/bct TANK //docommand /moveto id ${Target.ID}
/bct TANK //docommand /delay 50 ${MoveTo.Stopped}
/bct TANK //docommand /tar TANK
/bct TANK //docommand /mac kissassist tank
/mem Boxes-buffs
/cast 5 
/cast 8 
/cast 9 
/cast 10
/cast 12
/tar TANK
/mac kissassist puller

Of course if there are better solutions, I am all ears.

I second this.. majorly second .. WOuld love to see something like this work. have the Tank Invis.. run out /corpsedrag and return to camp for healer to rez.

I have had more than once my puller die when pulling due to getting stuck on something ( its a rarity however it does happen)

- - - Updated - - -

could use mq2navigation and set your waypoint you want the tank to stand so returns right to that exact spot when done

/nav waypoint namehere.. so regardless of macros always returns to same spot you set in that zone.

So I was trying to figure out how I could do this easily and it struck me that my SK has a corpse summoning AA. I thought the following might work as a /downshit.

downshit1=/if (${SpawnCount[${Group.Puller} corpse]} && ${Me.XTarget} < 1) /multiline ; /timed 5 ; /squelch /tar ${Group.Puller} corpse ; /timed 5 ; /alt act ${Me.AltAbility[Summon Remains].ID}

Anyone see any mistakes?

 

[GPS_Soldier]

I am typing this on my phone so I cannot see the whole downshift. I believe though, that in order to use the SK AA, the toon you want to summon has to be in zone. I will try this though as my bard like to die a lot lately.

Again, something i can check out as well. I have been doing nothing but HA and my bard puller sometimes lags and gets smoked on a pull. One thing i would have to do is put my merc healer on passive at it belongs to my SK who is tanking. I woulded want my bard to get into a death loop from a rez to close to where he died.

 

[geEQ]

So it looks like the puller has to campfire back to the group and then the SK can summon the corpse by targeting the living character rather than the corpse. The updated downshit looks like:

downshit1=/if (${SpawnCount[${Group.Puller} corpse]} && ${Me.XTarget} < 1) /multiline ; /timed 5 ; /squelch /tar ${Group.Puller} ; /timed 5 ; /alt act ${Me.AltAbility[Summon Remains].ID}

Silly question, can I just copy/paste this into my SK's Melee INI file, not the KA ini? Does it go in a special section?

My bard is dying a lot, then she campfires back in and stands around doing nothing because she didn't get the rez. No rez due to the corpse being too far away obviously. She's lost a LOT of xp lately since I didn't notice it. :\

 

[Dutch_SK]

I always paste them at the bottom.

If the SK is also the puller does this work?

 

[eqgeek]

At the bottom of Kissassist_toon.ini (KA ini) or at the bottom of server_toon.ini (the melee ini)?

Also, I would guess this would work as long as he is puller and you have a campfire down. When he clicks back to the zone where the body is, he should summon it...

 

[Dutch_SK]

The melee ini mate =)

 

[eqgeek]

Thanks. I wanted to be sure... Especially since it didn't work... I will try it again when I can more closely monitor it.

 

[geEQ]

I think it WILL work for the SK puller as long as the SK campfires back first. You may have to add something about not being in hover mode and checking that campfire is in same zone that sk is in.

And remember you have to turn on the downshit a bit earlier with /downshit1=1 or what ever the number /downshit#=1.

My current problem is my campfire dropper is not dropping a fire properly in a deadhills instance. There seems to be a fire somewhere in a zone called deadhills, but it is not near my group. It may be in the non instanced zone, or some other zone instance.

There is a campfire in the mission Disrupting the Rituals. Not sure if that's the one causing you a problem.

 

[Dutch_SK]

What was the fix if your toon keeps destroying and putting new campfires on the ground over and over again? I know someone mentioned this somewhere, but I cant find it :S

I put it down, then moved a little ways away from it and it stopped doing it. Also kinda good so you don't pop right on top of any mobs that are camping the spot where you died.

 

[Dutch_SK]

Manually it is :S

 

[Crystane]

Hmmm,

moved away and it stopped redoing campfire? sounds to me like a distancecheck on dropped Campfire equals to 0 cause it is actually zero but macro thinks there is none if dictance is 0. Might have to add a little movement right after campfire drop to prevent the check after to go wrong. I ll look into the code. See what I find.

Crystane.

Edit: Ok found so far,

${Me.Fellowship.Campfire}

returns allways FALSE

- - - Updated - - -

Well,

the complete DATA TYPE [Fellowship] is not working, at least for me.
So any interactions in macros and checks for it will fail at the moment.

Its something to repair for the MQ2 devs.

Crystane.
PS: Now I need to find where to post it to let them know...

 

[Dutch_SK]

Eqmule is reading this forum, you might want to give him a PM.

Okay, it gets a little bit weirder.

So I put out a campfire manually and my bard puller died during a freeze up.

So he zones back to his binding point, then I got a MQ2 message saying there is no campfire up :S

Gladly I was behind the computer when this happend and clicked my insignia, once zoned back the SK summoned his remains properly.

So as long as the campfire isn't fixed that nice holyshit is not gonna work =(

 

[geEQ]

Does anyone have a downshit or some code to lay down a campfire so I can do it as soon as I enter the Into the Hills zone?
I am thinking something like:
/if (${Zone.ShortName.Equal[deadhills_errand]}) then destroy campfire and create new campfire

Any thoughts?

On your toon not running the off site macro, are you using KA? If so then you can start your campfire once in the zone with KA.

 

[geEQ]

Yeah, I have campfireon=1 set in the kissassist .ini file of a character running the macro, but it has not been placing a campfire in the instance.

 

[geEQ]

My campfire setter was constantly setting up and destroying campfires using Kissassist. I am not sure what the problem is there, but rather than using the option in KA, I thought I could just as easily set up a campfire after getting all the toons into the instance. I added the following section to set the campfire altering code from kissassist.mac. I placed it right after the command to clickie buffs.

What zone is it constantly dropping the campfire in? do a

/echo ${Zone.Name} ${Zone.ID}

and post it here please
