Problem - Looking for a way to autouse lockpicking tool

[Redfrog]

Running around and having many stuck doors and wondering if we have a good lockpick tool script or tool that will recognize a locked door and auto open it (with a set of lockpicks on character of course). Thanks. I saw MQ2Rogue has that feature, but I can't get it right now.

Seems like a good job for LEM

Trying to do this month's collection set in Karnor's Castle with a bard who had lockpick tools. I couldn't figure out how to automate this. Was using CTWN's awesome ground spawn plugin but the 2 locked doors kept kicking my ass.

Would need to event check for message "it's locked and you're not holding the key", then pick up the lockpick tool of your choice so it's on your cursor, then target the nearest door and click the door while holding the lockpick device.

A bit beyond my scripting capabilities for now.

Edit: Found a method that works for me... inserted the following code in the bard's mq2events_character.ini file:

[CODE title="Unlock door"]
[LockedDoor]
trigger=#*# and you're not holding the key#*#
command=/multiline ; /echo Unlocking the door ; /timed 1 /itemnotify "Cheirometric Lockpick Device" leftmouseup ; /timed 3 /doortarget ; /timed 5 /click left door ; /timed 7 /autoinv ; /timed 9 /autoinv
[/CODE]

Edited again to correct my code. The /timed statements needed to be incorporated inside the semicolon delimiters. Works much smoother now!

Both mq2rogue and unreleased Brad automatically pick locks

If your looking for a snip of how its can be done (not saying its right, im slow), look at lerogue or EL, though EL might be use case only.

I just may love Brad.

EverQuest needs to add a rouge/bard quest where there is a reward augment that has the effect among others of lockpicking that you add to you gloves so if you are a lockpicking class and gave the augment on your gloves any door you click on will open as if you had a lockpick in your hands or maybe make a high level tinker be able to make the augment to sell from rare drop items like Crystallized Restless Ore which is no drop that the tinker has to farm and it makes a wrapped item that once unwrapped is no drop.

Converted to LEM - You'll need to change /mqp on/off to pause your automation, if it's not a macro, and change mechanized lockpicks to whatever you are using. Tested in Karnor's with Groundgrab.mac

let me be real clear here - you're doing a "/whatever pause on" like a /rog pause on

mq2rogue already handles using a lockpick, and we even check for all the various lockpicks and prioritize which one is the best





obviously this doesn't cover non-mq2rogue using rogues --- but you're using the class shortname in the above example.

Am I mistaken in that that part is commented out in the script example?

It is obviously, but it is still there, would be better (and less confusing for folks) if it wasn't.

People often forget that the avg joe doesn't know anything about code, but can copy paste and even modify/edit enough to get in trouble.

The instructions say modify it for your automation, which again, to the avg joe looks a lot like "I should uncomment this to modify it for my automation".
