Problem - MQ2AdvPath reverse broken after 20150722 patch

[playj]

Interesting bug with MQ2AdvPath using Vanilla compile 20150722

As soon as you issue /play mypath reverse command
all the following paths will play as reverse even though you do not enter reverse modifier for them.

Example:
you have just loaded MQ2Advpath.
you have a saved mypath ABCD for going from A to D,

/play mypath

works at first as expected ABCD,
when you

/play mypath reverse

it works as expected too going DCBA,
but when you

/play mypath

again it goes DCBA.
Even worse it uses the "silent" reverse for all other paths you attempt to /play

Two workarounds:
Unload and load MQ2AdvPath before each /play this is pretty silly

Second:
do not use reverse argument, this requires to make two paths AB and BA

Mq2Adtpath has been updated. I will talk to the devs about the bug.

Two more things I noticed that are not bugs but maybe working as intended.

MQ2AdvPath now attempts to click any door that you run past, hopefully this can be changed in an .ini somewhere .

Finally, my Gnome now has problems running upstairs , even tiny stairs. I am sure halfings have the same problem, while tall races are fine.

Try

/play pathname Normal Smart Fast Eval
/play pathname Reverse Smart Fast Eval

WTF? Seriously? might as well be.

/play pathname Reverse Smart Fast Eval Sendme Back Where's The Mob Help I am Dying Fuck Who Wrote this Path

 

[playj]

That's hilarious

I am going to have to try those args out ...

They work i just ran

/play undead1 Normal Smart Fast Eval
and
/play undead1 reverse Smart Fast Eval

from my tempest macro and it worked.


/play undead1 Normal
and
/play undead1 reverse

work also. It seems you need to tell it what way to run it if you change it. ( it keeps the change so if you go reverse it will always go reverse unless you tell it otherwise)

Thanks William and Maskoi!

I do wonder where is the changelog for these changes, I couldn't find one in MQ2 VIP forums under MQ2AdvPath.

And why mess with sane defaults?

EDIT: and my poor gnome still doesn't know how to jump over small obstacles..

There new version has issues and its a special edition. it has been documented yet. Here is teh old normal version until I this shit fixed.

My guess is part of the improvements to Eqmule had required these changes being made.

 

[Maskoi]

It actually its a new version that was sponsored by william12 that he donated to Redguides as part of macro kickstarter post. It just needs some tweaking.
