Problem - Pet attack reliant on DPS section

[draaco2]

I would recommend adding a variable to the [Pet] section....something like PetAttack = [0/1]|[% to send pet]

As a low level BL, I didn't cast spells on the mobs, just buffs and it took a bit to figure out what I needed to change to get my pet to start attacking. Recommend moving this dependency from the [DPS] section to [Pet] section, and adding a variable for when to sent pet in to attack.

Want to say, I'm not trying to nitpick. Kissassist is AMAZING and has changed my life.

There is the petasssit role where the toon will just cast spells and send in the pet but combat or dps is required to send in the pet. If the pet does most teh damage you will get little or no XP.

What is your petcombat variable set to in pet section of config? Not home today, so can't review code. But if I remember right, any attacking pet class should have a config variable in pet section to specificly enable petcombat.

I agree that this should be the absolute guideline if a pet attacks during combat, and should NOT be dependant in any way of dpson.

Let me talk to Maskoi, then we will see if he wants me changing the dependency for dpson.

Maybe try changing

PetCombatOn=outer

to

PetCombatOn=1

not sure if its a copy/paste issue or if the macro is generating the

PetCombatOn=outer

 

[TreeHuginDruid]

That is the exact issue i wanted the user to check on right there......

PetCombatOn=outer is invalid...... its 1 for ON 0 for OFF

PetCombatOn=1 or PetCombatOn=0

Try this.. it should resolve the issue. Report back so i can close the ticket upon confirmation please.

If you ever have doubt or question a config's value.. or need to know permisable config values.... RTFM

For Pete's sake.... please post your config using CODE tags .. otherwise its just a mess of an eyesore lol..... converting it for you.

PetCombatOn=1 or PetCombatOn=0

I noticed that PetCombat=outer is the default when setting up a new character, it should probably be =0

 

[Maskoi]

Will check that out when i get gome.

yes... when creating a ini file for the first time on a toon... some of the loadini calls are creating entries without values and just creating value of data scope type (local/outer.. etc).

Line for petcombat:

/call LoadIni Pet PetCombatOn int outer 1

should make the ini entry value 1.. and not OUTER as the data type scope suggests.

 

[TreeHuginDruid]

The issue with initial ini entry creation for PetCombatOn has been corrected in production code.

Since this problem was in regard to functionality not working because PetCombatOn value was not configured correctly due to coding issue for its initial creation... this ticke can be closed now.
