Question - Quick CachedBuff question

[joojoobee]

I presume the CachedBuff is only updated on targeting? I've not used it before but wanted to make sure as I have a buff script I want to write and I want to think through the logic.

Correct joojoo. It's updated on targeting. If you check out eqmule's version of his kissassist it has examples of how to use it for buffing.

Haaaaaaaave ya tried DanNet? It does literally this in real time with 100% accuracy and doesn't require targeting at all, all while being inexpensive network traffic.

install dannet
have a list of buffs
cycle the buff lists finding SPAs you want to check for
use dannet to ask your bot if they have that SPA.
cast it on bot or move on to next.
5 boxes, over 70 SPA checks, ~1 second time. 2 if everyone just woke up from an old man nap.

accurate buffing poll to the instant. no dealing with dated, target required buff checking.

Thanks Exspes... Good idea. In this case, though, I am checking the group members for buffs who are ... people, not bot alts.

i would resort them to a buff beg method then. if theres people on the other side of the KB, dont slow your bots down keeping track of their buffs. Just let them ask the bot for what they want.

These are people who are not aware yet they even need the buffs. The idea is to not have the /beg

I have it working now.
