It seems to get stuck going form EW2 to GD2. It will gate back to the bind and just stands there, never actually going to GD2.

What class? You could try to replace these two sections and see what happens. I'm guessing your not a druid or wizard and that the scripts stops after it says
Enter EW2
Exit EW2
Enter GD2

Code: 
local function EW2()
    print('Enter EW2')
    if ((MinLevel <= 115) and (MaxLevel >= 111)) == true then
        guildhall('eastwastestwo')
        Trav('eastwastestwo')
        --Going back to Guild Lobby for next Zone--
        if (mq.TLO.Me.Class.ShortName() ~= 'DRU') then
        Home()
        end
    end
    print('Exit EW2')
end

local function GD2()
    print('Enter GD2')
   
    if (((MinLevel <= 115) and (MaxLevel >= 111) == true) and mq.TLO.Me.Class.ShortName() == 'DRU') or (((MinLevel <= 115) and (MaxLevel >= 111) == true) and mq.TLO.Me.Class.ShortName() == 'WIZ') then
        CastInvis()
        if mq.TLO.Me.Zone.ShortName() ~= 'eastwastestwo' then
            guildhall('eastwastestwo')
        end
        mq.delay(1000)
        while not Am_I_Invis('normal')() do
            Write.Info("\arYou're stuck in a loop because you're not invis!")
            CastInvis()
        end
        mq.cmd('/travelto greatdividetwo')
        while mq.TLO.Navigation.Active() do
            mq.delay(50)
        end
        Trav('greatdividetwo')
        Home()
    end
    print('Exit GD2')
end
 
Thanks for all your work on this! It appears selecting the zone specific options does not currently work. The settings in the attached screenshot have the toon go to Overthere first, even though I do not have it selected. It seems to only honor the level slider. I have also used /sc 106-110 without Overthere selected and it still goes to Overthere. In this instance I would like to buy the 106-110, but only from Stratos, since I already have Overthere spells.

A related/unrelated reason this is a problem is that after Overthere spells bought, it tries to take me through Howling Stones and back to regular Overthere to get back to PoK and then on to Stratos, but it gets stuck in Howling Stones due to no valid path. In this instance its a ranger.

Also the ranger has:

but scriber does not use it.

Thank you!

Thank you for your effort in putting this together -- ran it for the first time today on a level 97 Mage, and discovered a few non-critical issues.

* After completing running through and catching up on level 1 through 97 spells, I was still missing 3 MAG spells:
-- lvl 85/90/95 Monster Summoning (not that I would use them, but ...)
-- turns out these are sold by <Janeil Mon'estra> in Lceanium -- a zone and vendor my Mage did not visit due to being below level 101, I believe.

* When I checked, this vendor also sells a few more spells that are below level 101, but higher than level 90 PoK spells:
-- WIZARD port spells (lvl 98/99)
-- DRUID port spells (lvl 98/99)
-- Not sure if there is code to pick this up, but I thought I'd mention it...

* Interestingly, she also sells the SHM/BST level 74 Spirit of Tala'Tak, and several lower-level BARD songs. Given that these are below level 90, I would think they are available from the PoK vendors, but I have not checked this.

Again, thank you for sharing this resource!

is there any intent to fix the zone specific option? Seems it used to work but not anymore.
 
Suggestion:
Input a command i can send from my driver for my whole group to get all spells up to their level.
So example:
finish with an evening of play, all group members got some levels, not all got the same amount of levels, so there is a difference between toons.
Come back to pok, and want to catch up spells from the levels we just got.
could issue the /scriber 1 X, but then toons that ARENT level X yet will buy spells they arent ready for.
Is there a command to just send them to get spells up to their level?
So i can do a /bcga //scriber [get spells up to your level]
Awesome job so far on this!

Seems scriber isnt working like it used to. I continually stopping after doing 1 zone at times. Just trying doing my 111 - 115 spells. It got the ones out of Eastern Wastes and then ported back to my bind in the Guild hall and stopped. Same thing happens with 96 - 100 spells does Shards Landing then stops after that.

Also there it does not recognize just selecting an individual zone anymore. Regardless of selection it starts at the first zone in the list for the level range.
 
Just ran through Scriber on a lvl 89 Bard that I had not played much -- so I knew I was missing spells/songs (/outputfile missingspells)

Scriber ended up buying lvl 81 through 85 (I think) songs, although the bard already has the Rk. II of these songs. Is the check for higher rank (i.e. Rk. II) songs maybe not working at those levels?

Appreciate the work -- very useful when trying to catch up on toons I have not played for a while.
 
I have recently run a group of lower guys to get their 20-30 spells in PoK..it buys most, but stops continually for all classes, empty bags, plenty of plat. Never finishes getting all the spells, happened all the way from level 1 up to 40 so far.. I can restart it easy enough and it will eventually buy the rest. but odd it stops. on Live server. I do enjoy this Lua a lot, thank you.
 
Such a brilliant lil program that makes a very tedious task so simple but alas lately has had some things broken, for instance have to click on the lvl slider to get things done
If you attempt to manually zone to sirens and then start it to goto western wastes for some reason it auto zones you to Kael, no idea why,every single time it does this,no matter the toon you try it on.
i did find the only way to navigate through sirens was to use a clicky to make myself smaller and only then it used to navigate the water areas in sirens successfully.
Would also be nice if some of the other clickys to port back are used or can be manually added by the user.
Last toon i tried it on was a mage

I'll take a look at it. I may message for more info
 
It seems I'm not getting the notifications for all the comments. I'll read through them as soon as I get a chance and see what's going on.

I put in a PR with a potential fix for the checkboxes not being honored.

you can test it by replacing the init.Lua in the scriber folder with this one.

I'm trying but life has me by the balls at the moment. I haven't been able to really touch my computer in almost 3 months.
 
So just fyi for those having issues, last I tested scriber, my issue stemmed from mq recognizing a new zone before you actually zone in. With that, the command (for whatever was next) was sent before you actually zoned in and failed to give the command for eq to move your character. I have a fix incoming for it. Please be patient

Any ETA on update?
 
Great utility

Is there a / command to scribe spells in inventory ? may have missed it in the chats but would be V useful

Thank you in advance

I'm not sure if I used a / command for inventory. I'll try to check tomorrow. If not, I'll add one.
 
you can add this around line 1699

[CODE title="/scriber scribe"]
if cmd == 'scribe' then
scribe_inv = true
scribe_switch = false
end[/CODE]

will add command /scriber scribe which will just scribe any spells in inventory for you.
 
Is there any updates to this damn brilliant utility?Or any planned in the forseeable future?Its one that i always use when power levelling and would love to see it brought back to lift and current.

apparently I let my sub lapse on rg so I've gotten no notifications on this whatsoever. what are you wanting to see. is it not working anymore? I've not played EQ in about 1.5 years but do plan on updating it.
 
I'm having an issue getting the Lua to update, you can either download the files from the git v4.0.1a, or add a comma if you have vs code in the merchants.Lua at the following location
1733410091866.png
I'm off to work and will try to fix this again later
