Nightmare327 submitted a new resource:

TOB Leviathan mission automation - Automates most of the Leviathan Mission in Chanbers of Pouissance

The script will do zone checks, then run the mission. You can start in the mission, or in Chambers, and it will request the mission and zone in.

It curently uses CWTN automation, though as there is more interest, I could probably add in some of the others. It will also make sure all of your toons are full mana, health, and endurance before starting (I hit the start mission button too many times before everyone was ready).

Thanks to @Darkwynd3 for the original scripts...

@Nightmare327 you have some bad copy/paste

local config_file = string.format('mission_tobhazuri_%s.ini', mq.TLO.Me.CleanName())

you really need to use the "nosave" option if you're going to fuck with people's settings
 
The amount of questions I'm left after reading

Code:
local function DoPrep()
    mq.delay(2000)
    mq.cmd('/cwtn mode 2')
    mq.cmdf('/%s mode 0', my_class)
    mq.cmdf('/%s mode 7', my_class)
    mq.cmdf('/%s pause off', my_class)
    mq.cmdf('/%s resetcamp', my_class)
    mq.cmd('/dgga /makemevis')
   
    mq.cmd('/cwtna CheckPriorityTarget off nosave')
    mq.cmd('/cwtna UseAOE Off')
    mq.cmd('/cwtna BYOS Off')
    mq.cmd('/cwtna BurnAllNamed off nosave')
    mq.cmd('/cwtna burnalways off nosave')
    mq.cmd('/cwtna userez on nosave')
    mq.cmd('/cwtna userezcall on nosave')
    mq.cmd('/cwtna pause off')
    mq.cmd('/war mode manual')
    mq.cmd('/dgza /makemevisible')
    mq.cmd('/dgga /plugin autoloot unload')
    mq.cmd('/dgga /lootly on')
    mq.cmd('/dgga /makemevisible')
end

And then subsequently you then further adjust the mode more after you call it.

You are assuming the driver toon is running a warrior?
Code:
mq.cmd('/war mode manual')

All the Todo, are those old or are you needing some redcent?

The autoloot plugin loading then subsequent looty enablement, what's that going to do to someone who doesn't have lootly configured? You are making huge assumptions in these scripts and looks like you are sharing for redcent a personal tool you use instead of being community/generically ready for public consumption.
 
the thing with making resources - which we've discussed before iirc.


resources that you submit for other people to use and to support shouldn't a: create other authors support burden (fucking up someone's settings will do that), it shouldn't b: require "how you play"

forcing various looting without knowing that's how they loot (autoloot / lootly etc) really can cause huge problems.

imagine if they had xyz_loot setup to loot and distrubute loot how they wanted, they finally got the drop, but because the script decided to use something they dont, now that item goes to some other toon. that is a really unpleasant experience.
 
WooHoo!

Let me fix those. It kind of expanded over time, and I do need to clean all of that up. Let me get that done. I think I got in too much of a hurry on that script to finally get it off my todo list. Some of the todo's in the list are old, so I do need to clean those up.

The lootly on that script is mainly to handle looting one of the eyes to block the blindness. I wanted to get that as part of the script eventually, but did not do that part yet. Let me address that, probably by removing all of that and just leaving it to the user to handle that mechanic however they want to for now. I also used to run it without even paying attention to that mechanic, and sometimes would wipe if the healer got blinded.

May I recommend that you take these down, polish them, ask for review, include people to test, prior to re-publishing?

Again, I'll gladly donate some redcent if you are hurting for redcent.

The amount of frustration, impact, support burden these may cause is not worth it.

The only option I can see on the Resource page is to Delete the resource. Is there somethign I am not seeing? I am willing to do this, or just to delete the resource if that is the easiest method.

Its not a redcent grab, I don't really care about that that much. I posted the resources because people had asked me to, but I can certainly see where you are coming from.
 
That is something Sic can help with. I'm willing and able to help review, test, advise where possible.
