The batch processing seems to be not working after the latest update in Test. All I did was start TCN, set a batch for 1000 Misty Picnics and after a little running get the following:

TCN_Library.Lua:844: attempt to perform arithmetic on a nil value stack traceback:
.... in function 'GrabBankItemID'

I am just making Misty Thicket Picnics and had made about 3k of them prior to the patch and now I get the above error.

thanks for any help.

Test, my old nemesis, we meet again.
 
Just purchased this Lua. If I have an existing heroic character, gnome enchanter, all TS at 150. Do I still need to do the GoD Abysmal Sea tradeskill freebies for the GoD unlocks? Or should I just skip them and get to work on my trophies? Sorry if this has been asked already, thanks for any guidance.

The freebies provide approximately 100+ recipes that count towards the 350 for the Artisan Prize. Also, the GOD allows you to refine materials which is paramount for a lot of recipes to get to 350.
 
The depot return is close to being ready, it is designed to ignore stackable tools, fresh fish, water flask, no drop, no trade, no rent, also not doing pearls, emeralds, peridots, bone chips for mostly obvious reasons. It just keeps going until capacity reaches the index and then it stops, so if you have 10000 diamonds it will keep going, I do need to add in a check or condition or event if you have over 99999 of something, other than that I think we are good.

There is a known UI issue as told, it is based on DPG switching to their new model. The current fix is to drag the bank window out of the way, so the depot window is visible (if it happens). Otherwise, it will just keep trying to drop items into the bank. I am still holding out hope that one day they will add a deposit button for the depot.

Edit: Scratch that, I will just watch for there is no more room message instead of capacity, just need to solve the 99999 concern.. as I have not had it yet.. Does ne1 know off-hand what the message is if it is full and you are at 99999 maybe same msg?

I will also be working on doing lists and compares to be more efficient in the future, I just want to put something out shortly.

I absolutely love this! Being able to generate an artisan list of recipes and then showing me what to farm and where is amazing! TS still takes time, but once you get enough mats, you just hit go and it creates for you. Is there anything else offered to go along with this like: shopping vendors for materials, auto farming, etc.? I am doing this mostly while I work from home, so just seeing any other ways to "automate" while I watch it work. Thanks in advance.

Vendors can be shopped by zone or all at once, or items can be requested via other toons in zone.

Auto-farming, Pocketfarm is out there and I am not ready to re-invent the wheel, I just use that or kissassist to farm in zones, vendors that are "easy" to get to like Thurgadin, Barren Coast, Bazaar, Crescent Reach, WFP, Stratos, PoT, PoK and some others it can go to, ones that require a stone, or proc, or portal, I do not really do. There are some I can add like some magic lamp or something, if there are more of those I can add them in. It would be nice if you could always run invis from the port in to Shard's Landing to the vendor for certain items without mobs seeing you (named).

I love this idea.

Suggestion:
Possibly add Tiny Coffins to the black list deposit items. Honestly, I have been back for over year now and haven't used the spell one time so its not that big of a deal for me on live. TLP? Not sure. Just thought I would throw that out there.

Thank you for the constant updates. It's much appreciated.

Yeah I see that it is used in 1 recipe, I have added it to the "don't do it" list.

Also adding the blind depot dropping, as in, it will cycle through all your items and put what it can, instead of aborting. I will make it more robust in the future, probably.

.. I think the fastest bestest way might be to pick up each bag and remember the order and click it on the depot window and then place them in the exact order they were grabbed.

How do you toggle auto depot off? I have my depots sorted by type, ie smithing, fletching, etc. And it just starting depositing everything it could on the present toon.

Exactly my style: quick, efficient. And deadly ("what do you mean, no DI on MT because all emeralds are in your depot??" "why u starving, I made food for you!" :))

Of course, could then maybe grab configurable stuff from depot and add back to main inventory...

I am gambling on it being a small list, if it becomes more I can add in the choosy functionality.

it can be modified now in the tcn_shoplist.Lua


here:

local various_array = {
13006, 13019, 10024, 13073, 10029, 10028, 9662, 13044, 29751
}

These are all item ID's to not depot

Perfect for the brute approach, I meant the "dump the bags into the depot" variant (which I do by hand, and then suffer because I miss components for important spells all the time :)) - there it cannot be helped, unless you take out the items after dumping is finished. Or did I miss any configuration in EQ?

Do you have specific items?
 
I am concerned when it moves the cursor, I was off screen and it was minimized and it kept moving the cursor when not in game. So the cursor is not controlled in the game window, this would most likely cause an issue if you are running multiple TCN, or trying to do other things on your PC. This only applies to the depot return, which can now be toggled.

And people wonder why I am always bitching about a depot deposit button..

It is...

Prior to seeing that there was an update I ran the Baking Artisan Quest, and noticed it had deposited all TS items to the Depot, again. Previously today, I had unchecked autobank and was operating that way. I figured maybe I hadn't clicked that save button on the settings page. So I unselected it again and saved it this time. Then saw there was an update, downloaded it and ran TCN again, Now whenever I click "Global Craft Settings" I get an instant crash, and I try to run the quest, without going into settings, it completes the quest and promptly deposits all items into the Depot. Including some of the turn in items for the quest.

Oh wait, I see there is another mq update, let me install that and try again
 
Upon opening my settings file, I find that it's an entry short,
Code: 
1,0,1,1,1,5000
copying and pasting from your post above, then changing the last 1 to 0 worked.

On further investigation, all my settings files are short an entry.

Many Thanks!

Just had this happen this morning. I am re-running the script to see if I can get it to repeat

Everytime I launch artisan and click go, I get this message. Reloaded RG and EQ. none of that worked.

Ok so the quick fix for this seems to be turning auto depot off. Seems to run fine with that clicked off. Auto depot also just kept trying to deposit every single inventory item into depot even after full. Easier to just have that off for now.

I am beginning to think it is trying to read a value that does not exist or is too great. so I need to put in some logic. this is my belief.. for reference this is for the ctd for global settings.

TLDR: It had 6 settings, we added 7 and now when it looks for the 7th in a file with 6 settings, boom.

The other fix is delete your settings and do it over, or modify the settings file and add a 1 or 0, before your plat number. 1 is on and 0 is off.
