XIIxOveR's Miner For Dummies 3.0

[_C2_]

I made a polar bear tamer once and used a look for gate id approach.  if you find it either dispel it or wait.  It looked really natural and also handled fails well.  Just a thought.

My Siege miner is up to 96 mining. Can't wait to read the gem book so that I can start putting up imbue training resources. 

You can already start imbue with making bows from oak and unraveling them with my residue maker script. I starting at 0 imbue and am about 50 now with only about 2k in oak.

[Paulonius]

Good idea, I guess I need to start cutting wood.

XII, my next suggestions for the miner:

Add in the ability to use multiple books

Add in a display on the menu that shows what book/rune you are mining.  I find that invaluable in finding my corpse again after I die.

I downloaded and started to run this script again while UO lets us use our dummy accounts for free again
seems like everything is working out great... one small issue with dropping off Granite, even though I set up a Gems bag, and Granite bag.. its still dropping the big rocks off into my Gems bag.  also.. did I hear there might be some prospector tool addon?

Also... Did I hear there might be some prospector tool addon?

That would be awesome!  I have been saving all of my Prospector's Tools ready to test the script out when using them.  Seems like the only time I use the Prospector's Tools now is when I dig up a Shadow Elemental for a Pet to train.  Seems I also have Gargoyle's Pick Axes around as well and have only used them every once in awhile to dig up an Elemental on purpose, in order to kill off my competition of other AFK Script Miners....

Thanks for the feedback so far everyone. I appreciate it immensely! Kham, I'll take a look at the stone issue and get a fix in ASAP. Once this iteration is solid I'll start thinking through some of the suggestions such as the multiple runebooks and prospector tools. I just wanted to get these core changes to be solid before I went off on a feature tangent.

Important question, is anyone else experiencing crashing during the drag/dropc routine at the bank or at your secure? I crash multiple times per day now and I've heard from other people that they've gotten similar feedback on some of their scripts. The only consistency is that it's ALWAYS at the bank while I'm emptying my pack. I'm just wondering if anyone else is having this specifically with the 3.0 version of the miner.

Thanks again! Once I nail the last couple of stability issues I'll go to an open beta to see if more people can break it!!

I am not having the crash issue with any consistency. It does happen but just every once in a while, like maybe twice per week.

[Paulonius]

I have not crashed at all.

[Khameleon]

if I do crash.. its not a script issue... its a UO issue... its never happened at the house...

[onlyindreams]

I never had an issue with crashing. I'll run it again Monday to see if I have any issues.

I am trying to catch it during the act to give more info 12x^. Right now as it stands.  I come back to my computer ever hour or so and the script is running and gating and then all of a sudden my miner is standing  there and each time it is the same place and he is trying to unload his backpack ore into the resource container but he is no where near the resource container. He is actually at a gated spot in the runebook? He continues in an endless loop to unload his backpack into the resource contianer but cannot because it is not there.

[Oracle]

12x!

OH No!  Now they have added the ability to mine Salt Peter. You need to find a Niter Deposit and then keep mining it until the Salt Peter runs out of that deposit.  Supposedly the deposits are somewhat rare.  I can't tell yet if they run more in mountainsides or in Caverns....!?

[Khameleon]

yes please.. we need to get more information about these... my understanding is you salt peters usually spawn around water deposits?

[onlyindreams]

yes please.. we need to get more information about these... my understanding is you salt peters usually spawn around water deposits?

From what I remember reading a couple weeks ago, the deposits spawn in dungeons and maybe someplace else? If I ever get time to play for more than 2 hours per week I'll see if I can figure out how it works for sure!

OK - I downloaded set up secure, set all the stuff etc. But here is the problem  - it is not finding many of my mining spots. I think it is a z axis problem. For example - NE of the Royal City is a sandy beach by a mt. doesn't even look for a mining spot. Also when standing right up against a mt seems to miss all spots. Any clues?
