Freeshard specific scripts / Re: Heartwood Fletcher Quest for Bolts
« on: June 23, 2010, 05:09:48 PM »
Thanks for this script!

I had a little trouble getting it to work on my shard, but I did get it eventually. Here's what I did (extremely noob fixes) in case anyone else has similar problems:
Spoiler: show

1. get the bow quest from the npc you aren't targeting normally, as mentioned earlier in the thread

2. if your shard doesn't have trash bags, and you move too far away from the barrel when the you automatically move towards the npc, and then the trashcan is too far away:

say "Hail X" where x is the name of the vendor (so they don't move) as a looped razor macro so they don't move


3. it didn't recognize the rewards I wanted to keep and kept throwing them away!!  I think its a problem with the #PROPERTY variable not getting updated (it was stuck on the #PROPERTy of a talisman for reasons that escape me)

here is my extremely noob fix :

replace:
[spoiler][code]
Finditem PIP_UFG_DWR C_ , %Currentbag
if #findkind <> -1
{
set %Findid #findid
Gosub Read_Property
goto Sort_Rewards[/code]


with:
Spoiler: show
[code]Finditem UFG_DWR C_ , %Currentbag
if #findkind <> -1
{
set %Findid #findid

exevent drag %findid 1
wait 6
exevent dropc %RareRecipebag
wait 6
set %Nightreaper %Nightreaper + 1
goto Sort_Rewards
[/code]


you won't save any recipes and only the nightreaper counter will go up whenever you get anything else, but it WILL save the runics and talismans!

Whats up?  I first played UO back in '01 or '02 I think?  Not exactly sure what shard, but I'm thinking Pacific most likely? I was pretty young then, but I clearly remember the excitement of me and my schoolmates getting together and pking noob miners in Minoc with our massive (~80 swords) skills 8). We used to make doodles of pvp battles in school lol.  After a long hiatus I started up on a free shard called Pandora ( www.pandorauo.com ) about two months ago, and have been learning the ropes. Actually, a few months before that I was playing on secondage, because that's what I was familiar with, but I got tired of it, so I started looking for a freeshard that had all the expansions. Whew! Overwhelming at first, but I'm starting to get a grip on it... custom housing is way awesome, and the new magic system is pretty cool compared to the old "of vanquishing" stuff. There's no skill cap on my shard so I've been trying to GM as many skills as I can, the big ones left to do are smithing, spellweaving, inscription, and alchemy. I'm also trying to learn pvp but I still get owned by all the old vets (who have all this sweet runic gear that I'm just now figuring out how to get for myself). What really surprised me is how many people there are scattered across all the shards still, UO has stood the test of time pretty well I think.

I won't lie I found this site searching for a Heartwood fletching quest script, I see by the image VVV you guys must get that a lot. I can haz?? My shard doesn't have OSI style imbuing, more of a custom system, so I've been salivating over having an ultra l33t runic bow, but crafting those bows by hand for the quest is a pain.

I only ever took two BASIC programming classes in hs & messed around with Flash Actionscript, so I'm not a very good scripter, but I've been learning when I have the time, which isn't a whole lot since I'm in school. Anyway I hope you'll let me join your community because it seems pretty solid, I'll probably stick around for more than the Heartwood script. I don't know if you pro scripters will benefit much from my little scripts, but I won't be a jerk or annoying noob or anything.
