EV/NF Caster 2.0

[Scotch_Tape]

This will cast Energy Vortex and Nature's Fury and keep your follower slots full.  It will also cast invisibility or attempt to hide if you have the hiding skill.  It detects when you are losing health and heals you.  If you are poisoned it will cure.  There is an option to just stay hidden and stop casting summons.  If you need to leave that spot you can hit pause, move around, and hit start again and it will continue casting on that same spot if you place your character on the same spot.  If you pause then move to a different spot it will let you reset casting location.  Menu button for resetting cast location on the fly.

This script automatically checks how many follower slots the EV takes so if you are unmounted and EV's take 2 slots it doesn't get stuck. 

I didn't test the Natures Fury part of the script, so if you use it let me know if there are any issues.

You posted this at just the right time, I was working on almost the same thing last night.  I looked at a journal scan for location blocked then have it try to cast a few tiles away(not working yet I think the z axis is messing me up).  I will test it this afternoon and see if the nature's fury works, I think a human char has about a 50% to cast it even at 0 skill if you have done the quest.

You could also check number of followers.

Code: [Select]

gosub cast

sub cast
set %followers #followers
repeat
do all your casting stuff
gosub get_target_spot
until #followers > %followers
return
You can tell if something is cast by the number of followers you have. If you have room for more followers, just keep casting. Or you can use TM's great casting (runebook) sub.

You can also include a gosub in the repeat to change target positions.

A real slick menu with check boxes to cast in the same area, or randomly around you... with a settable distance, would be nice

Has anyone tried this out?  I'm curious if there are any big issues with it working right?

I'm looking into a more stable way to target, I'm a slow learner.  How it is now I've run this for over 24 hours without any problems, but I would like to make it have a better target system other than just using the last target.  I don't know about having it casting randomly around you, I don't see it as very useful for how I normally use it, but let me fix any bugs with it before I go adding more stuff.

Thanks for your input, I'll work on that.

I tested it out in a few places in toknuo worked fine for me on low level spawn.  It also worked ok on the toknuo champ until the third level spawn came out. Those revant lions just revel too much.   I tried to get a random casting working but I think it would take some kind of tile scaning sub.

[Scotch_Tape]

What's with the random casting spots?  What would be the point in casting all over the place? 

This script really isn't good at casting in the middle of a bunch of mobs, I use it while sitting off to the side and casting into the middle of where the mobs are spawning.  I have basic life support subs but nothing extremely effective.

[Cerveza]

If your in a spawn area with a group, like the old days doing the fan dancers, I used a quickly written EV caster.

The ultimate logic I suppose would be to have it target a spot, then each spot around that until it cast. But having a "random" switch would be cool as well.

Random Targeting sub for evs

sub cast
event macro 15 57
target 10s
gosub TM_RandomTargeting 2 ;range of tiles to cast ev from player
return

sub TM_RandomTargeting
  namespace push
  namespace local RT
  set !radius %1
  set !randx #RANDOM % !radius + 1
  set !randy #RANDOM % !radius + 1
  if #RANDOM > 500
    set !randx !randx * -1
  if #RANDOM > 500
    set !randy !randy * -1

  set !randx !randx + #CHARPOSX
  set !randy !randy + #CHARPOSY
  set #LTARGETX !randx
  set #LTARGETY !randy
  set #LTARGETZ #CHARPOSZ
  set #LTARGETKIND 2
  event macro 22 0
  namespace pop
return

I just saw this sub in a different ev script.

heh, I wrote that back on uocoders.  lol

Let help a few ppl that required this to cast at  2 different places.

Add this with the other set value.
Near line 36

Code: [Select]

set %CastTarget #false

This will be the new main loop.

Code: [Select]

While %Scotch_Tape > %Chuck_Norris
{
onhotkey F10 ctrl
   gosub SetCastTarget
If %CastNF = Yes
 gosub CastNF
If %CastEV = Yes
  gosub castEV %targetX %targetY %targetZ 57
gosub HideSelf
gosub MenuUpdate
}



Code: [Select]

sub SetCastTarget
set %targetX #charPosX
set %targetY #charPosY
set %targetZ #charPosZ
wait 4s
set %CastTarget #true
Event sysmessage Casting target set
return
; ---------------------------------------------------
sub castEV
; gosub castEV %targetX %targetY %targetZ 57
repeat
event macro 15 %4
target 5s
set #lTargetX %1
set #lTargetY %2
set #lTargetZ %3
set #lTargetKind 2
event macro 22
wait 30
if #followers <= 4
  set %1 ( %1 + 1 )
until #followers <= 4
return

hey ghost with that last post of yours would that make this script like fully automated still or would it require the player to hit that F10 hot key?

[The Ghost]

Th F10 key is just to set the location of where you will cast of where your toon stand.   If you move more then 10 titles you will need to hit F10 again.  Yes it will cast in auto.

For the original Treasures of Tokuno, demon room - am I right?

[Vlad1]

EasyUO gump with pause button doesn't work for me.

Please If it possible post the newer version of this script?

[Scotch_Tape]

I'd like to update and support this script, but it seems I had posted this script as a guest.  Is there a way to take ownership of this and update this?  Should I just submit this again?
