Does anyone know how to bring up actual creature properties in EUO?  I currently have the ability to find types and all that, what I want is something like the actual name (note: these would be used for a GUI).

So, if I find a type "GO", I would want it to say "a skittering hopper" instead of "GO".

Not sure if this is the right place (or if you want this floating around here), so please delete/lock/whatever if you feel the urge - you won't hurt my feelings!

Attached is my automatic fisher from ~5 years ago.  I have *NO IDEA* if it still works.  I don't have a fisher any longer, and I don't have any of the newfangled things that came out with the High Seas booster.  I did, however, figure someone might have a use for this script (even if just to cut it to pieces to get what routines you want).

There is some massive manual setup.  You have to:
Have a boat on the server line
Have a secure within recall reach
Have a full LRC suit
Have a knife or some bladed object

All of this stuff has to be set up manually.  I really don't even remember where in the script (I'm sorry, this was written to be a private script and I made *BAAAAANK* off of it before others hit the auto fishing market).

Anyway, disclaimers out of the way here's the script.

I'm working on a little private project that may go public - later.  Before I reinvent the wheel, however, I was wondering if any of you have seen something that does this already.

Also, I'm going to use this post as my template, because I really don't feel like firing up Visio.

My current design calls for:
Automatically sort books into "good" deeds and "bad" deeds (based on reward) (probably require 4 books: Good large, Good small, recycles, garbage)
Automatically dump garbage into trash barrel (this would be large deeds not worth filling)
Empty recycles, fill all deeds, put back in recycles (or recycles 2 as they are filled)
Recall to guildmaster
Recycle all recycles until max weight (trash sturdies, gargoyles; keep prospecting tools
Recall to house, empty prospecting tools into mining box (to be used w/ runebook miner later)
Restart process

My intention is to use BodSwap2.3 for the turnin part and the script here that ties to s7's bodfiller for the filling part.  I believe I can write the sorting program myself, but if someone knows of a good one that would be awesome.  Dumping the prospecting tools shouldn't be too much of a bother.  As silly as it sounds, the part to run up to my forge/anvil is the part that bothers me the most about writing. 

I think I'll start the script at the guildmaster with 1 full BOD in backpack.  You would have to babysit one run up to the sorting routine to set everything up.


Please, the reason I'm making this post is I want some feedback before I get started.  I'm at work and won't be back on my home PC until tomorrow evening.  So, that's the earliest I think I'll be working on this (if I do then - I'll have the kids, so it may be Thursday before I start).  The important feedback I'm looking for is as follows:
1) Has something similar to this already been done?  If so, was it done well and is it supported?
2) Does anyone know of a good BOD analyzer/sorter that would know which pieces don't go into the more important large BODs?
3) Does this sound like it would even be useful?  I'm kind of worried it wouldn't be worth using with less than 50 recycles (as you would quickly diminish the number of recycles each time by sorting out the keepers).

Glad to see someone show up and jump in with sharing their work so quickly, thanks for that. But....where's the scripts? Lol. Did you forget to attach them (in this and your other thread)?

X

That is...weird.  I swear I'm hitting "choose file" and saving and it's not loading.  One moment.

edit - I was using the ImageShack button and not the appropriate button.  Should be fixed, now.

(Apparently I did this in the wrong order.  I'm supposed to share the info *THEN* the scripts.  Sorry, guys! Here's my intro!)

My friends call me John.

So, uh, who am I?  

Well, for starters I'm a UO player since '99.  I work at a large software company (not name dropping here), and I mainly got the job because of my experience writing scripts (Yes, I seriously sat one of my now managers down and showed him my auto farming script for UO at one point).

I used to be big in the scripting world about ~3 years ago.  I made a lot of good friends over at Askchopper before it kind of died.  Gimlet told me to swing by here if I ever started playing again, and so here I am.

My UO Experiece:
I was(am?) a bug tester for AC for years and years.  I am an active scripter by profession and hobby.  I play on GL and have a ton of characters.  I take breaks all the time, but this last one was the longest (~3 years).

Why do I macro?
It's fun for me.  I get my jollies by making things work, and something as complex as the systems in UO are very fun to work with.  

How did I find this place?
Old friends pointed me here

Why do I want to sign up?
To be honest, I don't know about this one.  I have scripts that do about 95% of what I've seen on here that I either got from the official easyuo site or that I wrote myself.  I surely don't need in-game money (I'm eRich I suppose).  I just enjoying writing scripts, and this seems to be the community that frowns less on my full-on-automation style of scripting.

Who am I IRL?
Software developer, divorced w/ 2 kids, 27 years old, small town Hickville USA.  I'm surprisingly boring

Anything else, just ask!  I look forward to at least annoying you guys a bit around here with some random banter.

I forgot some actual gameplay notes, LOL:

When do I play?
Evenings, sporadically.  I have two daughters most of the time and so I'm not able to play as much as usual

What do I play?
Content up to ML.  I haven't bought in to SA just yet.  Maybe, if I stick around long enough

Where do I play?
GL

What templates?
Right now I have:
Sampire
Tamer
Miner/Smith
SpellWeaver
Archer

What guild am I in?
None

How long have I played?
Counting breaks, free shards (in the day), etc?  Probably a cumulative 6-7 years.  I didn't play beta, but I bought the game at release.  



And, as a very random note: The captcha to sign up on here is CRAZY.  It took me like 7 tries to figure out vertical meant "Standing upright" and not Make them vertically oriented.  *old man grumble*

This script is designed to let you easily attack targets with a hotkey.  I use it because I am terrible at targetting and this will easily avoid those situations.

Update
Pretty much a rewrite using some of the original parts.  It was pointed out to me that this script didn't weather the EUO 1.5 transition very well (yes it's that old), and to be honest I hadn't tested it beyond pushing play and making sure the hotkeys still made me path.  I'm going to add some more functionality in as soon as I'm able to test with EUO on the current patch.
