What's the best ways you've come up with so far for opening and closing a container/gump in OEUO?

Is there a guaranteed way to open a container from an item id (chest/corpse/whatever) and waiting until it's open? Is that handled the same way as in EUO?
And is there a guaranteed way to close a specific gump by ID as well?

Guaranteed being the key word here. How robust is the client interface in OEUO? What level of error checking can we add? As an example there was no way to guarantee a gump was closed in EUO, you could right click it, but if the user moved the mouse simultaneously, and/or the container lost focus due to, say rain, the script would think the gump was closed, when in fact it isn't. What's OEUO like in this regard?


Discussion, LUA snippets, ideas? (I haven't started yet, this is me doing some early research )

But is DCI that utterly critical that you can forgo all other mods on your suit? The parts I listed above have NO other mods except DCI, that would be 2/3 of the suit exclusively for DCI if we want to get to 60...

There isn't a set budget here, I'm just trying to figure out how low we can go few 100K for the suit should be doable. And as per my OP, Solo Miasma is the target. The reasoning behind it is, Sampire is the most useful PvM template currently in the game, but it's not cheap to get up and running. I wanted to see how cheap you can make a Sampire, with PS and suit, that would still be effective. I say Miasma is a good test, if you can solo Miasma you can enjoy the majority of the game without a problem. So for a new player to get up and running, what is the minimum requirements? Then once we have the template and gear figured out, I (and whoever else wants to give it a go) will build the char, test it and see


Here's the current state of the suit:
Ancient Samurai Helm
Heart of the Lion
Fey Leggings
Quiver of Infinity

50 DCI, Since 45 is cap I don't think Quiver is necessary, but is there anything else useful in that slot?

Feedback, suggestions?

Ok let's keep this rolling, something to do until EUO gets updated

* What are required mods on a sampire suit? What's the stuff you can't survive without on your armor, weapon or any part of your gear?
* And what are the mods that are nice to have but not entirely critical?
Just trying to get ideas for putting together a cheap-ish suit.


Here are mine to start it off:
* 60+ All resists with 70 physical a must since most monsters hit phys.
* DCI, nice to have, but is it critical?

For shits and giggles I want to make a budget Sampire. Something a new player could make within a human lifetime.
So I'd like some suggestions for the template. Stats, skills and gear.
Our goal is to solo Miasma.

Skills are max 110, since 110's are easily affordable by anyone.
Gear will be crafted and/or martys only, so no vet rewards, Rune Beetle Carpace or other major artys.

Go nuts!

RESULTS (so far):

Suit:
Heart of the lion
Fey legs

Just looking for someone on Pacific to do regular hunts with. Anyone got a guild going, SA bosses, Peerless?

So, old news, they are (allegedly) adding third party app detection to UO, so they can ban people using EasyUO.
Fine, then they'll have to take a long hard look at WHY people script, and improve the gameplay to a point where people don't feel the same need to script, right?
WRONG. The latest client publish removed the water pitcher overfilling trick. Effectively making plant tending even MORE of a click fest.


Am I the only one who feel as if the devs might have slightly less than no clue about their own game? It's a small thing, I know, but it's an indication of a bigger problem.
