Salvage Bot Program - who is going to make it?
|
Rydia on MT has some code that allows her to salvage items for players. My mage has 5 salvaging augs and maxed skill, and I'd like to set him up at times for guildmates to be able to use his salvaging skills.
It could be simple plugin that basically does this:
Open trade window with bot > welcome etc...please add salvage > trade > bot salvages materials (best use based on logic from other plugins, ie calculates bag sizes) > asks player to open trade to get items back > put bags into trade window > trade.
Enhancements could include the option to name how you want the bags divided, ie. 7 and under together, 8, 9, 10 separate. Help could give instructions as well as what the bot gives from each piece.
I have no coding skills...but this would be very useful.

my suggestion would NOT to combine bags, just provide the basic slag each item passed and return.
let the USER best determine which and when stuff is to be combined.
would make bot's logic a lot easier to create.

I am sure this would be next to nothing for Paraduck to add to his Tinker Bot Plugin (By the way kicks @$$) The only thing that would really need to be added would be the whole join salvage bags and item ID'ing.

There's an AC Tool one Egam, but aparently you have to be registered to Rogue Knights boards(rogueknights.org) to download it.

I would agree with salvaging each item one at a time, and handing back x number of bags, rather than trying to figure out how to combine.
Things to consider:
Item #1 has a major.. prompt user to salvage it?
Item #2 has an imbue.. prompt user to salvage it?
Bot only has x # of slots open in main pack... make maximum number of givable items x-1?
Bot is given 3 steel, 5 mahog, 5 iron items.. salvage one of each each time (1steel+1mahog+1iron until there is nothing left) or salvage one item each time (this could be done fast enough)?

Good points yaroz, definatly good considerations.
My preference would be also for a non-auto combining salvage system.
In regards to salvaging multiple items at once, I suspect the bot will need to be able to deal with both metheods due to some folks preferences in this regard but folks may have to accept what they can get.

not sure as in the past turbine said chance of doing more by individually slagging each piece.
Of course that guidance was preSalvage Augs maximation. But from what i recall of when the old salvage program worked, slagging each piece individually was very fast.
So while these days with it being anyone's guess if individual slagging is still > all at once, the speed of doing each is probably such that it will mean much cleaner code in that you don't have to track with buffed skill of ____ work 6 will slag to 6, 7, 8, ...., 19 units thus making determining HOW much to slag at one click a nightmare.
as for folks wanting it combined. if they using the bot and would have slagged work 6 into 6, 7 or maybe 8 units, getting back 19 from a bot should stiffle any concerns.
