Gearswap Help Thread!

[viperkc]

[QUOTE=ragnark;6139958]so today, all of a sudden, i'm getting a strange gearswap error ... i keep seeing the following repeating whenever i engage a mob:

range 2 false
ammo 3 false

i also noticed that (on thf) my TH tag swap doesn't work at all. what am i missing?

I am getting body 5 false, started just today also.

[Motenten]

That's just a debug message that got left in by accident. It will go away after the next merge.

I think instead of trying to make gearswap swap in fishing/mining/logging type stuff when they happen i will jsut make a idle set with fishin gear and one with mining loggin harvesting stuff. I already have idle sets with normal stuff, and one with movement speed (my whm mule has no movement speed so i dont use my movement on me cause i dont want to leave him behind. So i made it toggle-able.). Only problem i had is sometimes i would go to idle and it would put the ammo item on from the normal set which unequips the fishin rod. So i did the following, will that "empty" work to keep my rod on (i jsut guessed thats what i use, i think i saw it somewhere before in this thread)?

sets.Idle.Fishing = set_combine(sets.Idle.Normal, 
		{range="Ebisu Fishing Rod",ammo="empty",
		neck="Fisher's Torque",
		body="Fisherman's Smock",hands="Fisherman's Gloves",lring="Puffin Ring",rring="Noddy Ring",
		legs="Fisherman's Hose",feet="Fisherman's Boots"})

Ok not sure when this started as I have been away from the game for about a week but now when using Mote's BRD if I try to sing a song too quickly and the pianissimo timer isn't ready it will just get stuck in a loop and keep using pianissimo over and over and over again until I reload.

I'm having an unusual issue with my GC, one I can't seem to figure out the problem with. On my BLU SC (which I stole from Prothescar, and then filled in the sets for myself) I was going to test CDC after the update, only to find that it was equipping the incorrect set. For whatever reason, it was equipping my M.acc set. Curious as to why this wasn't working, I narrowed down sections, removing them then reloading to find out if it still did the same thing. I narrowed it down to my midcast section, and then found out it has something to do with my m.acc rule. I snipped it out briefly, and low and behold, CDC equipped the proper sets again. However, what I don't understand is WHY it affected CDC; it has no reason to do so. I've gone over it a few times, and I'm not getting it. So maybe y'all have an answer.

Now the issue is with lines 346-348. It might be something else inherent in the script that I missed, but if those lines are snipped out then everything works fine. I don't know; perhaps you guys have an answer. @.@

if by CDC you mean Cimicine Discharge

the reason is
or spell.english == 'Cimicine Discharge'

[Kensagaku]

...no, CDC as in Chant Du Cygne. My apologies, I assumed that was a common abbreviation.

ok but
you need to fix this in that if
or 'Demoralizing Roar' then
to
or spell.english == 'Demoralizing Roar' then

[Kensagaku]

Wow. I looked at that for like ten minutes straight and didn't see that. -.-; That fixed it... weird that that broke only my WS, but it's fixed! Thank you.

Ok, so this is my first attempt with Gearswap, which is a simplifyed version of Byrth's template:
pastebin.com/J00iqF1G

The issues are:
- As thought the gear swaps during JAs and WS, I would like to see a message of gear changing just like spellcast did (and no, silence is not loaded).
- The aftercast session is too elaborate for me and i'd like to define a single universal aftercast value for whatever actions.
- Changing between sets is not possible yet. Either after JAs and WS or when engaging disengaging.
- I would like to make macros to change sets. I understand that i can toggle between them or set individual commands, but I don't know how to put in the macro. I tried //gs c 'TP Set" but that didn't seem to work either.
- Saber Dance and Fan Dance were only cancelled after two key typing. Maybe it is because the commandimput were too fast? How to determine a delay?
- Auto-Presto does not work at all. I want it to trigger even if I already have 4 finishing moves (accuracy purposes), so i adapted Mote's rules. Still, it does not trigger.

I guess that's all for now. Thank you for your imputs.

[Byrthnoth]

- GearSwap doesn't show equipment messages and won't do that.

- You can delete lines 291 - 341 if you want to make the aftercast section shorter.

- Not sure what you mean

- /console gs c toggle TP set

- This is probably just the delay of your client.

- You never call the auto presto function, so it will never work.

[Arcon]

If you just want to verify the gear you changed, you can set do //gs showswaps. That will spam all your gear changes to the chat log in one line.

[Kyte]

Yeah, I used that when I noticed that my BLU gearswap (which is also based on Prothescar's) was putting in some random set for WS yesterday. I fixed it the same way (snipped some lines in and out) and whatever I did fixed it.

However I do have one prevailing issue- Blue Magic is just getting my general Fast Cast set swapped in (so no BLU AF3 body, but I do still get Luhlaza's). That's annoying but at least I still get most of the cast time reduction. What's really bothering me is the fact that for whatever reason, Nature's Meditation in particular isn't getting precasted at all.

[vtenorio]

Thank you guys for the fast reply... here we go:

- //gs showswaps seems fine, but i also wold like to be able to "freeze" the swap for checking if all gear were really swapped (just like //sc set waltz used to do)

- deleted the aftercast lines

- I was receiving lots of error messages related to the aftercast... gonna check now if they are gone

- Lets say I don't want to toggle between sets at all, but determine specific keys for each set. Can I do this part like this?
pastebin.com/YTC0LFmS

- To avoid client delay, I would like to set the delay in the Dances and Jigs lines. Could they be like this?
pastebin.com/MuVhGP6m

- Autopresto is part of my play strategy for too long now, I am not willing to give up on it. Just wondering if the following would work :

function auto_presto(spell)
if spell.type == 'Step' then
cast_delay(2)
send_command('@input /raw /ja "Presto" <me>')
end
end

I changed '@input /ja "Presto" <me>' to '@input /raw /ja "Presto" <me>', since this was the way it used to work in spellcast.

Thanks again

[Shadowmeld]

you would probably just add this code to your precast function to do the auto presto.

function precast(spell)

  if spell.type == 'Step' and get_ability_recasts()[whatever the id for presto is] < 1 then
    cancel_spell()
    windower.send_command('input /ja "Presto" <me>; wait 2; input /ja "' .. spell.english .. '" ' .. spell.target.raw)
  end

end

I'm a total noob to gearswap and don't understand it at all, but I'm trying to make the transition from spellcast. I copied a COR gearswap from the shop thread and changes the gear to match what I have. The gearswap loads and runs but I get an error, "attempt to index field 'TP' (a nil value). Please help.

Tried to post link to pastebin, but don't have enough posts yet.

its line 482 equip(sets.TP[sets.TP.index[TP_ind]])
it should be equip(sets.MeleeTP[sets.TP.index[TP_ind]])

[JSHidaka]

hmmm any idea why this code give me error [attempt to index fiel '?' (a nil... cant read more... my mule have low resolution)] when I use a WS that I dont have a set?

	if spell.type:lower() == 'weaponskill' then
		if (spell.target.distance >4 and not ranged_ws[spell.name]) or (spell.target.distance >22) then
			add_to_chat(125,'> > Cancelled Too far > > '..spell.name)	
			cancel_spell()
			return
		end
		
		if sets.WS[spell.english][WSindex[ind]] then 
                         equip(sets.WS[spell.english][WSindex[ind]])
			equip(sets.ammo[ammo[wsammoind]])
		else
			equip(sets.WS.others)
		end
end

If I use "...sets.WS[spell.english] then" it works... and since used a WS that doesnt have a set go to others... the only problem with this one would be If I use a WS that have sets.WS[spell.english], but doesnt have the WSindex set..
