Gearswap Help Thread!

[dlsmd]

Gotcha, i'll work that in.

Also, so far it looks like the answer is "not possible", is there any logic in gearswap to predict the target mob is being effected by a magicburst event and automatically utilize mb gear? I understand that there are manual binds, etc that can be done to toggle to mb gear use, but I wasnt able to find out if there is any automatic way to know that an mb is happening and use the appropriate gear.

it does not mean it cant happen but you would have to build that your self

:E There's a reason why I went engineer and not programmer.

if you look at my code
Registered_Events in my include: https://github.com/smd111/Gearswap/b...red_Events.lua
The Display Control System i built for my include:
https://github.com/smd111/Gearswap/b...re/Display.lua
https://github.com/smd111/Gearswap/b...isplay_sub.lua
you can do almost anything in gearswap

also i never knew how to code other then batch file/xml before windower added lua to its system and in less then 6 months i created my include and a few addons
tho i did do it with help from others

Working on a gearswap for pld (Motenten's with addition of a few acc arrays and AM3 now) and added this to the function customize_melee_set(meleeSet)
Code

if buffactive['Aftermath: Lv.3'] then
    meleeSet = set_combine(meleeSet, sets.engaged.aftermath, sets.engaged.aftermath[state.OffenseMode.value])
    end

Not sure if this was the correct spot, but I know it works fine, it equips my AM3 set with all the acc levels when I toggle through them. The only problem I'm having now is that my PDT set will not equip/lock-in while I'm meleeing with AM3 up. It will lock me in my PDT set when I do not have AM3 up though, and when I'm disengaged.

Byrth,
Any thought on my earlier conundrum?

I am getting a random error when ever inventory changes in my inventory; selling/buying/drops/etc.

This has happened from the very start before any modifications to anything. I've also tried redownloading.

"Lua runtime error: gearswap/gearswap.lua:362: attempt to index field '?' (a nil value)"

Looking at the lua..

    elseif id == 0x01E then
        local bag = to_windower_api(res.bags[data:byte(0x09)].english)
        local slot = data:byte(0x0A)
        local count = data:unpack('I',5)
        if not items[bag][slot] then items[bag][slot] = make_empty_item_table(slot) end
        items[bag][slot].count = count
        if count == 0 then
            items[bag][slot].id = 0
            items[bag][slot].bazaar = 0
            items[bag][slot].status = 0
        end

Line 362 is:
if not items[bag][slot] then items[bag][slot] = make_empty_item_table(slot) end

I have access to all 8 bags, so not real sure why this is happening.

Needless to say when I am in a jp pt and killing mobs every 30 sec or so.. it's a lot of errors popping up.

I'm assuming it would be probably a bad idea commenting that section out if all else fails?

Anything I can do to provide logs/debug?

[Byrthnoth]

The only thing I can think of is that there's something wrong with your copy of gearswap or your resources.

Here is everything it relies on:
windower/plugins/LuaCore.dll: https://www.dropbox.com/s/la5jz88ftj...aCore.dll?dl=0
windower/addons/gearswap: https://www.dropbox.com/s/01xcoic7x1...rSwap.zip?dl=0
windower/res: https://www.dropbox.com/s/u5nspsotmeoxowj/res.zip?dl=0

[SephYuyX]

I'll try it from those locations and will let you know.
Thanks.

[SephYuyX]

Yup, that did the trick!
Not sure why downloading through windower would be an issue. Is it pointing to a different repository or something?

[Byrthnoth]

No, but Windower somewhat misuses GitHub's zip download option. Occasionally people get a cached version of the zip, which results in their code being out of date. For whatever reason, this happens most often for Libraries.

Something something the internet is a series of tubes something.

[Sechs]

I did something like this some time ago but then I deleted that part and I don't remember how I did it anymore ><
Basically equip specific set/equipment when in a specific area.
It's easy enough with the world.zone thing, but I remember I had a custom function that was changing my gear on zone change, without me performing any action etc.

What did I use? Status_change(new, old)?
What do you people use to perform specific actions on zone-change?

[Byrthnoth]

http://dev.windower.net/doku.php?id=...i:events:start

town_ids = S{138, 23842, 3892832} etc.

windower.register_event('zone change',function(new_id,old_id)
         if town_ids[new_id] then
                  equip(that_gear)
         else
                  equip(that_other_gear)
         end
end)

[Sechs]

Thanks Byrth!

[Trumpy]

Oh wow if i could figure that out it would be a dream. ive been using autoexec for zone changing my gears, like councilers stuffs for adoulin

[dlsmd]

this is what i use for zone change

function zone_change(new_id,old_id) --zone change event
    local zones = gearswap.res.zones
    local new = zones[new_id].name
    local old = zones[old_id].name
    coroutine.sleep(4)
    --do what you want; new = new zone name string,old = old zone name string
end
windower.raw_register_event('zone change', zone_change)

This might be too complex for GS, but worth asking.

I was wondering if there was a way to ensure a CP buff from a ring is applied if it's worn off. Checking for a buff and changing gear is easy, but the items have a timer before they can be used after being equipped so thats where I'm drawing a blank.
Also the items have a global timer, like 2 hours for Trizek Ring, so that alone might throw my plan off anyways. I don't wan't it trying to use the item every few seconds when it can't for another hour.

Probably a pipe dream I guess. Seems like it would more than likely require a plugin to manage.

[Byrthnoth]

You could do it pretty easily using the extdata library, but I can't tell you exactly what you would have to write.

[Tanag]

Thanks I'll check it out. Can probably model it after the aecho addon and just add a timer check for the item.

here you go

Damn thanks!

[dlsmd]

i forgot to put this one in there my bad

function check_in_party(name)--returs true if given name is in allience
     for pt_num,pt in ipairs(alliance) do
         for pos,party_position in ipairs(pt) do
             if party_position.name == name then
                return true
             end
         end
     end
end
