Gearswap Help Thread 2: this time it makes sense

ok, i will stare at that programming lua link for a while. thank you

Hello

I posted this question on FFXIAH but no response. Question about Arislan's COR Lua from the 'Luck of the Draw' guide. Using the file as is, I can't get the selectqdtarget feature (toggle <stnpc> vs <t>) to work. The toggle notification works but the functionality always stays <t>.

Is this function actually working for anyone?

I read through the relevant code (@lines 1263 and 1322) and see no input for <stnpc> anywhere. Is there a line missing?
I would expect to see ('@input /ja "'..doqd..'" <stnpc>') somewhere (like on line 1336 for <t>)...

Thanks

to tell the truth it does not look like
gs c qd Uses the currently configured shot on the target, with either <t> or <stnpc> depending on setting.
and
gs c toggle selectqdtarget Toggles whether or not to use <stnpc> (as opposed to <t>) when using a shot.
where implemented as you can only use change target in pretarget or before you sent the command for the ability and i see neither of these in the code you posted

Curious what I have to add to Arislan's BLU lua to make obi swapping work on elemental blu spells/blu cures? Tried adding several obi rules from other blu lua/my other caster lua as well as attempting to use the sets in mote files.

https://github.com/ArislanShiva/luas...rislan-BLU.lua Source of the LUA in question

Sorry for a rather basic question, not too familiar with gearswap.

Ugh, yeah. I'll give a shot at making it work but not sure if I fully understand the originator's intentions.
If anyone has an artful way of finishing it off, let me know. Otherwise I will post my brute force method if I get it working.
Thanks for the sanity check.

i dont know much about motes include so i cant help you

Hey guys, forgive the post but my limited searching didn't come up with any similar problems so I thought I'd ask here... I'm making my own GS lua and I've got this function that checks to see what needs to be locked before equipping my default TP gear in my aftercast (also called when a mode is turned on). It looks like this:

Code:

function equip_primary_set()
    enable('main','sub','range','ammo','head','neck','lear','rear','body','hands','lring','rring','back','waist','legs','feet')
    if ra_mode == 1 then
        equip(sets.weapons.ra)
        disable('range','ammo')
    end
    if cp_mode == 1 and cp_lock then
        equip(sets.cp)
        disable(cp_lock)
    end
    equip(sets.tp)
end

Here are the sets and variables that are loaded up for reference.

Code:

sets.weapons.ra =                       {range="Albin Bane"}
sets.tp =                               {ammo="Falcon Eye",
                                                head={ name="Herculean Helm", augments={'Accuracy+19','"Triple Atk."+3',}},
                                                body="Meg. Cuirie +2",
                                                hands={ name="Herculean Gloves", augments={'"Triple Atk."+3','STR+3','Accuracy+14','Attack+13',}},
                                                legs={ name="Herculean Trousers", augments={'Accuracy+30','"Triple Atk."+3','INT+7',}},
                                                feet={ name="Herculean Boots", augments={'"Triple Atk."+3','Accuracy+12','Attack+12',}},
                                                neck="Clotharius Torque",
                                                waist="Windbuffet Belt",
                                                left_ear="Sherida Earring",
                                                right_ear="Digni. Earring",
                                                left_ring="Rajas Ring",
                                                right_ring="Ilabrat Ring",
                                                back={ name="Senuna's Mantle", augments={'DEX+20','Accuracy+20 Attack+20','DEX+10','"Dbl.Atk."+10','Damage taken-5%',}}
                                            }

sets.cp =                               {back="Aptitude Mantle"}
cp_lock =                               {'back'}

cp_mode = 0
ra_mode = 0

CP mode works fine. When I turn it on, the mantle is equipped and it won't get overwritten in precasts or aftercasts. However, the RA mode will equip the Albin Bane, but it is overwritten with the Falcon's Eye every time this function is called again, even though the ra_mode value is set to 1.

Does anything stand out to anyone here? It's super weird that it works the first time it hits this function on mode change but doesn't on aftercast. Please let me know if anything stands out, I'll keep fighting with it.

                                            }

you can use these commands to see when things are changing
//gs debug_mode
//gs show_swaps

Code:

cp_lock = {'back'}

    if cp_mode == 1 and cp_lock then
        equip(sets.cp)
        disable(cp_lock)
    end

this is pointless so i dont understand it unless you have a way to nil cp_lock
this would be the same thing:
remove

Code:

cp_lock = {'back'}

change the rest to

Code:

    if cp_mode == 1 then
        equip(sets.cp)
        disable('back')
    end

Can not seem to get the Agoge Mask +3 to swap, with or without the augments. I see nothing in the rules that would prevent it from swapping. I did try a diff head pc to see if it would swap, and it did so, why just this one pc that wont swap. Any ideas?

**Latravant** · 2018-09-29 17:10

i'm having a problem with gearswap (second time ever messing with it and its been 6 years since the last time). i'm trying to get the lua to use my engaged set but its not switching. it switches to idle and healing but sticks to idle when i'm engaged.

Spoiler: show

are you using motes include
if so i am not that good with it
if not i would need to see your lua to verify whats wrong
--please upload it to pastebin and post the like here

**Latravant** · 2018-09-29 17:27

i'm using the Github gearswap blu.lua file (BG wiki wont let me post the url) i think it is the mote one

**ElderGodd** · 2018-09-29 17:28

Ok i got it, swap problem corrected.

**Latravant** · 2018-09-29 17:36

This is what my file looks like:

**Latravant** · 2018-09-29 18:17

think i figured it out, i turned on debug and it shows the gs trying to load engaged.dw which i havent edited.

**Latravant** · 2018-09-29 18:19

wooot got it to work thanks for trying to help, ps love the skillup file

with pastbin you can post the file like the
for this url: https://pastebin.com/B9n3Vhn4
use this: Pastbin:B9n3Vhn4

this should work till you can post url's

Hello everyone, i have a request about pup.lua.

I wanna know if its possible to add something like that :

Code:

If iddlemode = "DD" then
   if pet.tp > 900 then equip pet.ws.set
                   else equip iddle.set.dd
   end

If iddlemode = "tank" then
   if ja.strobe recast > 29 then equip pet.voke.set
                   else equip iddle.set.tank
   end
   if ja.flash recast > 29 then equip pet.voke.set
                   else equip iddle.set.tank
   end

do you think we can add this to a standard pup.lua, this way we can let gs swap gear before pet get 1K tp so before ws and go back to pet.tp set when tp low.

**psylo** · 2018-10-10 10:38

atm, i swap manually into Kiting set before my pup get 1K tp and put Kiting off after to go back to iddle.pet.tp
i add this in my lua but didn't work ...

Code:

function job_status_change(new_status, old_status)
if new_status == 'Idle' then
 pettp()
end
end

function job_update(cmdParams, eventArgs)
pettp()
end

-- Called when pet is about to perform an action
function pettp()
if pet.tp >= 900 then
	kiting = true
else
	kiting = false
end
end
