configure a support bot

Support Bot

A support bot is used to accompany and assist a real player or a hunting bot. It is normally used in novice development.

Attack settings

• attackAuto is usually 0, off. That's because attacking will cause the bot to stop following the master.
• lockMap is empty.

Route setting

• route_randomWalk normally set to 0.

Follow settings (following another character)

To use follow it is recommended that your character is in a group with the master. If this is not possible, use the plugin busFollow.

• follow must be 1. followTarget set nick master
• followEmotion defines whether the bot should react on the emoticons used by the master. Recommended to leave this option off, because it's obvious to players that their character is botting.
• followDistanceMax and followDistanceMin define the maximum and minumum distance, your bot should be the master.
• followSitAuto if enabled, your bot will sit when the master is sitting.
• followBot sends a PM to the master asking him to come to the support character. The name of this bot must be on the master file overallAuth.txt. It is recommended that you use the plugin busFollow instead of this option.

Skill settings

• To use skills on monsters, use blocks attackSkillSlot.
• To use skills on yourself (buffs, healing) use blocks useSelf_skill.
• You can find examples ready for your class examples of configurations.

Party settings

• attackAuto_party is set according to the members of the group. See the page for setting and options.
• partyAutoShare, partyAutoShareItem and partyAutoShareItemDiv configure the divisions for the items and XP between the group members if your bot is the leader.
