Quest Bots

No clue how you'll make it check how far you've progressed. Maybe it's possible with some plugins, idk. But I dont have enough knowledge for that.

Anyway, I've thought about it a while ago. And It should be possible if you make almost every quest in a single bot. And make them load after each other with the Load Bot command. If you organize everything neatly in maps. Like:
- Prologue
--Quest 1
--Quest 2
-Escherion
--Quest 1
...

This way users simply have to navigate to the bot they need to start with. And it's the only way I know that would allow reconnecting. If you add multiple quests that can only be completed once. Then there'll be issues if you disconnect on the second or higher quest in that bot.

The problem is that it will only work for 1 version of grimoire. And users have to place them in the exact same place.
Because the load bot commands uses filepaths. e.g Grimoire 3.8\Bots\Prologue\Quest2

If you do have a better way of checking the progress. Then I'm interested in how.

Thanks for ur in depth reply buddy.
I've been thinking about the same thing with "Load Bot" command, like working with maps and having people use only 1 version is no big deal
And I am sure people are willing to adapt to this once they discovered how amazing this actually is.

Now for the checking progress I will ask @Biney or some other dev to create some kind of plugin that tracks Quests
This will be hard because some Quests will dissapear after completion & some dont. The only way to do something like this
is to work with Join Room command and Map Is / Map is Not. When Quests complete they open new maps etc..

Another way could be after completing some quests the character automaticly joins a room and farm a certain amount of "Items"
So everytime u start the Bot it checks how many of these items u have in ur inventory and it knows "Ah 5 Bone dust we start at Prologue Quest 5"
20 Bonedust "Ah we should start at Escherion
This isnt even that hard to achieve for us?

I hope u like the concept

Interesting. I'm sure that you'll think of suggestions for Grimoire while working on this, and you should let me know of them... I will not promise anything however.

hue. Yea, an item using as some kind of counter could be used. Although, I've always figured that you would need to add some warnings in your post to not sell this item etc. So instead of confusing readers about it. It's simpler in most cases to just say, find the bot you want to start.
Most story parts open up a shop in the lorebook. So you could use that. Since it's AC tagged. Players won't really sell it.


Anyway, sounds like you figured things out
And although I don't mind brainstorming a bit. I'm probably not gonna actively write bots for this. Cause I have 0 interest in making more alts. So I lack the motivation to go through all those Quest/Item IDs
Best of luck though.

U got me on the right track, thanks!
There's another problem, I've been trying to make a demo Bot for prologue
And I have come across some quests which are Point & Click > Talk to the Knights.
Also there are some Cutscenes u can't skip without clicking.

Hm think this really comes down to plugins in the end.

Start logging packets, and do those quests, talking etc.
Use those exact same packets. If it simply gets some mapitem. Then use the ID you find in the packet for the "Get Map Item" command instead. I'm not 100% sure it works the same in the prologue though.

But afaik, only the prologue works like that. And it's not a requirement for anything. It's also not unusual for players to just skip it anyway. So if it gets too troublesome it would be wasted effort imo.

Great! Its really a early phase and all we do now is just bundle some ideas to make it work.
So if u have any ideas, brain spaghetti u wanna share please do. So in the end we can come with a proper plan to make this work.

Once again I love to see that so many are interested in something like this

How far along are you with this bot? I think it deserves attention, it appears to be a very productive goal to obtain. Best of luck, and if you need other people to help you maybe you can try setting up contact with them so they can work on certain sections while you work on others.

Been playing alot with different methods on this Bot. Some plugins would realy do the job when it comes to Point & Click quests.
It would not even take such a long time figuring this out when just skipping these annoying cutscenes u can't skip etc.. I have to watch every single
goddamn one of them and time them for a perfect delay.
But really if anyone is interested in helping this project: PLUGINS

Now it would be nice to have some sort of tool that gives Grimoire the exact amount of progress my Character has made.
Maybe this could work with quest ID's? Idk im really having some brain spaghetti on how to figure this one out.

Anyone has some solutions? Hit me up

OMG this is big Goodluck guys!
