WindBot 2.0.5 (Full iBot Converter)

[Lucas Terra]

Hello guys,

For the past few weeks I have been working on a special feature for you. I know that many of you used other bots before WindBot was released and switching to another software is not an easy thing. You must learn a lot of new things and leave a lot of work behind, like all the scripts and Lua code you spent a lot of time to make. So instead of making everyone do the work of converting and rewriting their scripts to WindBot format, I developed a tool that will do the conversion automatically for you, so that you can try the scripts you have made for other bots on WindBot.

WindBot now supports FULLY converting scripts from other bots (currently the only bot supported is iBot, because its structure is very similar to WindBot's) including healer, waypoints, targeting, scripts and Lua scripts (YES, even Lua scripts!). All you have to do is press "convert" and you are good to go!

You can use it to convert scripts you have made for other bots, or if you are a maker you can also release your scripts for WindBot, but please do not convert scripts from others without their explicit permission because you could be violating their copyrights!

Also, keep in mind that scripts made for WindBot will always be better, faster and easier to use, because they can make use of the advanced features only WindBot has!



You can grab the new version here: WindBot 2.0.5 (15,442 KB)
If you find any conversion problems please report on this thread. Most of the conversion problems can easily be fixed with a library update.

Added:

• Full iBot script conversion (converts everything, including actions, HUDs, persistent scripts, hotkeys...). (thanks to @Raphael and @Leonardo for helping me with that)
• Loot After Melee Kill option to Looting. This option will open any body around your character right after you kill it.
• You can now right click on a widget in User Options and copy its Lua getuseroption(...) and setuseroption(...)
• Shortcut to save the last loaded/saved .xml file.
• @sirmate's lib converted to work on WindBot. This library will get load ONLY IF a script use any function from the lib.
• Auto-mount option to Cavebot.
• 'Ignore' option for 'Leave at' in Supplies tab. (thanks to @brad)

Improved:

• Redesigned some parts of Targeting's shoot area rune. It should now shoot area runes very fast and precisely.
• screenshot(...) will now append a number next to the file name if a file with the same name already exists.
• travel(...) now considers some new NPCs (thanks to @sylomex, @TibiaDealer, @Nightshade and @Donatello). Let me know if you encounter any travel destination missing.
• Drop function (from Looting) will not drop items inside other bodies, to avoid the need of browse fielding when not necessary.

Fixed:

• Auto select profile not being triggered under some rare circumstances.
• Auto load .xmls setting not being triggered under some rare circumstances. You must have 'Settings/LoadCharacterSettings' checked for it to work.
• screenshot(...) function capturing black screens some times.
• screenshot(...) function not working when using '*/\?"<>:' in screenshot names.
• reachcreature(...) event not finishing after reaching the creature.
• Only If Trapped option killing every monster on screen after getting trapped.

Changes:

• Now 'Load character settings on login' is checked by default. It will load your character's .xmls file on login.
• HUDs are now saved in .xmlc files, and is no longer part of .xmls files.

New Foreach Iterator:

• sectionvalue - iterates through a database section. i.e.
  

  foreach $chardb:sectionvalue v 'killCount' do
  
  	print(v.name, v.value)
  
  end

New Lua Function:

• getcreature(name) - returns a creature pointer to the creature named name. Alternatively, you can pass the creature's ID. If the creature was not found it returns an empty creature.
• setupdelayedload(libName, priority, globalFunctionNamesTable) - sets up a library to be "delay loaded". libName is the name of the lib inside /delayed folder, priority is the library's priority, and globalFunctionNamesTable is a list of functions the library will expose. For an example on how to use it, check libs/sirmate.lua or libs/windConverterWrapper.lua.

New ItemData Property:

• .lootmsgcount - returns how many times an item showed up in loot messages from the server log.

New Variables:

• $shovelid - returns the ID set for your shovel in Cavebot/Settings.
• $ropeid - returns the ID set for your rope in Cavebot/Settings.
• $pickid - returns the ID set for your pick in Cavebot/Settings.
• $macheteid - returns the ID set for your machete in Cavebot/Settings.

2.0.1
Fixed:

• LeaveCaveAt not loading 'Ignore' option correctly, on supplies tab.
• Character getting stuck when creature is standing right over an special area tile.

Fixes on iBot Converter:

• Healing rules not being checked as enabled or disabled according to the xml script.
• creature.dist will now return -1 if the creature is not on your screen.
• setsetting/getsetting path not persisting after saving an iBot script in WindBot format.
• Input settings not being loaded from XML file.

2.0.2
Fixed:

• Targeting Keep Away stance getting stuck for some people (let me know if you still have problems with it). (thanks to @leandrocore)
• User interface getting frozen when conversion log message box showed up.
• Crash when trying to rename 'Add waypoint section button' on Cavebot. (thanks to @Dworak)

Improved:

• keyevent(...) can now press Ctrl/Shift hotkeys, i.e: keyevent('ctrl+f4')

2.0.3
Fixed on iBot Converter:

• Small incompatibility problem with clientitemhotkey(...)
• Looting entries taking the item name instead of iBot's entry name.
• Minor changes to error messages to make it more clear.

Fixed:

• Browse Field functions not functions properly if the container index was higher than 0.

Improved in Authentication System:

• Now you will receive a message if you got rejected for trial days.

2.0.4
Fixed:

• User Options not loading correctly from database when switching characters.

Improved:

• getarearunetile(...) is calculated internally now. It should be a lot more accurate than the old Lua function.
• useitemon(...) will now run faster when shooting runes.

New HUD:

• SimulatedCursor - draws the simulated cursor on your screen.

New Variable:

• $simulatedcursor - returns the position of the simulated cursor.

2.0.5
Fixed in iBot Converter:

• Not converting Looting Policy correctly.
• cooldown(...) not returning group cooldowns.
• More incompatibilities with clientitemhotkey(...)

Changes in Condition Healer:

• Haste spells will no longer be casted if you are standing on the same SQM for more than 20 seconds.

Changes in Lua System:

• Accesses to userdata variables are now case insensitive, which means that $target.posx is the same as $target.pOsX. This is to be make it compatible with certain scripts. You should still use the lowercase version as that is the convention.

Changes in Items.xml:

• Now you can add an attribute 'alternativeNames' to items. i.e.:
  

  <item id="9016" name="rust remover" alternativeNames="flask of rust remover; flasks of rust remover" buyPrice="50" weight="0.9"/>
