Diadem fishing – dev request

[junkie1977Participant]

Diadem has a ton of achievements and items hidden behind itself. While looking at the user provided options for Diadem fishing, it seems they are all limited to a lot of supervised work. Which, don’t get me wrong, is much better than all manual fishing.

Now, in looking at Miqo’ script options, we currently have options such as:
addGoodWeather() – Add specified weather to whitelist.
skipBadWeather() – Check whitelist for current weather.
diademBoom() – Release a blast of Aetheromatic Auger.
diademBoomTarget() – Add target for Aetheromatic Auger.

Since Miqo can somehow check the current weather (as used by skipBadWether function), and since there are other Diadem specific commands, any chance you could add to the wish list an implementation of something such as

diademWeather(weather, nodeID, bait, preset)
, where weather is one of four possible Umbral weathers, nodeID the position of a node in the navigation route for each of the four possible holes, bait as the correct Diadem bait name for the fish you are after, and preset as a desired fishing preset name.

(more on this rare fishing can be found on Dauntless Treader section of Teamcraft)

While you can never check other things while you are actively in a loop doing something else (such as fishing), you can at least fish for, let’s say 5 minutes, then check the weather and take action: either to stay and ignore the diademWeather() command since no desirable weather has been matched, or to move elsewhere if weather has changed by following the appropriate diademWeather() function.

A very basic scenario, assuming inside Diadem, a grid selected, all presets and lures available, would be something similar to

fishPreset("Diadem generic fishing")
bait(Diadem Red Balloon)
findfish()
fish(5)
diademWeather("Umbral Levin", 5, "Diadem Crane Fly", "Diadem powerful fishing")
diademWeather("Umbral Duststorm", 9, "Diadem Hoverworm", "Diadem precision fishing")
diademWeather("Umbral Tempest", 14, "Diadem Hoverworm", "Diadem precision fishing")
diademWeather("Umbral Flare", 20, "Diadem Crane Fly", "Diadem powerful fishing")
fish(10)
repeat(999)

While I don’t have access to the Miqo internals, the above doesn’t feel too complex to be fully incorporated into Miqo itself under the fishing tab, similar to a Squadron feature. Given the current situation the Devs find themselves into, leaving elements to be controlled by the users would be more than perfectly acceptable.

Thank you for all you do, and as always, please continue your best to stay alive and safe.
