Lol. As you’ve hopefully noticed, the bot is down until the devs can get to it.
But also, as you’ve hopefully noticed (please dear Gods I hope everyone has noticed) the Island nodes aren’t really like other gathering nodes. They’re coded more like a static targetable item like a housing Plaquard or an NPC.
There’s almost no chance Miqobot will be be able to AFK farm these not-really-nodes nodes anytime even remotely soon if ever.
WHEN the bot comes back up and IF (if ever) the bot is also coded to even recognize the zone, what could possibly be done then is we could make a very long and complicated Scenario to go to each spot where something would be and click on it twice to “gather” it and continue.
It would be pages and pages and pages of something like this:
// Player Must manually set
// their tool thingie to
// Gatherwaypoint(5)
key(num0, 1)
key(num0, 1)waypoint(6)
key(num0, 1)
key(num0, 1)waypoint(7)
key(num0, 1)
key(num0, 1)waypoint(8)
key(num0, 1)
key(num0, 1)and on and on and on and on for every single “node” waypoint. It would be a gigantic undertaking to create. I’ll take a shot at it when the bot comes back up and IF it can recognize the zone enough to create a Navigation Grid.
Something minor I noted when playing Island Sanctuary was how each node doesn’t respawn after a certain amount of time but rather after you’ve gathered a certain amount of other nodes. It’s for this reason that I believe I should be able to create simple scripts for island gathering via other programs such as AHK.

Whenever I start recording a macro, FFXIV no longer responds to keyboard commands while I’m recording.
You need to use the PHYSICAL “MR” Button ON the keyboard itself to record keystrokes while playing. Or else it will take ownership of the keyboard and you can not use it in game.

August 27, 2022 at 7:57 pm #38503I have an issue with this part /gaction “Duty Action I” <me> what do I do here? I says Duty not valid but it does go on and do what it is supposed to.
Add: /merror off
inside the macro before the action.August 28, 2022 at 7:27 pm #38514August 28, 2022 at 8:15 pm #38515I wound up taking that macro above and tying it in with another script to not-so-robustly loop around part of the island. It isn’t pretty though. The bottom line is… it doesn’t know which way is north. And camera angles throw it off. Looking forward to when the bot is updated, whenever that is 🙂
However, it was a lick-and-a-promise type script. When it works it is great. When it doesn’t, it is pretty bad. Not my proudest moment.

It was all keyboard presses and in-game macros. It has no brains for error control and has 1 “pixel read” to keep it going. If I learned one thing from making this… is I miss Miqobot. However, absence makes the heart grow fonder.
August 30, 2022 at 7:17 pm #38533Any change you can share your ghub files so that we could copy and paste them?
C:\Users\USERNAME\AppData\Local\LGHUBI do not have anything in that folder nor do I have anything in Roaming.

If you copy pasted the macro into the game, the quote symbols you pasted are not valid and will cause that error, you need to manually type out the macro in game with the quote characters.
