The issue I’m having with this is that it gets all the way through just fine- until it reaches the Scrip Exchange NPC and then, it initiates the dialogue that will open the exchange window, but then it scrolls down to select ‘Nothing’ and then, it just sort of selects the NPC a few times, as it goes through the ‘sending key: num#: delay: 1.00 sec’ bit and then it moves on to the next chapter in the Scenario without ever actually buying the tokens it’s supposed to… :/

I’m not sure how to fix this. I’m not savvy enough yet. Any assistance would be appreciated.

(4:52:24 AM) Well, you know, I don’t mind continuing it any time! 😉

EDIT: I just tried it again and it got the exchange open alright, but it missed the correct Token Category. I’m not sure what’s going on. :/

Make sure you’re not interacting with the game at all. Something as simple as moving your mouse can steal focus away from what it’s trying to do, and wind up causing an error. I just had it run through the entire scenario, and it worked fine for me including buying the token at the end.

I understand that most (all?) grids have been made by the community. Up to now, I’ve been mostly a “taker” and not a “provider.” All the grids I’ve tried making before have been pretty bad.

What are the best practices for making new grids? Specifically, things like efficiency while not looking too “bot-ish.”

I see some grids use a “beacon(?)” above a set of nodes, and then it spiders down into a circle of mount/foot lines around the area. Is that what most people do? Is there a better way? I wouldn’t mind making grids and providing them to the community, but I don’t want to provide hack-ish garbage either.

I’d just go with whatever’s most common imo. The beacon/start point thing does seem to be the most common atm, and assuming you find a good spot to put it then it shouldn’t look too bot-like. But it would be really weird to have it go to the beacon from one direction and then immediately turn around and have it go another direction, that’s the sure-fire sign of a bot. So do what you can to try to build redundancies into it so that it can go whichever direction it needs without doubling back on itself.

So you cant use the bot at all now, or just for new content?

I think your waypoints could use some work. Trying to load this right at the Aleport waypoint makes my character stutter step a lot when trying to find where to go. So unfortunately, this seems to be completely unusable 🙁

//Endoceras
teleportIf(Aleport)

goodWeather(Fog)
goodWeather(Clouds)
goodWeather(Wind)
skipBadWeather()
workUntil(04:00et)

grid(Feast of Famine)
waypoint(6)
randomWaypoint(9, 10, 11)
findFish(2.67)

fishPreset(super patience)
bait(Spoon Worm)
fish(40)

The 9, 10, 11 waypoints also aren’t at the right place for Isles of Umbra South Shore for Endoceras. Waypoints 4 and 5 seem to be better for it. 0, 1, and 2 connect to that one, so that would at least make sense.

EDIT: You also have the wrong bait for Intuition set for Takitaro and the Giant Takitaro (they’re reversed)…so that’s two of the steps in this scenario that need fixing, would highly recommend double-checking it all before using 🙁

Best thing I can suggest is to turn the game into Windows Mode and minimize it, rather than just leaving it open full screen in the background. if it’s minimized, i think you should be able to use your mouse and keyboard normally.

There was a post back in Dec that had the same issue and it was a plug in conflict.

For anybody running into this problem like I was and wondering about the solution, it’s the “YesAlready” plugin from Dalamud. It’s automatically hitting ‘Yes’ to extract materia, but so does Miqobot…so it winds up doing the button twice, which causes an error. So after 4 or 5 pieces of Materia, it errors out completely and shuts the bot down. So you’ll wanna disable that specific plugin while running Miqobot! (Or go into the options and uncheck the “MaterializeDialog” option in the “Bothers” menu of the plugin.)

There’s a post in the Index: Gathering Grids thread…haven’t tried it myself, but worth taking a look at!

Made a navigation grid for Botanist at The Great Work in Thavnair (Lv85 Mature Trees)

Originally made this for Palm Syrup, but can also be used for Coconut or Palm Log. Ran for 20 mins w/ no issues. Requires flying because I think that’s the fastest way to go about gathering anything, but can be modified by dragging the waypoints down to the ground.

Slot 2: Coconut
Slot 4: Palm Syrup
Slot 5: Fire Crystal
Slot 6: Palm Log

Tested the expert crafting on two of the recipes (that’s all I had yellow scrips for) and it worked perfectly. Didn’t crash, and I think it went out of its way to make use of Centered’s status correctly (but couldn’t tell to be honest.) Both of the recipes I had it craft went perfectly. One with 46 steps and 100% Quality, the other with 42 steps and only 5307 Quality (had really bad RNG)… But the solver worked!

[AsynchriaParticipant]

Yeah, lalibot has it right you can play sounds when the window isn’t active. I’ve had it on for years, very handy for alt-tabbing out of the game and a duty pops or something.

Remember that when they squish player stats, they’re going to squish enemy stats to compensate. SOME stuff will get harder to do unsync, but ideally it won’t be a large problem because if it was they’d have a riot on their hands.

Can a moderator remove Yuji’s link in the “Logging The Hours: Black Shroud IV” section? That leads to https://miqobot.com/forum/forums/topic/first-lv35-btn-oak-logs-grid/ which doesn’t have any downloadable .txt file at all (no grids or presets, just the text that says what the setup is)

Not sure if the attachment was deleted or what, but yeah…after 2 years it’s no longer a valid bit of info!

All right, we will see what we can do. However, please keep in mind that Accursed Hoards may spawn inside traps, therefore Pomanders of Sight are not the best choice of action. If your primary goal is to earn the achievement, then it’s much easier to accomplish with Pomanders of Safety.
Please refer to this post for detailed explanation:
Recommended method to earn “Of the Sixth Sense” achievement

I was not aware that chests could spawn inside of traps…so that’s definitely good to know, and I’ll definitely check out that other thread. Thank you very much!

EDIT: I would also like to echo kekvitirae’s suggestion for a higher plateau for red mage healing. At higher floors, you have to start spamming the heal button yourself, which can lead to you fighting Miqobot for actions and can cause some weirdness depending on what your keybindings are. (Obviously when you get to within the last 10% of possible floors you need to heal yourself every single time you take a hit period so it might be better to not have assist on at all, but that’s another discussion entirely)

Can I make a request to not have the trap guess locations in the 3D radar for POTD/HOH disappear from the screen if you use one of the pomanders to reveal exactly where they are? Am going for the ‘find 100 undiscovered horde’ achievement and if I use that pomander then I can’t try standing on the places where I know a trap COULD be but definitely isn’t because they got revealed. One of the pomanders leaves them on the 3d radar, the other completely removes them (apologies for not knowing the name of the right one, I’m away from my computer for the next few days)

[AsynchriaParticipant]

You’ll want to be a little careful using this, because all it’s doing is spamming the command over and over again. It’s not “smart” about what’s going on, it’s just repeating button presses.

I know of at least 1 person who was doing something similar to this (spamming 0 0 4 0 with keyboard software instead of this specific bot, but the end result is the same) all night, and then claimed they woke up to find most of their gil gone. Why? Because somebody transferred their house to that spot (beating them to the punch of buying it) and they put their retainer right on the edge of the property near the board that you have to click on, and kept putting items up for sale which the bot would then buy because it was spamming 0.
