I actually started running it, ironed out a few problems, but now (asside from needing to update the path files to stop running into walls, lol) have an issue with it CTD when it enters bazaar, last thing I noticed as I was monitoring its progress is that it targeted some named mob. It should not be targeting anyone/thing except Gearo and Steaon. Would someone kindly look at this and see what I missed, please.

there's always the chance that a "gearo" matches a longer, closer PC trader name. Perhaps you should try /target npc Gearo instead?

aChallenged1 · Post by **aChallenged1** » Fri Aug 13, 2004 12:17 pm

While that is possible, it should not have targeted anything at all, at that point. Unless of course I screwed up and the path file is screwed up.

Making a pure path run mac to test the pathing.

Thanks for the input, always appriciated.

This has all been worked out, posting completed version.

Mimatas · Post by **Mimatas** » Fri Aug 13, 2004 5:12 pm

I'm not anywhere I can test this... but my first step would be to /mqlog (not sure how to actually use it.. only heard about it) and insert echos at every step.. to narrow down where the CTD is happening.

You also may want to check up on the pathing macro you're using. I know advpath has been around for a while, and MQ has changed quite a bit since it was first written. Not that it doesn't work... but there's a good chance that, if it wasn't updated, it's broken.

This is no longer an issue, posting completed macro.

If worse comes to worse with Advpath, you could always use the move.inc at http://macroquest2.com/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=7207

Mimatas · Post by **Mimatas** » Fri Aug 13, 2004 5:35 pm

I found that the problem is /face based. Everytime /face is used it looks up and causes trouble with advpath's ability to move through doors and such. I've put it in as a bug and will look more into it. I'll see if I can find and figure out the /mqlog function.

maybe change all of the /face instances with /face nolook

I wonder if it's maybe the way MQ handles params compared to the way it used to? Just noticed how the /call PlayFunction has parenthasis around all the params, instead of just seperate.
