EQ2Navigation help

Trying to use this in conjunction with crafting to do the daily Mara group crafting quests solo. So...

Currently I am on the Clockwork Rescue quest in Klakanon. I used Eq2NavCreator -auto -PtoP to create a path from each workstation, using F2 to label each one Forge 1, Chemistry Table 1, etc. I then start up craft with the debug option, and it complains about not finding a bunch of points that I dont need, but it does find the workstation points I created.

However, when I begin crafting with my toon standing right next to the workstation for the first queued recipe, the bot runs him off the platform. Clearly I am misunderstanding how this works. I realize this was intended to support writs, but I was hoping the bot would just ignore the missing writ-related points and when it needs to craft a recipe, would just position my toon in front of the required workstation per my navigation path.

Any help would be appreciated.

Make all those other points that you don't need. Because you need them.

I am not doing writs, so not sure what to do with them. Can you be more explicit? I guess the real question here is: can I use the craft bot to do all the daily Mara group quest recipes automatically? If so, how do I set up the "unneeded" waypoints the craft bot is looking for?

The only way I could do them in the past is to do the combines in an order that uses LOS pathing to move between stations.

I haven't done them in awhile, but yes you can do them. The following is the list of points craft looks for, just make point for all of them. For the multiple crafting tables, you can make the three named points at the same time in the same spot. As for the RushOrder, WorkOrder, Broker and Wholesaler , just put them in somewhere, it doesn't matter where as long as they are in there.

Again, I don't do the mara writs anymore, so if something has changed that makes this not work then I'm making you jump through hoops for nothing, but this is how I set my path files up.

You don't have nearly enough named navigation points for the craft bot to work. Here's a list of the nav points you are going to need. And yes, you need them all.

Ok, I have carefully read every post in the EQ2 navigation thread, tried all the various suggestions, and still I cannot get my toon to follow the created path. I even tried using the included example qeynos tradeskill path (which I assume is for the Ironforge tradeskill instance in NQ) that comes with the bot to no avail. My toon is a brawler (which btw has an inherent 5% movement speed enhancement) and I am running Windows 7 64 bit. Here is what I have noticed:

1) The nav path creator instructions say the default region is spheres, and that is the preference, but for me, the default region is box. The stock path examples I have appear to use the box region as well. I have tried setting the region to sphere, but it doesn't help. I thought the size of the region might be a problem, but there appears to be no way to change the size of the box short of editing the code.

2) When I run the CraftPathTester script in the qeynos tradeskill instance after zoning in, my toon does turn around and face the Broker, then it turns around and faces the Rush Order npc. But then, when the script requests moving to Chemistry Table 1, it goes haywire - running backwards, bouncing into walls, changing direction randomly, etc. This is exactly what I see on the paths I create as well. I have tried toggling my walk/run setting, but the erratic behavior results in either mode. I also verified that my movement keys are set correctly.

So if anyone has any additional wisdom about what I need to do to make this work, I would greatly appreciate hearing it.

Thanks
