Mission Runner Not Working

Ok, I have tried with several different stable revisions and also the latest revision but it seems the Courier mission runner part of Evebot is broken by the new patch.

It seems to have trouble recognizing dialogue on the new mission window and if I start the mission manually and then run Evebot, it will check for the cargo and warp to the destination system, but then it just sits at the stargate instead of warping to the destination station and completing the mission.

I hope Evebot will be updated soon to work with the new patch, I truly love this tool when it works. :)

I can't code my way out of a wet paper bag to save my own life, but I can and would help test if needed. Please let me know if I can be of assistance in testing to help get Evebot up to speed with the latest patch.

Hi all of you,
first things first : Great stuff (ISXEve and Evebot)

For a quick workaroud to get the Courier working go to core/obj_ship.iss and search for "1: Warping to bookmark" (line 1280 or so)

replace 2 lines below "DestinationBookmark:WarpTo" with

"DestinationBookmark.ToEntity:WarpTo"

But this will only work for bookmarks which will cast into things that are there, eg. Stations, the dungeons will not cast into an entity.

hope that helps.

also some of the courier missions seem to be wrongly listed as encounter types in the mission journal (I know, has nothing to do with the bot, but still...)

I don't know if the new patch today had anything to do with it, but ...

Hmmm, I am noticing just the opposite. I edited the script as instructed above and ran a mission ok, then the next mission I got was "Stop the Thief" which is a Lvl IV Encounter mission, for some reason, the courier bot accepted the mission even tho I have selected only 'Courer' on the mission bot tab in evebot.

Fortuneately, I can do Lvl IV combat missions too so it is time to dust off my Raven, hehe.

*Update* Wow, got warp scrambled and swarmed, lost that Raven. Ugh!*

first : sorry for your loss
second : you can edit the mission blacklist so the bot will never accept that mission again ;-)
