sorry if the answer to this has already been posted but I havent found anything on the subject that answers my query so Im going to ask here.
Ive spent a few days testing out the mapping and harvesting, and Im a bit confused as to how it works. I can see on the map interface on the screen that it can auto track your path, and I can see the option for Avoid and auto avoid, but how and where exactly am I supposed to use them.. Ill put forward a scenario..
I turn on ogre mapper
I turn on ogre harvest (at this point do I acually set it to run?? or just have it open.. coz if I set it to run it wont let me move to any new nodes, so what Ive been doing is just having it open while I do this first stage)
I start at my start point and give it a name using f2
I run from node to node and harvest anything in sight like I would normally do if I werent using a bot.
I come to a cliff and I know I dont want to go over it.. how do I let the bot know? If I press f3 does that show the whole cliff or just the point Im standing on? Do I now turn it to auto avoid and run up and down the edge of the cliff?.. does the bot know not to go over that line I make?
If I come up against a house, or big rock or tent etc that I know I wont be able to get through, how do I let the bot know its there? again do I just run around it with the auto avoid on?
If there is a crater like those in steamfont mountains, how do I make it use the path in and out and not try to get up the internal walls?
If I press the f3 button (avoid) does that avoid just that one little spot Im standing on at the time or is it a bigger area?
Sorry for the huge amount of questions.. once I understand how it treats the commands the rest will be easy, but at this point Im not exactly sure how they are supposed to work so nothing seems to be doing what I want it to. When I make a pathway she either runs straight past nodes I know she should be harvesting, or she runs into something and stops.
thanks for your patience with my noobiness

)..
Its a great program and I love it
PS.. I downloaded the everfrost ready made map from the forums and it works great through the bitterwind trench (thats all Ive tried so far) but she does keep getting stuck in the little camp in the middle.. hence my frustration with not knowing how to deal with that.
