Thread: Instancebuddy - A Premium Dungeon Finder Bot

Instancebuddy

Latest Version: 3.0.1.188

A Dungeon Finder Bot. It queues, joins, follows the tank, leaves when dungeon is over, get back to grinding and requeue

How does Instancebuddy work ?

If you are using Dungeon Finder system for the first time, type "/lfd" or hit "i" in WoW and set your role. When all set, set HB to Instancebuddy from Bot Selection and hit Start !

Instancebuddy supports tanking just in a few dungeons. To see which dungeons are supported, go through Bot Settings -> Farming Mode -> Dungeon Selection

Features

• Instancebuddy now rolls for the loot ! It will automatically detect if the item that dropped is an upgrade or not and do the necessary rolling. Disable any looting addon you use.
• IB will queue for specific dungeons till level 80 while filtering dungeons that HB would fail (listed in post #3). It will reset dungeons every 12 minutes.
• At level 80 IB will queue for random heroics.
• You can queue as a group. The group leader will queue while others accepting role check.
• IB supports dual spec. If you queue as healer/dps and assigned as a dps while your spec is healing, IB will detect that and change your spec. (Your CC should also support that)
• IB supports corpse runs except for Icecrown.
• IB sends a message to party chat to notify party members while resting.
• IB cancels resting if the tank gets too far away.
• IB uses a special scripting system. Dungeon scripts are located under /scripts folder. Current special tags are: LastBoss, Entrance, UseObjects, TalkToNpcs, AreaSpells, JumpPoint. Check post #2 for explanation.
• IB allows the use of Objects (like doors, levers, portals).
• IB allows talking to NPCs for teleportation and other stuff.
• IB detects when the tank jumps from a cliff or such and make your toon jump.
• IB allows avoiding area spells.
• IB auto accepts shared quests.

Installation

• Instancebuddy comes bundled with HB. There is not a seperate download link

How to report a bug

You have to give as much detail as you can about how to reproduce the issue you are encountering and state which CC you are using.

You MUST attach a full log as an attachment to your report. Otherwise you will just be ignored.

For Navigator issues you encounter, you need to providethe mesh map (check navigator log for it 'Loaded mesh xxx'), the hotspot and a detailed description of the issue.

USE BUDDY BUGTRACKER FOR BUG REPORTS.
BUGS REPORTED IN THIS THREAD WILL NOT BE ANSWERED.

Known Bugs

• Rolling for loot might be buggy. It will often fail to evaluate correct scores for items. If you are not happy with it, disable rolling via Bot Settings. *It is HB causing wrong evaulations*
• Most of mid-level dungeons are not scripted yet. You may contribute with Entrance points, jump points and other tags seen below.
• DO NOT USE INSTANCEBUDDY UNATTENDED

Special notes for CC devs:

• Instancebuddy has it's own targeting code. Please disable any targeting code you have while Me.IsInInstance
• Instancebuddy runs Combat() portion of your CC. So if you have a check like IsPullCompleted please disable it while Me.IsInInstance.
• Instancebuddy handles movement only while out of combat. In combat movement is left to CCs since most of them have it already. Make sure you have a check for current target's distance for spell/ability ranges.
• Instancebuddy overrides RaFLeader to actual tank in the party. So you can mess with RaFLeader for specific buffing needs like keeping Earth Shield or Lifebloom up.
