Still not loading and getting the same errors.
I donât know why but it doesnât switch villages.Could you help me?
Hi @Mark,
looking at this screenshot, it seems like there was a problem when transferring the new version of the app.
Can you download the app from https://botengine.blob.core.windows.net/blob-library/by-name/BotEngine.v2018-12-28.Mark.exe ?
How does the app window look like then?
Yes when I have the bot log I can help you.
What text is in the bot log when the bot failed to switch villages?
Ok I simply fixed it by adding few lines of code
It is doing better thnx

The error message looks like the game did remove the node in the html document between reading the node and the bots attempt to click on it. As far as I remember, the bot should pick the first report in the list.
I remember multiple possible scenarios in which the html node could disapear:
- The game bugs out and does not display the report anymore. Tribal Wars 2 does contain such a bug as described at Bug In Tribal Wars 2 Web App - Broken Report Display
- The game still displays the report, but it has removed and recreated the node in the meantime. (ElementHandle click method get Error: Node is detached from document ¡ Issue #3496 ¡ puppeteer/puppeteer ¡ GitHub)
In your log, I see that about half a minute passes when parsing the report list entries. In case the game recreates the html node in the meantime, we might be able to avoid the problem by making the parsing faster or by reading the first report node again.
@bdc, how does it look like when you configure the game to only display 25 reports in the list?
(The parsing step should only take about 1/4 of the time compared to the list with 100 reports, so maybe this will be fast enough)
Also, if you have not already, please load the newest version of the app from https://botengine.blob.core.windows.net/blob-library/by-name/BotEngine.v2018-12-27.exe
(The browser interface has changed since the last version and therefore the parsing step could be faster with version 2018-12-27)

Love your farm manager bot.
Is it possible to implement a âsaving fleetâ - to send resources to another village and/or spend resources⌠at a specific time.
Playing on INTERNATIONAL world, we have players farming other humans while we are asleep.
ok I will try that. I will let you know from the moment I have done it
started with new bot, and 25 reports per page, must say no issues with this startupâŚ
and indeeds works ALOT faster

Looks like handling of those error messages can be improved. Perhaps in this case they are better only written to the log file, as the bot continues operation anyway.
VIIR, i have an other problem going on.
Each time when the bot askes the browser to reload, it crashesâŚ
As long as the bot doesnt ask for a reload no problem it works great. but if it dares to ask for reload⌠it goes into fault.error.txt (6.9 KB)
and the popup is also annoyingm it happens on a frequent base
Could you take a look at it please?

hello VIIr,
i went back to the older bot, and runthat one on the new farnscript. That bot doesnt go into fault when the webbrowser reloadsâŚ
any reason why?
And the popup is also not hapening with the old bot
Thank you for the report @bdc, this was very helpful to track down the root cause.
It turned out that the connection between app and browser was closed after some time of inactivity. I implemented a new version of the app which prevents this.
You can download this new version here:
https://botengine.blob.core.windows.net/blob-library/by-name/BotEngine.v2019-01-05.exe
I also removed these popups in the new version linked above. The app now writes those error messages into a log file, which is created in the log directory when the app starts.
There were many changes between those two versions of the browser interface. There are several people working on these implementations and I am not familiar with all the changes.
In case you encounter any problems with version 2019-01-05, I will look into that.
ok i will test it with that one
Hello Viir,
Seems to working good⌠havent seen any problem yet
