Hello,
first, thanks for the good work at the botengine.
The last two days i test und probe with the mining bot, modded for the drone operation (drone defense function).
I am a ELM beginner, okay i start the last two days.
i found somethings that is not perfekt:
-
in the combat defense, the ship approach to the enemy, with a mining barge a terrible
Why?
The Mining Barge is very slow and is the hole time approach behind the enemy, i change it in that way, that the target lock range, increased to 25000 meters.
if the enemy not in that range, i change it to “EndDecissionPath Wait” in the else branch from “acquireLockedTargetForCombat” an wait that the NPC came to my range. -
heading to an astroid, the bot is the hole time “Approach” clicking, in my eyes is better to record the approach click, and send the bot in a wait loop. Sometimes if i join the Belt and NPC are in, the bot dont see the NPC until he reached the Astroid.
-
if the ship reached the target range, it will be usefull to stop the ship, but at the moment i didnt found the send command for shortcuts. in Eve is the shortcut to stop ship
-
i added a function for get the distanceinmeters as a value and show it in the bot message DescribeBranch one for debug one to have a better overview to find out if i am right.
some ideas to realize are for me hard, to think the new way around ELM for me.
I hope you have some hints for me to help to realize my ideas
what i added and change
distanceToTarget : OverviewWindowEntry -> Maybe Int
distanceToTarget =
.distanceInMeters >> Result.toMaybe
acquireLockedTargetForCombat overviewEntry =
let
compareDistance : Int
compareDistance = Maybe.withDefault 0 (overviewEntry |> distanceToTarget)
in
{- if overviewEntry |> overviewWindowEntryIsInCombatRange |> Maybe.withDefault False then -}
if compareDistance < 25000 then
DescribeBranch ("Overview entry is in range. Lock target. Target Distance :" ++ (overviewEntry |> distanceToTarget |> Maybe.map String.fromInt |> Maybe.withDefault "Unknown"))
(EndDecisionPath
).
Sitze immer noch da
