Handling game errors and script errors

[Nikolaj]

Handling errors in script operation

While the script is running, some errors may occur, for example, the menu has not loaded and the bot is trying to find a line, in which case the script will end with an error.
Also, the script will break if it doesn't find the line you need, for example, you want the bot to take a blue bottle from the warehouse, but it's not there, in which case the script will exit and throw an error.
For such cases, the bot provides the following event handlers
the line below will process a whole block of keystrokes and in case of an error, the bot will proceed to executing the script from line 20:. You can write the name of the event handler arbitrarily.

add_action_speak=error={"text":["^event_keypress_error"], "command":["go_to_line", 20]}the line below will process the error point by point; in this example, the error may occur on line 20, in which case the bot will proceed to executing the script from line 10.

Code Select Expand

add_action_speak=k_error1={"text":["^event_keypress_error_20"], "command": ["go_to_line", 10]}the line below will work if the condition is met and there is no error, so the bot will execute the script from line 32.

Code Select Expand

add_action_speak=k_ok={"text":["^event_keypress_ok"], "command":["go_to_line", 32]}the line below will work if the condition is met on line 29, so the bot will proceed to executing the script from line 32.

Code Select Expand

add_action_speak=k_ok1={"text":["^event_keypress_ok_29"], "command":["go_to_line", 32]}the line below allows you to ignore one-time errors in the function keypress=keyname=text
skip_keypress_error
that is, if you work with the menu, you need to write ignore the skip_keypress_error error before each key press keypress=keyname. errors will be handled using event handlers.

For greater clarity, I will publish an example of a script that will put the items you need into a warehouse.
When the script does not find the specified items in your bag, it will simply exit.
This script is universal and works the same with the English and Spanish game interface.

Below is a variable in which you specify a list of items that the bot will automatically put into the warehouse

Code Select Expand

var=items=(Goblin|Gnome|Dark elf|Dwarf)below you need to indicate the first item in your bag, which the game speaks when the menu for selecting items to put in the warehouse opens.

Code Select Expand

var=firstitem=^\d+\sArnebia
enable_restart
open_game_windowdisable periodic pressing of the Escape key so that the bot does not close the menu.

Code Select Expand

disable_key_escset the target search speed, in our case it is npc (Warehouse)

Code Select Expand

search_object_timeout=0.1Below we create an event handler; if an error occurs while the script is running, the bot will execute the script from line 26.

Code Select Expand

add_action_speak=error={"text":["^event_keypress_error"], "command":["go_to_line", 26]}skip errors when pressing keypress

Code Select Expand

skip_keypress_error
enable_search_object=Almacén espaciotemporal|Ansible Space-Time Storehouse=10
keypress=enterWe are waiting for the warehouse menu to open

Code Select Expand

waitspeak=Almacén de objetos|item storagean error may occur on the line below, we have handled this above. this script can be processed point by point. if there is an error on the line below, it is better to run the script again. in the current example the script will simply exit. I didn't foresee this when I wrote this script.

Code Select Expand

keypress=s=Depositar objetos|deposit item
timewait=0.01open the list of items that can be put into storage

Code Select Expand

keypress=enterwe wait for the game to say the name of the first item in our bag

Code Select Expand

waitspeak=%firstitem%skip the error

Code Select Expand

skip_keypress_errorWe are looking for objects whose names we indicated in the variable. if the bot does not find them, it will consider that all items have been placed in the warehouse and will complete its work. Please note that I put the digital value in parentheses; I will use this value further in the variable.

Code Select Expand

keypress=w=(\d+).*?%items%
timewait=0.01
keypress=enter
timewait=1A field has opened for entering the number of items, I write the value using the variable that I wrote about above.

Code Select Expand

write=~~1
timewait=0.05
keypress=enterWe are waiting for a success message.

Code Select Expand

waitspeak=^Depositado|depositedwe start the cycle again and add items until we put everything that was specified in the variable at the beginning of the script.

Code Select Expand

go_to_line=10Below is line 26, which the script will go to if it receives an error.

Code Select Expand

sleep=1
break

Handling game errors

The game also has bugs, when you press keys the character does not react, and you just hear the names of the keys that you press.
to handle this, the bot has the enable_key_esc function
It is enabled by default, to work with the game menu, you need to disable it using the function

Code Select Expand

disable_key_escDon't forget to turn it on if, for example, after working with the menu your character needs to go somewhere.
The bot periodically briefly presses the Escape key. this way the game will close and the bot will restart it and continue the script.

Also sometimes the game may freeze for unknown reasons, your character may move, but when you press the "R" key, you will not get the character's health status..
There is a function to handle this error

Code Select Expand

no_regen_data=int numberif after number times it is not possible to get hp/mp indicators. then we consider that the game is frozen and end the process with the game
the default value is 5. If the bot does not receive a health value 5 times, the game will be restarted.

You can report bugs found in the bot by sending the following command in the chat window:
