EQoffline, bots and more..

[RCPD0715]

**Also, the bots used to work for level 85 as that is what my max level was on my server..but since the last 2 updates, I had to change my max level for my server back to 70, because above 70 the bots would simply not cast anything..

here comes another error...for some reason now when using bots, the mobs are vanishing upon death...no xp and even if the mob has loot its poofing...grr

I do add in item bonus' during the calculation, not sure why it isn't picking it up. I'll look at the calcs again.

I didn't add anything specific for level and casting. The spell tables come from the database, not sure if any changes happened there. Clerics use entry 1 but pet casters use entires in the 500's

I do know about this, but it is one of those "doesn't always happen" bugs that are much harder to find... still looking.

If you are using an existing database, 1108+ sources need database updates, check the changelog.txt

I fixed the spell interrupted issue with my Ranger so hopefully it fixes everyone elses interrupts too.

Bardbots have suddenly remembered how to play songs.

I am trying to compile the source and getting the following error:

make -C eqlaunch
make: *** eqlaunch: No such file or directory. Stop.
make: *** [all] Error 2

I have checked 1106 and the 1108 and there is no eqlaunch directory in either archive.

Grab eqlaunch from the downloads section or CVS. The bots code doesn't touch it, so you can use stock EQEmu code.

Isn't zone the only thing you need to compile from the bot code?

I think sharedmem is also required, not positive about world. I add EQBOTS to all 3 just to be sure.
