sloot4

I have started a new project sloot4 based on the sloots that have gone before.

From what I can tell sloot3 looks to be unmaintained. I was having trouble getting it to work (the setup gui would load but wouldn't save certain config values which prevented sloot3 from working properly.) My troubles were encountered on Avalon, but were confirmed by a few StormFront users as well.

The first version of this new branch is up on the in game repo.

v1.00
-Solved issues with setup gtk gui
-Added success message for a special skinning weapon and scabbard.

Changes planned:
-Fix remaining gtk errors that appear when saving. Believed to be causing some issues with savings a portion of the settings. (suggested by: me)
-Update lockpick services to skip putting the box on the counter and remove wait in line option since it isn't necessary any longer. (suggested by: Ohr)
-Move loot exclusion list from sloot2 to sloot4 (suggested by: Ohr)
-Add option to appraise items before selling to pawnshop holding back if items are above a threshold moving items to specific container when held back (suggested by: me)
-Allow a list of containers to be specified from which all items, regardless of type, are sold or dropped. (suggested by: me)

If anyone has further changes they'd like to see or things they believe to be bugs please feel free to post. If the change seems to have wide value I will consider making it. If you have a request that is of a more personal nature in terms of value pm me and we can discuss.

I like the exclusion list moving over, I miss it.

if it's not too much work, remove the putting the box on the counter line, it's not needed anymore, other then that sloot4 seem to work much better over sloot3. Keep up the good work Ptolemais and Thanks again!!

Ohr.

oh and what be truly awesome is if you can update it so that any end user can easily modify the script to easily handle some of the special container messages.

How about an exclusion list where you can exclude looted items from you picking them up? Such as urglaes fangs, pyrothags clubs or whatever you don't want to grab.

Think that's the List he is trying to move over from sloot2.

Aye.

Ohh you're right .. my bad

How about along with the container you sell or drop every item you have a container which nothing is sold or dropped from?

thanks for this, looking forward to trying out sloot4

How about an option to stash your boxes in your locker, for those of us who'd like to bring them to PC locksmiths?

Sounds like a good idea.

Guessing I'd need a variable option to turn this on, and another to indicate the room number of the locker to deposit in. The feature wouldn't be that hard to write, but handling all the possible error scenarios would be more difficult. i.e. locker room is occupied, locker is full, locker is blocked by debt. I'll have to look and see if there is a script already written to automate using lockers and if so it would make the whole thing easier. If there isn't I might write a locker manager script to encapsulate those functionalities and then just use it with sloot4.

Not a bad idea. Something along the lines of "Junk containers" and "Protected Containers". Will add it to my hit list.

There is a jloot3 in the repo I've been using vs sloot2/sloot3. Maybe start with it as it seems to be more the most feature complete sloot derivative already on the repo?

I've only really used sloot2 so forgive me if this is already in sloot3, but a few things come to mind:

1) Sloot sell returns you to the room you started in. An option to set which room you end up in instead would be nice.
2) If your cloak is full and you are holding a container in your right hand, sloot2 gets a bit borked and doesn't seem to know quite what to do with itself.
3) Picking up boxes it throws away if it gets a "there's something valuable" message, i.e something that the script doesn't recognize as loot but might be worthwhile and requires player judgement?
4) A way to keep gems over X value for deeds or various other purposes.

How about instead of selling junk Jewelery to the pawnshop, it runs to the gem shop for the extra little bump.

Dumb question: I havent downloaded or ever used Sloot. What does it do?

@Jace, don't have to sell jewelry at all. I always appraise it and then check for enhancives if its 35k+. I sell at the gemshop manually.

@Chilango2
3) Just have it dump boxes in your container before trashing them. It's not that hard to throw away that chipped brick later.
4) Isn't it easier just to add "uncut" or another pattern to your sell exceptions?

I dont know how many people would use this.

Some mobs drop items that sloot3 automatically ignores such as the default weapon/armor. Some of those could be worth a decent amount. Would it be possible to have an include list, where if one of those items drop sloot will consider it normal loot and pick it up?

Works a lot like ;loot, except a better setup system and it's a lot more discriminatory. Also automatically sells the loot you pick up. ;loot just automatically loots and skins your kills. Sloot does the same thing but also sorts your loot according to your setup settings.

There was another app on the repo that I used to use for gem sales aptly named ;orbappraise... I'd love to see this functionality built into Sloot4... basically, assign a silver threshold, and then it will separate out those higher tier gems for sale at a later time. Great for bards.

You know... while we're compiling wishlists.

Need some help with ammo. When firing at non-corporeal or any situation where "the arrow is out of reach" after firing, sloot waits a few seconds then proceeds to get each individual arrow and bundles them. It works...except it always leave one arrow behind!

I've tried editing numerous lines but got nothing...I am new to the code and still learning. Appreciate any help. Thanks!

I would love to see this account for skinning creatures that take two hands open to skin, and stow the item when it's retrieved. Such as dwellers and krynches. It also locks up when using auto bundling bags and such.

I'm actually working out some fixes for that myself - Tillmen just updated the data objects for me, which solved one minor issue. Once I work out the best way to deal with the variations of the bundling bags, I'll post the changes up here.

On another note - there's an extraneous line in the locksmith routine that I comment out everytime. There's absolutely no need anymore to try to put the box on the table/counter/ect. At least there isn't a need in plat. Everytime it runs that it simply says "you cannot put your XXX on the YYY" and continues with the script.

I have a derp question. I won an unlocked longcoat at rtfc and it obviously has multiple compartments. IE: small pocket, large pocket, weapon strap. get_item is unable to store the #. Has anyone been able to overcome this?

You grab a faded scroll from a small pocket inside your black longcoat.

Sloot proper would work with it

Spiffy...
on Sloot proper...

I'm getting the following error:

Code:

--- Lich: sloot active. [sloot]>get twisted dagger from #45304912 You unsheathe the twisted vultite dagger from one of the narrow scabbards along the side of your burlap sack. > [sloot: ** failed to find twisted dagger in burlap sack] [sloot]>skin #45349377 You skinned the hisskra warrior, yielding a hisskra skin. > [sloot: failed to put twisted dagger in burlap sack] [sloot]>search #45349377

Incidentally, the recent changes to sloot4 have actually fixed it so it will work with the skinning bags now

sloot is supposed to be line agnostic. Let me look real fast like.

The problem is the way the dagger is named. If you replaced "twisted dagger" with just "dagger" it would work properly. You can look at line 768 if your curious why sloot works like this. I'll try and think up a workaround.

Update sloot. Might possibly could be but probably not fixed.

An issue I've seen with sloot is that when I start, lets say in the Graveyard, it runs me to town, then back to the graveyard, then back to town, then back to the graveyard. I apologize if this has already been addressed/asked. I just downloaded sloot4 to see if that is something fixed.

Hard to tell without a log.

Honestly, the only reason I could possibly see this happening - is if you're using ';sloot sell' when trying to use it for looting. But as spiffy said, can't do much without a log.

Is there a way to capture a log or do you just want everything that happened once ;sloot sell was engaged? *NOTE-It says sloot3 but I had to rename it so it would be found when I was looting with ;bigshot... but it really is ;sloot4. It looks like each time it needs to do something it resets back to the starting position. It goes to town to get silvers, then back to the Graveyard, then back to town to do the boxes, then back to Graveyard...

I'd also second the motion to get it to stop putting boxes on the counter. Thanks!

Code:

--- Lich: sloot3 active. > --- Lich: go2 active. [go2: ETA: 0:00:08 (30 rooms to move through)] [go2]>out [Graveyard] You pause inside the gates to survey the eerie scene. A magnificently crafted granite crypt to the north inspires wonder and loathing. The carvings on the facade are horrific, detailing the onslaughts of the Unlife throughout the chaotic history of Elanthia. A gravel path wraps around the structure, while thorny brambles growing among the tombstones deter you from leaving the paved route. Obvious paths: northeast, northwest > [go2]>go gate [Graveyard] A massive bronze gate spans the path, blocking the way north. On either side are high stone walls surmounted with jagged rocks. Now green and pitted, the gate is still locked shut by a rusted chain fastened with an ancient padlock. A cast likeness of the goddess Lorminstra, Keeper of the Gates of Oblivion, her Staff of Doom in hand, and a grotesque statue of the Empress Gosaena are the main motifs of the elaborately decorated portal. You also see a dirt path. Obvious paths: none > [go2]>go path [go2]>go trail [Graveyard] The trees part to reveal a trodden dirt path. Along its edges grow scraggly clumps of creeping dirge-vaon vines. The scant leaves on the few sickly trees that support the vines seem to tremble in some unfelt and disquieting breeze. A narrow trail leads southwest. Obvious paths: none > [go2]>south [Graveyard] Through the dense forest, you can barely make out an overgrown trail that leads northeast up a gentle slope. As the slope rises and levels off, the foliage thins out, changing in hue from deep forest shades and refreshing greens to sere browns and dull, wilted yellows. Obvious paths: south > [go2]>south [Lower Trollfang, Forest] The trees are older and higher here, and their leaves more densely intertwined, lending a somewhat gloomy atmosphere to an otherwise pleasant forest.

To the east the trees become larger and more numerous, while to the west a faint trail leads back to the walls of Wehnimer's Landing. You also see a black iron gate. Obvious paths: east > [go2]>south [Wehnimer's, Exterior] Thick brambles grow high upon the walls of this, the east, side of Wehnimer's Landing. Small pieces of cloth (and flesh) still cling to the sharp thorns of these bushes, left behind by those foolish enough to think that they could gain access to the walled town by climbing the prickly vines. You also see an obscure trail. Obvious paths: north, south > [go2]>southwest [go2]>west [Wehnimer's, Exterior] You are feeling a bit uneasy as you walk around this part of the outer wall. Glancing up, you notice the reason for this apprehension. Several of the town militia are staring down at you from their guard posts high on the walls of the barricade. Though you see no weapons, you are quite sure that each guard has one handy and is well versed in its use. Obvious paths: north, southwest > [Wehnimer's, Exterior] This open field stretches from the southeast corner of Wehnimer's Landing. From here, a faint path can be seen heading to the northeast and to the west as it follows the high walls of the fortified town. Obvious paths: northeast, west > [go2]>go bridge [go2]>west [Wehnimer's, Exterior] You stand below the top bank of the eastern shore of the Locksmehr River. From here you have a good view of the many merchant barges and fishing boats that move along the river. Some move towards the Landing to exchange their goods for silver, while others are working their way upstream to gather new cargo. You also see a sturdy bridge, a large metal-topped barrier arcing over most of the area and a wooden sign. Obvious paths: east, south > [go2]>west [Wehnimer's, Exterior] You are standing on the western shore of the Locksmehr river. From here you can see the southern water entrance to the town of Wehnimer's Landing. It is through this entrance that the boats returning from their upstream sojourns to the south have access to the town. A rough trail descends a rocky slope toward a stand of willow trees. You also see a wooden sign and a sturdy bridge. Obvious paths: west > [Wehnimer's, Exterior] Through a crack in the wooden palisade to the north, you can see the bustling traffic of Wehnimer. It is a stark contrast to the open path that you walk. Obvious paths: east, west > [go2]>northwest [Wehnimer's, Exterior] [go2]>north The dirt path bends around the southwest corner of the landing. Far to the east, you can see a thin blue line that must be the river. You also see a heap of splintered timbers and torn hide, a grey silk ribbon and a rolton skeleton. Obvious paths: east, northwest > [Wehnimer's, Exterior] A backdrop of rot and death expand to the south, where lush grasslands have been replaced by cracked grey rock, emaciated plant life and thick smog. Scattered about the dead lands are the putrid remains of roltons, flies swarming around their bodies. You also see a rotted wooden signpost. Obvious paths: north, southeast, southwest > [go2]>north [Wehnimer's, Exterior] To the southwest, the immense grasslands have begun to fade, replaced by twisted brown weeds and rotting undergrowth. To the northwest, once mighty pine trees have become bent with decomposition, their skeletal branches barren and gnarled. Obvious paths: north, south > [go2]>north [Wehnimer's, Exterior] To the west, the landscape has grown dark and broken, where a once thick forest has withered into a wasteland of dead trees and brown foliage. Pale wisps of fog slowly snake through the gnarled trees. You also see a weathered canvas tent. Obvious paths: north, south > [go2]>north [go2]>north [Wehnimer's, Exterior] The muted sounds of loud bartering from within Wehnimer's Landing, and the lonely calls of a pair of mated fenvaoks high up in the air vie for your attention as you march along the outer western edge of the town. You also see a tall wooden archery tower and a large wooden gate. Obvious paths: north, south > [go2]>go path [Wehnimer's, Exterior] As you progress on this north-south path, the dark forest to the west catches your eye. A little forbidding in its primeval appearance, it is sure to offer a good source of small-game hunting. You also see a short sword and a tall wooden archery tower. Obvious paths: north, south, west > [Wehnimer's, Exterior] You are standing at the northwest corner of the Landing. The path, which bends to the northeast as it moves along this section of the western wall of the fortified trading post. To the west can be seen a dark forest while to the south can be seen a rolling plain of high grasses. You also see a tall wooden archery tower and a cobblestoned trail leading to a wooded glade. Obvious paths: northeast, south, west > [Wehnimer's, Outside Gate] [go2]>go gates Citizens, merchants and assorted dregs of society jostle against you before the great wooden gates of Wehnimer's Landing. Harried guards and militiamen try to keep the chaos to a minimum, but it is hard to keep track of those entering, let alone leaving, this large trading post. A dirt path encircling the wooden palisade of the town leads east and southwest. Nailed prominently to the wooden wall beside the gate is a sign you really should read. You also see a tall wooden archery tower and the Wayside inn. Obvious paths: north, east, southwest, northwest > [go2]>south [Wehnimer's, Land's End Rd.] Vigilant guardsmen scrutinize the citizens and travelers arriving and departing through the wide gateway spanning the land route into Wehnimer's Landing. The frenetic pace of the city to the south is a far cry from the deceptive calm of the wilds of Elanith outside. Two daunting towers survey the countryside and protect the town, flanking the road to the east and west. You also see a wooden barrel. Obvious paths: south > [go2]>west [go2]>south [Wehnimer's, North Ring Rd.] The cobbled road girds the town along the inner side of the northern palisade. Just to the north stand the twin sentinels of the gate's guardtowers. Guardsmen come and go through the main gates, keeping a close eye on the people of all races who move to and fro. Opposite the gates, you see the shop of Dakris the Furrier. Obvious paths: north, east, west > [Wehnimer's, North Ring Rd.] The road turns gradually at this point as it forms the northwest corner of the city. The main path curves along the north and west walls, and another leads south between the buildings. The massive oak and modwir logs of the city palisade tower overhead. You also see a brightly lit small painted wagon. [go2]>south Obvious paths: east, south, southwest > [Wehnimer's, Talon St.] The street runs between the northern palisade and the central square to the south and east. The traffic is varied here, as shoppers, traders, travelers and merchants mix with the ever-present and watchful militiamen. The pristine walls of the Stone Baths occupy nearly the entire block. Obvious paths: north, south > [go2]>south [go2]>go bank [Town Square, Northwest] This corner of the square is lively and hectic. A number of representatives of the Landing's population, including several elven loggers and a party of rough-looking dwarves, loiter around the door of the Raging Thrak Inn, where the rowdy cheers of patrons and voices raised in songs of many sorts, from snatches of heroic ballads to blushingly bawdy tunes, beckon you to enter. You also see a sculpted granite statue. Obvious paths: north, east, southeast, south > [Town Square, West] Here in the midst of the town stretches the cobblestoned main bazaar, its serpentine lanes abuzz with traders bartering, bickering, and hawking their wares. The freewheeling vendors in the bazaar provide a lively alternative to the somewhat stodgier merchants whose shops border the square. The gilded but peeling stone facade of the First Elanith Bank dominates this side of the square. Obvious paths: north, east, south, west > [go2]>go arch [First Elanith Bank, Lobby] An ancient gnoll keeps a watchful, though nervous, eye over the people visiting Wehnimer's Landing's main bank, the First Elanith Secure Stronghold. Large, dirty windows allow little air to disturb the layers of dust on the threadbare carpet. The few flickering candles around the room add virtually no light. A broken gate from a teller's window sits in the corner. You also see a low arch. Obvious exits: out > [First Elanith Bank, Teller] Most of the teller windows that line this room are missing the gates and gratings that once secured them. Impatient clients stand at one of the two intact windows, waiting to get the attention of the tellers on the other side. You also see the Eyeoh disk, a banking assistant, a low arch and a large sign.

Obvious paths: north, east, south, west > [Wehnimer's, Winter St.] [go2]>south A steady stream of shoppers and traders flows through this avenue. On the west side of the road is the grocer's shop, where provisions, from the humblest sack of flour to the rarest varieties of Gnollish mushrooms, can be bought. Obvious paths: east, west > [Wehnimer's, West Ring Rd.] The lane to the east leads into the heart of town and the main square. The back wall of the grocer's shop borders the road, its wide door surrounded by piles of rough gunny sacks and stacks of wooden crates, some empty, others still to be unpacked. Obvious paths: north, east, south > [Wehnimer's, West Ring Rd.] Glistening black veins run along the ground, tearing up the cobblestone road. The stench of death and decay hang like a thick cloud.

Obvious paths: northeast, northwest > [go2]>go crypt [Graveyard, Crypt] The entry foyer to this enormous granite crypt is stark, adorned only with grisly friezes sculpted in low relief into the walls. Bands of bluish-green ahnver are inlaid into the stone in thin strips just below the ceiling throughout the entire structure, bathing the rooms in a subtle light. A shadowy arch curves overhead and leads deeper into the inner sanctum of the sepulcher. You also see a cracked urn and an open black marble ossuary.

Obvious paths: northeast, northwest > [go2]>go gate [Graveyard] A massive bronze gate spans the path, blocking the way north. On either side are high stone walls surmounted with jagged rocks. Now green and pitted, the gate is still locked shut by a rusted chain fastened with an ancient padlock. A cast likeness of the goddess Lorminstra, Keeper of the Gates of Oblivion, her Staff of Doom in hand, and a grotesque statue of the Empress Gosaena are the main motifs of the elaborately decorated portal. You also see a grumpy lake spirit that is flying around and a dirt path. Obvious paths: none > [go2]>go path [go2]>go trail [Graveyard] The trees part to reveal a trodden dirt path. Along its edges grow scraggly clumps of creeping dirge-vaon vines. The scant leaves on the few sickly trees that support the vines seem to tremble in some unfelt and disquieting breeze. A narrow trail leads southwest. Obvious paths: none > [go2]>south [Graveyard] Through the dense forest, you can barely make out an overgrown trail that leads northeast up a gentle slope. As the slope rises and levels off, the foliage thins out, changing in hue from deep forest shades and refreshing greens to sere browns and dull, wilted yellows.

Obvious paths: east, southeast, west > [Lower Trollfang, Clearing] This small grassy clearing is dotted with occasional low bushes and young trees. To the east the trees become larger and more numerous, while to the west a faint trail leads back to the walls of Wehnimer's Landing. You also see a black iron gate. Obvious paths: east > [go2]>south [Wehnimer's, Exterior] [go2]>southwest Thick brambles grow high upon the walls of this, the east, side of Wehnimer's Landing. Small pieces of cloth (and flesh) still cling to the sharp thorns of these bushes, left behind by those foolish enough to think that they could gain access to the walled town by climbing the prickly vines. You also see an obscure trail. Obvious paths: north, south > [Wehnimer's, Exterior] You are feeling a bit uneasy as you walk around this part of the outer wall. Glancing up, you notice the reason for this apprehension. Several of the town militia are staring down at you from their guard posts high on the walls of the barricade. Though you see no weapons, you are quite sure that each guard has one handy and is well versed in its use. Obvious paths: north, southwest > [go2]>west [go2]>go bridge [Wehnimer's, Exterior] This open field stretches from the southeast corner of Wehnimer's Landing. From here, a faint path can be seen heading to the northeast and to the west as it follows the high walls of the fortified town. Obvious paths: northeast, west > [Wehnimer's, Exterior] You stand below the top bank of the eastern shore of the Locksmehr River. From here you have a good view of the many merchant barges and fishing boats that move along the river. Some move towards the Landing to exchange their goods for silver, while others are working their way upstream to gather new cargo. You also see a sturdy bridge, a large metal-topped barrier arcing over most of the area and a wooden sign. [go2]>west Obvious paths: east, south > A grumpy lake spirit floats in, following you. > [Wehnimer's, Exterior] You are standing on the western shore of the Locksmehr river. From here you can see the southern water entrance to the town of Wehnimer's Landing. It is through this entrance that the boats returning from their upstream sojourns to the south have access to the town. A rough trail descends a rocky slope toward a stand of willow trees. You also see a wooden sign and a sturdy bridge. Obvious paths: west > [Wehnimer's, Exterior] Through a crack in the wooden palisade to the north, you can see the bustling traffic of Wehnimer. It is a stark contrast to the open path that you walk. Obvious paths: east, west > [go2]>west [go2]>northwest [Wehnimer's, Exterior] The dirt path bends around the southwest corner of the landing. Far to the east, you can see a thin blue line that must be the river. You also see a heap of splintered timbers and torn hide, a grey silk ribbon and a rolton skeleton. Obvious paths: east, northwest > [go2]>north [Wehnimer's, Exterior] A backdrop of rot and death expand to the south, where lush grasslands have been replaced by cracked grey rock, emaciated plant life and thick smog. Scattered about the dead lands are the putrid remains of roltons, flies swarming around their bodies. You also see a rotted wooden signpost. Obvious paths: north, southeast, southwest > [go2]>north [go2]>north [Wehnimer's, Exterior] To the southwest, the immense grasslands have begun to fade, replaced by twisted brown weeds and rotting undergrowth. To the northwest, once mighty pine trees have become bent with decomposition, their skeletal branches barren and gnarled. Obvious paths: north, south > [Wehnimer's, Exterior] To the west, the landscape has grown dark and broken, where a once thick forest has withered into a wasteland of dead trees and brown foliage. Pale wisps of fog slowly snake through the gnarled trees. You also see a rolton and a weathered canvas tent. Obvious paths: north, south > [go2]>north [Wehnimer's, Exterior] The muted sounds of loud bartering from within Wehnimer's Landing, and the lonely calls of a pair of mated fenvaoks high up in the air vie for your attention as you march along the outer western edge of the town. You also see a tall wooden archery tower and a large wooden gate. Obvious paths: north, south > [go2]>north [Wehnimer's, Exterior] [go2]>go path As you progress on this north-south path, the dark forest to the west catches your eye. A little forbidding in its primeval appearance, it is sure to offer a good source of small-game hunting. You also see a short sword and a tall wooden archery tower.

Obvious paths: northeast, south, west > [go2]>south [Wehnimer's, Outside Gate] Citizens, merchants and assorted dregs of society jostle against you before the great wooden gates of Wehnimer's Landing. Harried guards and militiamen try to keep the chaos to a minimum, but it is hard to keep track of those entering, let alone leaving, this large trading post. A dirt path encircling the wooden palisade of the town leads east and southwest. Nailed prominently to the wooden wall beside the gate is a sign you really should read. You also see a tall wooden archery tower and the Wayside inn. Obvious paths: north, east, southwest, northwest > [Wehnimer's, Land's End Rd.] Vigilant guardsmen scrutinize the citizens and travelers arriving and departing through the wide gateway spanning the land route into Wehnimer's Landing. The frenetic pace of the city to the south is a far cry from the deceptive calm of the wilds of Elanith outside. Two daunting towers survey the countryside and protect the town, flanking the road to the east and west. You also see a wooden barrel. Obvious paths: south > [go2]>east [go2]>east [Wehnimer's, North Ring Rd.] The cobbled road girds the town along the inner side of the northern palisade. Just to the north stand the twin sentinels of the gate's guardtowers. Guardsmen come and go through the main gates, keeping a close eye on the people of all races who move to and fro. Opposite the gates, you see the shop of Dakris the Furrier. Obvious paths: north, east, west > [Wehnimer's, North Ring Rd.] Guards and militiamen pass by, moving between the barracks and the guard towers at either end of the north road. The broad cobblestoned way proceeds east and west, hugging the inside of the northern wall. A varied mix of citizens and visitors, including wealthy merchants and their wives, grizzled-looking trappers with freshly-cured pelts slung over their shoulders, and many others who have come to seek their fortunes in Wehnimer's Landing, walk among the ever-vigilant guardsmen. You also see a squalid canvas pavilion. Obvious paths: east, west > [Wehnimer's, North Ring Rd.] [go2]>east [go2]>south Worn and uneven paving stones broken by deep ruts cover the road here, making for treacherous footing. A chorus of sounds emanates from the south and west, as the hum of the bazaar melds with the cries of the traders and hawkers and the singsong of vendors and peddlers. You also see a red-bricked pathway. Obvious paths: east, west > [Wehnimer's, North Ring Rd.] North Ring Road intersects here with a cobbled street of modest dimensions that opens up to the south, where traffic becomes markedly more dense along the routes to the main square. Towards the east, the guardtowers at the river gates can be seen in the distance. You also see a shaggy mutt, a human militia pikeman and a cobblestone path. Obvious paths: east, south, west > [go2]>south [Wehnimer's, The Mews] [go2]>east This narrow lane runs north to south, shaded by the narrow, unadorned buildings that loom on both sides of the rough paving stones. The clatter of wagon wheels on cobbled streets and the jangling of iron-fitted harnesses echoes from the south, along with a scent of leather and livestock. Obvious paths: north, south > [go2]>east [Wehnimer's, The Mews] The large, barn-like structure that dominates the north side of the block is the city stable. Through a ground-floor window can be seen the rows of now-empty stalls in the dark interior. The pavement just outside is strewn with straw and debris that merits a careful step along this part of the road. To the west is the main square and its cobblestoned bazaar, where furious trading takes place on a daily basis. Obvious paths: north, east, west > [Wehnimer's, Valeria St.] The footsteps of passing wayfarers and townspeople echo on the cobbled pavement between the rows of two-story wooden houses that flank the lane. The street seems a bit less congested here, blocks away from the busy square to the west. You also see a black flame-scorched house. Obvious paths: east, south, west > [go2]>go door [go2]>go doorway [Wehnimer's, Valeria St.] Flatbed wagons carrying loads of wood or other goods lumber slowly to the east and west, bouncing over a large pothole in the road. A nondescript building, with a prominent sign in the shape of a key above its black door, is set back slightly from the street. You also see the Engraver's Shop with a small elegant sign on it. Obvious paths: north, east, west > [Locksmith, Salesroom] The walls of this shop are covered with keys and locks of all colors, shapes, and sizes, from large iron padlocks to bone-white skeleton keys. A white-hot coal fire burns steadily under a pot of molten metal over which stoops the locksmith's apprentice. Forms for keys and lock parts sit wedged in sand on a wood work table nearby. To the north, a dimly lit doorway recedes into the shadows. You also see some Wehnimer's militiamen, a low metal counter with a curious sign on it and a dingy stairway. Obvious exits: out > [Locksmith, Backroom] The backroom of the locksmith's shop is stark, and lit by a single tallow candle. A blob of wax secures the candle atop a locked case that provides the only seating in the uncomfortable room. A tall cabinet secured with a sturdy padlock occupies the far wall. You also see a dimly-lit doorway, Larton, a battered casket and a wax-stained counter with some stuff on it. Obvious exits: none > [go2: travel time: 0:00:06] --- Lich: go2 has exited.

Obvious paths: north, south > [go2]>go gate [go2]>south [Wehnimer's, Exterior] The muted sounds of loud bartering from within Wehnimer's Landing, and the lonely calls of a pair of mated fenvaoks high up in the air vie for your attention as you march along the outer western edge of the town. You also see a tall wooden archery tower and a large wooden gate. Obvious paths: north, south > [Wehnimer's, Exterior] To the west, the landscape has grown dark and broken, where a once thick forest has withered into a wasteland of dead trees and brown foliage. Pale wisps of fog slowly snake through the gnarled trees. You also see a weathered canvas tent. Obvious paths: north, south > [go2]>south [go2]>south [Wehnimer's, Exterior] To the southwest, the immense grasslands have begun to fade, replaced by twisted brown weeds and rotting undergrowth. To the northwest, once mighty pine trees have become bent with decomposition, their skeletal branches barren and gnarled. You also see a rolton. Obvious paths: north, south > [go2]>southeast [go2]>east [Wehnimer's, Exterior] A backdrop of rot and death expand to the south, where lush grasslands have been replaced by cracked grey rock, emaciated plant life and thick smog. Scattered about the dead lands are the putrid remains of roltons, flies swarming around their bodies. You also see a rotted wooden signpost. Obvious paths: north, southeast, southwest > [Wehnimer's, Exterior] The dirt path bends around the southwest corner of the landing. Far to the east, you can see a thin blue line that must be the river. You also see a heap of splintered timbers and torn hide, a grey silk ribbon and a rolton skeleton. Obvious paths: east, northwest > [go2]>east [Wehnimer's, Exterior] Through a crack in the wooden palisade to the north, you can see the bustling traffic of Wehnimer. It is a stark contrast to the open path that you walk. Obvious paths: east, west > [go2]>go bridge [go2]>east [Wehnimer's, Exterior] You are standing on the western shore of the Locksmehr river. From here you can see the southern water entrance to the town of Wehnimer's Landing. It is through this entrance that the boats returning from their upstream sojourns to the south have access to the town. A rough trail descends a rocky slope toward a stand of willow trees. You also see a wooden sign and a sturdy bridge. Obvious paths: west > [Wehnimer's, Exterior] [go2]>northeast You stand below the top bank of the eastern shore of the Locksmehr River. From here you have a good view of the many merchant barges and fishing boats that move along the river. Some move towards the Landing to exchange their goods for silver, while others are working their way upstream to gather new cargo. You also see a sturdy bridge, a large metal-topped barrier arcing over most of the area and a wooden sign. Obvious paths: east, south > [Wehnimer's, Exterior] This open field stretches from the southeast corner of Wehnimer's Landing. From here, a faint path can be seen heading to the northeast and to the west as it follows the high walls of the fortified town. Obvious paths: northeast, west > [go2]>north [Wehnimer's, Exterior] [go2]>go trail You are feeling a bit uneasy as you walk around this part of the outer wall. Glancing up, you notice the reason for this apprehension. Several of the town militia are staring down at you from their guard posts high on the walls of the barricade. Though you see no weapons, you are quite sure that each guard has one handy and is well versed in its use. Obvious paths: north, southwest > [go2]>east [Wehnimer's, Exterior] Thick brambles grow high upon the walls of this, the east, side of Wehnimer's Landing. Small pieces of cloth (and flesh) still cling to the sharp thorns of these bushes, left behind by those foolish enough to think that they could gain access to the walled town by climbing the prickly vines. You also see an obscure trail. Obvious paths: north, south > [Lower Trollfang, Clearing] This small grassy clearing is dotted with occasional low bushes and young trees. To the east the trees become larger and more numerous, while to the west a faint trail leads back to the walls of Wehnimer's Landing. You also see a black iron gate. Obvious paths: east > [go2]>east [Lower Trollfang, Forest] The sun shines merrily through the canopy of hundreds of vibrant young trees, dappling everything beneath them with pockets of light and shadow.

Obvious paths: north, northeast, east, southeast, south, southwest, west, northwest > [go2]>northeast You wander northeast into the forest. [Lower Trollfang, Forest] The trees are older and higher here, and their leaves more densely intertwined, lending a somewhat gloomy atmosphere to an otherwise pleasant forest. Obvious paths: north, northeast, east, southeast, south, southwest, west, northwest > [go2]>north You wander north into the forest. [Graveyard] Through the dense forest, you can barely make out an overgrown trail that leads northeast up a gentle slope. As the slope rises and levels off, the foliage thins out, changing in hue from deep forest shades and refreshing greens to sere browns and dull, wilted yellows. Obvious paths: south > [go2]>go trail [go2]>go path [Graveyard] The trees part to reveal a trodden dirt path. Along its edges grow scraggly clumps of creeping dirge-vaon vines. The scant leaves on the few sickly trees that support the vines seem to tremble in some unfelt and disquieting breeze. A narrow trail leads southwest. Obvious paths: none > [go2]>go gate [Graveyard] A massive bronze gate spans the path, blocking the way north. On either side are high stone walls surmounted with jagged rocks. Now green and pitted, the gate is still locked shut by a rusted chain fastened with an ancient padlock. A cast likeness of the goddess Lorminstra, Keeper of the Gates of Oblivion, her Staff of Doom in hand, and a grotesque statue of the Empress Gosaena are the main motifs of the elaborately decorated portal. You also see a dirt path. Obvious paths: none > The bronze gate appears to be closed. > [go2]>prepare 309 You raise your hand while murmuring a soft orison, focusing on the Neutralize Curse spell...

Cast Roundtime 3 Seconds. > [go2]>go gate [Graveyard] You pause inside the gates to survey the eerie scene. A magnificently crafted granite crypt to the north inspires wonder and loathing. The carvings on the facade are horrific, detailing the onslaughts of the Unlife throughout the chaotic history of Elanthia. A gravel path wraps around the structure, while thorny brambles growing among the tombstones deter you from leaving the paved route. You also see a goblin. Obvious paths: northeast, northwest > [go2]>go crypt [Graveyard, Crypt] The entry foyer to this enormous granite crypt is stark, adorned only with grisly friezes sculpted in low relief into the walls. Bands of bluish-green ahnver are inlaid into the stone in thin strips just below the ceiling throughout the entire structure, bathing the rooms in a subtle light. A shadowy arch curves overhead and leads deeper into the inner sanctum of the sepulcher. You also see a cracked urn and an open black marble ossuary.

Did you try sloot proper? Don't rename it though change big shot properly

I changed it back and cleared other instances of any sloot so there is only sloot4. It still does it. I stop at my resting place of 4142 (GY Crypt), then it starts sloot which runs me to the bank, then runs me back to the Crypt, then runs me back to Town and does the locksmith, selling and depositing. So the problem is really in the getting coins from the bank.

When I say Sloot proper I mean Sloot not sloot4

Ah, thanks. Didn't understand the lingo.

I tried it out and it still runs me around. Maybe it's just me?

If you could give us a bit of clarification, we may be able to help you out.

First things first, please check the following:

1. Is bigshot updated

2. Which Sloot are you using?
- sloot (by Spiffy, you should be using this one)
- sloot3 (knock-off, not updated)
- sloot4 (knock-off, updated and generally good)

3. To clarify, you are using bigshot to call a (sloot sell) command after your hunting has been completed?

4. Please give me a list of your (;go2 alias) - yes, this is a serious question

I'm asking these questions, because I've used all three versions of sloot recently, and know a lot of the ins and outs of them. I also use bigshot and have no issues with using a post-hunting (sloot sell) command Your problem likely has a very reasonable explanation and I'm certain with that information we can figure it out.

Table

Maybe you knew this already, but I pulled this line from the sloot4 script in the "locksmith" routine and it stopped putting boxes unnecessarily on the counter...

Code:

res = dothistimeout "put ##{box.id} on ##{table.id}", 5, /^You put|^You should really/

Sorry for not seeing this sooner. It's not that I have any problems with it, the program works great. It was just a little annoyance I noticed when the program ran. Thanks for trying to help, I do appreciate it.

I'm not sure what "it" is that you are referring to.

First you stated you had an issue with sloot3 going to and from the town and graveyard when being used in conjunction with bigshot. I asked you to answer some questions for me (so I could help you), and you did not respond.

Then you stated that there was an error in sloot4 concerning putting boxes on the tables at the locksmith; An error that has been identified multiple times in this thread already and still not corrected by the sloot4 author. The best solution was proposed by Spiffyjr - Use Sloot which is created by the original author, updated, and the basis of the sloot3 and sloot4 variations.

I'm confused. Willing to help - but if you want help it would be appreciated if you clarify what is wrong - or let us know that you no longer have an issue.

Random issue in sloot (just plain sloot). Sometimes, if I pull gold out to unlock boxes, it attributes that money to being received from the pawnshop or the furrier. Silly bug, but there.

Yea, I know about it, I'm just too lazy to fix it because it's not actually breaking anything. I'll get around to it... someday.

Once you fix my bounties!

Figured it didn't affect anything else, but I tested video games for a few years, and I saw how some of the most random crap could cause secondary issues, so figured better to report than to ignore.

I went ahead and fixed that last night and additionally added an output for showing how much you gained or lost at the locksmith.

It looks like it didn't quite work right.

[sloot: -- silver breakdown]
[sloot: consignment: 64 ]
[sloot: furrier: -1963 ]
[sloot: gemshop: 2151 ]
[sloot: total: 252 ]

That was without a visit to the locksmith. Gemshop should be 2215, furrier 252, consignment is correct. Looks like they just aren't quite tallying right.

Bigger problem. Out of nowhere sloot dropped the loot list. It keeps picking stuff up, but it no longer sees that it has anything to sell.

Again, I'm sorry for the lack of responding to this as I don't follow along as much as I should. I thought we were done discussing things about my "issue". "It" is sloot4 I believe and just had a minor annoyance about it, but all in all, the script works fairly well.

Of course, now I have a "functional" pack from EG that sloot4 doesn't interact well with.

SpiffyJr mentioned to just use sloot so I tried that and have been using it with good success. The only problem I am now seeing is that sloot won't "find" the boxes in my secondary stash location. My first setting is for my "pack." My overflow goes into my "longcoat." Sloot will sell out of my disk if I have one and the pack, but won't touch the longcoat. I have to manually move them to the pack for them to be recognized.

I will try to check back more frequently. Sorry for any trouble.

Uploading a potential fix to this. I haven't tested it so report if it doesn't work.

Thanks! I just downloaded it and will report. Appreciate the quick response cause I'm no good at it. :)

Can use my other thread for sloot related issues? Thanks.

Ran into this...

Exception: undefined local variable or method `boxsack' for main:Object
sloot:1085:in `start_script'

Had this issue happen the other day after equipping a dual-weapon displaying baldric. Essentially it puts my weapon away, but wont pull it back out again. No issues with a two hander that doesn't stow, but plenty with a one hander that does.

Throwing this thread both in here and in bigshot as it's an issue with both. Essentially I'll pick something up and stow it in my cloak either during a hunt or when sloot is selling off the loot. It wont recognize stowing it in my cloak and feeds me the error message :failed to put item in cloak:. Once bigshot/sloot finishes either hunting or selling loot, instead of removing my sword/shield from my inventory it removes the item it failed to recognize as stowing away in the first place.

I'm gonna take a wild guess and say it has to do with the messaging "You tuck the blah blah blah."

I'm sure it does, I just lack the skills to fix it. Is there anything that can be done or is there anything I can do to help?

I'm too lazy to check each time it checks for the "You put blah blah in your blah blah" line so you could try doing this.

Open up sloot4 in notepad and search for each instance of the following:

/^You put .* in .*\.$|

And change them all to:

/^You put .* in .*\.$|^You tuck .* in.*|

It should fix stuff.

Wouldn't that break it for putting items into other containers?

Naww, don't change the whole line. Just add

^You tuck .* in.*|

After

/^You put .* in .*\.$|

Even if you break it you can just download the script again; it shouldn't affect your settings.
