I've been scouring the forums for a solution to this and everything is very unreliable, at least with my limited knowledge.

I've tried these, but for both of these the bot is trying to face the target during the strafe, hence it starts doing circles around the mob not really getting away from it.

wManager.Wow.Helpers.Keybindings.PressKeybindings(wManager.Wow.Enums.Keybindings.STRAFELEFT, 1250);
Move.StrafeLeft(Move.MoveAction.PressKey, 1250);

The only reliable way I found how to get away from the mob is to pause the bot (below code) before the move, which makes the movement go as I want to but it messes the bot up in some situations.

robotManager.Products.Products.InPause = true;
Move.StrafeLeft(Move.MoveAction.PressKey, 1250);
robotManager.Products.Products.InPause = false;

Surely, there is a simple, clean way of doing this?

if (SpellManager.GetSpellCooldownTimeLeft("Frost Nova") > 0)
{
    wManager.Wow.Helpers.Move.Backward(Move.MoveAction.PressKey, 1000);
}

I've tried Move.Backward but I don't like backpaddling, hence I wanted to use strafe.

EDIT: also, one would think that Move.MoveAction.PressKey, 1000 would hold the key pressed for one second, however it doesn't. It presses it for a few miliseconds. It feels like the script doesn't pause for it to be resolved and continues with the while loop which I have set to Thread.Sleep(50); Or it might have sth to do with what I described with the strafe, ie the bot doesn't want to move away from the mob and I'm telling him otherwise resulting in only a ms of movement.

MovementEvents.OnMovementPulse might be what you're looking for.
Intercept all other events for a while, until you're done moving.

Could you please ellaborate on that? How would I use it correctly?

 

EDIT: do I just go with this, then use Move.Backwards and then set it to false?

wManager.Events.MovementEvents.OnMovementPulse += (points, cancelable) =>
{
	cancelable.Cancel = true;
};

 

Basically, for the entire duration that you take over movement (also OnMoveToPulse you'll probably need), you need to cancel all other movement events.

So I should use the code in the way I guessed above? EDIT: nope, that doesn't seem to be the correct usage.

Absolute pseudo code here!
 

bool isRunning = false;
while(ObjectManager.Target.GetDistance < 5){
  isRunning = true;
  Move.StrafeLeft(Move.MoveAction.PressKey, 1250);
}


MovementEvents.OnMoveToPulse += MovementEvents_OnMoveToPulse;
MovementEvents.OnMovementPulse += MovementEvents_OnMovementPulse;

private static void MovementEvents_OnMovementPulse(List<Vector3> points, CancelEventArgs cancelable)
{
  if(isRunning)
  {
    cancelable.Cancel = true;
  }
}

private static void MovementEvents_OnMoveToPulse(Vector3 point, CancelEventArgs cancelable)
{
  if(isRunning)
  {
    cancelable.Cancel = true;
  }
}

 

Received an error. Seems the bot doesn't like the ' += ' and ' ; ' in this:

MovementEvents.OnMoveToPulse += MovementEvents_OnMoveToPulse;
MovementEvents.OnMovementPulse += MovementEvents_OnMovementPulse;

Or I put it where it doesn't belong.

Well, I define the functions underneath. I assume you use the XML Fightclass editor and don't use a C# class/.cs file?

You can define it just like you did in your example code.

 

wManager.Events.MovementEvents.OnMovementPulse += (points, cancelable) =>
{
  if(isRunning)
  {
	cancelable.Cancel = true;
  }
};

 

Nope I use CSharp

 

Edit: should I post my code? Maybe it would be easier to spot where the issue is

You need to move

	MovementEvents.OnMovementPulse += MovementEvents_OnMovementPulse;

to your Initialize function. It needs to be called from somewhere...

Using Visual studio? Ctrl+K Ctrl+D, formats your code, i was really confused, thought you were doing the events in the ShowConfiguration().

also would you not do?

MovementEvents.OnMoveToPulse += delegate { MovementEvents_OnMoveToPulse; };
MovementEvents.OnMovementPulse += delegate { MovementEvents_OnMovementPulse; };

No I don't, i use Notepad++ and the code looks good inside but gets messed up when I paste it here

Tried using this and same as above, it doesn't exist in the current context. Am I missing "an include"? I mean "using xyz"?

Ahh...

using wManager.Events;

Alright, this solved the error.

Now it has a problem with these two, saying that the line if (isTooClose) or to be more specific Main.isTooClose requires a link to an object (or sth similar, I have it in my native language, not english)

	private static void MovementEvents_OnMovementPulse(List<Vector3> points, CancelEventArgs cancelable)
	{
		if (isTooClose)
		{
			cancelable.Cancel = true;
		}
	}

	private static void MovementEvents_OnMoveToPulse(Vector3 point, CancelEventArgs cancelable)
	{
		if (isTooClose)
		{
			cancelable.Cancel = true;
		}
	}

 

Also, this is my first encounter with C# hence these, probably obvious, mistakes on my part.

I believe that is because they're static.

A lot of these types of errors can easily be highlighted by a better editor that references the wrobot dlls. Visual studio community edition is free (although quite a heavy editor) and there are some others, its all based on preference.

Ha, no error this time... Let me see if it does what we're after... Be back in a second with an update.

Nope, does the same thing :( moves an inch back, waits a few ms, moves an inch back etc... definitely not that 1250ms as expected

Sadly at work right now so I can't test anything, sorry.

I'd be surprised if it doesn't error;

BuffRotation();
CheckConjureWaterRank();
CheckConjureFoodRank();

These functions don't exist, also you left out using wManager.Events; again :P

You actually need to set isTooClose to false again after the while loop and maybe give it a short Thread.Sleep(500) or so at the end of each iteration.
Does the bot interrupt movement and then starts strafing again? Or is the strafing itself just choppy?

 

I highly recommend getting Visual Studio and doing a basic C# tutorial (or even Java, they're essentially the same

They exist :) I just removed them from the enclosed code because they're not relevant for our issue :)

True, adding it now :)
