Introduction
Hey all! its been a really long time ago since i released a script, the reason for that is that i quit playing osr, but im back now! I started this project because i wanted to do a large project.

Project
Slayer masters:
- Vannaka
- Chaeldar
- Nieve
- Duradel

Modes:
- Camp: choose a default monster and it will camp there!
- Slayer: completing slayer tasks

Extra:
- Almost all NPC's supported, NPC's like Green dragons are not supported because they are in the wilderness.
- Search for the quickest ways possible -> Shorcuts
- Looting
- Task detection/New task handler
- Banking
- Bones to peaches support/guthans (poll)
- Cannon (not sure about this..)

Requirements:
- Lunars + Dream Mentor quest
- 48+ agility
- Most likely ability to use fairy rings
- All the required slayer items, more information about this later.
- 30 construction and scrolls of redirection (to make rellakka and rimmington teleports). i will most likely rise the requirement to 40 soon.
- More information later..

Scripting Progess

14-1-2013: Start thread - done: task detection, get new task, structuring the biggest part of the
mainloop, slayer tower handler, ecto teleport handler

working on: Getting some basic information about the NPC's in slayer tower (tiles, name, cb) - Finished
+ perfected Check_Gem; + EctoHandler; + added more status + debug writeln. + changed progress report a little bit

lines: 863

15-1-2013: Working on: procedure that gets you to the slayer dungeon - > slayer dungeon handler + gather slayer dungeon NPC's

lines: 929

16-1-2013: Didnt finish slayer dungeon procedure because i ran out of time, before im getting back to that, im going to write a door handler function. Finished!
Will add some pictures tomorrow (17-1-2014)

lines: 1040

17-1-2014: working on stairs/shorcut handlers
taking a little break now, maybe im back in a few hours!

lines: 1087

18-1-2014: finishing all stairs/shortcut in slayer tower Finished!, i want to finish the Slayer Dungeon handler too.


starting slayer dungeon handler in 2 hours. just did 45-70 def today because a high defence level is useful for slayer.
lines: at the end of the day

19-1-2014 — 21-1-2014: Made a Rellekka teleport handler, with the path to the slayer dungeon + tons of little changes. Not many things done these days, just dont have time. almost all my free time goes now to this script. im sorry :(

lines: 1187

22-1-2014: finished an agility+entrance/OpenBank/ procedure. making a failsafe for recovering tabs Finished + trying to finish slayer dungeon handler < this is going take a loooonnnnggg time

lines: 1327

25-1-2014: finally finished the slayer dungeon + all NPCs in slayer dungeon. without shorcut handlers but the code will look cleaner that way.

26-1-2014: tweaking the slayer dungeon procedure, still need to find a way to figure out how to use the shortcuts

27-1-2014: rewrote the slayer dungeon procedure, can detect every room and walk from every room to another one + handling shortcuts (~ 60% done)

lines: 1540

3-2-2014: finally finished the slayer dungeon procedure for 99%, not sure what to do next.
sorry for slow updates again -> no time

lines: 1649

5-2-2014: started on dags handler. half way there, only have to grab the tiles + stepping stone handler, should be easy

lines: 1727

6-2-2014: did some work on the dags handler which includes: stepping stone handler, lighthouse door handler, GameNeck handler + recovery.

lines: 1891

7-2-2014:finished Camp mode, and made the script recognise the following areas:

more updates tonight!: finished the "DagHandler", trying to make a item find function for the bank that finds every item.

8-2-2014: made a procedure that recovers any item in your bank with the correct amount. no more updates today (f2p :( )

lines: 2024 (without debug lines)

sounds exciting. you plan to do this soley by yourself or make it easily 'added' to like kevin's eoc one?

Looks like you got it all planned out well. Hope it goes well.

Good luck, looks like a massive project!

good luck my friend!

thanks guys!

@Kevin might be able to give you some pointers! good luck

If I were to give any advice, I would say to make everything as interchangeable as possible.

Have a very consistent setup such that you have an entire framework ready independent of any monster. That way, when you get around to adding any new monster, it's as simple as adding a few lines for colors/walking procedure/equipment grabbing/etc. Way easier to maintain and add new monsters along the way while having testable 100% working earlier versions when you do it that way.

Also, it makes it super easy if you decide letting other people help wouldn't be a bad idea. I mean honestly, it gets to be that grabbing colors and making walking paths becomes the hard part of the script simply due to the quantity of monsters - and having a friendly hand doing easy, but monotonous, work can become quite welcomed after a few dozen of them…

I would say to make everything as interchangeable as possible/when you get around to adding any new monster - yes got this already. not going to make a procedure for every npc.

it makes it super easy if you decide letting other people help wouldn't be a bad idea. - having bad experience with that tbh. but things like a fairy rings snippets are appreciated. still have to do the quest though…



edit: added new stuff @scripting progress and added a new requirement

Holy wow! Good luck with this hoodz!

Implement web walking please.

I would love you.

You should take more help to complete some procedures and other areas of coding while you work on something else, project is just too big for one person + your doing it for free, i know its a learning experience, but when a user invests a vast amount of time into coding it should be rewarded for :).

http://villavu.com/forum/showthread.php?t=104781 Besides a couple of walking functions/colors and a couple of public methods, a non-reflection version was made.
And as big as that may be, that's not the biggest project OR most amount of work put into free projects here. I guarantee Brandon spent FAR more time than a slayer script working on OGL.

just asking, why did you make for all the npcs custom walking procedures?

Custom walking procedures were extrapolated to an extent, but by setting each monster to his own walker that would be called via a pointer, it made it extremely easily sorted out so if/when an update would be needed, it was extremely easy to find and do.

alright thanks!

updated some of the requirements. did a lot on my account the last few days for this script.

question: can someone make some paint for the script? im really bad at making progress reports paint..
if you are interested then skype me!

looks promising, cant wait to see the final result. good luck =)

If you're ever looking for help with this, should hit me up. I need something to do.

any tips or snippets that are useful are welcome! the only thing i really need is time which i dont have these last few days as you can see in the scripting progress…

hey man where did you get the antirandom handler with reflection that you are using

From: yayovio10
hey man where did you get the antirandom handler with reflection that you are using

Still private, will be released when i release this script.

Looking good, keep it up! :)

EDIT: Oh jeez im an old timer!

new form added…

Nice form for the monster list. Makes me wonder why this sort of this isn't used more often.

can someone help me

Goodluck dude, nice stuff

Taking a break from this project.

If you are considering dropping this project, you can always ask for help completing it or just release it. This time last year I wrote half a slayer bot for OSRS, I had everything almost working, fairy rings, lunar spells, rings and necks for teleportation, the slayer interfaces working with pathing from known teleports to the first 3 slayer masters. I wrote my own banking functions, heavily reliant on the core SRL functions but these would list everything in your bank and self configure each runtime of the script, finding all the required items eg slayer equipment. The map methods I was using were somewhat ridiculous, it was based on a linked list, each element could be something completely different eg, walk from XtoY, run through a dialogue, take a teleport, interact with the map. I got all of this completed in I think 4 weeks. When it came to actually create each slayer task record I just lost all motivation. In the end I never released or said anything about it, I may have mentioned it in passing to a few but not many.

My point is don't let all your work on this disappear and not get seen, if you are dropping it and probably wont resume post it up and let the community help out. :)

First of all: welcome back!
Second: im not quitting this project, i just dont have time. Paths and locations takes much longer to make for me (i explain that later)
