SRL Archive - SRL Bugs

I read somewhere that this was happening every time FindNormalRandoms is called, which would make sense in my script, but I don't know if that's the case or not.

I was just wondering if anyone had an explanation for that, maybe you're having the same problems. Anyway if anyone knows, that'd be great. Thanks. :)

Agreed. In certain areas (for example, western Draynor and the Dwarfen Mines) it seems to either check the music every time it goes by or continuously checks it.

Alright it's good to know that I'm not the only one experiencing this problem. I also didn't think about the certain areas, but now that you mention it, when I use my powerchopper in Port Sarim, it doesn't check the tab at all, but in my Draynor banker, it does it quite frequently. That's why I was wondering if something was wrong with my script or not.

I'm pretty sure that's a check to avoid false positives in the random detection.

I see, but is it suppose to check EVERY time FindNormalRandoms is called? That just seems really odd to me, and especially if it's more common in different areas.

If I remember correctly, it's called every time a random is detected, to make sure it really is a random.

:eek: So I guess then it's needed, otherwise it would think the character is getting a random every 3 seconds. It still seems odd, but I understand it. Thanks for clearing that up senrath. :)

That means the random detection needs an update :cartman: Maybe somebody try debugging it and find out which random is causing the false positives?

Well now that I know what the problem is, I would love to give it a try when I have time. ;)

If I can remember correctly it's the forester.
Hmm I think I have read that in the changelog that ZephyrFury changed it to detect it better. He has even wrote that it may be odd or something.

EDIT: I found it! It was N1ke anyway.
In rev 167! Oh noes I fail. I should read more carefully.

Okay that's good to know. I remember a while ago my script did it every couple seconds, and when I updated SRL it wasn't as frequent, but still occurred. I was just wondering about it. :)

No, I edited. I was wrong or at least couldn't find it. I have no clue now. But I am remembering something. Somebody know what I am remembering to?

Either way, at least the devs are aware of the problem, and if it's needed, it's needed, but now I know. :p

I also confirm the problem.
Im having it using Taras chicken killer and it just seems so obvious/detectable to me, and ive never noticed it before. I highly doubt checking the music tab thaaaat often is required.

Yes same problem thought i don't auto but i test people scripts sometimes. And it's kinda detectable.

Not to mentions just annoying in general. XD

Yeah I watched a script for a while and i really don't like the behavior, i cant really tell which function is causing it to happen though, hmm. Probably some antiban of course, but i cant find the source in Tara's chicken killer.

I can also confirm this, within Tarajunky's Chicken Killer.

It always seems to happen when burying bones for me ;)

In this order :p:

1. Bury one bone in inventory
2. Switch to music tab
3. Bury the next bone in inventory
4. Switch to music tab

And just keeps repeating that until all the bones are buried.

The function FindNormalRandoms is what does it I believe. Isn't it the randoms that will check music to see if it is in a random? There must be a better way than that.

That's exactly what it is. Almost every time FindNormalRandoms is called, it switches to the music tab. And, you would think there would be another way, but I don't know enough about the randoms solving to know for sure.

Yeah i looked around a lot last night and it is find normal randoms. Specifically the procedure called "GetMusic". We just gotta figure out which randoms are using the procedure GEtMusic, and either make them use it less, or find another way to replace it.

Find a way to replace it. The extra calls to GetMusic were added because otherwise false positives came up a lot.

I dont really know how to fix it, a lot of the random finding scripts are all linked to each other and stuff, i wouldn't really want to break anything. Besides, that's the Devs job! :D haha

Yeah, but I'm sure they're more concentrated on getting the solvers fixed, rather than this little bug.

The bug occurs, I think, because SRL detects a random event of some sort. It would then refer to the Music Tab to confirm. It seems that the primary detection of 1 random needs to be redone, or modified.

When I wrote my guildmining script a while ago, it would check the music tab all the time =\

I see, that makes sense. And I'd say it definitely needs to be modified. :p

For me, it depends on where you are. Like, it seems to occur much more if I'm in Draynor, then when I'm in, say, Port Sarim.
