Hey guys, how would I be able to use this for the new Zodiac / relic? I haven't used this module pre Novus. Someone mentioned Task Manager, but I don't exactly know where to begin after installing it.
The easiest way I think is to grind fates, after reaching a certain number of "lights" (or even on a timer... like after 2 hrs of fate grind), get new book, go back to fate farm area and repeat.
Many thanks!

exactly set up a task to farm fates for x amount of fats then you set a task to get the book. then a new task to farm fates it doesnt loop so you would hav eto do how ever many steps it takes.

I guess I should've been more specific lol.
Instead of me having to reverse engineer the books.info and having to learn all the [TaskNames] for days. Maybe someone with more experience can just write 2 blocks of code in less than 5 minutes.
ie:
-- Persistent Data
local multiRefObjects = {
} -- multiRefObjects
local obj1 = {
["tasks"] = {
[0] = {
["mode"] = "Grind";
["markerType"] = "grindMarker";
["fateId"] =
543; (# that grinds all fates)
["location"] = {
["map"] = x;
["mesh"] = "y";
["y"] = y;
["x"] = x;
["z"] = z;
};
};
[1] = {
Insert block of code to get new books here etc..
};
};
return obj1

i don think task manager can handle dialogs? So the best you can hope for, is to rewrite a single task, to grind 40 fates for you, then you get a new mahatma.
leave fateid blank so it does all fates:
["fateId"] = {
And for fates, i'm guessing contentcount = 40?? I dont think tm can count fates tho, you may have to estimate gil.

im trying to level my gather classes then move to a map and grind fates none stop with my 50 char
i got the map locations from the .data files for the maps so they should be right i got the map marker stuff the marker manager
and i used the other data from the in game ui
i reload the lua in the menu
to test the script i changed to a random map and a random gear set
i then select the task name and start task is 0
when i enable it the task manger ...it just enables the bot on the current map and the current profile the consol just says string error
any thoughts?

["mesh"] = "Central Thanalan";

Mine is also doing this.
It will kill the mobs, then do the first fate, then teleport to the next zone for the next fate, get about halfway to where that fate is, and teleport back to the older zone. It won't do the other 2 fates.

fate counting has been broken since 2.5. Once you kill the 1st fate, stop TM then change the task to 11. Once that is done, change it to 12.
Sucks, but still does 98% of the book for you afk.

Look at your Task manager window..... right under the enabled checkbox, there is a drop down box named tasks where you choose the book. Under that, it says start task. Mob kills are tasks 0-9, the fates are 10-12.
You must change start task. The current task field is only for information and wont affect anything if you change that,
