Attacking certain mobs only. - Shisa - 10-09-2013

Hi, I hope someone can help me im so terrible at this! *feels bad*

I wish I had more time (im even at work as we speak) to read through the lua wiki (I will soon!) but currently I don't and it's making me a bit confused.
so I hope someone could point me in the right direction! :D

lil while back I was asking on how to get the bot only attack a certain mobs that I want him to attack in the grind mode and this code was brought up:

Code:
function GetNearestGrindAttackable()

    local level = Player.level

    local el = EntityList("nearest,alive,attackable,onmesh,minLevel="..tostring(level-1)..",maxlevel="..tostring(level+1))

    if ( el ) then

        local i,e = next(el)

        if (i~=nil and e~=nil) then

            return e

        end

    end

    ml_debug("GetNearestAttackable() failed with no entity found matching params")

    return nil

Now i'm getting really confused by this currently. Where do I exactly have to change the names(or put in) of the mobs that I want it to attack.

Again sorry for the dumb question but I just don't have the time currently to read through the wiki @_@
Thanks allot if someone can put me in the right direction!

Thanks allot!!
I can just add as many ID as I want right? Like contentid=12345,56789,998785, etc etc

And thanks for the tip i'll save it to change everytime :D

Edit: works like a charm, great ^-^

how do i do this exactly?

RE: Attacking certain mobs only. - Shisa - 10-13-2013

Go to your bot folder, > Luamods > ffxivminion > open ffxiv_helpers.lua in like notepad or something and just copy over the text
local el = EntityList("nearest,contentid=12345,alive,attackable,onmesh,minLevel="..tostring(level-1)..",maxlevel="..tostring(level+1))

Change the contentid to the ID you want it to be.

To find this go to the ingame bot > Lua Modules > Dev> toggle devmonitor on > open up target info look @ content ID paste this into the notepad content ID and control > reload lua modules.

RE: Attacking certain mobs only. - ForeverVirgin - 10-14-2013

local el = EntityList("nearest,contentid=130,alive,attackable,onmesh,minLevel="..tostring(level-1)..",maxlevel="..tostring(level+1))

exactly which line to add this to?

RE: Attacking certain mobs only. - Shisa - 10-14-2013

go to the ffxiv_helpers.lua you should see a line exactly the same like that one but without the contentid=. Just completely replace this line with the one you just copy'd.

This doesn't work for me. It still attacks all monsters on mesh. :( And that exact line doesnt even exist, I even tried only adding contentid=xxx on the existing lines, didnt work.

RE: Attacking certain mobs only. - Koopla - 10-16-2013

This works, but it only gives a priority to a certain ID. My question is how can you make the bot ignore certain ID?

RE: Attacking certain mobs only. - chrispeterson - 10-20-2013

Doesnt seem to be working for me..
function GetNearestGrindAttackable()
local minLevel = tostring(Player.level - tonumber(gMinMobLevel))
local maxLevel = tostring(Player.level + tonumber(gMaxMobLevel))
local el = EntityList("lowesthealth,alive,contentid=411,attackable,onmesh,maxdistance="..tostring(ml_global_information.AttackRange)..",minlevel="..minLevel..",maxlevel="..maxLevel)
if ( el ) then
local i,e = next(el)
if (i~=nil and e~=nil) then
return e
end
end

local el = EntityList("nearest,contentid=411,alive,attackable,onmesh,minlevel="..minLevel..",maxlevel="..maxLevel)
if ( el ) then
local i,e = next(el)
if (i~=nil and e~=nil) then
return e
end
end
ml_debug("GetNearestAttackable() failed with no entity found matching params")
return nil
end

still is attacking everything o.o
