View Full Version : Writing to File %HPs

Can one write to a file (continuously) the %HPs of a target mob?

The objective here would be to be able to enable a trigger program (that I have running on another computer) to sense when the HPs are low enough to change current strategy of the player (using an EQmacros-like program).

If nothing obvious I will look at the code and see if I can determine where I can add some lines to do this, but wanting to know if there is something already enabled somewhere I can access more readily.

Thanks for any input!

while VI doesnt do much to combat showeq, they would probably take a more aggresive stance against it if it were being used to run bots, which is what it sounds like you are getting at.

If you do add the functionality, keep it to yourself.

i should also point at that should you implement your idea, there are much more efficient ways of accomplishing it, though more complex code is required.
