Thread: How to: Use Filter MineSpot option in Silverbolt

The documentation on the filter minespot option seems to be confusing for some people, so I wrote up a bit more detailed version to help out. Let me know if there are any more questions and I will try to answer them in this thread. If it's a success, perhaps we'll get it stickied.

First, load up the path you want to use and start botting like normal.

When you get to your first "trouble spot", stop the bot.

Open up the path tab and create a new path. Name it something like "THFilter" for example if you were in Twilight Highlands.

Click "Auto", after it records a single point, click "stop".

Repeat this along your whole path adding a single point as close to the problem node as possible. Make sure you're just adding to the "THFilter" path and not making a new path each time, you're basically just recording a list of coordinates, but don't try to use the "Filter Spot" button, it only works half the time, the other half of the time it just inputs 0 0 0 for the coords.

Once you have your list of filter points recorded, you're ready to add it to your settings.

Make sure the bot is STOPPED.

Open up your settings, make sure you're editting the right profile.

Go to the "LOOT" tab. At the bottom of the second section you will see "Filter MineSpot Filename". For the above example, you will enter "THFilter" in the box.

Directly below that where it says "Abandon Distance ___________ yards". Put in a number between 1-100, I recommend 50.

Save your settings, and restart the bot.

If everything has worked correctly, the bot will follow your original path but when it sees a herb/mining node within 50 yards of one of the filter points, it will pass over that node.

And that's how you keep your bot from dying on nodes surrounded by too many mobs, or falling off of a cliff near a poorly placed node.

Good luck!

Stickied ^^

Lets try this out.. if it works, i'll love you forever.

Edit: died in the same spot 2 times, as soon as i left, and then i resed.. and then i died again, about 5 ft away.. does not work for me.

EDIT: it was just the spot in the path where the guy made it hit the ground , i have downs. I love you so much!

I always got the 0 0 0 co-ords When i was in my Sandstone drake... But when i switched it worked, maybe that could be a problem.. I'm trying this now because i died 10 mins into botting..

Watching the bot run a loop or two might be boring and tedious, but when your path is perfect, it's totally worth it.

I did, but i randomly died in another spot that i've never went to, i recorded over the other guys path and ended it before it hit the ground... But then i re did the THFilter, and changed it to 150 yards, hopefully it works. If it doesnt i'll get back to using your script, or mine ( my friend gave me his LEGIT path in uldum) and then i'll have to filter just 1 spot where those 5 guys are

so far... amazing, it went right past the spot, and didnt hit 2 nodes... i'll have to post my guild bank soon (:

EDIT: went right past the spot i ALWAYS died before.. i'm so thankful you posted this lol.
