This system already shared a long time ago for Rebellion forks and looks so ugly. No one from russian community didn't used this shit for live projects. Only for fun. And only you show it as own somehow achivement.

 

Take more time for following of trends in russian community and you will stop to create bicycle again.

Also bots have automatic internal rebuffing and refueling of consumables (shots/arrows/bones) when they are about to run out.

Performance is solid.

 

 

 

this automation is on another level,if characters able to move at same time while hitting it gonna be close to a real mass pvp scenario

Implemented a small functionality that allows the admin to take control of a fake player.

For now it only supports movement but it is easy to add things like attack/skill casting.

Sell something like that,then people will give up totaly coz there is no hope for this videogame...

Well,at least there is the possibility of being a single player videogame.

 

Taking control over a bot ... interesting .

What you guys don't get is that people are already using similar things like that. They are just poorly written, moronic and not sophisticated at all.

If you are to do it anyway then might as well do it right.

 

Also i still consider the possibility of releasing it for free. But this will depend on how much effort it will take to get it to a good place.

U misunderstood my statement...

Yea obviously fake engines exist but providing something like this,it will make the things worse when it comes to gameplay.Well people might think that its fun to kill bots but personally i dont.

Thats the reason why i said that this engine will be a step closer to make l2 singleplayer videogame.

People can have their own opinion idk,but if we are supposed to play with 80< % bots,then whats the point...

Its just 1 more tool to keep the parasites alive.

Its nice experience to code something like this but the usage of it will be disgusting.

 

It would be fine for events with advanced AI mechanics party vs party /parties vs parties.Making something like this public will be nail into the coffin.. People aint stupid and it will make things worse.

it would be best for the event if 1 player enter the rest will be bots to party and etc (they fill the gap) but there is no actual event engine working to work on but good point there

 

PS the guys who will pay for this will have a server that will fail or already failed and 8/10 admin and have waste money on this remember that... the other 2 will play solo because you cant win players with players online and shit servers

The funny part here is that some people appear as the "Destroyers" of the game. "I'll share this engine and boom ! Lineage 2 community is dead."

Lineage 2 survived so many years though stupid admins, fail homemade servers and br/ru people who tend to photoshop fake nude models that keep their logo on a piece of paper just to attract more virgins. Guess what, your little code won't hurt it more.

 

So compare this to a conquest of the land. Your effort cost more than the benefits you get. You gonna waste your time while you could do something useful in your life, to try ruin a community that is already ruined. Worth it? And why? The majority of the target audience can figure out that this specific character is a bot and leave instantly.

Neither i have the intention that this will kill any game nor i think that this a bad think. On a personal level i like seeing populated servers rather than non populated server. I wouldn't recommend to someone to use this as in a ratio of 200/200 real/fake bur a 200/50 ratio.

 

Trust me all of you have been playing in high profile servers with bots and you don't even know it.

Also an extra update.

 

Implemented a auto scaling system where AI tasks are being spawned based on how many fake players are currently live (in the video the players per task value is 10).

This allows admins to configure how much stress they will put on a single task. Currently each task will iterate over all the players responsive for it and trigger the thingAndAct() method for them. The rest is up to the FakePlayerAI to decide.

 

Also started building a little bit of a dashboard to allow easy control of the bots.

Sweets also deleted my stress testing post. Anyways the bottom line is, don’t spawn a shit ton of bots that are attacking because you will have some performance issues. Bots will less functionality should be fine though.

 

there are ways to address them but it is not s priority for now

      Are Lineage 2 Players waiting for the next server listing?

      By L2LIVEpro · Posted

      From my personal experiences 🙂   Few months ago I decided to create my own Essence project. Project needs website, and I do not specialize in frontend development (t.y. i can make web work, but it won't be pretty for eye). So I search and find a guy in Discord, which claims he can make me a good looking HTML website for 30 EUR, prove some screenshots from his previous work. I agree. 1 week later, I get my HTML website, make few changes to contents, update URLs and upload it to FTP. Site looks good, I am happy that this headache is no more.   Few months passes. I randomly crawl through other Essence server websites scouting for good ideas for my own project. Suddenly one of russians project website opens and.. it's the same website as one I have 😉 perfectly absolutely same layout, colours, etc etc etc. I contact my guy to ask what the hell, to get blocked 😉  So I find a weekend worth of my time. Find HTML5 boilerplate generator and ask it to include Bootstrap 5 and some other stuff. Open Bootstrap documentation, drink two energy drinks on instant and start working my backend-inspired HTML black magic... Once I found suiting firefly effect for header, result looked oikay for me: Absolutely no magic or beauty here, but: * Unique (and probably nobody cares to rip it) * Done for free in ~10 hours by non-frontend dev * Most modern browsers friendly * Completely static content, loads instantly. No PHP at all * Sidebar statuses (online, pvp, pk) are pulled from account manager REST API endpoint and is cached for 5 minutes. Account manager runs separately from website frontend and has access to server DB. Where could/will it get better? * Code in Vue instead of HTML - time concerns only, but Vue is superior compared to HTML/PHP for supporting desktop/mobile, easing development by miles. Need to learn how to use it properly. * Way to manage content from backend - in my instance I think account manager is not really meant for that. Vue can help here too - there are components for content building. * Currently default Bootstrap components are used. Would be nice to have custom and more vibrant buttons. Guess what, Vue can help here too.   tl;dr don't buy 30EUR website, it will be ripped or shit. you better make your own website. Be curious. I am backend developer, I obviously have general idea how frontend works. But imho everyone who can make L2 server by editing NPC HTMLs, also can make their own simple website. ChatGPT and other AIs are your friends. Bootstrap. jQuery documentations are your friends. And when you feel good and comfortable with HTML, if you like, you can continue learning Vue, or going backend. Now, as for the top sites. You really need to invest money to make new project work. I mean really, really much money. For this concept to work, top website itself must get visited. But if you can sort that your top site would be popular amongst players, then it's a really very simple concept, as far as current 2004-ish sites goes. I think simple, working concept of this, maybe without proper frontend, but with implemented backend logics (add/edit/disable server, sort by votes count (top list), vote for server with verification, callback to server endpoint - all of that can be done using Symfony in mostly 5 days, with lots of breaks for coffee and a smoke 😉. Experienced mid frontend dev would make a Vue/React frontend for it in another 5 days. it's really really simple concept 🙂
