issue with CampFort

[liejuntao001]

I'm trying to use CampFort and notice 2 problems.

1. If I increase "min_forts_count" to 4, I don't see CampFort kicking in
2. If a cluster was detected and after moved to the place, if the lure has gone, bot is not leaving

Your FULL config.json (remove your username, password, gmapkey and any other private info)

  {
    "type": "CampFort",
    "config": {
    "enabled": true,
    "max_distance": 2000,
    "min_forts_count": 2,
    "min_lured_forts_count": 1,
    "camping_time": 1800,
    "moving_time": 600
    }
  },
  {
    "type": "MoveToFort",
    "config": {
    "enabled": true,
    "lure_attraction": true,
    "lure_max_distance": 300,
    "walker": "PolylineWalker",
    "log_interval": 5
    }
  }

have u wait 1800 ?

[liejuntao001]

No I didn't wait 1800, why would it wait if no lured forts?

[MZorzy]

i think that with
camping_time": 1800,
bot will not move until 1800 time expire.

If min_forts_count is 4, you will only go to clusters of 4 forts. Do you have such thing in your area ? If not, the task will not so anything.

The bot will not more away imediately if lures disappear because a player might put back a lure right away.
The next cluster could be far so it will be a waste of time to decide to go 1000 meters away to realize lures are back in our previous location.

However, I am adding a feature that will apply a malus to the time when we see there is no lure. So the bot will leave earlier.

[liejuntao001]

I set the bot to a big city with huge amount of forts. (41.8756,-87.6291)
I tried to set min_forts_count to 3 and saw no log about CampFort

[julienlavergne]

Can you check that it is working with the config you have mentioned in your first post ? It is not 4 or 3 there, it is 2.

[liejuntao001]

it's working with 2.

[julienlavergne]

You may not have any 3+ fort camp in your area.

[liejuntao001]

what's the meaning of 3+ fort camp? 3 forts in a range of xxx meters?
basically the area is full of forts, if you search the coordinate.

[davidakachaos]

min_forts_count is the amount of forts you can reach while standing in 1 spot.
Of those a count of min_lured_forts_count must be lured for the task to select is as a camp site.

[liejuntao001]

I see, it's quite rare but I did see a place with min_forts_count 3.

[julienlavergne]

Keep it at 2 if you want to make the CampFort your main decision point for moving.
Put it to 3 with a minimum number of lures, if you know you have several spot with 3 forts reachable and only want to go there when it is really worth it.
