Opening Gates, and the like

[Bad Boy JH]

I am creating a script which picks some wheat from the field above the cooking guild, goes into the guild, turns into flour, collects, banks and repeats.

The only issue I have, is to do with the gate to the wheat feild. I need help to detect if its open, and then open it.

On a side note: collecting the wheat was a pain in the arse...

I'm not sure how but just a idea.
Get the colour and see if there is a straight line of 100 Then its closed if there is a line of 40 and two 30's it means its open.
Not sure if it would work or how to do it thought

You could also just walk to the gate, hover the gate with your mouse and check the uptext - 'Open' if the gate is closed and needs to be open or 'Close' if its already opened.

Does the gate have that 'red' color on the MM?

If it does, then just try this, click a little inside the field, like 5 pixels above the red gate color on the minimap, just enough to make your character inside the field. If your character's MMCY > RedGate.Y then 'Gate is currently closed, lets open'. If you don't understand I'll try harder to explain :)

MM color counts aren't so reliable for something thats going to be used so often, I think Zephyr's method is good for you. Just use the uptext to check, no need to add an extra minimap count that could possibly mess up your script.

Minimap Methods: (Length)Red Color Count, (Length)White Wall Color Count, (Length)Combination of Red and White Colors in a TBox, DDTM, Player Positioning.

Easy Method: Get as close to the gate as usual, Check uptext, problem solved <3

Reflection object handling

function OpenDoorID (ID : Integer) : Boolean;
var DoorObj : TRSObject;
begin
if not LoggedIn then Exit;
// if DoorObj = NULL_RSOBJECT then
// begin
// Result := True;
// Exit;
// end;
DoorObj := GetObjectByID (ID, OBJECT_TYPE_INTERACTABLE, 52);
// Assuming it's on the main screen here...
// Assuming you change the angle so it's wide against the screen and view is @ bottom
TP := TileToMS (DoorObj.Tile, 0);
Mouse (TP.x, TP.y, 3, 3, false);
Result := R_ChooseOptionMulti (['pen', 'gat', 'doo']);
end;

Then just get the door ID and it will always be opened.

Now, I often have my best ideas when I am about 25 seconds from sleep, so 99% of them are gone, how about.....

The gate closes in a reasonably quick time, basically it IS going to get shut when I am milling the flour etc. so when I get there, I assume gate is open, and then open it. when i open it, I START A TIMER, if the timer reaches a point (testing needed) the gate will be assumed to be shut, and I will open it, otherwise I assume gate is open.

2nd option: A mix of colour and reflection (same as I did for finding the grain). When near the gate, I do something like...Get the Ms Pos of the centre of the gate when shut (refelction), then do a count colour around that point, if above a certain amount its closed, if below its open... Obviously Ill be using an AutoColour for that...

My advice is if you're going to throw any reflection in, just do it all based on reflection.

You can have a walking procedure where it keeps walking in, if (not CharacterMoving) then you know the door shut, and invoke the door opening procedure.

Im merely using reflection for screen position, not much more than that.
