budabot / budabot

Note: Budabot is no longer supported, although it should continue to work for the forseeable future. If you need a new bot, especially a bot that will work on RK6 (RK2019) then I recommend using Tyrbot (https://github.com/Budabot/Tyrbot), which is a new bot I have written. Feel free to join the discord channel if you need help with this new bot: https://discord.gg/2x9WesJ

Installation

There are three ways that you can obtain Budabot: Release Archives (recommended for most users), Latest Development, or Cloning the Repository (recommended for developers).

Release Archives

You can download the latest stable version from link below. If you want the most stable version, choose the latest GA release. If you want to test some of the newest features, choose an RC release.

https://github.com/Budabot/Budabot/releases

Linux: See additional installation instructions in the forum: http://budabot.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=5&t=850

Latest Development

You can download the very lastest version from the link below. Note that this version is a development version, may not have been tested thoroughly, and may contain bugs.

https://github.com/Budabot/Budabot/archive/master.zip

Cloning The Repository

Alternatively you can clone the Budabot git repository. The advantage to doing this is that as new changes are committed you can simply do git pull to pull those changes into your copy. Note that this version is a development version, may not have been tested thoroughly, and may contain bugs. If you are planning on developing on Budabot, we recommend that you use this method.

Running Budabot

To start the bot, run the chatbot.bat file (on linux run the chatbot.sh file). If it is your first time running the bot, it will take you through the configuration wizard to configure the bot. You will need to have a character name that you you want to run the bot as along with the username and password for the account that has that character. If you want to run this bot as an org bot, you will also need the EXACT org name of the org and the character that the bot runs as will need to have already been invited to the org.

budabot's Issues

Guild roster errors

"ERROR Guild xml file has no members! Aborting roster update."

not a coder but running a budabot server for new Anarchy online guild and it seems to be pulling information from old server. Showing old names and levels including faction.

APIController - Operation not permitted (0)

I just noticed I was getting this error when bot is starting:

APIController - Operation not permitted (0)

The error message comes right after "All Systems ready!"

Happens both on PHP 5.5 and 5.6.

Guides -> Lag // Spelling error in menu

I found a spelling error in the lag guide. The 'Environment and Visuals' section near the top has the entry

Enable Disable - Show Sace Ships

It should read 'Space Ships' instead.

Location on GIT: Budabot/modules/GUIDE_MODULE/guides/lag.txt

Deprecated: Non-static method in PHP 5.6.x

After my server provider upgraded to PHP 5.6.14, my bot is giving this error:

Deprecated: Non-static method Budabot\Core\xml::spliceData() should not be called statically, assuming $this from incompatible context in /usr/home/user/shell/budabot/core/PLAYER_LOOKUP/GuildManager.class.php on line 68
budabot Deprecated Non-static method

According to Deprecated features in PHP 5.6.x there are changes in PHP 5.6.x affecting Budabot.

I can choose between PHP 5.5 and 5.6 on my server, so I opted for 5.5 for now which fixed the issue for me.
