Loot agent not working, also won't recognize wooden boxes as 'valid containers'

[vocal ridge]

I have a bunch of auto-loot items set up, most going into player backpack and some into a specific container. Problem is, none of them work. I'm also trying to pick a wooden box in my backpack as an additional loot container but it doesn't think it's a 'valid container'. Not that it matters though because the selected items don't even get auto-looted.

Can you send a screenshot of your autoloot items and the corpse it's not picking up from?

The container requirement is based on whether the item has a tiledata flag of container, so if the item doesn't have it it's not a container (from the clients point of view)

won't pick up from any corpse and I just noticed no container is recognized valid, not just wooden boxes. screenshot on its way

can you check you have Object Queue enabled and the queue count is > 0?

on UOAlive everything sees to be working for me, can change containers, auto loots corpses, etc.

Is it showing the autoloot text, like it's attempting to loot, or not at all?

[vocal ridge]

nope, corpses auto-open but nothing else is happening. how can I tell if it's attempting to loot?

[vernal badge]

you'll see a message like this over the corpse

[vocal ridge]

oh yeah nothing like that comes up

hmm I think your Gold Coin loot item might not be "correct"

could be a different graphic like OxEEF which looks the same but isn't what is on the corpses

can you try adding a new loot item and clicking a gold pile in your backpack? does it add a different gold item into the autoloot table?

[vocal ridge]

It did add a new gold item like you said, but everything else about the issue remains: 'must choose a valid container' is erroneous and not the container's fault because it will say this about a container, for instance, that I've already picked through the 'Set loot bag' option found under each corpse. So, active loot bag > 'choose a valid container' when chosen through the loot agent

Selecting 'Backpack' and 'Bag' graphics works. Guess it's a flag issue like you'd mentioned. But in that case it's not ideal since I think we should be able to use anything that really is a container.

This also made me realize I can't see which container I set up this way (via 'Set loot bag' under corpses) anywhere

l think you might be confusing the grid loot option and the loot agent

Can you please record a video showing what you're describing?

I'll look into relaxing the container requirements but can you confirm that the corpses are being looted now?

Thanks for your patience I know it's probably frustrating trying to figure out out whats happening

[vocal ridge]

Yeah I think that's true ^^ Either way though since it says ''Set loot bag" on the bottom of grid corpses, your first instinct is to look for it under auto-loot. Anyways, I can confirm that autoloot's working now and we're on the same page about the invalid containers thing, so there's nothing to video-record rn. Far from frustrating— I always get a reply to my questions here not to mention a prompt fix so I really appreciate that

@vocal ridge I also relaxed the container requirement in the latest update, can you see if it works on your wooden box now (Under autoloot)?

I'll look into a solution to make the existing grid corpse loot less confusing with autoloot

[vocal ridge]

Awesome! Can confirm it works with wooden boxes and pouches at the minimum, thank you

Only problem I have left now is this

tried playing around with object queue to no help

[vocal ridge]

sorry, accidentally cryptic lol. the problem is it's displaying a bunch of attempts when ideally it should just attempt once per item

[vernal badge]

try increasing your Action Delay

but yeah in general it's pretty aggressive with trying to loot

[vocal ridge]

So I experimented a little bit, and num of attempts go down to 2 at 50ms but anything above that makes no diff, so I'll leave it at 50

What does action delay do in general? Like what else does this affect? Can't find options docs online specific to Web

[vocal ridge]

Also how can I mark this as Done ?

[vernal badge]

servers usually prevent you from performing actions like moving items too quickly, so the action delay specifies how fast the queue of actions is executed
