Request - GPX Build in

[NoobWithBoobs]

Hello,
Requesting for GPX following to be build in to json/config file. Keep the bot from traveling off course.

Do-able?

[ghost]

Would be interesting

[NoobWithBoobs]

would be ideal for a nest area and gpx are pretty easy to make with google earth and bunch of other programs too.

[ghost]

Support for GPX was already in the previous version of the GUI so it shouldn't be too hard to implement

[NoobWithBoobs]

I have the bot reload every 30mins due and usually i'm not around to resubmit via the gui again and again. If gpx support was build into config/json file, bot could roam around in more focus areas without having to be instructed to each and every time. .

[ghost]

Just checked, it's do-able

[NoobWithBoobs]

The excitement rages!!!

[staurakis]

It would be a great add on!!! :)

[ghost]

Will do it today or tomorrow

[NoobWithBoobs]

i look forward to it, keep us posted here 👍

[ghost]

Will have two settings I think :

• GPX file
• Number of time the file must be repeated

[NoobWithBoobs]

Repeat is an awesome idea, please be sure to include -1 option as well.

[ghost]

Of course ^^

How can I make this kind of GPX?

[NoobWithBoobs]

@Peyphour Direction might be cool in future versions.

[ghost]

Directions ?

[NoobWithBoobs]

Direction as in backwards, forward, bidirectional.

[staurakis]

I think the only logical route to have is a circular one... There is no point to directly go back the opposite route as nothing would have been spawn yet.
On the other hand, a delay time maybe a good idea if you have a small route ;)

[NoobWithBoobs]

@staurakis, you do have a point with circular routes but I was thinking long roads and such. Anyways, I'm excited for just the basic, I could make a loop myself.

Delay Time to wait for Pokemon to spawn?

[staurakis]

Me too! ;)
@NoobWithBoobs yes a delay amount of time to wait to restart the route i think would be a nice think to have :)

#1008

[NoobWithBoobs]

damn exciting, can't wait to see it be included in the main build!!

[ghost]

Can you test it ? I can't do it right now ^^

[NoobWithBoobs]

yep, pulling as I type!

Happened on your end as well?

[ghost]

10min for building ?!

Are you sure you have a config.properties.template ? Build passed on Travis so this isn't my fault

[NoobWithBoobs]

mhmm redo time!

[NoobWithBoobs]

So I've tested it now for 20mins and I don't see it following the gpx patch. Could you provide your gpx file and which one is correct?

# GPX file to be added on the bot's start
gpx_file=/Users/Katherine/Desktop/Beta/PokemonGoBot/WalkInCentralPark.gpx
# Number of times the bot must repeat this GPX file
gpx_repeat=-1

or

# GPX file to be added on the bot's start
gpx_file=WalkInCentralPark.gpx
# Number of times the bot must repeat this GPX file
gpx_repeat=-1

[staurakis]

@NoobWithBoobs i'm willing to help by any means (and that's obvious i think) but i'm a bit out of my expertise here... If i receive some rough guidelines, i can and will be more than happy to do so! :)

[ghost]

Just run the bot with a GPX file, let it run for 4-5 minutes et send me : the GPX file and the logs

[staurakis]

i have the compiled version @Peyphour .... As far as i understand, i have to go for the other way to run it and get the files you have changed.... That is the part i am missing.... That's the part that i need a bit of info. I am missing the platform to 'compile' it.... I think at least.....

[ghost]

Forget it then, I'll do it myself tomorrow

[staurakis]

i think i did it.... building it right now....
I will test it with my gpx and let you know ;)
pffff :(

fixed it...continuing.....

[ghost]

Sorry, didn't see your issue, you need JDK 1.8

[staurakis]

yeap yeap figured it out ;)
checking the gpx right now ;)

[staurakis]

@Peyphour my gpx format is a bit different from your test.gpx.
Also, don't you have any 'switch' (as you describe in your code) in the configuration file? I haven't seen anything.

[staurakis]

I have added two variables in to the configuration file: gpxFile and gpxRepeat in a try to make it read my gpx file but without any luck.
I have also changed my gpx xml file in accordance to your xml but again it didn't help.
@Peyphour Could you please help on how to make it "read" the gpx file?

[ghost]

What do you mean by 'switch' ?
Could you provide via pastebin your config file and GPX file ?

[staurakis]

i think i found it.... you name your variables with _ in between. I had them in the configuration file as you describe them in the comments without anything.
Testing again.

[staurakis]

my config file now is like that:

GPX file to be added on the bot's start
gpx_file=test.gpx
Number of times the bot must repeat this GPX file
gpx_repeat=5

gpx file: http://pastebin.com/UAZpj1X5

[staurakis]

I can get it "read" the gpx file.... :(
@Peyphour Am i doing something wrong....?

[ghost]

Can't help you at the moment, it's 11 PM here in Paris, we can talk about this tomorrow

[staurakis]

ok. whenever you can

[ghost]

Hello, any updates ? Do you still need help ?
I've got some free time, let's solve this 😄

[staurakis]

Yes i need help on this. I couldn't make it 'read' the gpx file. Basicaly it didn't do anything.
Although currently i have paused testing due to ban issue, i will begin again in few hours. So if tou please help on this...

[NoobWithBoobs]

Be care, I'm ban. I propose catch, stop, and time limit to avoid getting banned.

[alexbulyha]

I have added those 3 limits, however they currently simply stop (not kill) the bot, without restarting it later vor anything like that
In #1047

[NoobWithBoobs]

@AlexBoulyga, very nice. Checking it out

[alexbulyha]

If you find any bugs in that functionality (try it out with low values) Please tell me. However, AS a Warning, it currently stops the bot but the process seems to still run, so you need to kill it manually (idk why)

[ghost]

A little off topic here guys :)
@staurakis, what did you try to make it work ? The options are 'gpxFile' (the path MUST be relative to the jar file/project if you build from source), and 'gpxRepeat' (any value >0 works, 1 should be good for testing)

[NoobWithBoobs]

@peyphour, you're right. @AlexBoulyga I'll report back as soon as I get a chance. Currently at work.

@peyphour, considering the recent bans that we've all been impacted by. Would it possible if the bot didn't follow the gpx perfectly. Meaning the path stays the same but the coordinates numbers have a bit of change. So it seems less like a bot and more like a drunk/teenager person walking.

[ghost]

Yeah there's already a part of the code which does some randomization, I will adapt it

[NoobWithBoobs]

@Peyphour Genius!

[ghost]

Actually, I just re-checked and the randomization of the path is done for every coordinate supplied to the bot (including when going to pokestop, catching pokemons etc ...)

[ghost]

I did a test and it works for me, double check your settings

[NoobWithBoobs]

By chance, would you share your settings with us? Maybe we're missing something
