JCvalentyne Posted March 6, 2019 Posted March 6, 2019 I am developing a barrows bot and I have done the banking/supplying and killing the barrows brother. I am now developing the underground bit which, I plan on tackling the puzzle to the chest using widgets however, I don't know how to pathfind/navigate the tunnels? webwalking does not work. Anyone got any input or guidance here?
Night Posted March 6, 2019 Posted March 6, 2019 I'd suggest looking into some different pathfinding algorithms, A* or BFS are good places to look. You'll need a way to find what doors you can open though, as these will determine your node connections in the pathfinding graph.
Czar Posted March 6, 2019 Posted March 6, 2019 A huge chunk of barrows is configs IIRC, so you should easily be able to find out your path to the center chest via configs and the rest is just widget handler for the puzzles etc etc.

Hopefully no more questions needed! 1

Pathing can be determined when the region loads as it loads all objects at the same time. So mapping out all areas available and using a pathfinding algo to find the walkable areas/path is the way to go. Barrows does have a config for loot potential/barrows kills. 1

All objects dont load in though at once, when I get all doors in the middle room, it returns like 3 of them, one of the furthest ones sometimes isn't rendered in, so how do I get all objects in the entire barrows tunnels to even begin creating an algorithm to navigate them?

A good hint: there is a config that Jagex uses to determine your tunnel path. You can use this data to check each door and see if it's able to be passed through, then use that to plan your path with one of the pathfinding algorithms.

I don't know too much about playing around with configs, but to determine what door I need to enter, I check if the chest room doors have the action "open". I just need to find a way to traverse to those doors now..

So monitor configs and match config changes to path routes and hope combinations are limited?

BUT you could use the Strange old lockpick instead of pathfinding? https://oldschool.runescape.wiki/w/Strange_old_lockpick You could even implement this if you do get the walking working as well. I think this shaves about 30-50 seconds off each barrows run.
