A Beginners Guide to Writing OSBot Scripts (where to get started!) by Apaec

[lfcandy]

@Apaec I get the same error now for RS2Object  now. I have the OSBot 2.4.118 jar in referenced libraries. Eclipse quick-fixed it for me when I clicked on RS2Object  and selected import RS2Object(or something similar). not sure what was going on

Can you send me a screenshot of the exact error you're getting perhaps?

forgot to crop...

If I click 'import entity from osbot' the red line goes away and the script works.

Ah, yeah. You need to make sure you import the things that you're using!

Alright so I'm trying to make a basic powerfisher using my very limited knowledge.

Here's what I have
 

 

Quote

 

import org.osbot.rs07.script.Script;
import org.osbot.rs07.script.ScriptManifest;
import org.osbot.rs07.api.model.NPC;

@ScriptManifest(name = "skeetfish", author = "skeetballs", version = 1.0, info = "", logo = "") 

public class Todfish extends Script {

private enum State {
    FISH, DROP, WAIT
};

private State getState() {
    NPC fishspot = (NPC) objects.closest("Fishing Spot");
    if (!inventory.isEmptyExcept("Feather","Fly fishing rod"))
        return State.DROP;
    if (fishspot != null)
        return State.FISH;
    return State.WAIT;
}

@Override

public int onLoop() throws InterruptedException {

switch (getState()) {

case FISH:

NPC fishspot = (NPC) objects.closest("Fishing spot");

if (fishspot != null) {

fishspot.interact("Lure");

}

break;

case DROP:

inventory.dropAll("Trout","Salmon");

break;

case WAIT:

sleep(random(500, 700));

break;

}

return random(200, 300);

}
}

Just rewrote a few parts of the tutorial since a few sections were unclear and poorly written. If you're reading, please refresh the page!

To answer your previous question, you will see that our script extends Script. This is an abstract class in the OSBot API and since we are extending it, we have access to all of its attributes. An example of an attribute is inventory, whereby we are calling the super inventory object attribute and using the methods that it provides. As for the stall, you will find that that is initialised just above the snippet you quoted, we're creating an instance of an RS2Object which is an API object describing an ingame object. 

Hope that makes sense, let me know if you're still unsure. Since you edited the post I would assume you figured this out yourself but I just thought i'd drop a quick reply in to clear it up if you didn't!
