GameTickListener interface is not working

[botmaker_01 1]

Hi everyone, 

I've tried to use the GameTickListener interface but it didn't seem to work. Any suggestions? Other interface like ExperienceListener worked just fine.

 

import org.dreambot.api.methods.MethodProvider;
import org.dreambot.api.script.AbstractScript;
import org.dreambot.api.script.Category;
import org.dreambot.api.script.ScriptManifest;
import org.dreambot.api.script.listener.GameTickListener;

@ScriptManifest(name = "Test script", description = "this is a test script", author = "Developer Name",
        version = 1.0, category = Category.COMBAT, image = "")
public class TestScript extends AbstractScript implements GameTickListener {

    @Override
    public void onStart() {
        MethodProvider.log("on start");
    }

    @Override
    public void onGameTick() {
        MethodProvider.log("gametick: " + System.currentTimeMillis());
    }

    @Override
    public int onLoop() {
        log("On Loop");
        return 1000;
    }

}

Hey there, the GameTickListener isn't implemented yet, I've marked it as deprecated and updated the Javadocs to show that in future updates.

It'll eventually work, it's just not added right now

Thanks for quick reply, hopefully it can be added soon. It's kinda critical for my script

Now I'm curious what the script is about if knowing the exact tick is critical to it...

Problem is that he wont be in sync with the actual gametick , even if its implemented

You can get it pretty dang close by using 

System.currentTimeMillis()

with a method call checking xp drops / animation timing. Although its next to impossible to account for server lag / internet delay / map loading that will offset the System time slightly. I'm sure with tweaks/testing a method could account for this

Thats exactly why im saying you cant be in sync

Really? I thought it uses the information of the server/client of osrs state information directly just in same way as the RuneLite does? I'm not that familiar of how the API accesses the actual game information though, not even sure how reflection and injection works.

Obviously if you keep local gameTick which occurs every 600ms it won't ever be in sync with the actual game tick? so it won't work

when this is added i will be getting that elite donor rank. i have also have a script which would really benefit from game tick listener so hoping this comes soon.
