Hi guys,

This is a script I came across that I wanted to use, but that turned out not to work. The original post can be found here:
http://www.blackdtools.net/showthread.php?54435-50-Complete-Tarantula-Tasker-%28Dep-Seller-Refiller-Hide-Killer-%29-By-BldMx

The script was bugged and there were some mistakes in it, so I decided to rework it. You can check the original post for the features this script has to offer.

What did I change:
- script doesn't debug client anymore
- some enters were missing in the lines
- improved the overall structure of the script
- added some monsters to the kill list
- added new items to loot list
- added health and mana regen conditions to the conditionals
- when moving to Grizzly Adams it won't follow the monsters (this could cause you to get lured deep into the Tiquanda)
- removed the avoid cave option since it hunts so fast through these caves that avoiding one is kinda useless

This script doesn't make much profit, in fact I don't make profit at all atm. It does give good exp though (~25k exp/h). I used it to get the loot from Hide. It drops Knight Armor and Legs and I needed them. If you want to make money you should probably hunt something else like Rotworms.
Keep in mind that you need a rope in order to run this script.

When I load the conditionals, my character just keeps saying 0. Any idea what that could be?

Thx for that report. I added a line too much at each condition. It's fixed now!

Conditionals work now, but there is a few problems with the script. It gets lost occasionally, and very often gets a "Destination out of Range"

I noticed that problem as well, however I can't really fix it other than by rewriting most of the script.
It will work if you start it at the Tiquanda (south side of Port Hope near Grizzly Adams hide-out) and not at the bank/depot.
Make sure you set up $_counter$ and $_taskstarted$ according to your status. You can check how many tarantulas you have killed so far by looking into the questlog. Define $_counter$ as that number (you can do this in cavebot, these things can be found as some of the first lines at the settings label). If you started the tarantulas task define $_taskstarted$ as 1, if you started the Hide quest define it as 2.

For example you started the quest and you killed 75 tarantulas:

fastExiva _counter = 75
fastExiva _taskstarted = 1

Being fully prepared (100 mana potions and 30 health potions + rope) also helps alot.
