Routes

Screenshot of 2 separate routes containing just a few specific herbs

v1.2.7
13 August 2009
(Written for Live Servers v3.2.0.10192)

Routes allow you to draw lines on the worldmap linking nodes together into an efficient farming route from existing databases. The route will be shown (by default) on the minimap and zone map as well.

Use /routes to begin.

Features:

  • Select node-types to build a line upon. The following are supported
    • Cartographer_Fishing
    • Cartographer_Mining
    • Cartographer_Herbalism
    • Cartographer_ExtractGas
    • Cartographer_Treasure
    • GatherMate
    • Gatherer
    • HandyNotes
  • Optimize your route using the traveling salesmen problem (TSP) ant colony optimization (ACO) algorithm
  • Background (nonblocking) and foreground (blocking) optimization
  • Select color/thickness/transparency/visibility for each route
  • For any route created, finding a new node will try to add that as optimal as possible
  • Quick clustering algorithm to merge nearby nodes into a single traveling point
  • Quickly mark entire areas/regions as "out of bounds" or "taboo" to Routes, meaning your routes will ignore nodes in those areas and avoid cross them
  • Fubar plugin available to quickly access your routes
  • Cartographer_Waypoints and TomTom support for quickly following a route
  • Works with Chinchilla's Expander minimap and SexyMap's HudMap!
  • Full in-game help file and FAQ, guiding you step by step on what to do!
