Botchief Runner IGNORES Run Mode Settings

ReplyThanks 2016/01/10 08:14:10 0 0

Operating System:Windows 7

Operating System Bit:64bit

Software Version:3.8.9

Whitehatbox v1.2.1


ANOTHER FREAKING BUG:


1) Botchief Runner IGNORES RunningTimes per day

If I tell it to run 5 times (with multiple threads OFF) it will only run ONCE


2) Botchief Runner IGNORES Interval Time after each Run.
No matter what I set that value to, it IGNORES IT


3) Botchief Runner IGNORES Number of ReRuns After Failure!

I set that to "0" because after 1 failure, I want it to STOP. It ignored that and STOPPED after a successful run! That makes absolutely no sense!!!

As I stated in another post, Im trying extremely hard to LEARN, LIKE, and make my own "simple" bots with this app, but Im almost ready to just give up & uninstall this app.


I know that all software isn't perfect, but Im discovering major BUGS with it at an early stage. For botchief to be several years old, most of these bugs shouldn't even exist by now.

Thanks for the report, the programmer will check the problem asap and fixing. This is a new function we added just now.
Let's ROCK!

Can you tell me how you set the run mode? Please post a screenshot here.

(multi-thread is off)


My understanding is as follows:

Running times per day:

Run Once- Means bot will only run once. Then stop.

Run several times- Means bot will run task in a loop. In my pic, bot should run 10 times.


Continuous running time of task:

Run One Day- Means bot will run today only

Run Forever- Means Bot will run til it is manually stopped.

Run to someday- Means bot will run from now til the date selected


Interval after each run- Means bot will take a break after each run (break will be some random seconds between 30-60 for each break it takes)


Are my above understanding correct? If not, what did I miss or get wrong?


Now this brings up another question thats pretty important to me.

Lets say hypothetically, that if I insert an "End Action" at the end of my bot in editor.
then after that, I add "Go To" number 1 to repeat the process all over again.


Will the Runner continue to save all returned variables from each restart of the loop?

Or will it continue to overwrite the same data with the last data?


I cant test this yet because my runner & editor is still open from my previous project, and Im still attempting to retrieve the returned variables somehow.

But the idea here is to create an even smarter & faster bot for really repetitious work where some delay isn't a factor.

Update:

Runner only ignores the Run Mode Settings with Multi-thread OFF.

Free version isn't capable of running multi-threads, so by default (and commons sense) I left multi-thread OFF.


Through trial & error, I decided to turn ON multi-thread to observe the outcome, and everything worked fine then.

(with running "X" amount of times between "X" -- "X" seconds)


Free Version users will not know to turn on multi-thread because multi-thread is only available to pro, elite, dev users.


Although Runner was set with multi-thread ON, it will still only run 1 instance at a time.

Number of re run after failure - The task will try to rerun for X times before it runs successfully.

When you add an "End" action in your bot, the bot will stop immediately when it goes to "End" action.

So in other words, the bot will ignore everything after "End Action" because "end action" means End everything?
