i never ever see that message in bot

Jcolomar avatar Jul 19 '17 10:07 Jcolomar

Sometimes the bot gets stuck on its way to a Pokestop as reported in #6065 this message is an attempt to fix those problems and was introduced in #6092 is the bot not moving at all, or does it just skip the stop?

davidakachaos avatar Jul 19 '17 14:07 davidakachaos

The bot seems to be moving, buddy still walked, eggs still incubated, but skips the stops and moves to the next

camnomis avatar Jul 19 '17 19:07 camnomis

I have the same problem that it just "freezes" into moving to a pokestop after some time. MoveToFort just gets stuck.

goedzo avatar Jul 20 '17 12:07 goedzo

@camnomis that's the intended behaviour 😄

@goedzo do you still have that problem a lot while using the latest dev?

davidakachaos avatar Jul 20 '17 16:07 davidakachaos

@davidakachaos that good to know, however what causes the behaviour? Do we know what causes the Pokestop's to not spin, or more importantly is/could this be a flag for Niantic to suspect 3rd party usage?

camnomis avatar Jul 20 '17 16:07 camnomis

This isn't caused by not spinning the Pokestop, it's a problem somewhere in the walker that makes it confused about moving to the Pokestop in question. Polyline sometimes has the problem a stop isn't reachable from the road (according to Google Maps) I admit, this is just a bandage and doesn't solve the real problem. I don't know why the Walkers sometimes have problems moving toward a stop. And most other times it seems to work fine, that is why I created this solution; skip the stop for 5 minutes and move on.

davidakachaos avatar Jul 20 '17 16:07 davidakachaos

Yep. Had it yesterday evening on two accounts.

goedzo avatar Jul 20 '17 16:07 goedzo

I'm getting the same error and on top of that sometimes it starts towards a pokestop or a gym and then starts towards another and never goes to either.

I swapped in an older version of move_to_fort.py and I no longer experience the issue! Not sure which commit this is from but here's the move_to_fort.py i'm using that's working fine. I am 100% sure that it is unmodified from when originally cloned. https://pastebin.com/xDKrydS5 .

Actually, it stopped working after 15 minutes.... maybe the issue isn't with the walker it self but elsewhere... ??

crvfts avatar Jul 20 '17 22:07 crvfts

Are you all in dense area with lots of pokestops?

MerlionRock avatar Jul 21 '17 02:07 MerlionRock

here is my config, i dont have any issue:

https://pastebin.com/cVPx2UGw

Jcolomar avatar Jul 21 '17 07:07 Jcolomar

@MerlionRock in my play area there are about 20 stops and 5 gyms. In my instance, only 2 stops can be reached simultaneously, all others require walking of ~10-15 meters. I have noted that at times my bot will actually pursue a fort that is further away than the one it was previously walking to.

crvfts avatar Jul 21 '17 21:07 crvfts

screenshot_2017-07-22-01-49-07 This looks like the issue. It's running in circles. Ps. This is the new web-ui on moble.

goedzo avatar Jul 21 '17 23:07 goedzo

Having difficulty walking to Laddermen Memorial. Changing walker.

First time on me when i changed StepWalker to PolylineWalker

Jcolomar avatar Jul 22 '17 08:07 Jcolomar

@Jcolomar it's okay. Polyline Walker follows path, but some gyms and pokestop won't have path leading to them, so changing Walker is appropriate

MerlionRock avatar Jul 22 '17 09:07 MerlionRock

It seems that I have this:

    {
        "type": "MoveToFort",
        "config": {
            "enabled": true,
            "lure_attraction": true,
            "lure_max_distance": 2000,
            "walker": "PolylineWalker",
            "log_interval": 60
        }
    },

So maybe that is why it cannog make it,. Howevel polyline is the safest, because it follows real roads. So what to do here? I would like to keep it.

goedzo avatar Jul 23 '17 13:07 goedzo

I'm also having this problem, on different systems (ubuntu and raspbian), and on all my accounts. I normally bot in my hometown, but I also used it when I was on holidays at the holiday resort, about four weeks ago, when I first stumbled into this (back then there was no "Having difficulty walking to XXXX", but the bot was not getting to the pokestop). It is happening with both StepWalker and PolylineWalker. I got the bot to not be stuck forever by adding Campfort to the config file, so after some time the bot enters into Campfort mode and moves away, but this makes the bot quite ineffective. The bot seems not to move when stuck, except for the simulated GPS noise. Since this message has been added, the bot changes its target making it difficult to be observed. The output in such a situation is: [2017-07-23 19:08:21] [MoveToFort] [INFO] Moving towards pokestop Salacz Gyula - 0.09km [2017-07-23 19:08:24] [MoveToFort] [INFO] Having difficulty walking to Salacz Gyula.

The hunter is having the same problem, it gets stuck for some time without being able to approach it's target, but it appears to get able to move again after a few minutes.

I'm wondering... Will setting the noise to off help us?

    "replicate_gps_xy_noise": false,
    "replicate_gps_z_noise": true,
    "gps_xy_noise_range": 1.01E-4,
    "gps_z_noise_range": 7.5,

So, disable the replicate_gps_xy_noise thingie, does that help anyone else? It seems to reduce the number of times this happens to me (not sure why)

Please check if the recent fix does the trick

Hi As far as I can see, the bot is still sometimes changing it's destination pokestop one after the other sometimes complainig about having difficulties getting there. As I have Pokehunter and Campfort in the config, the bot is not often doing movetofort, and therefore I'm not seening this issue very often.   Günter

This function

self.bot.get_forts(order_by_distance=True)

seams to return empty list for many of its attemps for me.

i removed line

forts = filter(lambda x: 'closed' not in fort, forts)

from pokemongo_bot/init.py line 1646 No idea what it does but everything works better now
