Barb Find Item Problem

I tried enabling the following setting on my BO barb:

Config.FindItem = true; // Use Find Item skill on corpses after clearing.
Config.FindItemSwitch = true; // Switch to non-primary slot when using Find Item skills

but the barb seems to get stuck trying to find item on corpses unsuccessfully. When I manually try to use the find item skill, the barb gets closer to the corpse then uses it. It’s like the bot is trying to cast it from too far away. Does anyone know how to fix this glitch?

check your pick range

It’s at the default 40. So, you’re suggesting to reduce it to a smaller radius, like 20 or something? I will try this.

Intuitively, I would have thought I needed to make some modification to the find item function within Barbarian.js, but I don’t really know.

I reduced pickit range from 40 to 20 and then all the way down to 10. Barb still gets stuck trying to find item.

Any other suggestions? Would really like to be able to get this working

Did you get this issue on all areas, or only on specific area like cow level?

Find Item skill range is set to 3 in 34th line of Misc.js

I got the issue on all areas, I believe. I specifically noticed it in the pit and in chaos sanctuary.

I will try reducing the find item skill range in Misc.js, thanks

Just tried reducing the range of find item in Misc.js from 3 to 1. Still barb is getting stuck trying to find item in all areas. I tried reducing range from 1 to 0 to see if this would affect anything. Still nothing. In current run, he got stuck on countess for a while, now he’s getting stuck in Ancient Tunnels. Eventually he seems to just give up and move on, but not until standing around for a minute or so doing nothing. Then next time he finds a corpse, he does the same routine making him effectively useless :frowning:

Any other ideas?

Edit: Upon watching a bit longer, every once in a while he manages to pop an item, but it’s very rare, almost random. Far less frequent than when I manually use find item on corpses in an area.

Edit #2: I found this: https://github.com/kolton/d2bot-with-kolbot/issues/1634#issuecomment-505562595 which seems to have improved upon the situation.
