Click_To_Move Acting Weird

Stop posting, its solved.

You need to write "scale" as well: (from mac, but same concept)

- (void)setClickToMove:(Position*)position andType:(UInt32)type andGUID:(UInt64)guid{
	
	MemoryAccess *memory = [controller wowMemoryAccess];
	if ( !memory ){
		return;
	}
	
	// Set our position!
	if ( position != nil ){
		float pos[3] = {0.0f, 0.0f, 0.0f};
		pos[0] = [position xPosition];
		pos[1] = [position yPosition];
		pos[2] = [position zPosition];
		[memory saveDataForAddress: [offsetController offset:@"CTM_POS"] Buffer: (Byte *)&pos BufLength: sizeof(float)*3];
	}
	
	// Set the GUID of who to interact with!
	if ( guid > 0 ){
		[memory saveDataForAddress: [offsetController offset:@"CTM_GUID"] Buffer: (Byte *)&guid BufLength: sizeof(guid)];
	}
	
	// Set our scale!
	float scale = 13.962634f;
	[memory saveDataForAddress: [offsetController offset:@"CTM_SCALE"] Buffer: (Byte *)&scale BufLength: sizeof(scale)];
	
	// Set our distance to the target until we stop moving
	float distance = 0.5f;	// Default for just move to position
	if ( type == ctmAttackGuid ){
		distance = 3.66f;
	}
	else if ( type == ctmInteractNpc ){
		distance = 2.75f;
	}
	else if ( type == ctmInteractObject ){
		distance = 4.5f;
	}
	[memory saveDataForAddress: [offsetController offset:@"CTM_DISTANCE"] Buffer: (Byte *)&distance BufLength: sizeof(distance)];
	
	/*
	// Set these other randoms!  These are set if the player actually clicks, but sometimes they won't when they login!  Then it won't work :(  /cry
	float unk = 9.0f;
	float unk2 = 14.0f;		// should this be 7.0f?  If only i knew what this was!
	[memory saveDataForAddress: CTM_UNKNOWN Buffer: (Byte *)&unk BufLength: sizeof(unk)];
	[memory saveDataForAddress: CTM_UNKNOWN2 Buffer: (Byte *)&unk2 BufLength: sizeof(unk2)];
	 */
	
	// Lets start moving!
	[memory saveDataForAddress: [offsetController offset:@"CTM_ACTION"] Buffer: (Byte *)&type BufLength: sizeof(type)];
}

Thank you Tanaris.

wrote a post for the address and such., just search for it. gl on your progress

Yeah, I had this exact same problem with CTM when I first starting using it. One of those "gotchas." I eventually tracked it down by a process of trial and error. I noticed that on some of my game clients it would turn, but not on others.

Finally found out that on some of my clients I had previously clicked on the ground, (because this particular character was set up to use the normal CTM that a regular player would use). By looking at the values in the CTM structure I was able to determine that using the mouse set the scale and a few other properties, and by replicating those values when using memory writing to the CTM structure, it began working without first needing a kick in the pants via a regular ole mouse click.

When I am trying to find out how to make something work on a game client (Warcraft or other games), and I cannot determine what the disassembly is doing, it is often productive to just take a snapshot of the region of memory under investigation and watch what the game client is doing itself, then reverse that to figure out what values to set.

FFS why remove the original question and replace it with "Stop posting, its solved.". How selfish! This thread is useless now.

Original problem: the character would just move forward instead of going in the correct direction

Solution: Be sure to write the scale and distance offsets (see my post above)
