Using a Hide belt (Re-Post: I thought I had it but didn't)

[MrIrrelevant]

Hello,
Semi-repost as I thought I previously got the answer so I deleted the thread but in actuality it didn't seem to work out as planned and am looking for clarification on why it is not working.

Anyways I am trying to use a Hide belt:

useSelf_skill Hiding {
lvl 1
hp
sp > 20
aggressives
monsters
inLockOnly 1
notWhileSitting 1
notInTown 1
timeout 30
isSelfSkill 1
WhenStatusInactive Hiding
whenEquipped Belt [Smokie] [1]
}

Any suggestions on what to change? it is suppose to just automatically hide when attacked/in-range of anything, as it is to be used on my afk leecher and prevent them from dying from aggressives by hiding.

Thanks in advance.

use:

monsterSkill
sp
isSelfSkill 1
target
target_dist
notWhileSitting 1
inLockOnly 1
whenStatusInactive Hiding
whenEquipped
timeout 2 or 5 depending on server lag
etc

and in mon_control.txt:

all 2
or
<monster name to avoid> 2

and in mon_control.txt:

Thanks i'll have a look at the differences and try to figure out why, as I dont understand why those changes are like that unless there is missing code on purpose as to not spoon feed.

Clue: monsterSkill block would only trigger if there are monsters around.

useSelfSkill would trigger even if there are no monsters and you don't need to hide.

Thanks, I think I understand it now. As I was able to read up on what MonsterSkill is on the OpenKore wiki page, and it makes a lot more sense on why that function is better then useSelf_Skill (since it was made for it).

EDIT: Not sure if I should make a new thread or not, but new question!

So I am having issues with pathing (example: Izlude, Morocc fields, etc), however resolved it by reading another thread; that you use the 'OLD' Portals and 'rename Portals.txt' (or something similar to that name) and copy+pasting them into the IRO folder.

It worked, but now my bot will not take any warps from kafra's example: Morocc and walked all the way to the Argos field in Prontera.

Any solution to this? I also read about the RouteWeight's.txt but it seems fine and using the default settings and cannot see why the bot would walk 1000+ steps compared to the 200 NPC steps.
