[B]Rev 7493 - jasonharper[/B] (4 file(s) modified)
Added CLI "speculate" command, with alias "whatif". This takes a
semicolon-separated list of commands that change the character state, and
displays the modifier changes that would occur due to executing those
commands. The supported commands are:
* MCD <num>
* equip [<slot>] <item>
* unequip <slot>
* familiar <type> - note that this doesn't change the current familiar item,
whether or not the specified familiar can equip it.
* up <effect> - considers you to have 1 turn of that effect.
* uneffect <effect>
* quiet - suppresses the display of changed modifiers, for use in scripts.
Note that speculation about impossible actions is allowed - there's no
checking to verify that you actually have any item, or can equip it. The
predicted modifiers are stored as an object named "_spec", which can be
referenced by any of the ASH modifier query functions.
ASH numeric_modifier() now accepts five new derived modifier names, with
values predicted from your base stats and other modifiers: "Buffed Muscle",
"Buffed Mysticality", "Buffed Moxie", "Buffed HP Maximum", and "Buffed MP
Maximum". They are of little use with the character's current modifiers,
since the actual values of these attributes are available, but are quite
useful with the modifiers resulting from a speculation. Example:
cli_execute("whatif <commands you're considering>; quiet");
if (my_mp() > numeric_modifier("_spec", "Buffed MP Maximum")) {
print("Bad idea - you'd lose MP by doing that.");
}
