Newish Castle farming script

[Xenthes]

I made this script a couple of weeks ago and since someone was asking about how to write one in this (http://kolmafia.us/showthread.php?4433-REQUEST-someone-to-tell-me-how-exactly-you-start-a-script.-documentation-unhelpful&p=31436#top) thread I thought I would post what I did.

This script does need zlib.ash (http://kolmafia.us/showthread.php?2072-ZLib-Zarqon-s-useful-function-library) and the updated version of EatDrink.ash (http://kolmafia.us/showthread.php?4202-The-Unofficial-Ascend.ash-support-thread.&p=30725&viewfull=1#post30725)
dobhh.ash (http://kolmafia.us/showthread.php?823-BHH-script-etc&p=4475&viewfull=1#post4475) needed for the bounty hunter section.


What is does:
* Eats and spleens up to your max fullness and your spleen
* Finds best outfit and familiar for item drop
* Does the the bounty hunter for the day using dobhh.ash
* Finds the best outfit and familiar for meat farming
* Farms the castle for however many adventures you have remaning
* Uses the warm subject gift certificates and autosells the rest
* Finds and equips the best rollover items in your inventory
* Drinks up to your max drunkness then overdrinks.
* Prints out how much you got from autoselling the items and how much you got from using the WSGCs in your inventory in the gCLI

Any suggestions for improvements are welcomed.

I would make


eatdrink(15, 0, 15, false);
eatdrink(0, 19, 0, true);

Into


eatdrink(fullness_limit(), 0, spleen_limit(), false);
eatdrink(fullness_limit(), inebriety_limit(), spleen_limit(), true);


AND

cli_execute("maximize meat");


cli_execute("maximize meat -equip sns crossbow");
Just in case


Also add this

string bhh_page = visit_url("bhh.php");
boolean hunt_today() {
switch {
case bhh_page.contains_text("I can't assign you a new one"):
print("Bounty hunt already completed today.", "red");
return false;
case bhh_page.contains_text("I'm still waiting for you to bring me"):
print("You're already on a bounty hunt!", "green");
return false;
case bhh_page.contains_text("5 discarded pacifiers"):
print("Hunting for 5 discarded pacifiers!", "green");
visit_url("bhh.php?pwd&action=takebounty&whichitem=2415");
return true; }
print("Not asking for a good bounty today.", "red");
return false;
}
}

Also i added a script i made

Thanks icon, the bounty part will come in useful for the one i'm doing

[Xenthes]

Is there a way to skip the BHH part if I add that in if I already have the outfit, sniffy tome, and hounddog? Two of the characters I might be using this with already has all of that.

[icon315]

you could do something like


if (my_name() == "MyMain")

or


if ( ! have_outfit( "Bounty-Hunting Rig" ) && ! have_familiar ($familiar[Jumpsuited Hound Dog]) && ! have_skill($skill[Transcendent Olfaction]) )

if(available_amount($item[bounty-hunting helmet]) > 0)
&& available_amount($item[bounty-hunting pants]) > 0)
&& available_amount($item[bounty-hunting rifle]) > 0)
&& have_familiar($familiar[jumpsuited hound dog])
&& have_skill($skill[Transcendent Olfaction]))

[heeheehee]

if(available_amount($item[filthy lucre]) < 15*(available_amount($item[bounty-hunting helmet])==0).to_int()
+ 15*(available_amount($item[bounty-hunting pants])==0).to_int() + 15*(available_amount($item[bounty-hunting rifle])==0).to_int()
+ 100*(available_amount($item[pompadour'd puppy])==0 || have_familiar($familiar[jumpsuited hound dog])).to_int()
+ 200*(available_amount($item[tome of transcendent olfaction])==0 || have_skill($skill[transcendent Olfaction])).to_int())

Overkill much?

[Bale]

Overkill much?

Oooooh! It's so pretty! I love a pretty little overkill!

[heeheehee]

Erm, yeah. Noticed that there were two item_amount()'s that should've been available_amount()'s. Fixed!

[kain]

but you mean you don't want to collect lucres, just in case something new comes into the BHH? *dances on his pile of 125 'extra' lucre*

[heeheehee]

Yeah, I dunno. If J&S introduced a new item, people* would complain so much more, man.

*Refers to those who either haven't bothered to lucre consistently as well as newbies who still haven't gotten all 345 lucre yet.

[icon315]

Yeah i don't see the point in not taking the bounty, you can always use the foods/drinks

[johnnyponny]

Maybe you should make an option not to autosell giant needle and wolf mask, considering they can be pulverized.

[Bale]

Or you could just change/comment out those lines in the script. It's hardly a big project with hidden repercussions to any change. Just sayin'.

[Xenthes]

Updated the script a bit. It now eats and spleens up to your characters max fullness and spleen, does the bounty hunter using the script listed in the first post and then drinks up to your max drunkness then over drinks.

Thanks to all who suggested changes.

[fraed]

Love your script. works just like I wanted to do myself but I don't know scripting. I am having a problem with the eatdrink script it always runs in sim mode. I have edited the vars_mycharactername.txt file and it still runs in sim mode. I have tried finding info on eatdrink in the other form but didn't find anything there.

Again thanks for a great script.

[icon315]

well not sure what is wrong, but here is a new version i cooked up. it will try to get more free buffs which will help your farming

Thank you. This one worked GREAT. One question I do have is why do the scripts do all the drinking after your done? Sorry I'm a real noob on this.

[Xenthes]

Thank you for using it and the compliment on the script.

So that you have more adventures to use the next day.

[icon315]

i never got that either :P, but if you want to do that before just change

in line 83

eatdrink(fullness_limit(), 0, spleen_limit(), false);

to


eatdrink(fullness_limit(), inebriety_limit(), spleen_limit(), false);

[Winterbay]

I think, at least in the case of dj_d's farming script that chooses from all available locations, that it might be due to the fact that you can end up getting drunker while you adventure and thus it is better to leave drinking until after the adventuring. That's the only reason I can come up with :)

[slyz]

I think it's simply to give you some flexibility. If you ever decide you want to do something other than farming on the next day, at least you'll have adventures banked.

[fronobulax]

Two reason to drink at the end of the day. First, you don't get hosed if you encounter an adventure that increases drunkenness (as was pointed out elsewhere). Second, it makes it easier to manage Ode To Booze efficiently. A good script casts Ode and drinks. A better one creates the drinks, because that could consume adventures, casts Ode and drinks. Either way, the script only has to worry about Ode once.

[icon315]

Yeah i guess, but i when i farm i usually only do it in the castle, or he oasis, and there is no possible way to get more drunk there. also i'm not a fan of wasting time to get ode to booze.

[fraed]

Thank you all for the info.

[dinin991]

I can't seem to get eatdrink to NOT run in simulation mode via the script. I can run it in the CLI just fine but soon as it gets to:



eatdrink(fullness_limit(), 0, spleen_limit(), false);

or

eatdrink(fullness_limit(), inebriety_limit(), spleen_limit(), true);



It seems to only run in simulation mode both times.

Another question, how can I add to the script to use kolmafia's built in breakfast feature?

[slyz]

type zlib eatdrink_simConsume = false in the gCLI.

Just set Mafia to use Mafia's built-in breakfast feature.

[icon315]

cli_execute("breakfast")
should work



Here is a farming script i made for a friend.....for example purposes

[Theraze]

Was looking through the farming script you (icon) made... one note, near the end, you check if smasbot is online, then send items to smashbot. :)

[icon315]

heh, o well

[Camber]

Was looking through the farming script you (icon) made... one note, near the end, you check if smasbot is online, then send items to smashbot. :)

And, one other minor (somewhat humorous) thing with the smash_today() function, you check if wadbot is online, and then send to smashbot anyway :-) We've all made the same copying errors; i know i have!

[Bubba]

er i tried running the script but... it made sum random countdown thing that took like 5 whole minutes before i gave up

[Theraze]

Most likely you're referring to the fact that it calls eatdrink twice (initially above, overdrink below) and eatdrink delays on a 3 second between steps, normally... That means that it can take several minutes to run properly, especially if you have a lot of items. Also, it overdrinks at the end... I've commented out both steps. Here's the version of castle_farming.ash I'm using now. It's based on Xenthes' original script, but with a few tweaks... mainly, it skips EatDrink (though it's still imported, if you choose to just remove the // commenting it out), doesn't sell any thin black candles (because they're fun for demon summoning), and keeps one of each of the sold items in inventory, so if you actually want to use a rave whistle as a moxie plinker, you won't find it suddenly disappearing on you.

You can see if this works for you... your problem bits (the EatDrink) shouldn't affect you with this copy. Or just comment out EatDrink, top and bottom...

Why does it put on a Tuxedo Shirt then buy and drink booze that doesn't benefit from the shirt?
