Best Between Battle Script Ever -- formerly AutoMCD

Confirmed that case was matching what was actually in the filesystem. Something in mafia is coalescing the name of the script to lowercase.
Specifically, it looks like the call to CLI-execute the script coaleses the input to lowercase.
Bug reported, patch attached to bug.

Well, depends. By the time I'm where coin purses / wallets can drop for me, meat for buffs/recovery usually isn't an issue, so I just collect them, or munch them at ascension time. Your best bet is probably to add them to the cleanup filter, where I believe (correct me if I'm wrong on this) Kolmafia will auto-consume them when you trigger a cleanup.
If your recovery and other meat-using scripts trigger an abort properly when you're out of meat, then this isn't really an issue, and if it isn't directly related to a zone goal, you probably don't want to auto-consume items.
For a practical example of this perhaps not being wise, observe when briefcases were hot during 2008 Crimbo.

I'm having trouble with BBB's turtle taming functionality. It has to do with the turtle condition BBB sets and the way my script is using the adventure() command. My script is adventuring in the Thugnderdome one adventure at a time like so (very simplified version):
With a condition set from BBB my script adventures once at the Thugnderdome and then Mafia sees that the condition was not satisfied and stops my script.
I realize I could just turn the taming functionality off, but I really don't mind it as long as it doesn't stop the script. I could rework the entire while loop I'm using, but I'd rather not (it is more complicated then what I posted above). Does anyone have an idea on how I can leave BBB's taming on and have it not stop the execution of my script or should I just turn off the taming functionality?

while(this)
adventure(1,$location[Thugnderdome]);

@gausie: That's kind of what I did by making it autosell meat stacks. The key difference here is that selling meat stacks is reversible, but using container items is not. And since meat is not an item, I can't make using meat containers goal-sensitive. I'll think about adding a switchable option, but it's not high on my list.
This does bring up an intriguing idea:
A "meat recovery" script, which attempts to keep your available meat above a specified threshold (which would perhaps be a function of your level). It would work exactly like a recovery script but fire every time your meat drops below a certain point. The script would maintain liquid meat by 1) taking available meat from other accessible locations, 2) (creating and) using meat-containing items, and finally 3) autoselling expendable inventory.
Interesting.
@Ninj: seems like there must be a better method for detecting when you've gotten your turtle than adding the zone's available turtle to your goals, but I haven't thought of it yet. Simply tracking inventory would be iffy.
In the meantime, capture the return value of adventure() if possible. Even an empty block would work, i.e. if (adventure(1,loc)) {}

I'll give that a try. Thanks.
I have a meat_check.ash that I having been using with my personal ascension suite that is similar to this. Right now it's being called as an unconditional trigger. It's in it's rudimentary stages right now so the amount of meat to keep on hand could definitely be calculated better but for now it looks like this:
Code:
import <auto_quest.ash>
int safemeat;
if(my_level() > 10)
safemeat = 750;
else if(my_level() > 5)
safemeat = 500;
else if(my_level() <= 5)
safemeat = 100;
if(my_meat() < safemeat)
farm(safemeat,"to ensure enough meat is on hand for restoratives");The only problem with setting it as an unconditional trigger is it doesn't seem to fire when adventuring inside of a while loop. I'm not completely clear on when an unconditional trigger actually triggers?

I just around to checking out the current version of BBB.
zarqon, I hadn't looked at this in a while. It seems that you've added in everything my personal version did better. That was part of my reason for sharing it, so I feel awesome! (Mana burning is irrelevant now that veracity fixed up mafia's summoning for burning.) You also added in some other wonderful things I hadn't thought of. I still made a personal version to use as a mood just because I like to personalize all scripts I use, but it is virtually identical to your own now. Wonderful!
PS. Was friendlyset() inspired by similar code in newLife, or is this just a case of great minds thinking alike?

Hmmm, I could have sworn I already posted a response to this. I remember writing it. Argh. Try again, shorter this time.
Bale, thanks for the kind words. If you think of any other improvements to make, don't hesitate to suggest them. (I say that knowing that probably only a natural disaster could prevent you from sharing any improvements you may devise.)
About friendlyset(): I do remember that being an odd moment. I had just added that in, maybe a day or two before checking out newLife, and saw that you had a very similar thing going. Great minds.

It seems the new version of ZLib (14) breaks BestBetweenBattle-- at least on my copy of Mafia. Here's the error message I get:
Function 'load_current_map( string, turtle_rec [location] )' defined multiple times (bestbetweenbattle.ash, line 289)
I'm running v13.8, no revision. Help?

Actually, mafia handles librams skills as part of its mana burning. If you want it to be more specific in which libram skills it uses, a script/command would be useful, otherwise just adjust your MP burning settings (and make sure you have the right stuff checked in preferences).

there's it in its entirety. i titled it fireandforget.ash but its not a fitting title as i still have to maximize before, overstuff my familiar, autosell and feed candy. but strangely, i like doing all that manually sometimes.
but i believe the last cli_execute is what you wanted to see.
Code:
import <EatDrink.ash>;
void main()
{
eatdrink(fullness_limit(), inebriety_limit(), spleen_limit(), false, false);
while (adv > 0)
{
cli_execute("cast * Summon brickos");
adventure (1, $location["Giant's Castle"]);
}
eatdrink(fullness_limit(), inebriety_limit(), spleen_limit(), true, false);
cli_execute("use 5 bricko brick");
cli_execute("csend 1 bricko bat to zarqon");
}but i believe the last cli_execute is what you wanted to see.
Is there some reason you do it this way rather than, say, "create( 1, $item[BRICKO bat] )"?
I've never understood why people like to do a "cli_execute" of a CLI command from ASH when there is a built-in ASH function which does exactly the same thing.
