ckb Standard Ascension Script

This is a skill and item heavy ascension script. It will (mostly) reliably do a 2-day SC run or a 2 or 3-day HC run. There are separate scripts for each.


Code:
svn checkout https://svn.code.sf.net/p/ckbstd/code/


For HardCore:
Any class will work.
Take Knoll sign (tuned to your mainstat), Astral pilsners.
The script will attempt the finish 2019 HC in 3 days. If you get lucky and think you can finish in 2 days, go for it!


For SoftCore:
Any class will work.
Take Knoll sign (tuned to your mainstat), Astral pilsners.


Notes:
Make sure the "Breakfast" login checkbox is NOT checked.

I wrote this firstly to hunt factoids and HC/SC Standard reward items. Mostly because finding those last factoids for the tower guardians was a pain and seemed to take forever. This started as a 2-day SC script, but was later adapted to do 3-day HC runs too.
The script and combat was designed to run fast, which means it is not necessarily optional always. This script macro-ifies all (or most) combats, so they run quickly (and also open loop).
There are some key things it does that the script needs, so if you tinker with it and replace it, make sure it does the same things in the same places (like use items or copy monsters).
The script will also change your before and after adventure scripts to its own. The script will change your counter script to use its own. You should note this and change them back when you are done. This is kind of unkind scripting, but it works for me, so I am warning you here.


Requirements:
The script has heavy requirements, and without lots of IOTMs and skills, it will likely fail. I have all the skills and all the items, so it was written to use them. If you lack something it needs, it likely will not succeed.

There used to be a list here of stuff you needed, but it is a pain to update every year. Just have every skill and every item and every familiar you will be fine.

More notes:

The script now runs through the NS tower (completely). It will try to buff for the Tower Contests (Init, elemental, offstat), but it will abort if you cannot pass them at full strength. Once you have passed all those tests, re-run the script. It will fight the guardians and climb the tower and kill the NS.


You should definitely watch this as it runs. Something might get messed up. I hope not, but I can't guarantee it. If something looks wrong, abort it and check. Re-running it will just pick up where it left off.
I have made a large number of runs with it, but also tweaks, and you only get 1 shot at debugging per run. Last run I stepped away and it burned an extra 120 advs in the Spooky forest. Be warned.

Also, there are a few places it could get more optimal and more efficient. I would gladly take suggestions and feedback. This is one driver for me releasing this - It could use some help and robustness that will come with more runs.


Open items:
  • Faster Zeppelin


SoftCore pull list (The script will use these if you have them):
  • Shore Inc. Ship Trip Scrip
  • Spooky-Gro fertilizer
  • replica bat-oomerang
  • ninja carabiner
  • ninja crampons
  • ninja rope
  • disposable instant camera
  • blackberry galoshes
  • wet stew
  • drum machine
  • killing jar

  • rusty hedge trimmers
  • Mohawk wig
  • book of matches
  • star
  • line
  • white pixel
  • amulet of extreme plot significance
  • stench jelly

Thank you very much - this looks very promising!

I tried the Softcore script today and ran into the following:

1. ckb-SCstd.ash calls WarAdvance() which is nowhere defined
2. it installs a CCS that calls "consult ckb-consult.ash", but this script isn't included in the svn checkout

I'm quite happy to continue trying to use it :)

Kind regards,

[0-9]

Fixed both. #1 was from a modification to the HC script that did not get propagated to the SC version. #2 was me forgetting to commit that.

Having just installed this for the first time, using the KoL Mafia version 16512, ckb-SCstd.ash got me "No matching CCS found!" Is there some installation step that I missed?

Separately, I get the difference between HCStd.ash and SCStd.ash, but what's Standard.ash? Casual standard?

CCS should be fixed now (I had the wrong entry for the SC ccs script).
Also, the HCStd.ash does the HC run, SCStd.ash does the SC run, and Standard.ash is all the support functions to do the actual quests.

Lastly, all my past runs were HC, so I feel good about the HC script running smoothly. I have not done a SC run since my HC updates, so let me know if you run into any other issues.

Code:
Council of Loathing

Welcome, Adventurer. Your first order of business should be to visit the Toot Oriole. He lives atop Mt. Noob, in the Big Mountains.

Talking to the Crackpot Mystic
Accepting quest to find the Untinker's screwdriver

Visiting the Untinker
Untinkering clockwork pirate skull...
untinker * clockwork pirate skull

Visiting the Untinker
Accepting quest to find the Untinker's screwdriver

Visiting the Untinker
untinker * clockwork pirate skull
Successfully untinkered clockwork pirate skull
Verifying ingredients for enchanted eyepatch (1)...
You need 1 more eyepatch to continue.

It then stopped. I have not yet visited the Oriole, the woods is still closed, I still have a clockwork pirate skull in inventory.

It looks like it tries to untinker the clockwork pirate skull before visiting the Toot Oriole and returning to the Council to get the quest for the mosquito, which unlocks the woods.

EDIT: Visiting the Oriole, selling the gems, talking to the crazy old man, unlocking the untinkerer and getting the eyepatch manually. Ran the script again, which restarted it from scratch, pulling items from Hangks. Being able to recover when it hangs would be good, if possible.

So, I'm looking at a dead Naughy Sorceress, ten adventures left, and a brand-new polyester panama hat at day #2, 532 turns played.

Thank you very much!

I did have to modify ckb-SCstd.ash to not include the call to

set_property("customCombatScript","ckb1-aftercore.ccs");

and I also had to make SCDay2 to not abort even though I'm not ckb1.

Also, I had to get some clockwork pirate skulls and spectral pickles prior to ascending, and I had to manually do some levelling. Also also, the script stopped before the NS quest, but apparently had prepared everything including the keys, so that was very easy to do.

So, this indeed makes it much much easier to get some polyester near the end of the year. Thank you very much again!!

That 2/532 run sounds about right. So looks like it was (mostly) working.
I fixed the ccs issue some more, and got rid of that abort that I missed earlier.

The SC script, if you run it in aftercore, will check the list of pull requirements.That may be helpful for setup (though you can buy some stuff in-run if you need to).
Also, the script does not yet finish the NS tower. Partially because this is easy to do manually, partially because I originally wrote it to hunt tower guardian factoids and I wanted to do those fights manually, and partly because I just have not yet gotten around to it.

That is really weird. Looks like something got really confused somehow. The first thing the SC script does is pull 20 items for the day. So if it is trying to untinker without the skull, then something went all borked indeed. I added a bit more redundancy check for Day1 pull to avoid future issues (hopefully).

I may have not described the situation properly. It did pull the skull, but then tried to untinker it (and other forest village tasks) before a. talking to the toot oriole and b. talking to the council after that to get the mosquito quest (which actually unlocks the forest).

You used to be able to untinker without unlocking the woods. It's possible that KoL fixed that bug.

Can you post your session log from when it started the pulls to when it got the error? That would help. Looking at the script, I cannot see where it would have gone wrong (it should automatically visit the council and unlock the woods).

Verifying ingredients for enchanted eyepatch (1)...
You need 1 more eyepatch to continue.

I've bolded the portion I think is particularly relevant here; it looks like it visits the council twice, and doesn't visit Toot and read the letter from the king in the middle.

EDIT: yeah, looking at ckb-SCstd.ash, lines 152 and 153 are both "council();", and then it moves directly into //Do stuff to open woods. I don't know how to fix it, but that's probably the issue.

EDIT2: After talking to Toot and reading the letter the script ran through the end of day 1. There were a couple hiccups (I had to manually level some to get to level 8 because the script wouldn't move on), but mostly nothing that restarting the script didn't solve.

New post, because new issue: there's no check for whether you're leveled enough to go to the Airship, it just tries, and then grinds to a halt if it can't. At level 9:

Code:
> call scripts\ckb-SCstd.ash

Conditions list cleared.
CCS set to ckb-custom
manaBurningTrigger => 0.80
hpAutoRecovery => 0.50
Day 2!

The owner of the Typical Tavern is still bugging us about his rat problems. Perhaps you could help him?

You still have unfinished business with the Trapper, Adventurer.

The Highland Lord, Black Angus, still needs your help, Adventurer.

Here you go:

Two things I can think of:
Are you a knoll moon sign (Unlocks Degrassi Knoll)? You need to be Wallaby / Mongoose / Vole.
Are you running Bale's NewLife script? Because I am, and that starts the beginning quests. That might be borking it in the beginning.

I am a Knoll sign, but no, I haven't been running NewLife, because you didn't mention it as a requirement. I'll do so in the future.

I added a Newlife-like bit if code to visit the toot and start the quests. That should make needing NewLife unnecessary (though it is good for lots of other things).
Also, I added a L10 check before the airship. Although I am very surprised this happened, as my runs never had any issues with leveling once I was past L8.

That one's my fault. I'm lacking a couple of the ML buffs (puffin, drescher) and I hadn't moved the Chateau stat gain item to Myst when I went from doing the Mox classes to the Myst classes, which definitely lost me some ground.

A new interesting problem: when drinking booze on day one, I got a fascinating error: "[¶-1] has no matches." This happened immediately after successfully consuming three Paint A Vulgar Pitchers, so I'm assuming it's an issue with line 327 from ckb-SCstd.ash: "drink(1,TurkeyBooze());". For whatever reason, the script has not yet used my Fist Turkey at all this run yet, and no pulls have been dedicated to that booze, so I'm not sure how I'm supposed to have acquired it.

What is the expected outcome here?
