I know I'm late in posting this, but has anyone seen this: "No match attempted or previous match failed (witchess_solver.ash, line 104)" I get it when I try and run the script. If I have opened witchess manually, I don't get this, and the script runs fine...

I just got this message too. I have the most recent build of Mafia, as well.
 
I get this as well in the exact same situations. Why it wouldn't detect that Witchess isn't active and try to go there BEFORE attempting a solution... is beyond me.

Here's what I did to combat the issue. There's probably a better way to do it, but I couldn't think of one.

Code:
void main()
{
	visit_url("campground.php");
	visit_url("campground.php?action=witchess");
	visit_url("choice.php?whichchoice=1181&option=2&pwd");  
	visit_url("choice.php?whichchoice=1181&option=1&pwd"); 
	visit_url("campground.php?action=witchess"); 

	cli_execute("call witchess_solver.ash");
}

Can you post the actual error? Is line 104 part of the witchess script?


"No match attempted or previous match failed (witchess_solver.ash, line 104)"


Get the same error whether I run your rollover script or the witchess script directly, so it would seem that's where the error is happening. It is the same error you posted here in post #42 above. I tried copy/pasting your fix from post #46 into the witchess script to no avail.

I remember dealing with this. I believe it happens when the script comes across a puzzle it hasn't solved for you yet. For some reason, I also think it happens before you have the full puzzle buff available too.

I used to manually go into my witchess set, and open a puzzle, not solve it, and re-run the script. If that doesn't do it, try having mafia auto solve 1 puzzle, and re-run.

Your suggestion helped and after opening the witchess set in my campground, opening a puzzle, then leaving, the script started back up again.


Thanks!

Not sure if this is a bug, or if there's already a fix somewhere and I just haven't found it yet. I was using the most recent build, but when witchess_solver.ash failed I switched to the earliest build showing. Still failed. Hope I inserted the gCLI msg correctly, never used the code function before.

Code:

@gausie This seems to be unexpected fallout from adding the `path` type. First erroring line in the script:
Code:
path[writeX + "," + writeY] = 0;

We probably ought to mark path as a reserved keyword, among other things.

@snooty The last revision that this works for as-is is probably r26712. If you're feeling adventurous, you can open up the script file in, say, notepad, and do a search+replace of "path" -> "witchess_path".

Okay, now this is *super* weird. I checked for days and saw zero replies, so I reverted to the old witchess solver. Thanks for the response, and I hope it helps anyone else that runs into this issue!
