do we change that one too? or just the spading one?

Either change both or remove them and tick the preference indicated by slyz.
FWIW, my test of farm decided that the Haunted Conservatory was just the place for a level 62 Pastamancer. I note that canadv was reporting what may have been mis-information. Hopefully Winterbay will have some thoughts since I suspect my next exercise will be getting macguffin to behave.

Mine was running around in the conservatory, the DD and the dungeon of doom for quite some while. I did manage to make some meat from it by actually using the pile of dusty animal bones and getting a bunch of skulls and so on and the boxen has sold quite well...
But, it was some days ago and I then did an "update clear" which seems to have removed some erroneously high mall prices for some items which may have been what was throwing it off. Try that and see if it helps.

I can't get the new farm.ash to work. It keeps stopping in the same place.
I have uncommented some of the print statements, and added a +rec.type to the end of the abort message
(running r8465)
any suggestions on how to track down the problem?

@Morgad - since I am being especially dense, did farm decide to abort or was there an error that made mafia abort the execution of farm?
OK. Not a solution but a couple pointers while I deal with Real Life. farm is doing what it is supposed to. It does not recognize rec.type of q and so it aborts. As far as I can tell the record comes from item_drops_array which is defined and managed by zlib. If I am correct then then a band-aid would be to ignore that record type without aborting. A better solution would be to find out what it means and have farm handle it appropriately. So someone with more time than I have at the moment may want to follow up with research.
Presumably "quest item", since it's applied to $item[half of a memo]. That's really weird, as it should be "c" instead for conditional. Okay, the simplest solution would be to insert
right before the switch statement that ends with the bit that you posted.
Or insert
on its own line, right before
(Untested, as I have no idea what the code looks like, or what the switch statement even is. Just an educated (sorta) guess.)
[And while we're reporting errors with monsters.txt, snakehead charrrm (dropped by gaudy pirate) should be "c", not "".]
PHP:
if(rec.type=="q") rec.type = "c";Or insert
PHP:
case "q":
PHP:
case "c":(Untested, as I have no idea what the code looks like, or what the switch statement even is. Just an educated (sorta) guess.)

dumb question - I am using Zlib version 20, is that the correct version for farm.ash?
added the following path to ignore it, does not quite work, keeps looping on the same monster :-(
but the new mafia release that has just come out might fix things ... will know in a hour
many thanks
Dave

I didn't know that there was a "q" category. It's not listed under the item_drops_array entry in the wiki. The script was behaving as intended since it is set to abort if item_drops_array returns an unknown value which it did in this case.
Duplicating any of the b, 0 or c entries and changing to a q really should solve that problem (unless the change to conditional drops instead of q in the recent update solved that problem).
The "print("Item and meat reset performed");" was mainly there for my debugging purposes when I redid the loops and really doesn't do anything (it can be safely removed).
On the "running to strange places" I can't really do anything since my script, which should be the same that is here (apart from a few modifications to canadv), does not do that. It currently farms the dooks for 15 turns and the goes to the castle for the rest. The changes to canadv has nothing to do with the conservatory.
As an attempt to debug this issue could you check your session log for the top 5 entries on where to go to farm?

Mafia version 8470
eatdrink was called from an .ash script with "eatdrink(13,inebriety_limit(),spleen_limit(),false,1400,0,0,1400,false);"
Everything goes as expected with the eating... now the drinking
Would have looped the canteen until rollover.. because I'm already 22 drunk. 3 TPSs and rocking wagon.

I had the same occurrence as Ranrar =(

Ok. Today mine was trying to run around in the conservatory. In order to see why I stopped it and checked my historical_price() of "pile of dusty animal bones" which turned out to be ~1600. Doing a mall_price() instead gave the result ~650 and rerunning the script after that put the conservatory way down in the list of places to try. So it seems that the reason it goes to the conservatory is due to the mall price of the dusty animal bones (which is as should be), what I can't understand is why it would vary that quick up and down. Seeing as the price seems to diminish by 1 each time I guess ti could be an effect of enough people using the farm script and thus pushing the price downwards.
If you wish to solve this I suggest typing the following into the CLI:
Code:
zlib vars farm_minAgeLookup = 0.25That should hopefully recheck the price of your dusty animal bones. If that does not work then the following alias for farm might be a good idea:
Code:
alias farmer => ash mall_price($item[pile of dusty animal bones]); cli_execute("call /scripts/farm.ash");where you need to change the path of your famr.ash to what it is.
Yep. That's what it looks like. Presumably it didn't recognize you had overdrunk and stop. I'll dig into it.
(Fun fact 1 - I don't run this on my character with a TPS because sangia del diablo is cheaper to make than a cherry bomb, but I am on the cherry bomb consumption leader-board. I'd link to that but http://www.noblesse-oblige.org is showing up as a malware host at the moment. Fun fact 2 - HelpDesk support can buy lots of time and smooth feathers just by responding to a customer and restating what the customer said the problem was).
Update to EatDrink
I am trying to be fully automated and was getting annoyed about being asked to drink milk when I don't have any and can't get any. So change number one is a new preference eatdrink_suppressNoMilk. It defaults to false so nothing will happen unless you set the variable to true in your data\vars_USER.txt file in which case, if you are like me, you will no longer be annoyed.
The second change may address the problem Ranrar was reporting above. If you fail to drink and are already over the limit then it will stop looking for more things to drink. I think it will address the problem but I can't personally test it.
dj_d will probably spin a new release Real Soon Now with my changes. However, since my test character has yet to do the Level 11 and 12 quests and there are some concerns about Ascend in those areas, we may wait until I get through them.
Update: See the first post for a link to the latest version.
