Hi Everyone,
I had a question (that I included below) but then I took the time to work on the problem myself. I have been able to get the data I want in a format that I can work with BUT I am worried that it may have some issues with the definition of what a mallbot is/isn't.
I am trying to find a way to get the TOTAL amount of an item left in the Mall. I don't mean the price for them, just the total left. Like "a cute angel" only has 41 left in the Mall. This can be done manually but that is a lot of data to go through manually. This isn't a script that I will be running often, maybe once a month (if even that). It would do a search on about 100 items that I do not have but will decrease as I get more.
Below is my original question:
-------------------------------------------------------------------
I know this isn't a high importance variable (or script) to most people but as a collector I was wondering if there was:
Is it possible to tell the total amount of an item remaining in the Mall? If not maybe just the number of stores in the Mall that stock that item?
From kolmafia you can do *searchmall a cute angel* and it will give a total number.
REASON:
As time passes, IoTM/IoTY become rarer as their stocks are limited. I would like to see which items have the lowest inventory so I can make my purchases based off of the amount. I am trying to get the IoTM/IoTY with the least amount of real money
I didn't see anything on Coldfront that had that information and I didn't see anything in the wiki that involved the Mall for that (I could have missed it but it doesn't seem like it was something that would be in high demand).
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Again please note that I am looking for the total amount of items left in the Mall, not the price. Unfortunately the commands I saw all include the item price along with the amount.
Thanks to anyone that reads this!
