New Content - Implemented March 2012 IOTM - Happy Medium

[GValko]

It appears to be some form of replacement to the Knob Goblin Organ Grinder, except instead of food, it gives booze.

The medium has an aura that grows in intensity from blue to orange, to red, and during those periods you can obtain booze. The booze depends on the monster's type and medium's aura color.

Yes, there are now 66 new drinks. Most phyla of booze also gives an effect that appears to grow from 5->10->15 turns depending on the aura. Others restore HP/MP in a similiar fashion

Here's at least a list of the new items found so far, this is just going to take a while.

Consumption notes:
All booze is 2 inebriety.
Red aura booze appears to give 8-9 adventures, so 4.25 adv/drunk.

Anyway a bit of an expansion:

Consumption data:

Can't comment too much on substat gains, but the adventure yields are pretty simple.

Blue aura booze gives 4 or 5 adventures, so average of 2.25 turns/drunkeness. It has no level restriction. It will grant 5 turns of the associated effect.
Orange aura booze gives 6 or 7 adventures, so average of 3.25 turns/drunkeness. It has a level 4 restriction. It will grant 10 turns of the associated effect.
Red aura booze gives 8 or 9 adventures, so average of 4.25 turns/drunkeness. It has a level 9 restriction. It will grant 15 turns of the associated effect.

The new effects are:
Beasts:

Other already implemented effects:
Mer-Kin & Fish drinks grant Fishy.
Crimbo drinks give Holiday Bliss
Plants & constellations restore MP.
Humanoids restore HP.

There's also going to be a major expansion of phylum since the Medium can classify a lot of monsters that otherwise were indeterminate.

The wiki listed that the penguin drinks also gave fishy last time I checked. This may or may not be correct however

I had not drunk one, so I am not totally sure. It could be, I think there's a group I missed.

[xKiv]

Requires charging like the fairy boots, but has 3 stages of charging. 1 2 3 exclamation points? ! !! !!

Worse yet, the current charge is indicated by different familiar images: medium_0.gif, medium_1.gif, medium_2.gif, medium_3.gif.

 

[roippi]

There's an in-combat message that we can parse, but yes we should also look at the charpane image when appropriate.

 

[xKiv]

You can't parse combat messages that happen outside mafia anyway. Or ones that happen in response to mafia's requests, but the server response doesn't make it back to mafia.
And I don't even know what all problems can happen when the image in the charpane doesn't match the "canonical" image. Hopefully none.

 

[Veracity]

I bought one. Of course, I have a whole series of Axecore runs to do, so I'll only be looking at it a little bit in aftercore, every however many days.

api.php returns "familiarpic", so we can see what the state of the familiar is when we log in. Ditto for when we look at the charpane, every time it refreshes.

Obviously, I have no experience with the familiar, yet, but I think it would reasonable to track that and cool to dynamically change the image on the green sidepane of the GUI to dynamically update to reflect the current image.

 

[slyz]

The number of drinks you can get each day isn't limited?

 

[roippi]

Doesn't look like it - the number of grinder pies isn't limited either.

There's a linear progression for how long it takes to charge each aura, 3+(N*siphons). That means it takes 9 combats to get to red the first time, 12 the second time, 15 the third..

 

[Veracity]

Revision 10720 detects the current familiar image from api.php and charpane.php and displays it in the green sidepane, rather than whatever the "default" image is for the current familiar.

KoLCharacter.currentFamiliarImage has the file name (sans path and .gif) and will thus be usable for tracking the current state of this familiar elsewhere.

 

[roippi]

I have some workable code written up for tracking siphons and the current state of the aura. Right now I have it implemented as two preferences "_mediumSiphons" and "_happyMediumAura". The former obviously needs to be a preference; should the latter? Scripters will want access to the state of the aura, so a preference seems like a reasonable place to put that information, though it's not information we need to store between sessions.

 

[lostcalpolydude]

Why have "happy" as part of one name and not the other?

 

[roippi]

not really the feedback I was going for, but point taken.

 

[xKiv]

Having it as a preference means I can grep it from the files with external tools without mafia, right? For whatever that might be worth.

 

[slyz]

I would go with a preference too, to match the way the Organ Grinder, for example, is tracked.

 

[Veracity]

Having the aura as a preferences mean we have to write it every time it changes. Preferences.setString will do that; it will compare the value to the existing one and only actually set it - with associated disk I/O - if it changed. But, in general, I'd prefer to keep things that are only valid within the session as ASH functions, rather than preferences.

As slyz says, we do track the organ grinder exclusively with preferences, but the difference is that there is no way to figure out "_piePartsCount" by looking at the charpane.

But adding a special ASH function just for one feature of this familiar is irritating, too.

Use preferences, I guess.

 

[Theraze]

Well, if it could be a proxy field, but that would mean that 99% of familiars would have that proxy field as empty, so I don't know if that's worse. The various familiars that use charges though, including the medium, grinder, and stomping boots could all use that charges proxy field.
