In the discussion of a nag feature (here) I speculated about Multitool, a new thing that users could download that would check for various mafia preconditions. My original vision was a shell script that only used native OS commands and there would be one each for *nix, Mac and Windows. A...

Since comments here are actually getting a response, I will make a couple comments in case someone is interested in doing something. I have had several hardcore runs stop because "can't cook fancy foods without a range" or something similar. I tried to resolve the issue by manually doing...

Good point. I lived in a world where it was not safe to assume any version of Java was installed so I was restricting myself to things that were almost certainly guaranteed to be present. Maybe I don't need to do that. (Tangent. I had a colleague who took great joy in preaching the...

What made you decide you needed to stop autoscend because of what was, or wasn't happening? I have done 11 runs recently and the Hidden City wasn't anything I had to do manually. Is the issue getting and using the map or getting the nostril or something else? Philosophically I think the...

More frequent updates where the new version has obvious benefits for the user who updates is a fair point. I should remember the philosophical change from deliberately not supporting Crimbo during Crimbo to making multiple updates a day to support Crimbo content as it was spaded. Keeping...

Maybe from this time forward I will remember that what I thought I knew was wrong. Thank you.

Philosophically, why do we specify a minimum version? Is it because we KNOW maifa won't work or because we don't want to deal with it in case it doesn't work. We can use one version for code features and compliance and another for bytecode and JVM. Does that change the nature of the solution...

This was buried in https://kolmafia.us/threads/proposal-require-java-21.30044/#post-175968 and is currently a PR https://github.com/kolmafia/kolmafia/pull/2686 The proposal is to display a message telling users that they are not running Java 24 which they will soon need. I don't like nag...

I deleted and reinstalled and the "error" disappeared. I have no clue why but accept that whatever it was, it was my problem.

My limited experiments showed that if I typed <command> in chat nothing happened, but if I edited the command before sending so that the bracketed monster ID portion was no longer part of what was sent in chat, the fax arrived.

I don't recall specifically what I did. I think I uninstalled the SVN version - either via KoLmafia, manually deleting files or both. I then reinstalled from the Scripts menu. I'll just uninstall and reinstall. I wondered if it was on your end because some of other scripts had problems...

When mafia goes to update scripts I get this Updating project Veracity0-meat-farm Pull Failed to update project Veracity0-meat-farm: org.eclipse.jgit.api.errors.NoHeadException: Cannot check out from unborn branch I can certainly uninstall and reinstall but this "feels" like a configuration...

See https://kolmafia.us/threads/monster-id-and-fax.29736/#post-174772 which is when I "discovered" EasyFax doesn't. I may have mentioned it elsewhere including someplace where I wondered about removing EasyFax (and CheeseFax) because they effectively weren't working. No one seemed to like...

Seems to have been fixed based on spending one adventure :-)

The test above is in https://github.com/kolmafia/kolmafia/pull/2471 and it passes after the Mutex fix. I am still trying to apply lessons learned from the current thread to other tests in 2471 but if anyone wants to review it that would be fine.

OK. I think the thing that was different from what I expected was that (in some sense) the test was "change, or not, acc1". I have seen cases (not necessarily in tests) where the maximizer does change the slot of an accessory even though the score is not effected, so I would tend to write a...

Thank you. What I am missing then is how something(?) decides that "equip acc1" is not the same as as recommending something for ACCESSORY1. Is there a (KoLmafia) semantic that I am misunderstanding that says emitting a command to equip something does not imply that the Maximizer recommended it?

I added it to https://github.com/kolmafia/kolmafia/pull/2471/files# in hopes that my non-failing maximizer tests might get some more eyeballs. :-) The line assertThat(getBoosts(), not(hasItem(recommendsSlot(Slot.ACCESSORY1)))); generated an error Expected: not a collection containing slot...

I can't look myself at the moment but I think there is either a KoL or a KolMafia checkbox (or preference) which allows equipment to be taken from other familiars. What you describe is expected behavior for one state.

Tests that use the resetting client require infrastructure that I just have not convinced myself I understand enough to create. Since the resetting client was created to address a problem that is, or will be fixed, in Java 21 I have been toying with ripping it out. But if GOAWAY is still a...
