bumcheekcend.ash - A zero setup semi-automated ascension script!

Yep, most likely. Unless you had had a better +HP weapon I guess.
Changing the line of the maximize command from "cli_execute("maximize hp");" to "cli_execute("maximize hp, -equip black kettle drum");" should solve it I guess but won't let you use the drum for increasing your HP.
 
I have to play with this some more...and I didn't mean it started in 0.28.

I ran the script earlier today on a multi and it stopped when the counter checker fired, and in the CLI it showed where my last semi-rare was and how long before. I grabbed that, adventured once and ate another cookie so I believe it'll work fine tomorrow on that multi. If so I'll double check I'm running things the same on my main and see how it goes.

Ok, I'm not crazy. 0.28 script, mafia r9560, and counterchecker fires but the ascend script keeps going. Yesterday on my multi's account the script stopped and I grabbed distilled wine. Today on that account I had 1 adventure before the semi-rare after logging in so I manually did that, grabbed a knob lunchbox, and adventured in the pyramid and fought a tomb servant. I then ate a fortune cookie to set the counter and then fired up the script. Here's the CLI output:

Yup...I missed a semi-rare for sure in there. :(
 
The clue to your problem is here:
Code:
Semi-rares choices are not     automated in hardcore or ronin.

Go to the counterchecker thread and find what the variable is named that you need to change. Set that to true and it will work.

If that works, here's another person that will love you. :)

I believe this is the setting I'm looking for, so we'll see how that works out.
Code:
set BaleCC_SrInHC = true
 
I've noticed there are several places where BCCAccend just will not stop. Ballroom / Gallery leveling... you can mash on the escape button all you like, the script will not give up.

While that setting allow you to get a Sr, it takes the "most expensive in the mall" and in HC, that's not what you want. We need BCCAccend to stop at the CounterChecker so we can get our own semi rare, so we can get something useful.

Thank you for this script.
 
If you don't have a CounterChecker I think Mafia just aborts, doesn't it?

Also, it is possible to modify the CC script to only pick the ineteresting ones in HC but that takes some poking around.
 
the while() wrappers around the adventure calls stop the script from aborting for counters.

This is the intended bhaviour and will not be modified. Talk to Bale about how o set up your counterchecker scripts, or modify them yourselves - bccascend is working as intended.
 
First, I'd like to thank BumCheekCity for writing this script, its quite amazing.

I'm running the latest hourly build (9593) and running in softcore. I have the counterchecker, and the universalrecovery scripts active. The only issues I've run into so far are: I am always running out of meat (5 shore trips early in the run was expensive, I usually wait to do the 5th trip until level 11); I have no need to get the hippy outfit, in SC I pull the war outfit, and all consumables...
 
I must be completely honest with you, this works MILES above what I expected from an automatic script. However, there are some issues which I'm either too stupid to fix myself or aren't taken into account by the script itself. I am using it to complete a full HC ascension as Moxie, and it's performing admirably. Two things I noted, though, is that it tends to use a lot of meat when coupled with Bale's Universal Recovery (which, I suppose, might be fixed by acquiring a decent skillset) and also it does NOT use olfaction. Did I configure anything wrong, or should I just use a Custom Combat Script to have Mafia olfact what I find useful?

For me, who tend to do HC runs (which is what the script was first intended for), getting the Hippy store opened pretty early on is great for getting cheap food and booze, which I guess is why it go to get the hippy outfit as soon as it can adventure there safely.

Still, I too get out of meat a lot, but I blame this on being in Beecore (never had any problem with meat in a HCNP run before).

Olfaction should be done via your CCS. I find the fairly unintelligent "olfact bloopers, dairy goats, etc., and attack everything else" works very well.

Otherwise, yes, I know that meat usage is a bit of a problem, though I haven't generally found it to be terrible myself, even for low-skill characters. There's nothing much I can suggest except using universal_recovery and tweaking your recovery settings appropriately. An early healing skill may well be very useful, and turn off the MCD via the relay options script.
 
I love this script! One thing I wonder about, though, is whether it could be made to satisfice for Moxie rather than maximize it. For example, when I manually adventure, I wear a chef hat at low levels because my moxie is already high enough. Similarly, it would be nice if the script could maximize for regen subject to moxie requirements. Or something like that, I don't know anything about scripting or if this is possible.
 
Unfortunately the maximize()-command doesn't support limits on things. You can add mp-restore as a switch to use but there is really no way of specifying "I want to maximize up to 100 moxie, and then go for MP-recovery".

You can, actually. "maximize 5000 moxie max 100, mp regen min, mp regen max" should do it. Or maybe 100*5000 for the max if you put 5000 in to weight moxie very heavily.
