Released CounterChecker v1.499​


This is the "Hooray for Vanya's Chapel" release.

You can tell I'm saving up for the number 1.5. I better finally add that feature.

Problem with the chapel code... it checks if you have negative whips, not if you actually have them available. This part:
Code: 
 case $location[Chapel]:
  foreach i in $ints[458, 4596, 4589, 4590, 4591]
   if(available_amount(to_item(i)) < 0 ) return false;
  return true;
needs to be more like:
Code: 
 case $location[Chapel]:
  foreach i in $ints[4596, 4589, 4590, 4591]
   if(available_amount(to_item(i)) > 0 ) return true;
  return false;

sylz... no. Your solution won't work either. The logic for entering the Chapel is more complicated than that.

Yeah, I screwed up by having the first one for the CT in there. Works if you remove that one, but... Eh. :)

It's still not working for some reason. I looks like the script equipped my pixel morning star and continuum transfunctioner, but then the zone responded as if I wasn't properly equipped, CC assumed it was the wrong adventure number and returned to adventuring in the castle, where I promptly found a semirare (indicating that no adventures were actually spent in the Chapel).

From the log…

Code: 
Checking counters now.
Getting a pixel stopwatch which is currently selling in the mall for 19,875 meat.
+offhand +equip continuum transfunctioner, +equip pixel morning star

[100115] Chapel
Encounter:

Oops, that wasn't the right number!

[100115] Giant's Castle
Encounter: All The Rave
You acquire an item: Mick's IcyVapoHotness Inhaler

And the next time around (directly from KoLmafia, which includes something the log didn't capture)…

Code: 
Checking counters now.
Getting a pixel stopwatch which is currently selling in the mall for 19,875 meat.
Internal checkpoint created.
+offhand +equip continuum transfunctioner, +equip pixel morning star

As far as I can tell, it doesn't appear that the script is actually equipping anything.

Do you actually own a pixel morning star currently? According to your second quote, it failed to equip it...

It would be better for the script to just equip the continuum transformer and the chapel_weapon(), and simply maximize with "-offhand" (and "-weapon" if chapel is true).

I am shamefully a total noob.

I have currently finished my very first ascension (that is the first one that's no-path casual) and haven't yet ascended.

I am doing a little meat-farming/bounty hunter lucre harvesting/ultra-rare round robin.
(I am spending an equal amount of adventures going to:
The Misspelled Cemetary
The Spooky Forest
Treasury
The Icy Peak
The Sleazy Back Alley
The Haunted Billiards Room
in the hopes of randomly hitting the ultra-rare lottery)

I guess I am a bit hesitant to do another ascension while I still have a strong character at the moment. I will take the plunge soon enough.

Meanwhile I have discovered kolmafia (hooray!) and it has made such shenanigans pretty darn easy.

I have started to look into using scripts such as CounterChecker as an aid to my searching around for rare items.

I remain utterly confused about what it is CounterChecker does, however, but remain hopeful given the very first post of the thread which mentions semi-rares....

So... how do I actually *use* this script?
I have added counterchecker.ash and zlib.ash to the .kolmafia/scripts directory. It shows up under the Scripts item in the menu.

It asked for and I entered:
Please input a value for string name: HI
Please input a value for int remain: 33

Now what?
I apologize for being so ignorant on how to actually use the scripts for kolmafia. Please feel free to point me to a link that explains it more clearly. I have looked for such a link but haven't yet found it.

Anyway, thanks for the hard work.

Your problem is probably one of these:

  • In the instructions you may have missed step 3.
    copy-paste set counterScript = CounterChecker.ash in the CLI.
    Once you do this it will trigger automatically.

  • You seem generally confused about semi-rares. Are you aware that you need to eat a fortune cookie to know when they occur? This script will only trigger if you have eaten a fortune cookie.

Tried again with a pixel whip, pixel chain whip, and pixel morning star in inventory (as well as a continuum transfunctioner, of course), but still no dice.

I don't really have time right now. I'll look at the problem later. Can you post your session log from where it failed? I'm hoping there's an informative error.

Doesn't the +offhand force that as the only slot it can use? So what you'd want is +offhand, +weapon, so it can change both?

Or just skip the "+offhand" bit? I think mafia is smart enough to know that you can only put the transfunctioner in the offhand and since you've specified a 1-handed weapon to go with it that should work as well. Perhaps put it the other way around though so it is obvious into which hand to put the weapon.
