Heartbreak Hotel's +ML

I'm sure Jason, Veracity, whomever are still working on figuring out a way to get this implemented within Mafia for full support.

In the meantime, I was trying to figure out a way to get mafia to recognize that I'm running +ML from the hotel. I tried using mcd #, and it wanted to work as requested, but then defaulted back to +0 ML because Mafia knows I'm in BM and doesn't realize I have a radio device of sorts. The nature of the Hotel's +ML device wouldn't work that simply in the long run anyhow. Anyhow, is there a quick fix for me to easily instruct mafia to recognize +#ML that it doesn't see me having? I keep feeling like I'm missing some obvious thing that will allow me to do this.

Thanks,

set _userMods = Monster Level: X

Fill in X with the appropriate number, obviously. This will be cleared every day at rollover.

In order to actually support the Heartbreaker's ML, I need to know what the display of the current setting looks like in compact mode (corresponding to "MC", "Radio", "AOT5K" for the existing MCDs).

The big question is: should the mcd command support setting this? My inclination is to say no, on the grounds that it costs a turn, and your desired +ML isn't necessarily available - there may need to be a decision made as to which way to adjust the value. There are various scripts out there that adjust MCD on a turn-by-turn basis, it would be disastrous if they started burning a turn each time in BM...

Attached pic what you're looking for? The HH 10 is Hotel set to 10 right now.

I don't think the mcd command should support the hotel due to the adventuring nature. I've only spent one turn there so far and had choices of 2, 6, 10. So I picked 10 and have stuck with it so far.

Just a note... the above didn't reset with rollover. I logged in with mafia thinking I had +20 ML due to setting the above to 10 yesterday and mafia now recognizing the hotel itself.
