This doesn't look like it's working.

I was having the same issue. I'm not in-run, and probably won't be ascending until after Crimbo at this point, with all the holidays coming up at this point, but I did look at the code, and I think maybe this patch will fix the issue. Didn't post it since I couldn't test it, but since someone else is noticing the same problem I was, I figured I'd put it out there. I'll repeat that this is totally untested; it might fix the issue, it might make something in the Cyrpt explode.

Edited to add: I think it would be fine to just cut out this whole if ... return, which would prevent this sort of issue from happening in the future, but I didn't want to propose a patch that cuts out that whole bit of code without the ability to test it first. Real Devs can decide on the wisdom of that approach.

Only things left to implement as far as I can see is resetting the tracking properties after ascending and the maximizer suggesting folding the cape when appropriate.

the maximizer suggesting folding the cape when appropriate.

This has made me realise that the way I implemented the item's modifiers wasn't right and I should have done it with a new category of Modifier (like the ed piece). Except this one is weird because it needs to track two prefs. Or I suppose I could just concatenate them,

Both addressed in r20555. I'll note here as I did in the commit message - the retrocape command now equips the cape as well as reconfiguring it.

This looks done as of r20555.

Minor nitpick with the logging:

Took choice 1437/5: Change instructions to "Kill Me"
choice.php?whichchoice=1437&option=5&pwd
Preference retroCapeWashingInstructions changed from thrill to kill
Took choice 1437/1: Change Superhero
choice.php?whichchoice=1437&option=1&pwd
Preference lastEncounter changed from modern zmobie to Setup your knock-off retro superhero cape
Encounter: Setup your knock-off retro superhero cape
Took choice 1438/1: Set to Vampire Slicer
choice.php?whichchoice=1438&option=1&pwd
Preference retroCapeSuperhero changed from heck to vampire
Took choice 1438/4: Change instructions to "Kiss Me"
choice.php?whichchoice=1438&option=4&pwd
Took choice 1437/6: I'm Done
choice.php?whichchoice=1437&option=6&pwd

choice 1438/4 is "I'm Good" not "Change instructions to "Kiss Me"" (looks like a copy & paste error as 1437/4 is that).
Mentioning it as it misled me when trying to figure out an issue with scripting use of it just now.

Thanks.

Optimal setups should include the "always critical with guns" from the robot policeman, kill me skill. This is especially useful if one is using something like a spear gun, as it auto-triggers the gun's critical effect (in this case, bonus damage on top of combat damage).
