I think it is not possible at all to pickpocket/steal/rave steal fudgecules...so maybe that should be disabled...it seems like a waste of time/resources. As I am not a good scripter, could someone point out to me, where I need to fix SS in order to NOT try to steal in Candyland?

I am using Bale's UR for recovery, which sets my meatperhp/meatpermp values more accurately than BB's default values. If you're not using UR, using it may help slightly with this problem. However, the HP gain from Bandages is being outweighed by the HP loss from the monster, so the actual value of HP is just a side issue.

I didn't use that before, but I just installed it. Unfortunately, it doesn't seem to have any noticeable effect on the bandaging behavior.
So, reviewing these combats again, I suspect either the formula is off for the Untamed Turtle or you were just the victim of RNG swing in a script that uses averages. The monster was dealing over 40 damage, and Bandages heals 16. Since BB thought the monster was blocked 75% of the time, that means that in an average round Bandaging, you take 10 damage and gain 16, for a net profit of 6 HP. Why 6 HP would be worth over 100 is mysterious, but still just a side effect. In both of your posted examples, your buddy Grort blocked significantly fewer of the monster's attacks than BB thought it would, and ended up getting you killed. This could just be RNG swing, or it could be an inaccurate formula. Either way, something should be changed. Perhaps I'll try some kind of potato for my next 100% run to see if I can iron this out.

This is happening many more times than I have posted here so I seriously doubt it's a RNG issue.

In the meantime, if you'd like to make BB ignore that skill, you could remove the line from batfactors.txt.

Thanks, I've disabled it for now. If there's anything I can do to help debug this, I'll happily switch it back on again.

On line 334 remove "fudge mountain" from the $locations[]-field. You can pickpocket lollipop sticks so you could leave the forest in there, or delete it as well if you want to. If you want to be really really sure you can remove them from line 317 as well.
 
I've removed Fudge Mountain from the first post as well, but didn't bump the version again since it's a very minor change.

I'm in the gallery, with full HP, quickly running out of MP. Using a Piano Cat, so nothing to gain by stasising. I've seen it happen before, but today it is all that it is doing...I hadn't updated anything other than mafia to version 10128, I just updated to the 'slightly' newer SmartStasis, with no change (didn't expect to see any changes based on what you said you updated)

I've been seeing the Lasagna Bandages issue pop up myself from time to time. Working on debugging it. I think I should make a few tweaks to profit calculations with regard to MP/HP regen, for starters.

In the process I solved a bug with the Crown of Thrones which has existed for quite a while without my knowing. If you were having this issue due to an enthroned familiar that dropped items, that should go away with the next update.

Also, I'd like to add Release the Boots to the custom actions of SS, but I haven't played with my Boots at all yet so I'd appreciate your feedback regarding the best method. How do you personally use this skill in-run, and does it differ from your use of it in aftercore?

The ideal implementation should definitely be goal-sensitive, so if you set a goal of 1 chlorophyll paste, it should only use the skill against plants. Similarly, it should avoid using the skill if the monster drops goals. However, with no paste goals, fighting a monster that drops no goals, should it always use the skill to maximize spleen drops? Or should we have a configurable list of monsters to stomp, as in ftf_olfact and ftf_yellow?

My current implementatin in spamattack looks like the following:
Code: 
if(my_familiar() == $familiar[Stomping Boots] && get_property("bootsCharged") == "true" && m.phylum != $phylum[none] && has_goal(m) == 0) {
	enqueue(get_action($skill[release the boots]));
	return macro();
}

It's rather basic, stomp as son as you can, but do not stomp monsters that have goals. Probably very much expandable.

Edit: On the "how do you use it" that is how I use it. But I'm a very suboptimal player most of the time and just want easy access to spleen items, but do not want it to stop me from getting my goal-items.
 
Ok, for now I've gone with this:

PHP: 
  // release the boots!
   if (my_familiar() == $familiar[stomping boots] && get_property("bootsCharged") == "true" && to_paste(m.phylum) != $item[none] &&
       (is_goal(to_paste(m.phylum)) || has_goal(m) == 0))
      custom[count(custom)] = to_event("skill 7115",to_spread(monster_stat("hp")*6,"physical"),"stun 1",1);

Thanks Winterbay for a great starting point. So far the only enhancement I made is checking for paste goals before checking against item goals.
 
I think I'm having a similar problem. SmartStasis is running and immediately spamming Saucy Salve unnecessarily, even when I'm already at 100% health. I'm not exactly sure where this decision's coming in, but would this be an intended effect that's being misinterpreted on my end, or something else?

My guess is that it's taking a look at profit, and somehow misinterpreting my HP as below max. While that would normally mean that healing is profitable, it's not correctly stopping once I'm at full health and healing therefore becomes worthless.

I'm using ZLib 33, Batbrain 1.15, and SmartStasis 3.10. Here's an example combat with verbosity at 9.

When I added more logging, the _spec max hp was below the actual max hp, which is what it uses for my_stats, so it always thought my health was below max, and healing was always useful.
 
I don't think that's the problem. I added a debug print to my_stat() to print something whenever spec differs from reality:

PHP: 
float my_stat(string which) {
   switch (which) {
      case "hp": if (numeric_modifier("_spec","Buffed HP Maximum") != my_maxhp()) print("WTF?! Spec of "+
            rnum(numeric_modifier("_spec","Buffed HP Maximum"))+" doesn't equal real max HP of "+my_maxhp());
         return minmax(my_hp()+adj.hp,0,numeric_modifier("_spec","Buffed HP Maximum"));

I also added some print statements to the dangerous poisons detection section like so:

PHP: 
print("pre MaxHP: "+rnum(numeric_modifier("_spec","Buffed HP Maximum")),"red");

   foreach i in $ints[8, 264, 282, 283, 284] {
      cli_execute("whatif up "+to_effect(i)+"; quiet");
      print("poison "+i+" Spec MaxHP: "+rnum(numeric_modifier("_spec","Buffed HP Maximum")),"red");

      if (m_hit_chance() > 0.06 || kill_rounds(attack_action()) > maxround - round) dangerpoisons[i] = true;
      cli_execute("whatif quiet");                     // reset spec in case it was used elsewhere
   }

print("post MaxHP: "+rnum(numeric_modifier("_spec","Buffed HP Maximum")),"red");

After doing that, I had these results:

Based on the absence of "WTF?" messages everywhere except during poison selection, it looks like it's working as it should. At least, the Buffed HP bit is -- I'm a little surprised the speculative HP maximum would be the same for all poison effects though. Removing the "quiet" bit shows that it gets all the percentage/numerical reductions correct, however although my Buffed Muscle ranged from 54 to 492, my Buffed HP Maximum was always 535. Can I really have over 535 HP with only 54 muscle, with only Reptilian Fortitude modifying my max HP? Something seems odd there.

Anyway, that's either something I don't understand or a mafia bug, but either way it shouldn't affect the Lasagna Bandages issue. If you have evidence to the contrary, please post it.
 
I have access to both Entangling Noodles and Operation Patriot Shield, which I can throw. It looks like SS doesn't discriminate between the two, so that in half my fights I first entangle my opponent and then throw my shield at them in the next round, which results in a redundant stun. It would obviously be much more effective to first throw the shield and then noodle with auto-crit in the next round (this happens correctly in the other half of my fights). Can the shield be given priority somehow?

Max buffed HP can't go below unbuffed muscle + 3 (and then all sorts of multiplier goodness is applied on top of that, like being a muscle class or having spirit of ravioli).

One thing... SS still tries to use rave combos before finishing up the nemesis quest, if you aren't QUITE strong enough to kill off your demon nemesis in-run or something like that arrests its progress. I was thinking that there wasn't a good way to check if it was completed, but then I realized... if (available_amount($item[seegers unstoppable banjo]) < 1) then you haven't finished the quest. Since it's a quest item, you can only ever have 1 available, and only if the quest is actually finished. I've modified my copy of SS to check for this anytime it calls a rave combo... namely that to_combo's seq function returns "" if you don't have the banjo yet (and you're asking for a rave combo), and the which-switch inside to_combo will break if it's trying to calculate the benefit from a rave combo without the banjo available.

Edit: The one problem with my current fix is that it stops SS from working in the nemesis zone... so I need to add in a check for which zone it's trying to use them after the banjo check. :)

Edit2: That makes this the proper check:
Code: 
if (available_amount($item[seegers unstoppable banjo]) < 1 && my_location().zone != "Volcano")

Edit3: In addition to those, it needs the continue-skip in the section to learn unknown rave combos... After adding this to the two sections above as well as the unknown rave learning, it's stopped using rave combos incorrectly when they fail, which makes me much more survivable. :)

So, I've recently updated and started using smartstasis again. My question is: Has the script changed drastically in the past few months? Now in pure stasis situations, it takes forever and a day to run through one combat (I'd say it takes an hour to run through one combat). Is there some setting somewhere that I am missing that might speed it up a bit?
 
You could set your verbosity to say 9 and post the result of a fight here. That may indicate what's being odd for you.
Also, what version of Mafia are you running?
 
I use Wizard's updater, so I always have the latest version of mafia :) Here is a copy of my combat.

From what I see, HP is basically considered irrelevant, but the stocking mimic provides ~85 meat per round, so it thinks that's definitely a good choice to run as long as it can. However, you don't have enough moxie (or muscle, if you have hero) to avoid getting hit, hard, so the script needs to recalculate if it's safe every time you get hit.

At least, that's my read...
