Universal Recovery Script

Thanks. I'm seeing something weird so you've posted enough logs for now. Give me a bit to figure out how to diagnose it and then I'll post another build for you to test.

PS. Could you please edit in [code] [/code] tags around your posts so that they don't take up so much space on the page? Thanks.

I originally had [code] [/code] but then one needed to scroll side to side to get to the up and down scroller, it was annoying for me to read that way, but I'll throw them back in.

Edit: code blocks look good now... no idea why they were huge before when I had them tagged as such.

After a lot of consideration I think I may have found the problem, or at least this should point me in the right direction. (fingers crossed)

Spiny, please take this special release I made just for you and use it without any modifications. Please post the output if it doesn't perform properly. It's clear you know how to test it.

LOL the output is so long it scrolled off the screen!

With 0 on-hand meat, the following is how each variation of restore mana, restore hp, and restore both begin. Please note these are my most recent tests. I initially had 580 of 1615 MP which got slightly restored in a test midway, but as I couldn't see the beginning of the initial tests, I did these for illustration:

I don't have a continued log of restore both.

After taking 400 meat from closet, expected this would get me healed with scroll of drastic healing (Heal 663HP with a scroll of drastic healing for 300.0 meat.), but instead I spent 396 meat for 33 MP at Galaktiks!:

Observations:

Restore hp is behaving like restore both should in terms of checking hp and mp restoratives.
Both restore hp and restore both are initially targetting the incorrect MP target. It is correctly targetted in restore mana.
It used to be alright to have 400 meat on-hand and know that a scroll of drastic healing would be used with restore hp, now apparently it's off to Galaktiks with me. Think I said that above, but it's here again for good measure ;)

After all that, I took 5000 meat from my closet to see if restoration with decent amount of meat on-hand still works ;)

AH! I GOT IT!

You have indeed fixed the scripts desire to go to Galaktiks with no meat on-hand though...

Using 17 carbonated water lily
Running out of meat! Time to take some out of the closet...

In the result of the above, it is the first time I have ever seen the "time to take meat out of closet message", so this too is making progress. It reports the correct value of the restorative it wants to use, so this is cool too. The line that perplexes me is "Using 17 carbonated water lily" If it's not actually using them, due to not having them, it probably shouldn't say "using" but having it tell me how many it would use is awesome :) I can live with this statement as is if there's no easy way to distinguish actually using something vs wanting to use something as far as a printed message goes.

I ran another test, this time with restore both. For whatever reason, the restore both continues to have an incorrect MP target printed.:

Code:

Running out of meat! Time to take some out of the closet..

The result of the above test is if it can't restore the MP, it doesn't consider to restore HP. I suppose there is some sense to that, especially for players who want to use healing skills. The player would then choose restore mana or restore HP or do some variation of manual restoration.

With 0 meat on-hand restore hp... worked! :D This is with my AT. I still want to test this with my TT, I'd like to see her use the scroll as well, rather than use a bunch of Tongue of the Walrus, but til I test this on her, I don't know what the result would be.

Thank you for helping stress test the script. I guess if it can survive you, it can survive anyone. Incidentally, the "time to take some out of the closet" message has been in the script since v2.0, but nobody has ever seen it because of the bugs you helped me to unearth. Finally that line has gotten to shine!

Oh, and I'll change the speculative "Using items" message to "Trying to use items" because it hasn't yet verified how many will be used. ;) Though nobody will ever see that unless they turn on verbose mode.

As a point of curiosity, the reason for the weird prices on scroll of drastic healing is because I'm accounting for the fact that they get reused 1 time out of 3.

Nod, I'd seen the time to take meat out of the closet message as part of an abort message in the script, but had never seen it fire off till now. That was one of the things I was trying to convey all along but did it in my own very verbose manner! lol

Yay! Once I'm confident everything is running smoothly, I'll probably tone down to verbose rather than very verbose. Even I'm not obsessive/paranoid enough to want to see that level of spam ALL the time ;)

Regarding the price of scroll of drastic healing, I'd seen your accounting of re-usability in the code so that wasn't an issue at all for me.

So, next on the table is ... finding out how this works with my TT... lol I still have 275 turns to go with my Sauceror before I can get there to test.

And figuring out why the mana target is not being printed properly during "restore both"? :)

-Spiny

PS - Trust me, if I find any further behavior that is ... odd or unwanted... you will be the first to know! ;)
 
Uh oh!

First time running it on my Sauceror...

This was restore hp, it behaved like restore both is supposed to (ie it restored mana, then hp). In this situation, the mana restoration was not desired, hence why I did restore hp. It appears that the first time the script is run (in a session?), it processes this way. I think this is the behavior I saw on my AT as well, as far as restore hp sometimes behaving like restore both. I think it's the first time per session deal, but other than this sampling, I can't confirm that.

Current HP: 923, MP: 857
My meat: 26283. Should be successfully healed...

Edit 1: It's not a first time per session only behavior, since it happened again. If I input restore hp and my_mp is less than what I've set the restore MP at X% drop down to in mafia, then this behaves as restore both. I have not tested restore mana while my hp is below the restore at X% target that I've set in mafia to see if it would behave the same way.

I was of the assumption typing in restore hp or restore mana would be limited to restoring whichever was requested, not both. And the restore both command would obviously restore both. If I was auto-adventuring I'd expect the hp/mp settings to fire off as set and they do. The question is, was my assumption of how the commands work correct or not? If my assumption was correct, than something is not behaving properly. If my assumption was incorrect, then it's user error on my part.

Edit 2: Regarding the target MP being reported when restore both behavior occurs: When I fired off the initial restore hp, quoted at the top of this post, my restore mp at X% was set to 75%. In that example, the printed Target MP = 75% of my max mana.

To further test this, I set my restore mana to 50%, in the below example, it appears to be that the target MP is being printed at 50% of max MP + 20 MP. I'm not sure why there's this additional 20 MP being added in. I thought at first it was being reserved for cocoon, but the above example also cast cocoon and didn't have the extra 20 MP in the Target MP.

Concerning your problem with unanticipated MP restoration: When you restore HP and you have a healing spell, it checks your MP to see if the cost of a healing spell will reduce your MP below your MP healing trigger. If so, then it will restore MP first so that you can take full advantage of items that restore both HP&MP at the same time. Then, after restoring MP, it will return to restoring HP. It's anticipating your future needs since in normal adventuring mafia will always do a restore_mp(0) after restore_hp(0).

That's a feature, not a bug.

As for restore both, Mafia actually calls my script twice when you do a restore both, once to restore hp and the second time to restore mp. It is exactly the same typing restore hp followed by restore mp.

Everything seems to be working well in your latest tests.

I.e. when it is going to use a "heal-all"-method (scroll of drastic healing like here, but probably also Cocoon etc.), there is nothing gained from going to the nuns first. In this case I would want it to either:
- use only the scroll, no nunnery before that.
- or eventually go twice to the nunnery to heal full (and don't do anything else after that).

I have tested many things to the extreme with this script, however there are things I have not tested including restoration from the Nuns or the Hot Tub. I don't have access to the Hot Tub and I prefer to only use the Nuns under certain situations and as such, have them disabled as an automatic choice of recovery.

As it stands right now, the code says: If I need to recover 1000 or more HP, and I've done the nuns as a Hippy, and I've visited the nuns less than 3 times, visit the nuns and then restore remaining HPs via items or skills.

In your case, you needed 1485 HP restored, 2 visits to the Nuns would not occur, a second visit would clearly be a waste of a nuns visit. Now, of course, using a full heal after the visit to the nuns may be viewed as a waste, which is your case. On the surface, I'd agree, but a full-heal item is most likely cheaper than any other restorative to recover 485 HP.

This begs the next question, when SHOULD the script simply use a full heal item as opposed to visit the nuns when done as a Hippy?

Personally, I think the Nuns as Hippy is a strange case because it's far more practical to use a full heal method than EVER using the nuns when done as a Hippy, providing one has a full heal method on-hand. If one has to buy a full heal item, then I'd probably prefer the Nuns as they are free, but then I'd only prefer the Nuns over buying a healing method IF the healing method I would need after visiting the nuns would cost less than the cost of a full heal item/skill.

Now whether or not that is something Bale wants to code is another question :) Let's see what he has to say about this because I could simply be off my rocker too!

Ah. Now there's a special case I never considered. Curiously if you'd completed the quest as a frat, it would focus on the use of 1000MP, so this bug would never come up. Anytime I'm in aftercore for long enough to have 1000 HP, I planned for the MP restoration. That's how this eluded my notice.

I see Spiny shares my sentiments for planning the nun quest to be useful in aftercore, but not everyone is Spiny nor I. This is clearly a lack in my script that needs to be fixed. I'll think about how to fix it properly since the current logic for nun usage will need a serious overhaul to handle this case. I want the script to be flexible enough to be helpful to almost everyone.
 
Bale, something new I noticed. It's not an issue regarding restorative functionality, but it is being fired off due to your script. I hadn't caught it before because I mostly manually adventure thru the relay browser and as such only call the script when I need to. Last night, and today, while meat farming in the castle I've noticed some redundency happening.

Here's an example of what I'm talking about:

In short, should those zachbardon.com submission messages be occurring so frequently?

-Spiny
 
Not a problem. All systems green

Prices should only be submitted when you have exactly 9 adventures left. Which should be extremely rarely. It happened twice in a row because choosing not to turn the wheel doesn't use up an adventure so you STILL had exactly 9 adventures left.

Incidentally if you try to submit a second time, mafia simply refuses to submit it a second time. No submission made = no harm done. Though looking at it, I should limit to either hp OR mp restoration, rather than both. That would at least cut the number of attempted submissions in half.
 
I think the confusing issue I had the other day regarding the super-verbose mode reporting the incorrect target MP % is based on a cosmetic issue and is related to the below as well. I understand what the script is doing based on our conversations here. I agree the script, at this point, in these situations is making the right choices. I am happy with how well it is functioning compared to the frustrations I was having earlier pre-bug fixes. The more I understand, the more it's like a light bulb turns on.

I felt confident enough to drop down a level of verboseness from super verbose to just plain old verbose. This is on my Sauceror and my first run thru at this lesser verbose mode:

Code: 
> restore both

Restoring HP! Currently at 692 of 977 HP, 683 of 978 MP... Target HP = 977, current meat: 57894.
In mallmode, best item is: scroll of drastic healing @ 330.0 [B][COLOR=blue]How do we get from here...[/COLOR][/B]
In mallmode, best item is: magical mystery juice @ 574.1177 [B][COLOR=red]<-- this is confusing to see here as the actual cost value appears later[/COLOR][/B]
Mall price to restore 20MP is 48 meat.
Cast a healing skill.

From a prior code snippet in super-verbose mode:

Code: 
Restoring HP! Currently at 367 of 922 HP, 377 of 877 MP... Target HP = 922, current meat: 19574.
Restoring MP! Currently at 367 of 922 HP, 377 of 877 MP... Target MP = 458, current meat: 19574. [B][COLOR=red]<--misleading target indicator, can this be omitted/changed for clarification of intent?[/COLOR][/B]
To heal with Doc Galaktik would cost 8500.0 meat. Now to beat that price...

In the above example I was going nuts because of the Target MP shown not being my actual Target MP. You explained "it checks your MP to see if the cost of a healing spell will reduce your MP below your MP healing trigger." This made sense to me, but doesn't rectify that the script reports the trigger MP rather than the true target MP in the restore both/restore hp (where my_mp < Trigger MP %) scenario.

In the verbose mode it does not print this misleading target indicator, but it does report the incorrect cost to restore MP initially. A quick glance at the first log here makes me wonder how my total cost to restore mana went from 574 meat + 48 meat to restore 20 MP to 741 meat to restore MP fully. Again, I understand what the script is doing now after talking with you about it, but I think the verbose comments need to be fine tuned a bit.

What I'd personally like to see in a verbose mode is something like this:

Restoring HP! Currently at 692 of 977 HP, 683 of 978 MP... Target HP = 977, current meat: 57894.
In mallmode, best HP restorative is: scroll of drastic healing @ 330.0
Now to beat that price... Include this line?
In mallmode, best MP restorative is: magical mystery juice Omit the price reference you currently have on this line and it might make more sense to the user
Mall price to restore 20MP is 48 meat.

Whereas in super verbose mode, continue to have it do all that it is currently doing, EXCEPT for printing out the misleading MP target restoration indicator unless you can get it to be clearly understood to the viewer of the output somehow.

Is this doable? :)

Thanks,
