Weatherboy's Completely Automatic Spaaace Script

This has been updated more recently and so probably works better at the moment, but apart from that I don't think there's any real difference. They were both written to do the same thing and even though I guess they make some small differences in which choices they do for you, I think you could use whichever you want.
 
I ran v. spaaace_v33.ash just now, and it equipped the Time Bandit Badge of Courage, which limits all attributes to a base of 50, and the red shirt which is -50% on all three attributes, as well as +20 ML. Of course, I got beaten up the next encounter. Why would it equip those? So I put the silly things in my closet. The Escort Mission failed. Then when I tried to pick it up again, it removed the red shirt and Time Bandit Badge of Courage from my closet, bringing my stats to 26-24-27, and of course, before I could stop it, I got beaten up again.

I went back to v.32. Did the same thing (see second quote). Put the items in my display case; v.32 again equipped things which reduced my stats, and again the escort mission failed. This has never happened before using this script, and I don't think I've done anything with my settings that would cause this change.

I don't get it; why is equipping things that reduce my stats?

This is from the gCLI the first time before I put the red shirt and Time Bandit Badge of Courage away:

Look at the Maximizer window in mafia. What does it have filled in there? That will show you what the script was trying to maximize.
 
I'll try running it again; I know that you don't want a lot of muscle because of the way the monsters scale, but it seems to be going too far.

Okay, this is what v.33 said: DA +DR -muscle -moxie +1 handed +spell damage +equip spooky little girl

My character is AT.

I finally did it manually.

Those are scaling monsters. Apparently the script is relying on you to have a CCS to actually do something to the monster, and you have mafia set to just attack, which means there was no chance of success regardless of what the script maximized. Unless it got you above 300 moxie, apparently.
 
That's exactly what's happening. Since the monsters scale, I'm making them as small as possible (-muscle -moxie), because we also don't want to even get hit, (+DA +DR), but your ccs has to have a way to kill them, usually a spell (+spell damage). I've been using WHAM for some time now. It's far more efficient in coming up with a combat strategy than my original approach, which was so long ago, that for ATs it was Moxious Maneuver.

tl/dr You need to perm saucestorm.

Well, I would have set it to use saucegeyser, if I had realized it was going to minimize my muscle so much.

Uh, why not just buff mox a bunch, init enough, and just attack with weapon? (maybe toss on hand chalk if you're afraid of fumbling)

Ranged attacks now use moxie to calculate damage, too.
 
Because mafia doesn't know the defns of "a bunch" and "enough".

You write the maximizer string(s) you think I should be using instead and I'll start testing it as all 6 classes with my no-Mr. Store-dude.

The above works *every time* if you have *any* spell permed. Relying on "attact" to kill a scaling monster, is a recipe for disaster.
 
maximize mox, -mus, init 100 min 100 max -melee

"Enough" init is just "enough to get the jump on any monster in the zone", and "a bunch" might as well just be everything else. I somehow doubt this will work as, say, a muscle class without buffing (serum of sarcasm is very cheap) if you don't have all that much gear.
 
You are aware that with the way the maximizer works now, it won't actually care about init unless it gets more there than moxie, right? That was an 'enhancement' 2 or 3 years ago that made the maximizer not force requirements to actually happen.

To properly do a min/max bit, you need to do 2 maximizer strings - one JUST for the value, the second for what you want with limits and (now) +current on the second string to force it to keep the current gear in the list. That will make it not break the requirement, while still updating for what's best. Which reminds me... I'll have to go look through the scripts I work on that involve stat requirements now. Ugh. Oh well, least it's faster normally.
