Winterbay's Helpful Automatic Monsterbasher (WHAM)

[Theraze]

Filthworms, always. Even if you die.

Besides them... I think 'goal and survive' basically covers it. Maybe throw in 'item drop chance with current modifiers is under 50%' or something, but...

 

[Bale]

Filthworms, always. Even if you die.

LoL! Yeah, even if I cannot survive a hit from a filthworm I'd want to smash & graaagh.

Though if the goal's drop chance is greater than or equial to ceil(100 * (100.0/(100 + item_drop_modifier()))) then it is guaranteed, so you might as well skip the pickpocketing.

 

[Chef_Rannos]

I just got Ravenous Pounce, and it seemed trivial to implement the "hunger" factor

skill    12010    Ravenous Pounce    hunger*{6,7,8}    0    regular !!An attack that deals more damage the hungrier you are and always hits

Added to batfactors:

fvars["hunger"] = fullness_limit() - my_fullness();

And a bit to ensure hitchance = 100%

Where did you add the fvars line?

 

[Bale]

Where did you add the fvars line?

Near-ish the top of the script are a whole bunch of similar lines. Search for fvars and you'll find them.

 

[Winterbay]

Right. Version 3.5 uploaded which should use smash&graagh in a safe and useful manner (unless you are fighting filthworms in which case it will only use it in a useful manner).

 

[Winterbay]

Forgot to add that I adapted the unkown_ml check to not abort at unknown_ml = 0 if your Monster Manuel gives you the stats of the, for Mafia, unknown monster.

 

[Bale]

Forgot to add that I adapted the unkown_ml check to not abort at unknown_ml = 0 if your Monster Manuel gives you the stats of the, for Mafia, unknown monster.

I'm not understanding something. If Manuel gives stats for the monster, then Mafia automatically takes the stats from Manuel. So the monster's stats are simply not unknown. What did you have to change?

 

[Winterbay]

I can't really remember but it failed to not abort for some reason even though Mafia picked up on the stats. It was obviously some wonderful aspect of how I had coded the way to set unknown_ml that made it not 100% compatible.

Edit: Looking at it now I had it to abort if monster_hp($monster) was 0, which it still is if the monster is not in Mafia's database, even though monster_hp() for the current fight is set to the correct value due to Manuel so now I check if monster_hp() is 0 instead.

Do I need to tweak a data file? It looks like it saw kodiak moment would do tons of damage, but maybe it's not typed to elemental right?

 

[Winterbay]

Huh, what type of damage did kodiak moment do? The wiki seems to claim that it's just an auto-hit which doesn't make sense if you can beat a physically resistant monster for 73 damage with it...

 

[hngkong]

In Zombie, each of the bear arms skills are slightly different. Kodiak Moment does spooky and stench damage for example.

 

[Winterbay]

Thanks, and there's your problem then. There is no support for that difference in batbrain and so it will do odd things like this. You could edit your batfactors datafile to say "spooky, stench" I guess, but then it would only work for zombies. It'll need to be added as special cases in batbrain I think.

 

[Winterbay]

So, I played around some more with bear- and zombie-skills and ended up with following versions of batbrain, batfactors and wham. Anyone willing to try them out?

This does not take the auto-crit of Kodiak Moment into account, but should adapt the damage type when in a zombie run.

 

[Chef_Rannos]

Downloading...I'll try them out tomorrow.

 

[Winterbay]

Ehhmm... Apparently there was one thing missing in the data file so it didn't work. This should work.

[Crowther]

Anyone willing to try them out?

Yes please, I've downloaded and installed, but I'm already done for the day.

Any particular feedback that might be helpful?

I'm guessing it probably won't convert new minions from weak monsters, since the synergy between infections bite and plague claws isn't there. Are horde costs considered at all?

I guess I shouldn't ask so many questions and just try it tomorrow. I think adding WHAM onto the end of my CCS (bite, indigo, blue, plague, plague), might work out well for me if those things aren't handled.

The problem appear to be that it tried to enqueue two shards which won't work since it's marked as a once item. This appears to be because I forgot to add the once-checking code to the place that tries to use another item if it enqueues one first. Fixed locally.

Add the following to the item_option() function to fix it:

if(contains_text(factors["item", to_int(excise(opt.id,"use ",""))].special, "once") && happened(opt.id))
   continue;    //Don't retry things that can only be done once

I especially like feedback on the bear-skills since I don't have those myself. It will create zombies with bite if it enqueues bite, which mine did at least some times yesterday.
I guess it could use bite against monsters where the best attack option will kill it somewhat quickly, like with smash&graaagh.

Horde cost is considered in the same way that MP is since mafia returns your Horde amount when asked about my_mp().

Right, so that way of doing things obviously didn't work...

Edit: Try changing that part you commented out to:

      if (to_skill(it) == $skill[Kodiak Moment] && my_path() == "Zombie Slayer") {
         factors[te,it].dmg += " spooky, stench";
         if (factors[te,it].dmg.contains_text(monster_element(m)))
            factors[te,it].dmg.replace_string(monster_element(m)+",","");
      }

and see if that works?

Edit, edit: Or, I guess, it's easier if I just upload all three latest versions here I guess. Also, contains the fix for double-ice-sharding.

 

[Stardock]

Any chance we could get a WHAM zlib variable to get a monster to a specific hp instead of killing it?
