Better yet, the "default" (there's no explicit default case, so it's the line after the switch) is "return true;", so the *entire* case can be commented out (or deleted).

Ok i have deleted mafia, redownloaded, readded all my scripts when i attempt to use the script button in the relay browser for WHAM to execute i get this message on any fight I do
Function 'tower_items( boolean )' undefined. This script may require a more recent version of Kolmafia and/or its
supporting scripts (WHAM.ash, line 464)

Look back two pages in this thread - starting at post 1748. You have to make a small change to WHAM.ash.

If you update WHAM it should now work again. At least it verifies now 
I hope I can get back to actively playing again soon but atm life and work is way too busy. If any future things break WHAM and I do not appear to have noticed it would be most appreciated if someone could drop me an email at peter dot mohlin at gmail dot com.

Just a minute or two ago I posted a fairly major BatBrain update that severely broke WHAM. Due to Winterbay's post above, I figured I'd be helpful and post a version of WHAM that accounts for the changes in BatBrain, before I even write up my update posts. Hopefully this will pre-empt the error reports flowing in here.

Thanks!
I note you commented out the times_happened-function. This was deliberately added because BatBrain tried to over-use skills with the Haiku Katana. Are you 100% sure that's been fixed?

I believe the reason you listed in the comments for that function existing was something like "we need this to check if actions are still valid". WHAM should, theoretically, not have to check action validity at all. If an action is present in opts[], it's an action available to you which you can take. So I commented it out, which was the easy way to getting a version of WHAM that verifies for your users.
Now, that's all just in theory, of course. In practice I'm not sure at all whether the haiku katana is handled, in fact if you ran into troubles with it I suspect that it's not. I'll have a look at making sure that's handled in BatBrain.

Not sure where to ask the question. WHAM seems to have recently started to fail to find a combat strategy for me. In the specific example below it does not even seem to consider spells even though the character is a Level 143 Pastamancer who can usually one-shot just about anything with Weapon of the Pastalord as manually doing so after WHAM gives up illustrates.
r15468, the version of WHAM zarqon posted above.
I wondered about batfactors and I deleted it from my data directory. Nothing seems to notice that it is missing and tries to reload so the problem maybe as simple as batfactors being missing.

P.S. - I forced a batfactors update and the behavior did not change (#1768) and as I now recall, WHAM had similar problems with an ascending softcore Pastamancer although I just played manually and forgot to gather data.
WHAM is not working for me either.

It's probably the _spec changes of 15461, since when I had this problem yesterday I fixed it by reverting to 15460. It's a BatBrain issue which will be fixed when all of its _spec calls are changed to Generated:_spec after you update to 15467. Which means that BatBrain's since probably needs to update to that as well.

I've checked in Zarqon's version above. Please note that this removed custom handling for the Haiku Katana. If you use this please keep a lookout for any problems. It is very possible that the problem has been resloved and the special code is no longer needed, but it's still in there (commented out) in case it needs to be reinstated.

For some reason WHAM thinks that the anti-antidote deals damage and as such I have to pretty much finish every combat manually because the script just gets in an endless loop.
Example of the output (everything after the cut is repetition until it breaks):
(I am ascending as Ed btw, in case that matters)
[EDIT]
now that I have progressed in my ascension a little bit more, I got the book of pirate insults, now WHAM alternates between the book and the antidote in thinking they somehow deal damage

The monster did take damage the round WHAM used an anti-anti-antidote, from the stink bugs. Then WHAM used them again, but you likely don't have any, because the KoL round is no longer advancing. So the infinite loop is not doing anything, but wasting server resources. I ran WHAM in Ed hundreds of times and never saw this, so it's likely you have different. Here's my WHAM settings:
Code:
> zlib WHAM
Copy/paste/modify/enter any of the following lines in the CLI to edit settings:
zlib WHAM_AlwaysContinue = false
zlib WHAM_happymediumglow =
zlib WHAM_hitchance = 0.5
zlib WHAM_killit = false
zlib WHAM_maxround = 25
zlib WHAM_noitemsplease = false
zlib WHAM_round_limit = 15
zlib WHAM_roundcost_aftercore = 50
zlib WHAM_roundcost_inrun = notused
zlib WHAM_roundcost_ronin = 40
zlib WHAM_safetymargin = 0
zlib WHAM_UseSeaLasso = trueNormally I get into debugging bad WHAM's choices, but sadly I'll be pressed for time soon and I'm likely not going back to Ed. Hopefully the above will help get things started and someone else will figure it out.

the script actually tries to keep using the items until it reaches the max # of turns (25 in my settings, IIRC), I snipped it because as I mentioned in my post, everything after that it is just repeating that same message from that last turn until it crashes. I can understand that it is somehow thinking that the antidote deals damage because it tried to use it one round and the stinkybug dealt damage then and it attributed it to the antidote, but why on earth would it even try to use the antidote if I am not poisoned? the same happens with the book of pirate insults, the script tries to use it against non-pirates thinking it deals damage somehow.
At verbosity 10, the script only prints information, information which someone can use to actually fix something (that's what you're hoping for, correct?). So that's probably what you should do.
