Problems with Breakables Un equipping.

MenaceTheGreat · Oct 13, 2012

Ok, I'm hoping I just messed up a setting somewhere but nothing seems to be working for me and I'm about to loose it

I use Sugar shields when farming the castle, and have Choice Adv>Item>Breakable Equipment Set to acquire & re-equip.
I have tried using Breakables-relay.ash and got the same result.
Here's the CLI output:

You acquire an item: sugar shard (3)
Verifying ingredients for sugar shield (1)...
Searching for "sugar sheet"...
Search complete.
Purchasing sugar sheet (1 @ 350)...
You acquire an item: sugar sheet
Purchases complete.
You acquire an item: sugar shield
Successfully created sugar shield (1)
Your sugar shield shattered.
Putting on sugar shield...
Equipment changed.

Taking off sugar shield...
Equipment changed.

Visit to Island: McMillicancuddy's Farm in progress...

Everything is great until it takes the sugar shield back off and leaves my familiar without any equipment.
I use harvest.ash for farming right now and it is very annoying to have to interrupt the script every time I see the familiars weight drop and manually equip another sugar shield the mafia just made for it

Any ideas what I'm doing wrong?

Do you have all the familiar equipment settings properly specified?

zlib har_bountyhunting_famequip = sugar shield
zlib har_duckhunting_famequip = sugar shield
zlib har_farming_famequip = sugar shield
zlib har_puttyfarming_famequip = sugar shield

MenaceTheGreat · Oct 15, 2012

I didn't have har_puttyfarming_famequip = sugar shield
Added that and still get the same problem.
The issue is that it makes it and equips it just fine, then for some reason it takes it right back off.

Putting on sugar shield...
Equipment changed.

Taking off sugar shield...

How about you type this and see what it returns:

> zlib famequip

I got this from the CLI:

Copy/paste/modify/enter any of the following lines in the CLI to edit settings:

zlib har_bountyhunting_famequip = sugar shield
zlib har_duckhunting_famequip = sugar shield
zlib har_farming_famequip = sugar shield
zlib har_puttyfarming_famequip = sugar shield

The problem MIGHT have to do with setting the sugar shield manually... That means that if the sugar shield breaks, Harvest should equip the sugar shield you don't have, but that mafia is working on creating, which means... equip nothing/unequip the sugar shield. If I understand mafia/Harvest interaction properly.

Try setting something besides the sugar shield for your famequip on farming/puttyfarming. You're already overriding Harvest's work by using mafia's internal breakable settings.

If that's the case, this would be "Not a bug" just misunderstanding the interaction between a script and mafia's settings.

I will try that during my run tomorrow morning, already burnt my adventures for today, but I'm not optimistic as to the result, because it seems to un-equip even if I have multiple sugar shields in inventory :/ But none the less, I'll give this a try, never know what interactions might change what from what I have seen in mafia

Thanks, I'll update tomorrow.

MenaceTheGreat · Oct 17, 2012

set kol internal breakables setting to abort on breakage and got this:

You acquire an item: sugar shard (2)
Your sugar shield shattered.

Visit to Beanstalk: Giant's Castle in progress...

and it did not abort.

Setting all zlib vars for famequip to none, and internal setting to re-equip from inventory and acquire and re-equip both did the same as before (equip then un-equip) with and without extra sugar shields in inventory.

I am at such a loss, I am about to just forget about using them entirely

Any other suggestions before I give up?
Sorry if this is a bit long but I'll post my vars list in it's entirety for anyone that wants to look at it to see if they can see whats causing this.

For curiosity's sake, how about next time it starts to adventure in the Giant Castle, aborting manually, equipping the sugar shield, and adventuring 1 or 2 adventures after it breaks, so if it will break in 5 turns, adventuring another 6 or 7. See if, without Harvest getting into it, mafia will properly re-equip. The issue MIGHT be related to items breaking while running scripts. I remember a few old bugs tied into stuff like that with familiar equipment and checkpoints a while ago. If that's the case, we might be able to get around it by using checkpoint manually... but first, finding out if non-scripted breaking of the sugar shield will stay equipped.

Oh good point! This problem might be caused by a mood, preAdventure or postAdventure script! (I'm not sure of the exact timing of breakable handling so I cannot narrow it down.)

ok, so it is something in the script interaction :/
I don't use any preAdventure or postAdventure scripts, My only mood command other than buff upkeep is "uneffect QWOPped Up".
Glad to see you popped in Bale, any ideas as to how I might fix this? or what I should look for? I'm no programmer, But I'm not scared of looking threw or changing code for trial and error with advice.

Let me know if any other info would be helpful. currently I am play time deficient due to work, so the harvest script has been a god send this month.

Bale · Oct 18, 2012

Since it properly re-equips when normally adventuring in mafia we know it must have something to do with Harvest. I don't use Harvest so I probably cannot help.

I am a little bit suspicious of your mood though... In your KoLmafia folder is a folder called /settings. In that folder is a file with the name of your character_moods. For instance, if your character is MenaceTheGreat, it would be /settings/MenaceTheGreat_moods.txt

Could you copy/paste that file here?

Theraze · Oct 19, 2012

Well, let's see if the old fix still works. Throw

Code:

					cli_execute("checkpoint");

after the equip in

Code:

	// We need to equip the sugar shield after our normal fam_equip so that mafia knows what to switch to if the former breaks
	if(USE_SHIELDS && available_amount($item[sugar shield]) > 0 && (activity == "farm" || activity == "puttyfarm"))
		equip($item[sugar shield]);	
	}

so that it looks like this:

Code:

	// We need to equip the sugar shield after our normal fam_equip so that mafia knows what to switch to if the former breaks
	if(USE_SHIELDS && available_amount($item[sugar shield]) > 0 && (activity == "farm" || activity == "puttyfarm"))
		equip($item[sugar shield]);	
		cli_execute("checkpoint");
	}

The issue before was that mafia would make a silent checkpoint when the script started and consider that the 'proper' familiar item. If you're using something besides sugar shields, the good spot to put that might actually be just BEFORE the equipping, but... eh, whatever. We're trying to fix SS not re-equipping, not the entire world. Yet.

Added the code. I'll see after rollover if that helps.
It just baffles me that it equips then takes it back off and doesn't even put my meat detector back on

Code:

cli_execute("checkpoint");

after the equip

Whoa. Shouldn't that be cli_execute("checkpoint clear"); ?

Theraze · Oct 19, 2012

Apparently.

Think that setting a checkpoint might do it as well, but wiping it after equipping should work as well.

MenaceTheGreat · Oct 19, 2012

ok

so neither of those worked.
I also tried turning off sugar shields in harvest and letting mafia load them, still a no go.
I even changed all zlib vars to Meat detector, and set harvest to use sugar shields, still a no go.
On the up side, weather I load them by zlib vars only, harvest only, or with both, it does properly equip the sugar shields at the start. Only fails when the 1st one breaks.
but I'm wondering if the CLI output order has anything to do with it?

You acquire an item: sugar shard (3)
Verifying ingredients for sugar shield (1)...
Searching for "sugar sheet"...
Search complete.
Purchasing sugar sheet (1 @ 400)...
You acquire an item: sugar sheet
Purchases complete.
You acquire an item: sugar shield
Successfully created sugar shield (1)
Your sugar shield shattered.
Putting on sugar shield...
Equipment changed.

Taking off sugar shield...
Equipment changed.

Visit to Beanstalk: Giant's Castle in progress...

Does the fact that mafia is reporting the sugar shield shattering after it is already creating one to replace the one that broke? It seems the script is identifying a shattered shild when the sugar shards post rather than when the shield shows it is shattered.
This may be just the way it reports, but I had to ask. the order just seems funky :/
I'm still at a loss.

I'm having the same problem did you guys ever found a way to fix this?
