So, yes, you should eventually be able to put your gauges/consoles etc. on top of that. And then if you wanted to share that with someone else, you can package the WsysF piece with your scripts as a dependency. Or if someone wants to start writing their own curing system, they could use WsysF to handle aff tracking for them, so they don't have to deal with getting all those edge cases of how various stackable affs work with GMCP (I think I got them worked out, but there are definitely things the devs could do to make this easier through gmcp).
Other than affs, most of the GMCP tracking pieces are pretty simple. The defs tracking I have was basically a copy/paste from what MMP uses, plus adding handling for things like converting "parrying (head)" to parrying = "head". But even if they're simple, it still seems like it would be useful to have a single lightweight script to do that once, rather than having every separate script copy/paste and do it on it's own. That's my reasoning with this anyway.
I would love to have a more popular foundation gmcp handler. Asking everyone to use my own hacked-up version of mdata is the main barrier keeping me from sharing my own scripts.
What is MMP?
@Pyori I'll try to find an Occultist to test with to confirm. Thanks for letting me know.
I see where 'manual defs' is trying to reference myclass, I am still looking through all the scripts to determine where myclass is defined. I'm on the latest release version, haven't given the gmcp thing a go yet. I meant to, but then the black wave came.
Also, new keyboard feels really nice, its a steelseries m750 tkl. I've always been skeptical of the gamer hardware brands but I was sick of the apple keyboard. Hopefully Shub has fewer idiotic sounding typos now. At this point I'm pretty sure everyone thinks he has a speech impediment.
The issue was that the table was using functions, but it was just trying to execute those functions when the script initializing. It'd probably work fine on reloading scripts, but could have issues if you just opened mudlet and the order of things wasn't quite right. In either case, it was wrong, and probably would have caused issues if Sylvan/Sentinel was using those in defup and switched class without reloading the script. It should be fixed on master now.
I have that change, plus the switch to pure GMCP aff tracking and some do queue changes I've been sitting on for 3+ years up on master and just about ready. I just need to do a couple more quick tests for validation before I tag that for a 1.3-beta-1. I should have that out in the next couple of days if all goes well. It's probably not quite as polished as I'd like, but I've been using it for a while now, and it works well enough.
WunderSys v1.3-beta-1
New beta release available at https://github.com/tynil/WunderSys/releasesCheck out the release for details, but this does include:
- the switch to pure GMCP aff tracking (using WunderSys Foundation)
- A bunch of doqueue changes that I've had locally for 3+ years. They're not pretty, but they should work. The main improvements are that it now uses the doqueue for some lock curing (fitness, restore, dragonheal), and I threw in some expression expansions for the do queue, which I use for all my attacks. I still want to re-write the doqueue at some point, but there's really no reason to keep sitting on these changes.
- Hopefully fixed some issues with manualcommand defup (thanks @Shub)
If you're happy with v1.2.2, there's not a whole lot substantial here to force an update. If you're willing to try it out though, let me know if you encounter any issues. The aff change in particular involved ripping out a lot of places where affs were being set, so it's certainly possible that I missed something or removed something that still had a purpose.Next Steps
I plan to let this beta soak for a bit, see if any issues come up, and maybe in a month or so if all goes well, I can push it as a full release. There are still some improvements that could be made to the prediction logic (things that GMCP doesn't catch, like masked recklessness), but the issues with them aren't anything major currently, so not a high priority.Still TODO (future versions, not necessarily 1.3):
- Improve prediction logic/failsafes
- Use wsysf.defs for def tracking
- Add item, rift, who here tracking to WunderSys Foundation
- Retardation curing needs a good deep dive
- Would like to parse AFFLICTION LIST/AFFLICTION SHOW output to tables (and the DEFENCE equivalent)
In particular, if anyone wants a good programming project, that last bullet could be a good challenge. The end result I want is a large table that is programmatically generated (please don't just try and make this table by hand!), that looks something like:aff_list = {<br> addiction = { <br> aff = "Addiction to curatives"<br> diagnose = "suffering from addiction.",<br> msg = "You feel a terrible hunger grow within you."<br> cured = "Your terrible addiction seems to wane."<br> cures = { "Eat Ginseng / Eat Ferrum" },<br> madness = true,<br> tzantza = true,<br> accentato = true,<br> cadmus = false,<br> },<br> aeon = {<br> aff = "The aeon curse"<br> diagnose = "afflicted with the curse of the Aeon.",<br> msg = "Suddenly your movement through the time stream is slowed."<br> cured = "The curse of the Aeon wears off and you return to the normal timestream."<br> cures = { "Smoke Elm / Smoke Cinnabar", "Time" },<br> madness = false,<br> tzantza = false,<br> accentato = false,<br> cadmus = false,<br> },<br>...<br>}<br>If you want to attempt that, don't worry about hooking it up to anything, or when to run it. I can integrate it into WunderSys Foundation, along with tweaking small pieces, like maybe parsing out the "Eat Ginseng" into something more usable. I have some ideas about using this to make WunderSys update itself when new affs are added, removed, changed etc. This could also eliminate the need for a lot of permanent triggers, since this gives the typical added/cured/diagnose lines.
I can/will probably do something like that eventually, but if anyone wants to save me some time, feel free to give it a shot.
Anyway, I'll maintain and work through any issues anyone finds with this 1.3 beta, but otherwise I may be taking a short break from working on WunderSys to focus a bit more on some of my own offensive scripts for a bit. As always, if anyone finds any issues, please let me know!
I was also wanting to make a suggestion, or see if I am just missing it. But is their a way, or if you get time to, to make def look like wshow keepup, or wshow defup?
Easy enough to fix, but I thought I should let you know, just need to chop 'or tonic' out of the line. Is there a less illusion vulnerable way to track sip balance? I suppose we could validate the line against a timer and only act on it within a certain margin.
I managed to get alchemist educe salt balance into the tables and events, still trying to sort out how to work the ability into the curing logic.
The defense keepup table is not finnicky anymore, thank you!
Then once your gained sip balance trigger hits, check the timer and only update the balances table if the remaining time is within some small margin.
That blackout sip illusion could be dangerous. I guess the only way to avoid falling for that trick is to sip from the client side when under blackout, otherwise you'd lose track of your sips and possibly provide your opponent with an opening.
Does serverside continue to sip under blackout, does it tell you that you're sipping during blackout? I'll get my balance labels working, then I'll worry about blackout.
is there an ingame wundersys clan?
is there a list of wundersys generated events anywhere, things like 'system loaded' and 'class changed' that I can hook into for other scripts?
I found another initialization bug, disappears as soon as the script is clicked into, much like the defenses issue:
This time it looks like this script is loading up before the bals table is defined.
WunderSys v1.3
New release available at https://github.com/tynil/WunderSys/releasesNote that this is mostly just officially releasing all the changes that went into the previous beta, with a couple minor bug-fixes added on. See the release page for details.
@Shub I moved the Tables folder up above all the others, which should fix the Time Tracking initialization bug you mentioned above.
With respect to the clan, there technically is one, but it's owned by Nemutaur, and no one else in it has any special permissions beyond inducting and writing news. There are occasionally people in it, though no one really ever asks any questions on it. Ask for an invite, or if anyone wants to get something more useful going, I'd love to see more collaboration.
Documentation is definitely something WunderSys lacks right now. It looks like Nemutaur's original documentation isn't up anymore either. if anyone wants access to edit the wiki at https://github.com/tynil/WunderSys/wiki, let me know. I just barely have time to work on the code itself, let alone documentation.
Until we have better documentation, for WunderSys generated events at least, you can try looking through the code for where raiseEvent is called.
Anyway that's all for now. Hopefully this 1.3 version should be pretty stable. There were just a few minor fixes from the beta, but I otherwise haven't heard any complaints for the beta either. I'm probably going to continue taking a bit of a break for the time being. I just have too much other stuff going on right now. I'm trying to at least stay around a bit, so I don't completely disappear. And I'll probably get back to this eventually. Hopefully sooner than in another 3-4 years this time.
Any help, please?
