	''' Important note:''' In the latest versions of ~~kolMafia~~ (> 14.0), all repetitive actions are now converted into Combat Macros. This has a few advantages and disadvantages. You will no longer skip rounds; the result of each and every round is now displayed for you. Entering a combat macro is a bit easier on the server since it only takes a single server action. However, you have to scroll to the very bottom to see the final round results (or click the link) which can be very irritating if the combat is several rounds long. Plus, you can no longer tell if combat is going poorly and quickly 'abort' when auto-adventuring. (Best example of this is against a physical immune where you can see the rounds dragging on as you do 1 point per round). At this time, I don't know if there is any option of using the conventional method.
