Additional Script Uses
In addition to regular menu-or-CLI-selectable scripts and relay override scripts, you can also use a script for a few other situations. These situations are listed below, along with the preference that you can set a script name to (in parentheses).
- Between Battle (betweenBattleScript)
- Executed (before?) every combat.
- Buy (buyScript)
- Executed when / how?
- Chatbot (chatbotScript)
- This works how?
- Counters (counterScript)
- Again, don't understand.
- Login (loginScript)
- This script is immediately executed once your character is logged in.
- Logout (logoutScript)
- This script is executed right before logging out. Not that an abort() in the script won't stop a logout unless the logout was called in (specific ways, please list).
- Planting (plantingScript)
- Halp!
- Post-Ascension (postAscensionScript)
- Executed at once when your character starts a new ascension.
- Pre-Ascension (preAscensionScript)
- Executed right before entering Valhalla.
- Recovery (recoveryScript)
- Executed whenever mafia would recover your HP / MP. (Does this effect the whole negative status effects handling?) This is what you set Bale's "Universal_recovery.ash" to.
A little CLI help
Two CLI commands are of great use to ASH scripters:
- ashref allows one to get a list of ASH functions
- ash or ashq allows one to run ASH directly on the CLI.
Attention KoLmafia Experts!
We need your help; some details of this function's operation are unknown or unclear.
The following specific question has been raised:
- Where are all the other places a script can be used? Help plox.
