Maximize
Function Syntax
boolean maximize(string expression ,string simulate )
boolean maximize(string expression ,int max_price ,int price_level ,string simulate )
- expression is the list of modifiers to maximize for.
- max_price limits how much meat will be spent on maximization.
- price_level controls checking the mall and affects return value.
- simulate will not equip gear if false.
This command will run the modifier maximizer and return true if successful. If a minimum is applied to a modifier and that minimum could not be accomplished (such as 4 clownosity) then it will return false.
This function will set _spec so that it can be checked with numeric_modifier(). That is the main purpose of using a true value for simulate.
If max_price is <= 0, it will use the preference autoBuyPriceLimit, or available meat, whichever is lower. Otherwise, that's the value it's considering as the max value for new items.
If price_level is greater than 0, Mall price is considered. If price_level is 2, always consider mall price. If price_level is 1, only consider it if there isn't another way. Also, if price_level is 0 or less, validateItem always returns true.
CLI Equivalent
The CLI command command "maximize" will automatically change equipment as if the final parameter was false.
