Damage Calculator - Milestone, still need help though :)
 
So I thank a lot of you for bearing with me, I've finally reached a milestone with the damage calculator. Scroll past the two code blocks to find out the purpose of this post.

Some output:
Code:

So, that's all the stuff in the script, and what it outputs. But I'm far from done, which is why this is only a milestone, not the end. So, the following is what I need help with, if you're interested or just want to help:

1) I need to tighten up this script. I've worked hard on it, and have already had help from many of the Gurus, but I know there must be plenty of areas where I could tighten it up. Make it cleaner, more efficient, etc...

2) I have a list of features of the completed damage calculator in another post, but I will post them here:
- Damage broken down by all participants in the match, an example would be, say, two players: Throxten and Phrunk. Phrunk also has a spirit he can summon, along with some other mobs. So, the total battle has... Throxten, Phrunk, Spirit, Great Sphinx and Criosphinx. I want the amount of damage that each does, and the amount of damage each takes.
- Number of hits. Easy enough to count really, if they attack and they don't miss, then they've hit. I need this for...
- Average Damage, calculated on the number of hits in the fight by the total damage in the fight
- Damage Dealt and Taken (and maybe even averages) based on the attack_type. For instance, How much damage Throxten did with chop and lightning, and how much damage Phrunk took from chop, how much the spirit took from chop. As well as how much damage Phrunk did with roundhouse, how much the spirit did with pierce and how much Throxten took from roundhouse and pierce.

I'm sorry if it's confusing, but I hope you get the idea. The final table would be a neat, organized output report of all of these damage break downs.

I can try to get you any information you need. Though, if you are truely interested, I encourage you to make a character in the game and level it up a little so that you can get it to a decent point for testing. If you decide to do that, and need help in the game, send me a PM and I'll see what I can do. I thank you all for your help and hope that you will bear with me and continue in friendly helpfulness to complete this large project, and learning experience.

%4 is you. So why isn't it adding the damage in?

because %4 actually equals "you." I believe. Someone with better regex knowledge can confirm.

Yup, it does. No clue why I have the parentheses encapsulating the period. I checked for that too, and missed it. Thanks.

I'm going to try this pattern, may or may not work:

Code:

^(?>\[(?: \w+){1,4} \] )?((?>[\w'-]+ ){1,5})(@attack_type) (?>does )?(@damage_type) (?>things to )?(?>a |the )?([\w'-]+( )?){1,5}[ !.]


My issue is that there's sometimes space between the words, but if there's not, it ends on a period, so space isn't always a given.

It worked, thanks for pointing that out, Toxic. Now I'm on to the other tasks at hand, which will likely require the patience and attention of the Gurus.

An interesting development:

A pattern such as:

an armored skeleton has some small wounds and bruises.

doesn't match

Code:

(?:a |the |an )?(?>[\w'-]+ ){1,5}(?:has|is in|looks) (?:excellent condition|a few scratches|some small wounds and bruises|quite a few wounds|some big nasty wounds and scratches|pretty hurt|awful condition)\.

^(?:a |the |an )?(?>[\w'-]+ ){1,5}(?:has|is in|looks) (?:@condition)\.


Now, it does match in regex coach, but not in CMUD. As you can see by the previous outputs, it matches other conditions just fine. But I've noticed it consistently failing here, and I'm not sure what to make of it.

Edit:
note - the pearl regex puts a square character before small wounds and bruises, I don't know why.



Also, is there a way to view the pearl regex without a full package screen?

It matches when I try it. I pasted your top pattern into a new trigger, checked the regex box, and pasted your example text into the test box. So it's a problem with your code, not with the pattern.

EDIT: Hmm, that's interesting. I have no idea what could be causing that, looks like a bug unless you've got some freaky-ass character in your variable.

Code:

#var condition {excellent condition|a few scratches|some small wounds and bruises|quite a few wounds|some big nasty wounds and scratches|pretty hurt|awful condition} _nodef {General Variables|Damage Calculator}


Is the variable.

I'm getting exactly the same result here. I'm going to post a new thread about this problem - it's probably related to the other list-related bugs and been fixed in 2.27 already, but it's best to be sure.

For the record, I am using a variable list in my regex matching trigger line and I also have a square character infront of the first item in that variable list. I have to use regex alternation to account for whatever follows the square character.

Yeah, it seems to be a bug. Fang made a post for it.

Chamenas you know how to accumulate the damages and how to use counters right?

If %1 did 85 damage to %4, then you obviously know how much damage %1 did and how much %4 took.

Take this part and change it around:

Code:
#IF (%1="Your ") {
    round_dmg=@round_dmg+$Dmg
  }
#IF (%4="you") {
  round_dmgu=@round_dmgu+$Dmg
  }


Just use database records and you won't need the IF statements, since you are tracking everyone and their brother. This will store the damages for each round and keep tallying the number of hits for each person including you.

Code:

#ADDKEY RDmgGiven {%1} {%eval( %db( @RDmgGiven, %1) + $Dmg)}
#ADDKEY RDmgTaken {%4} {%eval( %db( @RDmgTaken, %4) + $Dmg)}
#ADDKEY Hits {%1} {%eval( %db( @Hits, %1) + 1)}


For totals..

Code:

#LOOPDB @RDmgGiven {#ADDKEY TDmgGiven {%key} {%eval( %db( @TDmgGiven, %key) + %val)}}
#LOOPDB @RDmgTaken {#ADDKEY TDmgTaken {%key} {%eval( %db( @TDmgTaken, %key) + %val)}}



There you go now you can store the damages given and taken for each round for like 20 people including yourself. Then you can get the totals for all of them at once too. Obviously you should be able to figure out how to get averages out of this. This should get you started. I'm sure someone else has a better way of doing it but at least you should be able to figure out some things.

Quote:
Damage Dealt and Taken (and maybe even averages) based on the attack_type. For instance, How much damage Throxten did with chop and lightning, and how much damage Phrunk took from chop, how much the spirit took from chop. As well as how much damage Phrunk did with roundhouse, how much the spirit did with pierce and how much Throxten took from roundhouse and pierce.


I don't remember that other script you showed, which you based this on, having this did it?

Well anyway...someone else can figure it out. I'm going to bed. lol

hahaha, thanks Oldguy. I'll be busy the next couple of days so implementing it will be slow but it looks like you gave me a lot to work with. The only thing I worry about is multiple things of the same name, but I suppose I should just keep my testing to singular things for now? I'm assuming the addkeys only create new ones with new instances, and otherwise just update the current one, thus accounting for being able to deal with multiple amounts and yet update existing?
