Montem System for Nexus - Now for all classes

Montem · December 2018

Disclaimer: This is mostly so people can learn nexus, I don't plan on doing crazy support for this and I'm busy doing stuff so I might not always be around to help diagnose, but I'll try. However, if you like the system feel free to tip Montem in game

I may or may not update this ever, but for those of you that are looking to code in Nexus, this should give you a good start.

This system is designed currently for Nanoseers (cause I am one), but you can look at the code and adopt it using the same principles I've used.

Instructions:

Use hsetup to setup the auto hunting. It will build the lists and variables necessary to make the system work.
Relog.

Use hshow to see what's on the list. It comes with a bunch of stuff just from me hunting up to level 45ish.

Use hlist to switch between priority list and room list.
Use hbreak to stop after one kill or attack everything in the room till clear.
Use hheal to decide if you want to heal on cooldown if < 80% health. (This works for all classes BUT Nanoseer, sorry nanoseers)
Use h<class> (nanoseer, beast, scoundrel, engineer, fury) to see what variables you have active that are class specific.

Use hadd to add something to the list and hremove to remove something.

hup and hdown to move something up or down the list.

Use hsave to save a backup of your list and hload to load it.

Ctrl + = will enable or disable auto killing and targeting

numpad 0 will do the appropriate hunting attack.

Nanoseer stuff:

hmulti, hfreeze, hfrenzy, and hdelay will trigger auto attacks to use those attacks. You will need to enable these for the System to use them.

Fury stuff:
hberserk will use berserk when it can.
hfever will start combat with fever.
Period key (.) on numpad will start combat with inferno (be careful with this is hits everyone, including players, in room)

Beast stuff:
Just aliases: con: Contingency, oc Overclock.

Engineer stuff:
Nothing, engineer hunting is pretty simple

Scoundrel stuff:
hambush - enable use of ambush
hrapidfire - enable use of rapidfire
Alias rip - make ripper

Auto hunting goes in this order for Nanoseer:

Frenzy, delay, multi, freeze

It will reapply freeze when needed, but not delay, or frenzy. It will reapply multi if the target health is above 40%.

This is not just a hunting system (although it mostly is at the moment), it also has some other nice things:

MSys.log will do a display_notice except will convert objects and arrays and display all items in it, similar to Mudlet thing. (It's not quite as robust but it's okay)

MSys.alert(text, color, color) will do cool alert boxes similar to svo from mudlet.

js <code> will run javascript and send back the return value, similar to lua from mudlet.

c<direction> will crash whatever direction and turn auto off

There are some aliases for Spaceships in Spaceship folder

This also redirects some chat and stuff in the Generic - Chat folder, you might want to modify.

It'll add up the damage you do in a fight and tell you - more useful for group hunting to compare with others.
Check all the folders for other aliases.

I think that's pretty much it. If things get wonky, like after you die just type onLoad in your command bar to reload the client.

Thanks so much for posting this; I'm a complete novice to scripting in Nexus, so this helps tremendously (also it's made my low level bashing on my nanoseer a thousand times faster and less death-filled, because prior to using this I was doing everything manually. My pathetic human fingers couldn't keep up!)

Aurelius · December 2018

This is fantastic, thank you!

Ultima · December 2018

This is exactly what I needed. I am used to Mudlet but decided to give nexus a try since I love the way everything is laid out. One quick question though. I keep getting the message

Error in Function [onGMCP]:
ReferenceError: MSys is not defined

How do you fix this?

When are you getting this? It says there's something wrong in the onGMCP function but I'm not sure what would cause it, as MSys should be global.

Poet · December 2018

If you loaded up the system and didn't restart the game, type onLoad into the command line to set all the variables.

Ultima · December 2018

Oh yep, restarting the game fixed it. Thanks!

Montem · January 2019

Updated the system for all classes. LIke I said before this is mostly for learning and should give you a good idea on how to do lots of things with Nexus. System will auto-detect what class you are and enable the appropriate group. Have fun!

Cayne · January 2019

I re-downloaded your package and it seems to be the same as your last one.

Montem · January 2019

No folders for each class?

Cayne · January 2019

Nope.

Just in case, I removed the package, saved, closed the session, reopened, and reloaded the new package.

I am still only seeing the Nanoseer folder.

Good call, I've got it added.

Cayne · January 2019

That one works. Thanks

Sairys · January 2019

Just trying it out with nano. Might have the wrong version but I ran a couple things.

The trigger for multistrike needed to be updated, it's the old one atm. This one seems to be fine for me ^The nanites disperse, no longer striking at (.*)\.$
Frenzy is set to false at the end of combat and multistrike isn't, reversing that has helped me out
The trigger for frenzy being on doesn't have the full line if it's already up, so it gets stuck if you've put frenzy up manually or if it's still up from your last fight. Changed to this and I seem to be good. ^A dark wave of madness rolls through your thoughts.*$|^You have already descended into a frenzy; to draw more of the Conquerer into your thoughts would utterly destroy your mind!$
hnano references rage not frenzy, leading to an "undefined" message when using it.

Montem · January 2019

Thanks for fixing it up. The nano stuff is the oldest at this point and I tried to add a few things without testing so I'm glad you got it figured out.

Okay I updated all this in my current version so it'll all be in the next release. Thanks @Sairys. New version is in signature.

Doxsis · January 2019

How could i setup interrupts without breaking the system?

I got a workaround working, but it isn't pretty at all. It also only seems to work about 70% of the time and I have no idea why.

Montem · January 2019

I don't have a lot of experience with the visual scripting but it looks like that should work. The best solution would be to add it into the system itself, in the hunting attack. My new update has this for Fury, but not any other class. Maybe you could look at how I do it there and modify for best?

Doxsis · January 2019

@Montem

Is it the Hfever Toggle alias and the Fever On trigger I should be replicating?

Montem · January 2019

It's the MSys.interrupt variable
Part is in the fever on I believe.

Kido · January 2019

Anybody else running into this? Stim will be able to go again but the system will sneak in 1-2 more attacks before actually stimming, which unfortunately can be deadly! Any ideas for fixes? Thanks! System is great otherwise

Temporarily patched this up by adding CQ and STIM to the trigger of when I can stim again!

Montem · January 2019

That'd do it. It was checking when it queued the attack if it should heal probably.

Vielar · January 2019

Here's a quick check you can add to your healing ability ready again trigger (i.e.: "Your HUD indicates that you may use your life support system once again.") to queue up a heal if needed:

var healthpercent = (MSys.health/MSys.maxHealth*100).toFixed(2);

if (MSys.health/MSys.maxHealth < .8) {
    display_notice("Health: " + healthpercent + "% (" + MSys.health + "/"+ MSys.maxHealth + ") Queuing suit support", "white", "red")
    send_command("SUIT SUPPORT")
} else
{
    display_notice("Health: " + healthpercent + "% (" + MSys.health + "/"+ MSys.maxHealth + ") No need to heal", "white", "green")
}

Obviously change "SUIT SUPPORT" to your class healing ability, and change the .8 if you want a different healing threshold.

It'll give you helpful color-coded echoes to let you know what's going on, too:

Code's probably messy because I don't know what I'm doing, but it works

Michlistus · January 2019

Hi, I was looking over your system to sort of help further my knowledge of how Nexus works (and I'm learning JS at the same time - I come from a Python background) and I had a question. I am sort of confused how this works: MSys.(whatever).

How did you turn your package name into a method that you can set variables with? Is this a function Nexus uses? So I could theoretically create a package called "EhdeSys" and set variables using: "EhdeSys.variable = value"? That brings me to my second question: what is the difference between setting a variable with "EhdeSys.variable = value" and "set_variable("variable", "value")"?

(sorry I don't know how to drop code blocks or screenshots on this forum)

if (get_variable('matchList')) {

MSys.matchList = false

set_variable('matchList', false)

MSys.log('Will match room listing', 'white')

} else {

MSys.matchList = true

set_variable('matchList', true)

MSys.log('Will match priority listing', 'white')

}

Montem · January 2019

Check how MSys is set in the onload. That makes it a global object. Then I refer to the object in other places. That object is created when the game is launched, with it's default values. Set_variable and get_variable are Nexus specific functions that let you store variables that persist through closing and opening the game. I'm assuming they are stored on IRE servers or they are magic.

Poet · January 2019

The set_ and get_ variables are just like the @ variables. If you click on the variables tab in settings you can see them. They can be referenced in JS with the get and set functions or by using the @ in the simplified scripting, or even typed in directly as @my_health or whatever.

Awesome, that makes a lot more sense. I wasn't understanding how you were able to make a global object like that. I had been wondering how it applies to function calling because I wasn't sure how to call an function outside of run_function(), but even then, I was confused how you create a function in the first place that allows you to pass paramaters. The simple scripting "call a function" option doesn't necessarily allow you to pass in variables unless I don't really understand it correctly. This global object is what I have been trying to figure out for a while. Thanks!

Xiru · January 2019

I have finally downloaded this system and bashing just became so much better, as I can do a lot more while that's what I'm doing.

THANK YOU.

edit: outta curiousity, why is Nano the one class without an autoheal?

Howdy, Stranger!
