Lich -- 1030 Script

[Danical]

So, I'm trying to write a script that does open 1030 and loots the number of times given the number of death lines. It seems to be a bit wonky and I really can't figure out why for the life of me. Double loots when shouldn't and doesn't exit.

The dull golden nimbus surrounding a triton radical suddenly begins to glow brightly and then disappears.

Warding failed!
A triton radical reels under the force of the sonic vibrations!
Sound waves disrupt for 106 damage!
... 90 points of damage!
The triton radical's shoulder joint explodes, severing shield arm.

Warding failed!
A siren reels under the force of the sonic vibrations!
Sound waves disrupt for 104 damage!
... 95 points of damage!
The siren's neck explodes launching her head into the air.
The siren gives a plaintive wail before she slumps to her side and dies.
The brilliant luminescence fades from around a siren.

The silvery luminescence fades from around a siren.

loot = 0
while true
	put "prep 1030"
	put "cast"
	line = waitfor("Roundtime", "Your armor prevents the song from working correctly", "wait (1|2|3)", "Warding failed")
	if line =~ /Your armor prevents the song from working correctly/
		next
	elsif line =~ /wait/
		sleep 1
		next
	elsif line =~ /Warding failed/i
		until (kills = matchfindexact("twitching ?", "? goes still", "begins to dissolve ?", "gurgling ?", "? dies", "emits ? hollow scream")) == "Roundtime"
			if kills
				loot += 1
				echo kills
				echo loot
			else
				exit
			end
		end
		while loot > 0
			put "loot"
			loot -= 1
			echo loot
		end
		exit
	else
		exit
	end
end

I've also tried using "if kills.to_i == 0" instead of "if kills" but I get similar results. Any advice?

You need to add the string, "Sing ?" to your "until kills = matchfindexact() == 'Roundtime'" line. It isn't matching the roundtime and is therefore stuck in the matchfind, hence, no looting.

loot = 0
while true
	put "prep 1030"
	put "cast"
	line = waitfor("Roundtime", "Your armor prevents the song from working correctly", "wait (1|2|3)", "Warding failed")
	if line =~ /Your armor prevents the song from working correctly/
		next
	elsif line =~ /wait/
		sleep 1
		next
	elsif line =~ /Warding failed/i
		until (kills = matchfindexact("twitching ?", "? goes still", "begins to dissolve ?", "gurgling ?", "? dies", "emits ? hollow scream", "Sing ?")) == "Roundtime"
			if kills
				loot += 1
				echo kills
				echo loot
			else
				exit
			end
		end
		while loot > 0
			put "loot"
			loot -= 1
			echo loot
		end
		exit
	else
		exit
	end
end

And, now that I think about it... the kills variable is completely superfluous. You can abbreviate that until loop to just this:

until matchfindexact("twitching ?", "? goes still", "begins to dissolve ?", "gurgling ?", "? dies", "emits ? hollow scream", "Sing ?") == "Roundtime"
	loot += 1
end

cool, I changed the code around but I can't seem to get the bugger to exit . . . I've tried putting the exit line in a number of places; no dice.

loot = 0
while true
	put "prep 1030"
	put "cast"
	line = waitfor("Roundtime", "Your armor prevents the song from working correctly", "wait (1|2|3)", "Warding failed")
	if line =~ /Your armor prevents the song from working correctly/
		next
	elsif line =~ /wait/
		sleep 1
		next
	elsif line =~ /Warding failed/i
		until matchfindexact("twitching ?", "? goes still", "begins to dissolve ?", "gurgling ?", "? dies", "emits ? hollow scream", "Sing ?") == "Roundtime"
			loot += 1
			while loot > 1
				put "loot"
				loot -= 1
			end
		end
		exit
	else
		exit
	end
end
