Having difficulties getting my lua to properly use Orpheus's Sash based on distance to target. I've tried the following in my

function precast(spell,action)

section.

if spell.english == "Leaden Salute" and
(spell.target.distance <8) then
equip({waist="Orpheus's Sash"})

without any results. Suggestions on how to properly deploy it? I'd prefer to alter my existing lua vs creating a new one.

Here you go;

sets.precast.WS['Leaden Salute'].Orph = set_combine(sets.precast.WS['Leaden Salute'], {
waist="Orpheus's Sash"})


function job_post_precast(spell, action, spellMap, eventArgs)
if spell.english == 'Leaden Salute' and spell.target.distance <5 then
equip(sets.precast.WS['Leaden Salute'].Orph)
end
end

your help was appreciated. However, here's what I got to work w/ my lua for both Orpheus's Sash AND Hachiryn-no-obi, with preference given to Orpheus's Sash.

----------------------------

if spell.english == 'Leaden Salute' and spell.target.distance <8 then
equipSet = set_combine(equipSet,{waist="Orpheus's Sash"})

elseif spell.english == 'Leaden Salute' and (world.weather_element == 'Dark' or world.day_element == 'Dark') then
add_to_chat(125,'weather mode')
equipSet = set_combine(equipSet,{waist="Hachirin-no-Obi"})
end

Hi Celebrindal, here's a nifty function you could add to improve. (specially for Dynamis-D)
Code
-- Function to get the current weather intensity: 0 for none, 1 for single weather, 2 for double weather.
function get_weather_intensity()
    return gearswap.res.weather[world.weather_id].intensity
end


So you can make a rule like:

if get_weather_intensity() == 2 then

so in double weather you could choose obi over orpheus as it yields more bonus. For leaden, you'd also have to make sure weather is dark..

world.weather_element will give you the weather element.


For example here's my enspell weather check:
Code
function EnspellCheck()

    -- Enspell matches double weather
    if Buff['En-Weather'] and get_weather_intensity() == 2 then
        equip(sets.midcast.Obi)
    -- Enspell matches day AND weather
    elseif Buff['En-Weather'] and Buff['En-Day'] then
        equip(sets.midcast.Obi)
    -- Enspell is there but doesnt match a double weather
    elseif Buff['Enspell'] then
        equip(sets.midcast.Orpheus)
    end 
end

I have one tailored for Corsair like so

Code
	-- Handles equipment modifications based of distance and spell weather/day alignment.
    if spell.type == 'WeaponSkill' and magical_ws:contains(spell.name) then
		-- If the spell element does not match either the weather or the day and there is less than 15 yalms between the caster and the target
		if spell.element ~= world.day_element and spell.element ~= world.weather_element then
			if spell.target.distance < (15 - spell.target.model_size) then
				equip { waist="Orpheus's Sash" }
			end
		-- If the element of a spell matches both the day and weather with a net intensity of at least 2
		elseif (spell.element == world.day_element and spell.element == world.weather_element)
				or (spell.element == world.weather_element and get_weather_intensity() == 2 and world.day_element ~= elements.strong_to[spell.element]) then
			equip { waist="Hachirin-no-Obi" }
		-- If the element of a non-helix spell matches either day or weather with a net intensity of 1.	
		elseif (spell.element == world.day_element or (spell.element == world.weather_element and get_weather_intensity() == 1)
				or (spell.element == world.weather_element and get_weather_intensity() == 2 and world.day_element == elements.strong_to[spell.element])) then
			if (spell.target.distance < (7 - spell.target.model_size)) then
				equip { waist="Orpheus's Sash" }
			else
				equip { waist="Hachirin-no-Obi" }
			end
		end	
	end



You can replace magical_ws section with Leaden and Wildfire if you don't have one of those. I made it factor in weather intensity so that it will consider when contrary conditions are in effect or when Sash will pull ahead of Obi in single-weather situations.

You may want to consider lowering the distance to around 7 or 8. I was testing it in Dyna and I had better luck with the Svetz [i didn't have hachirin coded yet] over the sash. at about 7 it was optimal.

I'm having trouble getting this to work while I have both double weather and a Storm active. It'll work if I have either:
Double weather
or
Single weather + Storm buff
but with both double weather and storm, it will return with Orpheus's Sash.
Code
function job_post_midcast(spell, action, spellMap, eventArgs)

	if blue_magic_maps.Magical:contains(spell.english) and (spell.element == world.weather_element and get_weather_intensity() == 2) or (spell.element == world.weather_element and spell.element == world.day_element) then
		equip{waist="Hachirin-no-Obi"}
	end
end

Any assistance would be appreciated.

This is the logic I have for Orpheus Sash in my AshitaCast <midmagic> set:

Code
<if at_distance="<5">
	<equip set="OrpheusSash" />
</if>
<elseif at_distance="<10" advanced="(%ad_element!=%e_weatherelement)&(%ad_element!=%e_dayelement)">
		<equip set="OrpheusSash" />
</elseif>
<elseif advanced="(%ad_element=%e_weatherelement)|(%ad_element=%e_dayelement)">
	<equip set="Hachirin-no-Obi" />
</elseif>
<else>
	<!-- This is not necessary, as NukeMB set has the default Nuking MAB+ belt -->
</else>
The pseudo-code is:

  • If my target is < 5.0 yalms away, use Orpheus Sash in place of existing waist.

  • Otherwise, if my target < 10 yalms away, with no element-day or element-weather to benefit from, use Sash in place of existing waist item.

  • Otherwise there is weather/day to benefit from and the target is > 10 yalms away), just use Hachirin-no-Obi instead.

  • Otherwise, (no weather to benefit from and greater than 10 yalms away), use existing waist item.


*Thorny helped optimize this logic, just FYI.

That is not needed anymore, you can do world.weather_intensity inside of gearswap. . .
Code
if world.weather_intensity == 2 then
    blah blah blah

You can replace magical_ws section with Leaden and Wildfire if you don't have one of those. I made it factor in weather intensity so that it will consider when contrary conditions are in effect or when Sash will pull ahead of Obi in single-weather situations.

anyone mind posting their full cor lua with a similar or just generally a working logic for sash + obi, because I can't get this to work in mine :/

You can just place the following line:
Code
if spell.type == 'WeaponSkill' and magical_ws:contains(spell.name) then


with:
Code
if spell.type == 'WeaponSkill' and (spell.english == 'Leaden Salute' or spell.english == 'Wildfire') then



Assuming you're using Mote as a base, you should have a Mapping file containing spell.element. The rest of the keywords are in base gearswap so it shouldn't have any problems. Don't forget it also is factoring in distance so you need to be within <15 range of the center of the mob for it to trigger.

Proper use is to obtain as many as you can through Neo Nyzul Isle campaign and unload them on AH for $200,000,000 each the way Altana intended.

@Nehalania - I've poured through the lua and cannot find reference to the sash. Where did you find it?

I think the 125 weather mode speaks specifically to Dark weather. If anyone knows the code to Fire weather or where I can find it, I'd appreciate it.

Hmmm.

attempt to index global 'spell' (a nil value).

The error is at line 9. Should I have changed that to something else?

Put line 1 at the beginning of the gearswap file. If you have any global variables I would put it under that.

Make sure to put the get_weather_intensity() function separate (not inside) from any other functions.

The large if statement goes at the end of your precast function (or post precast function)

That function is no longer necessary, Gearswap now has a world.weather_intensity variable that you can access. 1 for single 2 for double weather.

Oh that's very nice. So that means we can do something like this. I'll test it out
Code
elemental_ws = S{'Aeolian Edge', 'Leaden Salute', 'Wildfire','Earth Shot','Ice Shot','Water Shot','Fire Shot','Wind Shot','Thunder Shot'}
 
 
    if elemental_ws:contains(spell.name) then
        -- Matching double weather (w/o day conflict).
        if spell.element == world.weather_element and world.weather_intensity == 2 then
            equip({waist="Hachirin-no-Obi"})
        -- Target distance under 1.7 yalms.
        elseif spell.target.distance < (1.7 + spell.target.model_size) then
            equip({waist="Orpheus's Sash"})
        -- Matching day and weather.
        elseif spell.element == world.day_element and spell.element == world.weather_element then
            equip({waist="Hachirin-no-Obi"})
        -- Target distance under 8 yalms.
        elseif spell.target.distance < (8 + spell.target.model_size) then
            equip({waist="Orpheus's Sash"})
        -- Match day or weather.
        elseif spell.element == world.day_element or spell.element == world.weather_element then
            equip({waist="Hachirin-no-Obi"})
        end

Was looking for an optimized ruling for this so I just tested it myself.

Works fine except on the Day + Weather ruling (Dark Day with Voidstorm I). Everything was working fine except for when I got closer than 1.7 Yalm, it would switch to Orpheus on Sanguine Blade despite Obi on 2+ being stronger. Tested everything on Lv.-1 Wild Rabbits outside of South Sandy and locked the Hachirin just to make sure it was stronger on Dark Day + Void Storm than Orpheus Point Blank.

So will have to fiddle with it to keep it from swapping at super-close range if there are two or more weather/day sources present.

Edit:

Its doing it in Dynamis too, but the day passed so unless Voidstorm + Dyna weather counts? It looks like that 1.7 rule is overriding the Weather Rulings.

Commenting a month late because I completely forgot about this to be honest. Thanks for testing it and you're right Yandaime that it should be using Obi over Osash when either (Double Weather, Weather + Day, or Double Weather + Day) so I have updated it to the below.

As a caveat one thing to mention is it's not checking on the Double Weather check for if the Day's element is opposite to the spell.element. For example if I did Leaden on Lightsday with Double Dark weather that would only give me 10% boost with Hachi (which the below code would swap to). If I'm at 1.7 yalms from monster, the boost from Osash should be higher and it should swap to that.

Maybe someone who knows gearswap syntax can chime in with a property or function to solve for this.
Code
elemental_ws = S{'Aeolian Edge', 'Leaden Salute', 'Wildfire','Earth Shot','Ice Shot','Water Shot','Fire Shot','Wind Shot','Thunder Shot'}
  
  
    if elemental_ws:contains(spell.name) then
        -- Matching double weather (w/o day conflict).
        if spell.element == world.weather_element and world.weather_intensity == 2 then
            equip({waist="Hachirin-no-Obi"})
        -- Matching day and weather.
        elseif spell.element == world.day_element and spell.element == world.weather_element then
            equip({waist="Hachirin-no-Obi"})
        -- Target distance under 1.7 yalms.
        elseif spell.target.distance < (1.7 + spell.target.model_size) then
            equip({waist="Orpheus's Sash"})
        -- Target distance under 8 yalms.
        elseif spell.target.distance < (8 + spell.target.model_size) then
            equip({waist="Orpheus's Sash"})
        -- Match day or weather.
        elseif spell.element == world.day_element or spell.element == world.weather_element then
            equip({waist="Hachirin-no-Obi"})
        end
    end
