Magatama : a Modern Mag Planner/Calculator [ BETA 9 ]

[Aether89]

Hi i would like to present to all of you "Magatama : a Modern Mag Planner"

 

I am currently Looking for any willing person to help me by testing it and giving me feedback on it.

 

 

To be honest it would not exist without Mag Farm Version 0.9.7r2 by James Baxter

 

Why did i start working on it well i had some personal issue with Mag Farm.

 

1. I had problem with the drop-down list not showing their content, it has since resolved itself
2. The user interface is in my opinion somewhat outdated and clunky.
3. Can't Update the Feeding Chart.
4. No Description for the Photon Blast
5. Lack of the Blue Burst Mag Cells.
6. Can't save the current Session for later use, only Export History.

 

[ Current Features ]

 

• Full Drop-Down list and pictures for all Mags.
• No "Please choose a character class." and/or "Please choose a section ID" if none are selected a Bluefull HUmar will be assumed as the current selection, can be changed in the settings.
• Saving the Current Data
• Importing Previous Data
• Export the content of Output
• Easy to know how many of each items have been feed to the mag, and also how many have been feed since the Mag evolved.

It's like super early in the morning where I am, but I'll try and give it a go tommorow or something, I'll see if I can get it to break with some obscure cases of mag evolutions n stuff.

Thank you for taking the time to post it on here, I'm sure there are many people that will be interested to check it out.

[Soly]

Hope you don't mind, edited the whole topic to remove the font color which (I assume broke when you copy/pasted it and) doesn't look right in the dark themes.

[thelionorion]

I will gladly help out once I get home later  today :3

[Fyrewolf5]

So I did a lot of playing around with it just now, trying out alot of edge cases for mag evolutions. Most of it is pretty solid, though I did find one evolution that just didn't work at all, and one overlooked set of evolutions. Also on a different note, every first time I hit undo the interface would not visually update, I often had to hit it twice to see any changes (happened both from menu and with hotkey). I might play around with the program some more later on.

This one didn't work (note: Dex>=Mind>=Pow is tested by using several sets of identical numbers for those three stats, such as 41def 13pow 13dex 13mind, etc.)
Ranger
lvl50+
Dex>=Mind>=Pow - Group A IDs did not change to Kama (did not ever change mag, tried many different levels of equal stat numbers and thus different mags, naga, kumara, maybe another one I forgot, and even from lvl35 mitra). Group B IDs worked properly (changed to Varaha).

The overlooked evolution formulas are the specific = evolutions that exist i.e. Pow=Dex>Mind (25pow=25dex>0 mind, or 25Pow=15dex>10mind, etc.) on Force Group A IDs becomes Naga. These may be seemingly innocuous evolutions, but this example in particular is the only way to get a power naga in order to make a 0mind panzer tail mag, so they do have their uses.

Hu
50+
dex=mind>pow A did not change to Varaha, B did not change to Kama

Ra
50+
pow=mind>dex A did not change to Kama, B did not change to Varaha

Fo
50+
pow=dex>mind A did not change to Naga, B did not change to Kumara



shorthand notes of testing

 

hunter

dex=mind>pow A did not change to Varaha, B did not change to Kama

Ramar

dex>=mind>=pow  - Group A did not change to Kama, Group B is OK

This makes me want to go back and restart my project.  Good job, can't wait to see the finished version!

[thelionorion]

Only thing I can't do with it so far is figure out how to make the mag have 0def

I don't think it was developed with that in mind, as he's from ephinea (which I don't think has PPP on it).

That makes sense. Thank you :3

[Aether89]

@Soly i dont mind you edited the topic to remove the font color.

@Fyrewolf5 i will take a look into these issue :).

-------

I have one question what is PPP and here a mag can have a DEF lower than 5? if so i will change it it no biggie to do.

 

So up to the fixes and continue implementing the under the hood change to how mag are identified in the program, better for translation and to make possible to change the Ephinea Heart of YN-1107 to whatever you call the mag cell to evolve a Mag into a Elenor.

 

One thing i wont do is personally change the Feeding Tables if you have any issue with it i can teach how to update it.

PPP is a quest, Power Plant Plight, which can reward a mag with 0 defense. We also often have mag events where people make custom mags, so 0defense is a popular option to squeeze out a few extra points for power/mind/dex. Also, the Elenor mag cell is called "Ashura" on this server.

 @Fyrewolf5 I tried the evolution you told about and only the dex>=mind>=pow Group A for the Ramar didn't work, it was a typo on my part in Magatama\Data\Evolution\RA_Stage03.xml

How to fix

Spoiler

 

1. Open Magatama\Data\Evolution\RA_Stage03.xml
2. Find Kamaa
3. replace Kamaa to Kama

So i believe that they may have been an issue with the download as you may not have the correct version 7 even if the link says so. will find another web host for the files, as it also caused some issue.

Alright, I did that typo fix and a single test to see if it works, and the evolution seems to be fine now. The file I downloaded says it's MagatamaBeta7.7z

I'm still having issues with the "undo" feature though. The first time I hit undo, nothing appears to happen. The second time I hit undo, sometimes it undoes one action, sometimes it undoes more than one action; this happens especially if I try to repeat the undone action manually (without using redo), and then hit undo again, sometimes it undoes two or more actions, sometimes even 3 or 4; I was able to get as high as 6 actions undone at once (i.e. feed food for levelup, first undo does nothing, second undo does one action, feed food again for levelup, first undo does nothing, second undo does multiple actions). It appears to follow a strange pattern, where every other time it undoes one action, but every other time it undoes 2+ actions in a pattern (kind of like a 1, 2, 1, 3, 1, 4, 1, 2, 1, 5, 1, 2, 1, 3, 1, 6, 1, 2, 1, 3, etc. something like that, too lazy to do more and actually record it).

[Aether89]

Okay i updated most of the link to point to my new GitHub repository, with the exception of the Interface preview. 

@Fyrewolf5 lets me take a guess when it erase three action it is  something like this.

Monomate x3
--- Level UP --- (6)
------------------------------------------ [1]

that get erased if yes, it work as intended because they are all linked together

1. cycle is removed because 3 items weren't feed to the mag 
2. The Level UP is removed because the level up conditions aren't met anymore
3. The monomate is removed because you undid it.

basically you remove the last item feed not the other action who are linked to the item itself.

[orgodemir]

This looks very cool.

I'll take this moment to tell people to not use the one I made at that's at sandrenyl.com, because it does not work. Use the one in this topic. It does work.

 

That being said, after playing with it a bit, unless I just can't find it, it'd be nice to have a place where it shows the feeding chart or maybe like, when you hover or right click on an item, show how it exactly affects the stats.
